“It comes in spits and spurts ... but it starts out slow and then one day you get a cheque for like $300,000 or some crazy number. The song released on Ednaswap is definitely more rock than pop, featuring more guitars and drums than Imbruglia’s cover. There’s no doubt that Imbruglia’s “Torn” is the most successful cover of the song, but the other three versions also have something unique to contribute. The second recording of “Torn” was by the song’s writers, Ednaswap, an LA band active from 1993-1999. Imbruglia’s “Torn” is quintessentially 90s pop.
Since then, she has moved between the US and Norway.
Preven sings really well, conveying the same pathos as Imbruglia, but sounding rockier. Members of Ednaswap, Anna Preven and Scott Cutler, wrote the original version of “Torn” with Phil Thornally (a producer who’d worked on albums by The Cure, XTC and Edwyn Collins). I was really trying to be Joni Mitchell basically.”. Ednaswap’s sound evolved from the post-grunge of their 1995 self-titled debut album Ednaswap, to the harder rock of 1996 EP Chicken and 1997 album Wacko Magneto, to the more melodic pop-rock on their 1998 album Wonderland Park.
Natalie Imbruglia was only 22 years old when she released her first single, "Torn," which opened the doors for her debut album, "Left of the Middle." These days, Preven and Culter own the music publishing company, Pulse. And in retrospect, now that I’m older and I can see, I think God we’re such idiots. But the story behind it has fans losing their minds. In 1993, Danish pop singer Lis Sørensen recorded a song by the name of “Brændt” – Danish for “burned”. Trine Rein is a singer who was born in San Francisco and moved to Norway as a baby.
“Our original demo version that we recorded in London was pretty much exactly Natalie’s version,” Preven said, recalling the day they wrote it. Twenty-first birthday. We were thrilled to have a hit. “Natalie’s version was very much the version we wrote. You’ll see that Gjerluff Nielsen came up with different lyrics to those written by Ednaswap, but you’ll definitely recognise the tune. While the song is seen as one of the ultimate breakup anthems, Preven — who was dating Cutler at the time — said it wasn’t about anyone in particular. After recording Preven’s original lyrics, the band came back the following day and decided to change it. Almost two-thirds of the 600,000+ albums sales were to Japanese fans.

I got the video.”, Imbruglia’s music video for Torn is rated one of the most iconic of all time.Source:YouTube. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. Like Imbruglia, Sørensen sings into the camera in the video clip. “So we were overly self conscious about it. But her version made it one of the most recognisable songs of all time — and led to a “waterfall of money” for its writers. Ednaswap performed “Torn” live shortly after they wrote it, but theirs is not the first recorded version. So what was so special about Imbruglia’s version? Check out Left of the Middle by Natalie Imbruglia. “It’s funny, if I didn’t know Sinead O’Connor didn’t write Nothing Compares 2 U and then I found out it was a Prince song, I might have my mind blown,” Anne Preven, Torn’s original writer and singer told news.com.au following the revelation. And it was recorded three times before Imbruglia’s 1997 version.
Sørensen also worked with the popular Danish musician Sebastian. Obviously, she was a pop star and had a background as an actor so she looked the part. Slowed it down, took out some words. But do they ever wish they released their very first version of Torn — the one that sounded like Imbruglia’s? And we really didn’t give it another thought,” Preven said. It went on to sell more than four million physical copies worldwide and, as of 2011, it held the record for the most played song on Australian radio since 1990. The video clip is intriguing and for parts of it she is inexplicably leading around two white horses. It had been covered twice before Imbruglia recorded it.
