	Lene Lovich (layna luvich), the New Wave singer from the Seventies
who used to belt out pop songs like a member of Hitler Youth, is alive and
well and living in her native England.

	The only news musically is that Stiff Records put out a four-disk 
compilation earlier this year with some of her material on it, including 
"Lucky Number," which apparently went all the way to the number 68 spot in 
England - her best response commercially.

	The following information comes from a June 28, 1993, article in 
London's "Evening Standard" by Vincent Graff:

	She's living near King's Lynn, Norfolk, with her two daughters.  
She's 44, but as Graff points out mockingly, still fond of "pseduo-
philosophical mumbo-jumbo."  She's been working with an Argentinian band 
called Soda Stereo, rewriting their lyrics into better English.  Her 
pigtails are much less substantial ("I had a hairdressing disaster and all
my hair fell out six years ago.")  

	She writes short stories and was short-listed in 1992 for the Ian
St. James Award.

	She appeared in an apparently made-for-TV modern "mini-opera"
called, so help me, "Queen of the Fruit," about a woman having an affair
with "a crazy, evil taxidermist."

	She is forty-five years old.

	I wish I hadn't looked her up.  I loved "Stateless...Plus" too.
