#26

LUKA

“…I guess I’d like

to be alone,

nothing broken,

nothing thrown...”

In 1987, Suzanne Vega released her 2nd studio album. 'Solitude Standing'. "Luka" was a single lifted off the singer / songwriter's LP that year. 

The song is sung from the perspective of an abused child. Vega penned the moving track. It remains her highest charting single. In America, it peaked at #3. It reached the Top 10 in many countries, including Sweden, Canada and New Zealand. On the UK chart, the disc climbed to #23.
