    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

    March 16, 1991. Travelling on Bear Run Rd, leaving Millville NJ towards Atlantic City, early on a grey, wet, muffled early spring day. Winter had yet to give up it's booth in Mother Nature's diner, and Spring had yet to come through the door. Gloved hands on the steering wheel of my 1979 AMC Concord DL, absorbed in this melody, nodding my head in time to the trumbling bass rhythm, and Suzanne's perfectly monotal melodic voice. Not quite a mood, but an anchor memory forming, as I watched the windshield wipers move in 1/2 time to the beat. As I travelled forward in time, not only then, but 33 years later, I realize that each note must happen just as it is played, otherwise, the song of your life will always be "out of tune". Keep going... it's worth it.

    Blast of nostalgia right here. My brother and I were at our local record store searching through the CD section (we were blessed to have a brand new Diskman portable CD player for Christmas) this song comes on the raido (Y-100 Philadelphia) they don't say the name of the song so I ask the man behind the counter. He says Tom's Diner. So my brother calls me over and hands me this album. I still have it. Sometime inconveniences are good.

      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.
