My life was changed forever when I found out this was a cover song.
One of my favorite inside jokes (population 1) is singing this in the style of how Iâd imagine Rip Torn would. I donât have an explanation for this, it just makes me happy. Bonus fun, how would the music video convey âthe perfect skyâs Rip Tornâ
edit: added many versions by Lis/Ednaswap/Trine
Great song!

Smash hit in the nineties. Few are aware that this is actually a cover of a song initially written by the three future members of Ednaswap, Scott Cutler, Phil Thornalley, and Anne Preven, for Prevenâs solo work. It was first recorded in 1993 in Danish by Lis Sørensen as âBrĂŚndtâ (which translates as âBurnedâ). It was recorded by Ednaswap themselves two years later in 1995.
In 1997, Australian singer Natalie Imbruglia covered the song for her debut studio album Left of the Middle. Imbrugliaâs version was recorded in Kilburn, London with David Munday (lead guitar), Phil Thornalley of Ednaswap (bass, rhythm guitars, production), Chuck Sabo (drums), Henry Binns, Sam Hardaker (Zero 7) (drum programming) and Katrina Leskanich, lead singer of Katrina and the Waves (background vocals). It was mixed by Nigel Godrich. Released as a single, Imbrugliaâs version became a worldwide hit, being considered as an âAll Time Pop Hitâ.

- Torn - Ednaswap - Topic [1997]
Most famous from the 1997 cover by Natalie Imbruglia, this song was originally written in 1993 by Scott Cutler, Anne Preven and Phil Thornalley for Preven to sing solo, which she did a number of times live. It was first recorded by Danish singer Lis Sørensen, renamed as âBrĂŚndtâ (Danish for âBurnedâ). Two years later, in 1995, it was covered by Cutler and Prevenâs own band, Ednaswap. Ednaswap actually re-recorded the song for their second album, 1997âs Wacko Magneto. They had planned on releasing the new version as their second single after âClown Showâ. But by that time, Imbrugliaâs version was a runaway smash hit and the plans were scuttled.
