Dive is the third studio album by English soprano Sarah Brightman . It is her first album with producer Frank Peterson , and a marked departure from her previous operatic works. Its unifying theme is water and the ocean. Four of the songs are covers: "Captain Nemo " was originally recorded in 1990 by Dive ; "A Salty Dog " in 1969 by Procol Harum ; and "Johnny Wanna Live " in 1992 by Sandra . Likewise, "Once in a Lifetime " is a cover of the Gregorian song from 1991's Sadisfaction , also produced by Frank Peterson , though with different lyrics alluding to BDSM .
