The Struts have released a new version of their hit single, “Could Have Been Me,” featuring guitar legend Brian May. The updated track includes a fiery guitar solo from May and an extended outro.
Frontman Luke Spiller shared, “This song is all about seizing your dreams and living life to the fullest, no matter the obstacles. It’s a powerful anthem that reminds us to chase what sets our souls on fire.” He added, “Collaborating with Brian on this track is a dream come true. I can’t wait for everyone to feel the energy and inspiration behind it. Every day is a gift, and we should celebrate them together!”
Brian May expressed his excitement, saying, “Working with Luke and The Struts has been a joyous journey for me. I became obsessed with this great song after hearing the original and felt the urge to put my spin on it! It carries a positive message for rebellious kids of all ages. Together, WE ROCK!”
