I've listened to several singers after Judy made her comment on this thread.
IMO, Charlotte Church sang it with passion, even though she was still very
young when she sang this aria.
But Sissel's version made it more understandable because of the subtitles.

LOL. I didn't know, so I looked it up. The name apparently comes from the
Rastafarians, for whom dreadlocks are a sign of devotion, i.e., fear of the
Lord--hence dread.

Aside from their dreadlocks, consider the odd connection of the Rastafarians
to Shiva. From what I understand, they believe in smoking marijuana as part of
their religion, which is similar what the sadhus are doing to worship Shiva.
