The original idea had been to interpret love songs, romantic songs – it didn't have to be a specifically sad or happy love – but, in the end, there are a few songs with other themes as well. The love story was short, but, when it ended, I continued the project, since I felt there was a quality to the versions that I'd already finished.
I recorded cover songs for this person because, quite simply, I was overwhelmed by emotions. Speaking more widely about the album, Brun says: "The whole project started with me falling head over heels with someone new.
I believe he had lots more amazing music to give to the world." I'm so sad this great artist has left us. But I felt like continuing my treasure hunting, and I soon found this beautiful comforting love song 'No Reason To Cry' from the Mojo album released in 2010. "Even though I had not really consciously listened to his music, I soon realised I already knew and loved a lot of his songs from the '80s and beginning of the '90s. "This gave me a fantastic chance to dig into his catalogue and I discovered some amazing tunes and lyrics!
"One of my dearest friends asked me if I could do a Tom Petty song for this cover album," Brun says. Ane Brun has just released a new album taking in covers of Radiohead, Nick Cave, Sade, Mariah Carey and a whole host more acts.Īll in all, there are 14 cover versions featured across Leave Me Breathless, and amongst those is a cover of 'No Reason To Cry' from the late Tom Petty - you can hear her cover above.
