The song was originally released in 1990 and the lines "Words are very unnecessary/ They can only do harm" have struck a chord with the Scottish singer.

She told The Rolling Stone that those lyrics spoke to her:

"The melody of the song is just beautiful but really that lyric sounds like it will touch so many people in the way it touched me." 

'Someone To Watch Over Me' is to be released on November 1 and it will include covers of Joni Mitchell's 'Both Sides Now' and Tears For Fears' 'Mad World'.

Check out Depeche Mode's version of 'Enjoy The Silence' and Susan Boyle performing the album track, 'You Have To Be There':

For Someone To Watch Over Me, Boyle reunited with well-known British songwriter/record producer Steve Mac, who produced her second album, The Gift. Together they have created a sensational and contemporary album that will span the generations.

In her now-trademark style, Boyle gives her interpretations to pop classics once again on her new album. For Someone To Watch Over Me, Susan fearlessly takes on iconic songs such as "Unchained Melody" and "Both Sides Now," giving them a new identity. And, of course, there is her rendering of the title cut, a George and Ira Gershwin song that was written in the 1920s but sounds contemporary when sung by Boyle.

The album also includes original material: "This Will Be The Year" by Emeli Sande and Naughty Boy with Josh Kear and "Return" by Steve Mac and Wayne Hector.

Boyle says her song choices for the album were influenced by fans who related to her own life story and have shared their histories with her. "There are certain songs that I liked that resonated with the letters that people had written and sent to me," she said. "I knew that's what my record needed to be about. They wrote about grief, love, happy and sad times; it was all deeply moving and the songs I selected mirror their emotions and life experiences."

Boyle amassed her huge fan base after she sang a single song ("I Dreamed A Dream" from Les Miserables) on "Britain's Got Talent" in 2009; within 24 hours, her performance was being watched by millions on YouTube, and then millions more on American network news programs that picked up on her remarkable Cinderella story.

I Dreamed a Dream remains the UK's best-selling debut album of all time, and sold more than 700,000 copies in the first week of release in the U.S. To date, her two albums have sold over 14 million copies and reached Number One in over 30 countries.

A version of Tears for Fears' 'Mad World' will also feature on the Blackburn-born singer's new album which is scheduled for release on November 7.

Boyle's version of the Depeche Mode track have already leaked online. 

The fifty-year-old's upcoming album will also feature new tracks, one has been written by fellow Scottish singer, Emeli Sandé, a song called 'This Will be The Year'. Sandé referred to having the song recorded by Boyle as "probably my proudest moment."

Boyle's mezzo-soprano voice totally surprised the world when she appeared on Britain's Got Talent in April 2009, resulting in her debut album, 'I Dreamed a Dream' automatically hitting the number one spot globally a few months later.

Her audition video has been viewed on YouTube several hundred million times.

The vocal superstar appeared as the musical guest on last night's (August 31) episode of America's Got Talent and received a standing ovation for her rendition of 'You Have To Be There'. 

The song was written by legendary Abba duo Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus and featured in the pair's well-loved Swedish musical 'Kristina', but Boyle has now made it her own much to the delight of the U.S talent show's audience. 

Boyle's forthcoming studio album, 'Someone To Watch Over Me', is set for release on November 1 and you can watch her stunning performance of 'You Have To Be There' below:

The tune is a showstopper written by legendary Abba duo Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus from their well-known Swedish musical Kristina.

Of her performance Susan said, "I'm so pleased the audience enjoyed the song. I really loved performing that big number. I was also a little nervous introducing something new. America's Got Talent - it's where I started with my first album, so it was wonderful to be back and for the support."

Susan says that the highly-anticipated new album -- her third in just over two years -- features a diverse mix of music that she knows will thrill her millions of fans. "There will be a few surprises on it," she said. "I'm very proud of what I have achieved so far and there is something for everyone. That's all I'm saying at the moment!"

Susan's life turned upside-down the night in 2009 when she performed for the notoriously tough Britain's Got Talent judges, who watched with shock and admiration as she sang "I Dreamed A Dream" from the musical Les Miserables. Her stunning performance made international headlines and prompted tens of millions of viewings on YouTube.

Soon after, her first two albums, I Dreamed a Dream and The Gift, dominated global charts, selling over 14 million copies in 14 months and reaching number one in over 30 countries. I Dreamed A Dream was the most pre-ordered album worldwide of all time and topped the Billboard charts for six weeks.
