The first time I heard "Tom´s Diner" was in 1985, when Suzanne Vega toured Germany to promote her first album. "Tom´s Diner" was not released yet - it was released in 1987 - and not known to the audience. She began the concert with this song - a capella. When people started clapping the rythm, (she did NOT encourage them to do so) the took a step back from the microphone to make them stop - without interrupting her singing of course.
This is super awesome....probably the way she was singing it when she wrote it way back when..... and didnt realize how pretty Suzanne Vega is........cool!
U can tell she wrote this song herself ..... I mean did she make this song when she was drunk? Something cause this song is so weird ...... It's not horrable ....but it realy strange
Always bothered that the remix cut off the last line:
I am thinking of your voice.
And of a midnight picnic once upon a time before the rain began...
And I finish up my coffee and it's time to catch the train.
IMHO the crux of this song is that she is noticing all these little trivialities because she is trying NOT to think about the person she is no longer with. And without that last line you miss the point.
Are you dense? The real song IS A Capella. Know what you're talking about before speaking. She originally wrote the song to be backed by a piano, but didn't know how to play the Piano so she reworked and recorded it as an A Capella.
I noticed hm too, at first I tought he didn't know the song, bu then I figued he was just one of those asses who goes to shows, and gets near the stage and deliberatly looks bored to unnerve the preformer
hah D bag 0:31 that doesn't want to be there

Prefiro só a voz ou a versão original.
O f... dessas músicas estouradas é que após um tempo precisam ser reinventadas para que o cantor ainda tenha algum estimulo de cantar.
Pire aí, champz! Essa música já deve ter sido cantada mais de 20 mil vezes pela vocalista.
