Cantora de opera faz cover de TMV

A cantora de ópera Renée Fleming vai editar um novo álbum e nele vão constar covers de artistas pop/rock que todos conhecemos. Citando a própria sobre a versão dos TMV: "I was especially fascinated by the Mars Volta song, With Twilight As My Guide, which is operatic in its scale and musical complexity. I was, however, a bit concerned about the text, specifically the reference to 'devil daughters.'" Fleming wrote to the Mars Volta's Cedric Bixler-Zavala, asking permission to change the lyrics. "Sure, she can change it," Bixler-Zavala replied, but he said the lyrics were "sarcastic" – "one huge metaphor for the [poor] way women are treated in Islamic society". Fleming was satisfied: "This explanation was enough for me."

O album sai em Junho e valerá uma escutadela, certamente.

EDIT
