Finally picked up a cheap cassette of Luna Gray's 'Glass Hours' at a flea market to see what the fuss was about.

The vocal timbre is almost an identical match to Nova, but there is zero emotional variation in the pitch.
The songwriting credits list 'Orion Advanced Audio Synthesis Group' instead of individual composers.

It feels like listening to an artificial clone of someone you loved.

Line 06: 'DO NOT WORSHIP THE COPY.' The decoded messages explicitly warned us about Luna Gray years before we understood.
