Shona Laing
"(Glad I'm) Not a Kennedy"

Released in 1985

Shona Laing is a singer-songwriter from New Zealand who started releasing albums in the 1970s. While she was a big artist in her homeland, not many of her songs made it to American radio. This track is one that many modern rock stations played. Laing was inducted into the New Zealand Music Hall of Fame in 2013.
