Juliana is an Italian singer now living in New York, and her music sounds like it could have easily been written by Dr Luke, but as far as I can tell she hasn't worked with any major writers. She doesn't even have a record deal, yet this song is as accomplished as anything by The Veronicas or Kelly Clarkson. The chorus is really catchy and the whole song is very well constructed. I think Juliana Joya could be a huge popstar in the making... or she could just be the new Lucy Woodward or Lucy Walsh (hmm, Lucy isn't a very lucky name, is it?). There are a few other good ones on Juliana's MySpace, especially Dance All Night and electro-r'n'b Shackles, but this is the clear standout. I will be following her career with great interest.
