Before Evanescence, before Florence + the Machine, there was Luba.
In line with, say, Cristina, Luba knows where the rock is in her Benataring.
She can sing. She has the tunes. Why don’t we know who she is?
Tell me that these songs don’t work for this era.
Side One is on 80s bop after another.
How’s Side Two?
Well, it starts off with the synth-rocker “Heaven in Your Eyes” (at least it does on my stream) and that’s another Pat Benatar type track that could have had a video, even though it would have been the third single. The strings actually add to the track instead of cheesing it up.
