EMA – “Soul On Fire (Redux)” (Danzig Cover)
EMA has a bit of a history with Glenn Danzig. She met him backstage at a Danzig concert when she was 18, and exactly five years ago to the day, on his birthday, she shared a cover of “Soul On Fire.” Now it’s Danzig’s birthday again — he’s turning 61 — and EMA has decided to do a new version of the cover, which she apparently recorded in a single take. It’s awesome, and you can hear it below.
