She is brilliant ;)

[Zodibigh]

Both of her early disc are very good. Her music has a way to touch.

My favorite song of Susanna. My first vinil

@wazmacmusic Actually, both of these songs were already recorded - Cracking on her 1st album from '85, Ironbound on her 2nd from '87. Other parts of the concert (Part 3/4) have 'new' songs on them, i.e. Men In a War.

@bigrigbob2010 I owned both in disk (LP) but CD's were available in 1985 however.

Amazing to think that this was before the album recording. The perfectly written and already precise tune tells of the wealth of talent that is Suzanne Vega. As for the performance... perfect.

@mycommentuserid For my money she is the most underated female singer/ songwriter of the last 30-40 years. It is sad to see girls like Brittny spears and lady gaga become millionares with 1/10th (and thats being extremely generous) the talent she has, while she remains in obscurity. LOL I had solitude standing on tape for years then heard fancy poultry on a radio at a mall. I hadn't thought about her in a long time I just downloaded her discography.

@bigrigbob2010 Actually, they were on cassettes, too. We sometimes referred to records as "discs" then, as you probably remember!

Regardless of the medium, this woman is a marvel, isn't she?

[bigrigbob2010]

@Zodibigh Very true, but they were LP's not discs. cd's had not been invented yet

[andreasjacke]

She is on of the best Songwriters. I always think at Virginia Woolf - don't know why --- Great Performance!!!

Allow me.. it is such a line that makes Suzannes lyrics, poetry to me.

I feel no need to have a rational explanation for something that simply appeals to me.

I like how this line gives a totally different context to both the lyrical idea to have wings, and to be free.

Both won't allow you to fly.

Can't agree more!

Or less :o)
