  • Sister Louisa Mark is one of the most beautiful old school rock singers to touch the souls of anyone that loves old school rock and she will be so sadly missed.

    Sister Louisa Mark is the Markswoman and we will never forget that.

    RIP, Sister Louisa Mark

  • My cuz Donz said she woke 3am thinkin of this... Hmmmmm.....

  • One of lovers rock's alltime greats which came out during my embryonic raving days as a teenager. I'm deep into my 40s now and it sounds just as good.

    Sad to hear that Louisa died. Her other brilliant works like" six street" and" keep it like it is* live on.

  • love this song not heard it for ages!

  • R.I.P. Louisa Marks, you were responsible for a considerable amount of wall paper replacement back in the day. Thanks for the great memories!!!!

  • @desmond9917 , you're damn right there. Musicians these days don't possess wallpaper removing qualities. Neither do modern-day ravers
