I received a very classy recommendation today. Not for everybody like a 'Film Noire". A tribute to Anne Sexton by Peter Gabriel.

Also got most of her albums. "Night Vision" about dusk always gets me. Saw her live in Brussels many moons ago.

A couple of months ago I heard "Luka" on national radio. The radio host explained that for decades Vega had always explained the story that it was about child abuse regarding a boy who truly lived upstairs her NY apartment. But that only last year or so, Vega unexpectedly made a shock-confession during an interview or concert that, in reality, the main character in the song wasn't about a boy as she had always told in interviews, but based on her own unfortunate childhood experience. "Luka" was her way of dealing with that past.

I did not find a source backing up that sobering piece of info. Maybe it's based on a misunderstanding and can be debunked. No matter whether it was Vega or the boy, child abuse is a terrible crime, period.

Suzanne Vega - "Night Vision" (1987):

Great insights into the song . I think Gabriel’s storytelling with his lyrics inspired by the poem is superb. Track sounds great with the overlay.

I think from this period of 80s music also like John Cooper Clarke’s “Beasly street” is also worth a listen. Bit of a dark song , but the lyrics are just full of imagery.
