This a fan-site. As much as this is about Suzanne Vega, I'm not going to go into her Bio, will put up an interview though. My part in writing text will be more around how she impacted my life.

When I first heard "Luka" (yes I am going to admit it and not lie and said I had already heard "Marlene on The Wall" previously), it opened a totally new perspective in the sense that my parents listened to protest songs, but they where about what was relevant in the "Hippie" era, and things that where going on then.

Even as a child in 1987 I was old enough to listen to the lyrics and understand the "crux" of it. So much so that I started asking my Mum questions about the subject of child abuse. This opened a whole new world for me and understanding that there are more problems in the world than simply not getting that toy you want now and then.
