The Opera Song (Brave New World)

The Opera Song (Brave New World) is a song by Jurgen Vries and Charlotte Church. Church was credited as CMC because her label was concerned about the press' reaction if her change from classical flopped. It reached a peak of number three on the UK Singles Chart in January 2003 and was the 70th-best-selling single of the year in that country. It also reached number 25 in Ireland and number 62 in Australia.
