Leader Dave Mustaine described the rerecording recently as follows:
"I decided, and I have sang 'A Tout Le Monde' again with Christina Scabbia (LACUNA COIL). I had LISA MARIE PRESLEY confirmed, as well as two other attempts, but Christina was the obvious choice for our metal community. The song was sped up a little, like it was supposed to be on Youthanasia before all the tempos were turned down. It has a 50% longer solo of original Glen Drover lead guitar blending into the original Marty Friedman solo, and launching off of that at the end of the solo taking it up a little bit more. So, now that leaves us with what to do with this song. Well, its intention was only to soothe my wounds, and it was meant to be a 'B-side' for Japan, but that didn't happen, as you will no doubt read. The song was finished and turned in to the record company and the radio department and everyone, including people that have heard the song before, are saying, 'this is the single for America!' There was excitement and a buzz, and they ALL agreed on this, which is a feat in itself when you have some many creative people in one place at any given time."'A Tout Le Monde (Set Me Free)' can be found on Megadeth's upcoming album, United Abominations, due out on May 15th via Roadrunner. The track listing is as follows: 'Sleepwalker', 'Washington Is Next!', 'Never Walk Alone', 'United Abominations', 'Gears Of War', 'Blessed Are The Dead', 'Play For Blood', 'A Tout Le Monde' (Set Me Free)', 'Amerikhastan', 'You're Dead', 'Burnt Ice' and 'Out On The Tiles' (LED ZEPPELIN cover for Japan-only).
