JJ Mist is beyond incredible here! This sounds so authentic that it could have easily been released in 1984! Awesome hard rock in the vein of Lee Aaron and Pat Benatar. What if the "Night Queen" teamed up with the "Metal Queen"? What an epic collab that would be! This is a not to be missed masterpiece!!!

about
Night Queen is 1980's retro-futuristic inspired song about a woman with a passion for disaster.
"She comes alive in city lights
living for the thrill
Her heart is soft,
her mind is sharp
she rides alone at will
She's the Night Queen".
lyrics
Lyrics:
Hungry in the night she prowls for a taste of more
Burning fuel as lights go out
the night has just begun
Wild and free she ain't no saint,
she ain't no easy catch
If you want love you'll have to pray
She won't fall flat on her back
There's something about her
She's got that fire in her eyes
Melting all of you
There's no way you can deny
She's the Night Queen
Riding deep into the night
Night Queen
She's got a passion for disaster
Her eyes and spies they watch for lies
in all corners of town
On her turf you've met you're match
but she ain't backing down
She own's this city and it ain't pretty
the things that she has seen
If you're not cut out for this life
then baby, it's best that you leave
Something about her
She's got that fire in her eyes
Melting all of you
There's no way you can deny
She's the Night Queen
Running deep into the night
Night Queen
Burning passion
Can you survive?
She's the Night Queen
Riding deep into the night
Night Queen
She's got a passion
There's something about her
She's got that fire in her eyes
Melting all of you
There's no way you can deny
She's the Night Queen
Riding deep into the night
Night Queen
She's got a passion
For love

Special thanks: My partner Chris, friends who listened and critiqued the song (Thank you so much!), caffeine, the neighbours - for letting me belt my little lungs out :3 and of course, 1980's pop culture.

I'm always on the lookout for my next Synthwave Tiger Beat crush. I feel so lucky to stumble upon this absolute banger of an album. Sellorekt/LA Dreams was a perfect choice for a collab. Keep these coming! Brian
