Unlike Madonna, who had exposed her petite frame under bridges and cavorting with a lion in the original video for the 1984 hit, Scuccia was also pictured in Venice for her video, but dressed with her traditional habit wearing a crucifix and refrained from reclining on boats. In an interview with a Catholic newspaper Avvenire, the nun said, “I chose it myself. Without any desire to provoke or scandalize.” “If you read the lyrics without being influenced by what has gone before, you discover that it is a song about the capacity of love to make people new again. To release them from their past. And this is how I wanted to interpret it. That’s why we’ve transformed it from the pop-dance track it was into a romantic ballad a bit in the style of [US singer-songwriter] Amos Lee,” Scuccia was quoted as saying. *Suor Cristina Scuccia won the 2014 season of The Voice of Italy and as a result of her triumph, she had a record deal with Universal.
