From Solitude Standing, her best album, IMO.

There's always something about Suzanne Vega that says "twisted" in a cool way:  like if you met her in a smoky bar at 1 in the morning, you'd be in for an adventure.

This song is sweeter than sugar.  I love it.  Conjures an ever so slightly different sort of a gypsy than the ones the word is applied to in the UK.

Great mix tonight Bill. Just what I'm needing to hear. Now if you could take this into The Wheel somehow.

She is playing in Brighton this Thursday. . . was musing today if I should take Mrs Poacher out to see her and then this came on. 

Guess I'll have to go - would be a shame to miss it.

Yes, I've always found her voice to have a comforting quality.  Beautiful song.

It must feel so good to be able to write a song so perfectly formed as this...

I've always wondered what a dilema looked like; horned Siamese lama? A lemming crossed with a  dulangdulangduolang?
Just wondering.

For the record, Barnard is an outstanding select liberal arts institution and I am very proud to have been a part of it, if only briefly. Never have I met a more devoted (& talented) faculty, administration, and staff devoted to delivering a high-quality college experience to such incredibly bright, promising, and talented group of women.  In case you've never heard of it, Barnard is across the street from (but never in the shadow of), Columbia University in Morningside Heights (NY, NY).  See >>> www.barnard.edu

 
I have a few friends who attended Barnard as well as Baruch (I used to confuse the two) - great schools.
I saw Ms. Vega at Carnegie Hall when her second album was released.  Great show.

This brings back memories.  Attended the Fast Folk Festival concert at the Bottom Line in the Village in NYC in 1988.  Suzanne was one of the artists preforming and this was one her songs.   Best part was my seat was stage front....SWEET!!!   Shawn Colvin was another artist there as well...
