Big hair, big earrings, black leather, shoulder pads and the 1980's little red easter egg at 1:26. What's not to love? This iconic song seemed to be on almost every Rock or Soft Rock album mix 2-3 decades ago.
Where is she now, I wonder?
Here is here wiki page. She is 63 now. It says she attended Julliard and studied violin and piano but much preferred guitar.
I've watched it back several times and I can't see what the Easter egg is :( is there something written on the cassette that I just can't read because tiny phone screen?
Also, this track goes up to 11 and I do my best to belt along with it even if it is several octaves lower 🤣

Yes it's the red Grundig personal cassette player. I won't call it a Walkman. You were either a Sony Walkman person or "something/anything else" ;-) haha

Ahhhh before my time sadly. Although I did own a Walkman in the mid 90s before CD players became more available... Man we moved fast through the 90s and early 2ks... Cassette then CD and then pretty rapidly MP3 players before iPods, and then by 2010 we were listening to music on phones via apps like Spotify... Rapid movement, although granted, that is 20 years.

Icon. Such an incredible song. And such a brilliant artist.
