[edit] Synopsis

Andie, a female nighttime DJ at a radio station, refuses to play the tune "Nightsong" by superstar rocker Simon Locke, since Locke was her former lover, with whom she had broken up 5 years earlier. Shortly after the breakup, Locke had suddenly and mysteriously disappeared without a trace; no one seemed to know what happened. Tormented by the memory of the breakup, she is then visited by Locke's apparition, who shows her what really happened that night, and why he could "never come back" into her life: Locke had died in a motorcycling accident. After finding closure, she finally breaks down and plays the tune "Nightsong" . . . "from Andie . . . to Simon".
