    On Suzanne Vega's album, it's just her voice with no music. 100% acapella. The producers who call themselves 'DNA' took her vocal & added the music. They also rearranged some of her verses. They did this without her knowledge. Three years later, she found out DNA had made the remix. She was worried about how it would sound, since there were bad parodies of her big hit "Luka." She was totally surprised when she heard it. She still thought it would just play at a few clubs & that would be it. When it came out as a single, it went top 10 & imprinted itself into the minds of all of us unsuspecting music lovers. 😊

    It's a cool song. They actually used her song without permission, so she let them have a credit and released it herself! You should check out her song Blood Makes Noise for another side of Suzanne Vega.

      Karlheinz Brandenburg at Fraunhofer IIS used the song to test and develop the MP3 format, as the rendering of Suzanne Vega's voice wasn't quite right yet. Mr. Brandenburg knew from a hi-fi magazine, that the song was used to test speakers.

    Love this song! Another fantastic Suzanne Vega collab was a duet called “In a Lonely Place” that she sang with the late Pat DiNizio on the album “Especially for You” by The Smithereens. It has this sultry bossa nova vibe to it, and is so different from other songs by The Smithereens. Most of their music is very hard-driven.

  • @BeefyMon
    @BeefyMon 2 роки тому +8

    I’m not the first to mention it, but- yes this has much to do with the development of MP3 compression. The original version of the song was a cappella, which provided a challenge: compressing the sound of the human voice, but the DNA mix has the bass and beats which complicates things further. It’s worth checking out the history on Wikipedia.

    originally released as an a cappella opening track to her album's success song, "Luca", this song was reintroduced by DNA in 1990 (ah, the last decade of musical explosion of creativity), and it was the first a cappella which was also used by Karlheinz Brandenburg to develop the audio compression scheme known as MP3!! she later was invited in 2013 to sing the song for a live recording onto a wax cylinder at Thomas Edison National Historical Park, as part of an AES event!! i dare say, if it weren't for her original a cappella song, MP3 compression may not have been invented in quite the same format so many humans now consume music w/the least amount of digital size.. can you even imagine that? thank you once again for your reaction!

    Please review the music video for “Daddy’s Little Girl” by the rapper Nikki D. It’s basically her rapping grimly over this beat. That song was included on a compilation of tons of versions & remixes of “Tom’s Diner,” titled Tom’s Album.
    I saw the SV / DNA video and the Nikki D video frequently on the Jukebox channel (later called simply The Box) circa 1991.
    The early ‘90s were a mind-blowing time for music, though I believe the ‘80s were the best musical decade overall.
