Karla, Danny, and Liberty

I saw a singer in an early '80s video on Vevo who kind of looked like Kate Bush.  It turns out she's Karla Devito, who sang the Ellen Foley parts on Meat Loaf's Bat out of Hell Tour.  I guess I'm not alone in noticing a resemblance because online people say she looks like a cross between Bush and either Linda Ronstadt or Cyndi Lauper.  Even better, she references the recruiting saga of Petersburg High's own Moses Malone.  Oh, and she's been married to Robby Benson for over forty years!

            "I want some French sunglasses /

            Call waiting on my phone / (note: was that a thing yet in 1981?)

            I want a house for my mother, just like Moses Malone."
