  Helen Slater - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Helen Slater (neƩ Schlachter, born December 15, 1963 in Massapequa, New York) is an American film actress of Jewish descent.
Slater debuted in the public spotlight as Supergirl in the 1984 movie of the same name.
She has often been erroneously thought to be related to Christian Slater, a myth fueled not only by their surnames, though Slater is not the original surname of either of them, but also by their portrayal of sister and brother in The Legend of Billie Jean.

A breath of fresh air may be a much used turn of phrase but it aptly sums up my feelings as the content of the lyrics prove light in feel although not in quality.
