Bruce Dickinson’s melodic and powerful vocals are replaced by the beautiful voice of Aline Happ, who brings a new atmosphere to “Tears of the Dragon”, with a classical crossover style. Focused on the folk style, the singer and music producer gives a new life to the classic of the solo career of the singer of Iron Maiden. The song is part of a series of reinterpretations that Happ performs on her YouTube channel, which already has versions of Rihanna, Linkin Park, Iron Maiden, and even, The Mandalorian. Some of the songs are also available on the most popular streaming and download platforms.
Originally released in 1994, the song “Tears of the Dragon” was the first single from Bruce Dickinson’s second album, “Balls to Picasso”. The lyrics talk about the vocalist’s afflictions when he left Iron Maiden in 1993, only returning six years later.
