I had a really big crush on Lene when Lucky Number came out, and it's just come back!
Radio 1 used to have a show called Star Special where a star would play an hours worth of their favourite or most meaningful songs from their collection. I still have a tape of Lene's show, fascinating choices and interesting introductions to them.
As Giddy says, a lovely, intelligent and articulate woman.
She is so intelligent, well spoken, intellgent, educated, heartfelt, beautiful......I cant say enough wonderful things about Lene. (her newest cd is INCREDIBLE)
"we are from the same planet... not necessarily the same street" bahaha that's for damn sure. i think Nina's street on that planet would make all of our heads explode, or just spin right off.
I think I'm related to her!!!! We share the SAME surname!!! My dads from yugoslavia and hers is too I think!!! It would be the BEST thing in the world if I was related to her!!!!! We're also alike in many many ways!!! :3 :3 :3 oh I really hope I am!!!!
Yay for Lene. Lucky Number rocked my world when it came out and I totally fell in love with her. We could probably do with a lot more people like her who are not afraid to be different.
I have seen this incredible lady many times and had the joy of meeting her a couple of times... quite by accident once, and am forever in awe of her talent and honesty and mind. You rock the world Lene! much love always
I think one thing I love so much about her is that much like Nina Hagen her music has a very otherworldly and somewhat esoteric feel to it.Though she never took spirituallity in music as far as Nina Hagen it was definitely there.
I LOVE this woman. I'm so happy she is making new music. It's fun to watch her older clips. Sometimes she looks gorgeous, sometimes ridiculous, but ALWAYS amazing! Keep it up, dear lady. Create whatever music makes you feel joy. No record label pressure, to be something else. Thank you fro coming back to us.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
She says right in the interview that she went to elementary school in Detroit, you stupid fuckhead! That's a little bit more than bein born here. You Brits are such assholes about this kind of shit!
Lene, if you are reading this, never forget that you have millions of fans around the world who love and respect you. You and Les are the best! Now please get off the computer and start working on a new album;)
To me, nothing. She's perfect. But I have read other's weird opinions of her. People generally are very judgmental of anything or anyone different from them. You can test this theory by wearing something different, something colorful, something not worn by others and gauge their reaction.
I have always been in love with Lene. I wasn't exposed to her until 1981 and "New Toy", but I've been a big fan ever since. She is terrific. It would be wonderful to meet her.
I used to LOVE! Lene Lovitch, I was 13 years old, that particular noise and voice had too much to do with my taste in music ever since, in art in general, I ow to her my alternative way of living and my poin of vew, thank u, I am proud to be a former punk Brujafrik, Uruguay South America
I think she's aged very well. Can you imagine Lady Gaga 30 years from now. It defies belief. Gen Yers have no idea.

I'd give my right arm to watch Lene Live just once in my lifetime.
A little older as we all are and still a very beautiful woman inside and out.
To me what makes her so unique and warm is her eclectics but her basic honesty mixed in as well. I love Lene's music :)

Her dad was Serbian, her mom British. After her dad's illness, the family move to the UK where Lene has lived since she was 13 years old.
I consider Lene one of Rock's best female performers.
