Eurovision Winners Maneskin to Feature on Baz Luhrmann's 'Elvis ... (Variety)

Eurovision winners Maneskin have covered the track 'If I Can Dream' for Baz Luhrmann's 'Elvis' biopic.

In addition to performing “Supermodel” on Saturday night, David revealed the glam rockers had collaborated with Luhrmann on a track, “If I Can Dream,” for the biopic, which features Austin Butler as the doomed music icon. Ostensibly their participation was to celebrate the competition’s 60th anniversary but seven years later they continue to field representatives for the competition and have become an associate member of the EBU. Luhrmann is known for infusing period films with modern songs, from a cover of Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” in the turn of the century-set “Moulin Rouge” to The Cardigans’ “Lovefool” in his adaptation of “Romeo + Juliet.”
