๐ต โA Voice from Heavenโ: Courtney Hadwin and Her Mother Ann-Marie Release a Never-Before-Heard MotherโDaughter Duet โ A Song That Brings Them Together Again, Beyond Time and Life
The music world has witnessed a moment unlike any other โ a hauntingly beautiful reunion between voice, memory, and love. For the first time ever, Courtney Hadwin, the powerhouse voice who stunned the world on Americaโs Got Talent, has released a never-before-heard duet with her mother, Ann-Marie Hadwin. The song, titled โYouโre Still Here,โ is more than just music โ itโs a message that transcends time, distance, and even life itself.

The story of this song began years ago, in the small English village where Courtney grew up. Long before the world knew her as the wild-haired teen who electrified audiences with her raspy voice and fearless energy, she was just a young girl singing beside her mother in their living room. Ann-Marie was the first person to notice her daughterโs gift โ the way her voice carried emotion far beyond her age, the way she sang as if her heart were on fire.
According to family friends, the two often sang together late into the night โ harmonizing to classic soul records, improvising verses, and recording their duets on an old home microphone. Those early recordings became a time capsule of love and music โ a bond between mother and daughter preserved in sound.
Years later, after Courtneyโs rise to fame, those recordings were thought to be lost forever. But earlier this year, while organizing old equipment for a documentary project, a sound engineer discovered several unreleased files labeled simply โMum + Cโ. Among them was the track now known as โYouโre Still Here.โ
From the very first note, the song is a revelation. Courtneyโs unmistakable, gritty tone โ filled with fire, pain, and soul โ blends perfectly with Ann-Marieโs warm, comforting voice. Together, they create something that feels both fragile and eternal. Itโs not the kind of polished, over-produced sound youโd expect from a major release โ itโs raw, unfiltered, and real. You can almost hear the laughter between takes, the breath caught between emotions, the love that lingers in every line.
Lyrically, โYouโre Still Hereโ feels like a love letter across time. It speaks of loss, remembrance, and the invisible bond that connects hearts even after separation. The chorus โ โYouโre still here, I can feel you in the silence / Youโre still near, in every song, in every momentโ โ has already moved thousands of fans to tears.
When Courtney shared a short teaser of the track on her social media, fans flooded the comments with messages of love and support. โThis broke me,โ one wrote. โYou can hear every ounce of her heart in this song.โ Another commented, โItโs like theyโre singing to each other across heaven โ pure magic.โ

For Courtney, who has often spoken about her familyโs unwavering support, this release represents something deeply personal. โEverything I am began with my mum,โ she shared in a brief post. โShe taught me that music isnโt about perfection โ itโs about feeling. This song is our story.โ
Ann-Marie, a lifelong lover of music though not a professional performer, once said in an interview years ago that she never imagined her daughterโs voice would take her so far. โWhen she sang as a little girl, the whole room stopped. It wasnโt about fame; it was just about truth.โ
That truth โ simple, pure, and eternal โ is what โYouโre Still Hereโ captures so perfectly. Itโs a conversation between two hearts, echoing through melody rather than words.
Critics have already begun calling the track one of the most emotionally resonant releases of the year. Rolling Stone UK described it as โa haunting testament to love that lingers beyond time.โ The Guardian wrote, โThis is not just a song โ itโs a prayer sung in harmony by two souls who share one heartbeat.โ
Listeners from around the world have been sharing their own stories in response โ of mothers and daughters who sang together, of families who found strength through music, of love that endures even in silence. Itโs proof that โYouโre Still Hereโ isnโt only about Courtney and Ann-Marie; itโs about all of us โ about the people we love, the memories we hold, and the songs that keep them alive.

As the final notes fade, Courtneyโs voice whispers one last line: โLove never leaves โ it only changes its sound.โ And in that moment, itโs impossible not to feel the truth of it.
For Courtney and her mother, โYouโre Still Hereโ is more than a rediscovered recording. Itโs a bridge โ between past and present, between earth and heaven. A reminder that some connections, no matter how fragile, are too strong to ever be broken.
And for the rest of us, itโs a gift โ a melody from the heart of a daughter to her mother, and from a mother to the world.
Through โYouโre Still Here,โ Courtney and Ann-Marie Hadwin remind us that love โ once sung โ never fades. It only finds new ways to be heard.
