The last I heard of lecca was her album "urban pirates", which I thought the cover was very cool, lol.

She pulls the Johnny Depp look quite well, hehe. xD

What I thought was strange about the cover was that, the bubble they used is the thinking bubble (there are different bubbles used commonly in comic strips), and yet, it is coming out of her mouth, lol.

Usually the thinking bubble is coming from a person's head, not mouth, lol, cus their ideas are coming from their brain.

Yup, I love her too. I do hope they don't try and turn her into a standard pop artist though ... she has that voice, I want her to use it properly XD. Another Kurenai Sora would be awesome.
