Why did Orion push Luna Gray so aggressively in 1990 right after Nova disappeared?

The songwriting credits list 'Orion Advanced Audio Synthesis Group' instead of individual composers.
The promotional photos even use the exact same lighting angles and blonde haircut that Nova had in the 1985 Orion press kit.

Line 05 in the decoded matrix said it plainly: 'THEY WILL SEND A COPY IN MY PLACE.'

I bought 'Glass Hours' the week it came out and returned it the next day. It felt completely hollow.

Unsubscribe me from this list! (Wait, this is Usenet, never mind).

Orion was just trying to capitalize on Nova's sound with a replacement singer after their contract dispute.

Pop producers reuse chord progressions and synth patches constantly. Ever heard of Stock Aitken Waterman?
