Amaranthe releases a cover version of ‘Fading Like A Flower’ by Swedish pop rock legends Roxette today. You can listen to it below.
The band comment: “Being born and raised in Sweden means being subjected to a veritable bombardment of ultra-catchy music, starting with ABBA right through to the present day, with some of the world’s best songwriters and producers hailing from here. One of the most successful acts to come out of Sweden is Roxette, and if you were young in the 80s/90s, their music was EVERYWHERE. Doing a tribute to 1991’s ‘Fading Like A Flower’ is something we half-jokingly talked about for a few years, and when the opportunity arose during the recordings of ‘The Catalyst’, we jumped at it. Roxette’s melodies and arrangements fit Amaranthe like a tailor-made glove, and now we’re really excited to share this cover with you all!”
