Susan Boyle has admitted she expects a backlash from avid John Lennon and Pink Floyd fans.
The former star of Britain's Got Talent has recorded a version of the Beatles' legend's iconic hit 'Imagine' and the rocker group's 'Wish You Were Here' for new album 'Hope', and admits that creating her own versions of the tracks is a "risk".
Speaking to Scotland's Herald newspaper she said: "I hope I have done them justice in my own way.
"John Lennon's 'Imagine' was one of the hardest to record, not because of the music or the vocals but because I wanted to do his song justice. Of course the die-hard Lennon fans will probably criticise but I hope that people like my personal take on the song."
Other covers on the LP include Simon And Garfunkel's 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' and 'Angel', originally by Sarah McLachlan.
Susan continued: "I themed this album around inspiration and hope because those are two elements we all need in our life to drive us forward and inspire us to go out and capture our dreams - they worked for me."
The album is released on November 24.
