Por qué Mr. Anderson, ¿Por qué lo hace? ¿por qué se levanta? ¿Por qué sigue luchando? ¿De verdad cree que lucha por algo además de por su propia supervivencia? ¿Querría decirme qué es, si es que acaso lo sabe? ¿Es por la libertad? ¿Por la verdad? ¿Tal vez por la paz? ¿Quizás por el amor? Ilusiones Mr. Anderson, desvaríos de la percepción, concepciones temporales de un frágil intelecto humano que trata con desesperación el justificar una existencia sin sentido ni objetivo.
Marion Elise Ravn (born on May 25, 1984 in Lørenskog, Norway) is a Norwegian singer-songwriter and former child actress. Her surname is of Norse origin, with Ravn meaning Raven, which she adopted as her stage nameMarion Raven as well as for her trademark raven logo. She was one-half of the now defunct pop duo M2M, along with Marit Larsen. Raven was later marketed as a pop-rock artist with the release of her 2005 international debut album, Here I Am. In 2006, Raven was signed to indie record label, Eleven Seven, and released the Heads Will Roll EP. Most recently, she has released her European/U.S. debut album, Set Me Free, and has been extensively promoting it in Germany, Netherlands and the UK.
Whilst working with Desmond Child on new songs for her U.S. debut album Set Me Free, Raven met Meat Loaf, who was also working with Child on his latest album, Bat Out of Hell III: The Monster Is Loose. Child suggested that Raven join Meat Loaf on a duet for the song, "It's All Coming Back to Me Now," a song written by Jim Steinman for his Pandora's Box album, Original Sin (1989), and later covered by Celine Dion in 1996. The song was picked as the first single from Bat III, and the video, featuring Raven as a ghost haunting her lover, premiered on VH1 Classic in the U.S. on August 12, 2006. The single was commercially released in the UK on 16 October 2006, having been playlisted by BBC Radio 2. The track debuted at #43 based on downloads alone, to make a rather impressive jump to #6 during its second week, becoming Raven's first UK Top 10 single,[8] and second charting single in Britain. She had a Top 20 entry as part of M2M when "Don't Say You Love Me" debuted and peaked at #16 in 2000. "It's All Coming Back to Me Now" spent a total of 85 weeks on seven different charts, including 21 weeks with six weeks at #1 on Norwegian singles charts.[9]
In late February 2007, Raven joined Meat Loaf on an extensive Canada and U.S. tour, in which Raven performed acoustic ballads and songs from Set Me Free, as an opening act before joining Meat Loaf for the duet, "It's All Coming Back To Now."[10] The show, excluding Raven's opening set, was released on the 3 Bats Live DVD. Merchandise, including copies of Set Me Free and Raven T-shirts, were made available exclusively on tour. The album, which will feature a mixture of tracks from the previous Here I Am as well as new songs, will be officially released in mid-late July 2007 in the U.S. and early May in Europe.[11]
