Suzanne Vega - “Luka” (1987)
Everything is blue in this video, tinted blue like a bad day for night shot. Suzanne Vega sings all moody and concerned with her little hat, her little bangs and that striped sweater. By the way, 20 years later and all those things are fashionable again, and williamsburg is full of girls looking just like her. Eerie.
Luka, the troubled youth, is none other than actor Jason Cerbone, whose other notable credit is playing Jackie Aprile Jr in The Sopranos. Yes, Vega lays it on pretty thick: bad things happen to you as a kid and you end up with the mafia, simple as that, so watch out kids!
