Suzanne Vega

[gracelikerain]

Anyone here a fan?
She is the one who sang (and wrote) the song "Tom's Diner." She also recently came out with a new album "Beauty and Crime" (I haven't heard that one yet)
I love her lyrics and the mood/contemplative quality of a lot of her songs.. I find them especially good to listen to when I'm on the train or outside in the city just observing things.
Some of my favorite songs are Rosemary, the Queen and the Soldier, Blood Makes Noise, and Solitude Standing...

I think they're doing the "running man" and/or the "roger rabbit" at the beginning... Good song...
