    denise -
    you're so right - ever so lonely was definitely one of my club
    staples as a dj in san francisco back round 87 along with ofra haza

    revealing my real identity) i'm gonna hafta look for this new album.
    hopefully ever so lonely still kicks around in used record shops,
    probably in the world music section for a buck.
