Tracie - Souls On Fire (Respond)

She sounds much more confident now, as does the song. In fact, at times she reminds me of Madonna, while the song has tinges of Wham! and JoBoxers about it. A big hit if you ask me. (Peter Martin, Smash Hits, March 15, 1984)

Tracie's past offerings have all been adequate hits, and while she's never lacked confidence she has lacked dynamism - the kind that characterises Madonna and Cyndi Lauper. Here Tracie competes with a lot more gusto, depth and huskiness. The little girl image has finally caught fire!
