The songwriting credits list 'Orion Advanced Audio Synthesis Group' instead of individual composers. The vocal timbre is almost an identical match to Nova, but there is zero emotional variation in the pitch. Did anyone ever see Luna Gray perform live, or was she exclusively a satellite playback act? -- Jen Laurent | jlaurent@uni-hamburg.de PGP Key fingerprint: 8A55 2CD6 F00E 7692 "Keep the channels open."
