Anita Lane was born in the wrong era. She should have been around in the Sixties, when heavy lidded purring sex kittens were all the rage.

The Next man that is see', and its B-side, The wildest dream', are seductive battle cries for every woman who has ever been dumped.

Lane comes across as a female Nick Cave, sharing a similar melancholy but with a lot more sex appeal.
