In my opinion‚ the three most important musical differences between the two versions of “superstition” that I noticed was the dynamics‚ singing voice and singing style‚ and tempo. Right from the beginning of both songs‚ you are able to notice distinct sound differences between the two songs.

He uses a slow‚ solemn‚ and soft tempo to express his deep mourning and sudden dynamic changes at specific times to draw attention to times of heightened emotion. At one point‚ the orchestral accompaniment nearly stops‚ and a chorus of other singers picks up to highlight L’Orfeo. “Dido’s
