Lotus

Lotus is the fourth studio album by Italian singer Elisa, released on November 14, 2003 by Sugar Music. Initially intended as a live album, Lotus became a mixed record containing six new songs, seven re-recorded greatest hits from previous albums and three cover songs. The album is predominantly acoustic; following the initial idea. The album opens with a cover version of Leonard Cohen's song "Hallelujah" from his 1984 album Various Positions. "Sleeping in Your Hand", "Labyrinth" and "The Marriage" are taken from the singer's 1997 debut album Pipes & Flowers, while "Gift" and "Luce" are from her second album Asile's World, and "Rock Your Soul" and "Stranger" are from her third album Then Comes the Sun. All of them were revisited in acoustic version. Other cover songs include "Femme Fatale" from The Velvet Underground's first album, The Velvet Underground & Nico and "Almeno tu nell'universo" by Italian singer Mia Martini.
