However, this is not for the first time that the two have interacted with each other. Both the rock sensations met at the Nobel Peace Prize concert in Oslo 2007. Both have co-written the song ‘Ring the Bells’ which was featured in Melissa’s 2008 album Merry Christmas.
Moreover, this friendship doesn’t end here. The Grammy winner singer has also written an introduction to Salman Ahmed’s book “Rock & Roll Jihad”, where she stated;
“The story you are about to read is the story of a light-bringer… Salman Ahmad inspires me to reach always for the greatest heights and never to fear….Know that his story is a part of our history.”
Well, it seems that there might be a new partnership brewing between the two. We, sure, can expect some great work from the two.
