    From 1981, Lena teams up with Lulu on a cover of Wanda Jackson's Fujiyama Mama, and both get attacked by Rod Hull's psychotic side kick in a very funny sequence.
    Apparently, Emus can't fly, and unfortunately nor could Rod Hull, as he found out to his cost, one fateful evening in 1999.....

    Actually, Lena died of bronchial pneumonia she'd developed in hospital following a form of brain surgery called a leucotomy. She underwent the surgery in a last-ditch effort to relieve the very deep depression she'd suffered for many years. It was also thought this would be a way forward out of the vicious circle of anorexia she'd suffered since her teens.
