    In one of her videos where she tells the story of this song, she said it never caught on as she hoped it would with the original version. Then some time later, her manager called and said someone had used the song (DNA) and made a "Remix" without any permission, and said she should not worry about anything as they were getting ready to sue them. She asked them hold off on the lawsuit, and listened the song, and loved it so much that she asked them to leave them alone, and the song became very famous...!

Then during the pandemic I went for a long hike in the Rocky Mountains and while relaxing in my sleeping bag this song popped in my head. It took me years to find it 😂😂😂 classic song.

    The "Mother of the MP3"
    An article in the now defunct magazine Business 2.0 revealed that "Tom's Diner" was also used by Karlheinz Brandenburg to develop the audio compression scheme known as MP3 at what is now the Fraunhofer Society. He recalled: "I was ready to fine-tune my compression algorithm...somewhere down the corridor, a radio was playing 'Tom's Diner.' I was electrified. I knew it would be nearly impossible to compress this warm a cappella voice."
    In a 2009 documentary about the history of the song by Swedish SVT, Brandenburg said: "I was finishing my PhD thesis, and then I was reading some hi-fi magazine and found that they had used this song to test loudspeakers. I said 'OK, let's test what this song does to my sound system, to MP3'. And the result was, at bit rates where everything else sounded quite nice, Suzanne Vega's voice sounded horrible."
    Brandenburg adopted the song for testing purposes, listening to it again and again each time he refined the scheme, making sure it did not adversely affect the subtlety of Vega's voice. While the MP3 compression format is not specifically tuned to play the song "Tom's Diner" (an assortment of critically analyzed material was involved in the design of the codec over many years), among audio engineers this anecdote has earned Vega the informal title "The Mother of the MP3"

      Totally with you on the both versions response. It allows you to compare and contrast. Love the Albert hall version with a totally respectful audience (as I would expect at RAH) allowing the audience to hear clearly her excellent voice. In the DNA version you get the hooks and beat which draw you along. Both masterful imo

    Tom’s Diner / Song by Suzanne Vega
    I am sitting in the morning
    At the diner on the corner
    I am waiting at the counter
    For the man to pour the coffee
    And he fills it only halfway
    And before I even argue
    He is looking out the window
    At somebody coming in
    It is always nice to see you
    Says the man behind the counter
    To the woman who has come in
    She is shaking her umbrella
    And I look the other way
    As they are kissing their hellos
    I'm pretending not to see them
    Instead, I pour the milk
    I open up the paper
    There's a story of an actor
    Who had died while he was drinking
    It was no one I had heard of
    And I'm turning to the horoscope
    Looking for the funnies
    When I'm feeling someone watching me
    And so I raise my head
    There's a woman on the outside
    Looking inside does she see me?
    No she does not really see me
    Cause she sees her own reflection
    And I'm trying not to notice
    That she's hitching up her skirt
    And while she's straightening her stockings
    Her hair is getting wet
    Oh, this rain it will continue
    Through the morning as I'm listening
    To the bells of the cathedral
    I am thinking of your voice
    And of the midnight picnic
    Once upon a time
    Before the rain began
    I finish up my coffee
    It's time to catch the train

      It's not iambic pentameter, which is ba-BOP ba-BOP ba-BOP ba-BOP ba-BOP, i.e. five blocks of a unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. This song has four blocks of "da da DA da," which makes it some kind of tetrameter, except the "da da DA da," i.e. four syllables with the accent on the third syllable, doesn't have a name. The fact that this pattern isn't recognizable must be why it is so annoyingly catchy.

      it wasn't "remixed" per se. The original (and the only one BY Suzanne Vega) was/is acapella.. This version was not only un-official it was illegal at the time. They've long since settled, but at the time Vega was a little upset about it.

      In-fact, this is known to be one of the best, if not THE best, remix-songs ever produced, in-terms of the difference between it and the original production. This was also the first song ever on mp3-format, specifically because it has such a large musical range and instrumentation!!!
      This is a truly timeless song/remix that has not only withstood the test-of-time, but remains an absolute favorite of many, if not most people, for the decades since it was first released as a boot-leg from DNA's car trunks.
      SERIOUSLY.

    Wow, take me back. This was an influential song from the moment I heard it. I also have been looking for this song for years. You can plug in your own lyrics at any time and make it your own song. Fantastic beat you can dance to, high energy and memorable when you hear it. I've had the beat and rythm in my head for years.

Let's just hope this song will be in people's memories for another 30 years and beyond! I also love the energy this gives! This is one of those motivational get up and go type of songs that would get me through school 🏫 when the 🚌 strike was going on around 91-92 🏫 season. This song is definitely worth the download!
