To commemorate Elvis Presley's 35th death anniversary, his daughter, Lisa Marie will release a new video duet with her father, "I Love You Because."
Reuters reports that the video of the father-daughter duo, which was recorded in August, will debut on Thursday on Country Music TV (CMT) and CMT.com during the 8 and 10 a.m. ET/PT music hours.
The song was originally created for the 25,000 or so fans at the anniversary concert in Memphis on Aug. 16 but the overwhelming enthusiasm of fans convinced Lisa Marie to create a video for the masses, Reuters reported that CMT said in a press release.
Presley recorded "I Love You Because" in July 1954 in Memphis. The duet with Lisa Marie was produced by Grammy and Oscar winner T-Bone Burnett.
She said to The Hollywood Reporter, "It's very intimate. It was important for me to show that he's carrying on through me and my children."
The last tribute to her father was "In the Ghetto" which premiered in 2007 with proceeds going to the Presley Place Transitional Housing Campus in New Orleans. "Every five years, I try to do a special tribute," she said to The Hollywood Reporter.
Lisa Marie's latest album was released in May called "Storm and Grace." The video that will debut "features family photos of Presley's 4-year-old twin girls, Finley and Harper, as well as her son, Benjamin, and daughter, Riley, along with Lisa Marie and Elvis," Reuters reported.
Reuters reported that Presley will be going on a November tour with starts in New York's Carnegie Hall on November 17.
