Linda Yamamoto: Miracle Song

A song by Linda Yamamoto.

It’s quite old, but I feel like it was a bit ahead of its time.

If she appeared now with her looks, fashion, and this song, people would have embraced it.

It’s a track that feels like the times just hadn’t caught up yet.

The content is deep and overflowing with a dark vibe.

She sings that miracles don’t happen and don’t exist, but strangely, when she sings it, it feels like miracles might actually happen.
