Fun fact, The very first song to become an MP3 was Suzanne Vega's "Tom's Diner." A German engineer played the song over and over again as he tried to squeeze the song into a smaller size without changing its sound too much. The rhythm helped the encoding of the file.
if I'm not mistaken, the version that was used to make the first MP3 was the acapella one, since it was just her voice singing it was much easier to do it
When I was a kid I had this stuck in my head and I didn’t know who sang it or what it was called .So my aunt called a radio station - kiss 95fm and I sang it for them , they told me the artist and the song name and then my aunt took me to Sam the record man to buy the CD. I fell in love with every song on the album, I still have all my old CDs from my childhood . I have a disorder that has been eating away at my long term memory for years just hearing the song again brought that memory flooding back I’m happy she recently uploaded it on here ❤️.
You know the one, RatPack did a kind of cover that went "I am sitting in the corner searching for my Rizla, I had some marijuana and I wanted to get higher"
Bro I heard this song & IMMEDIATELY it reminded me of a song but I *could not remember what song* but after listening to this song I remembered the rhythm is like a song by Fall Out Boy lol
I saw her a couple of years ago at Beautiful Days festival... this is the only song I knew of her, and i didn't even realise she was playing the festival. She was by far the best act I saw that weekend! She was so down to earth and relaxed talking to the crowd too, amazing person
Such memories of this song , I had just graduated HS June 1990 I was 19 and had my whole life ahead to start a new adventure and here it is November 2024 and I'm 53 now thinking back on my adventure of life since and the ups and downs that we endure in life. I enjoyed the ups and learned life lessons during the downs that made me stronger to handle adversity and made appreciatethe ups, and I wouldn't change a thing.
@travis396 Yes, it wasn't unheard of as there were several other classmates the same age when I graduated. When I was a child my parents were not happy with the public school education I was receiving , so therefore pulled they me out of public school and sent me to a private Catholic school which was part of the Church we attended and because the educational curriculum was more advanced than my previous institution it was agreed by my parents and teaching staff that I redo 4th grade over instead of advancing into 5th grade. There were 4 other classmates in my class at that time who were of the same age with similar circumstances. Thus, being at the age of 19 when I graduated from a private Catholic school as well with an overall student population of 600. My parents were not wealthy by any means they were just hard-working 2nd generation Mexican/Americans who wanted a better life and opportunity for their children. Happy New Blessings to you and your family 🎉😊🙏
I accidentally interrupted a photo shoot of Suzanne Vega when I was attending afternoon tea at CARAMOOR, an historic estate in Katonah, New York (Westchester County) that is now open for classical concerts and performances. When tea ended in early afternoon, I saw Ms. Vega and her stylists preparing her for a future CD cover, and I approached her with my story: I had just finished listening to her 'Best of Suzanne Vega' CD on my way to the CARAMOOR tea event, and memorizing the entire discography when she asked me to bring her the CD plastic case and she would autograph the paper insert. I never ran so quickly to the parking lot to fetch her CD, and the surprise was that she asked for my address and telephone number. Within a week, I had House seats to her New York concert, and a visit to her back stage. What an incredible night that was! Thank you, Suzanne-you're a CHAMP! X-O-X-O
Awww what a beautiful story, it and this song, watching the dancers and a percussionist makes MY DAY ... there have been terrible things happening in Sydney, absolutely awful. The aBC was suggesting playing Tetris to help disrupt repeated images of what has happened, but I think I will watch and tap to this clip, and go back to my beautiful, kind drumming teacher Peter Vadiveloo when I have the dough and my head is a bit better, and more cxxx is unpacked in chateau rental evil agent la mould. We need the trees people ! Careful with plastics and the poor fishes and birds. Save the Koalas... sorry for my rant, this music is right up there! JOY JOY JOY and hope! XOX Blessings to you if you are having a hard time, hope you feel loved and less alone in your hurt and times of crisis ❤🌳🌲🌴🍀🪷🐝🐨
memorizing the entire discography? what do you mean... the best of CD?? has a discography? do you mean memorizing the order of the songs? in addition to listening to the best of CD you ALSO memorized all of her albums??

As a kid I asked for the Marilyn Manson CD with the beautiful people on it, completely clueless that anybody reading my list had no rhythmic basis off of which to interpret the "doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo dah nah nah".
And I only learned a month or two ago that the "woo hoo" song is called Song 2 by Blur. Mind is blown that the guy who sings for Blur is the guy behind Gorillaz
I first heard this song as a kid in 1991. The melody has stuck in my head ever since. I've spent the last 10 years searching for it till today. Brings back fond memories 🙂
I love this sort of slice of life style songwriting where it feels like you're just taking a brief peek into a bigger story. It's like you're an extra in a movie where someone else is the main character. You're not even the coffee shop owner, you're just one of the faces in the room. This song rules
It reminds me of the movies where they show ten different random stories that somehow all end up crossing over (like magnolia) I’m a complete sucker for those movies..and this type of song
The slow burn vibe of the song, plus the trancelike wordless chorus, plus the inscrutable almost haiku like observational poetry of the lyrics that feels like it contains so much more than it lets on. What a weird, beautiful pop hit.
Fun fact for those of you who don’t know, when she says “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” she’s talking about William Holden.
Thanks for explaining. I'll point out that at four years of age when this song was released - I knew what drinking was. I had the copy of the album on cassette.
And that (plus NYC area newspapers that featured the headline and had horoscopes & comics) narrowed down the day described in the song. November 17th, 1981 (his body was found on the 16th but remember, newspapers took a day to print)
I come here when I want to be transported back to a nostalgic moment in my 90s childhood. its of simpler times and childhood comfort - being able to let your imagination run wild knowing that you are safe and secure in your loving family. I had a lovely childhood full of family and laughter. RIP Mom and Grandma. I'm lost with out you ladies.
holisticallyholly what a fab handle. 🥰I am so sorry dear lady you feel so bereft to lose people so important to you. I hope their love is so close you can feel them as if they were giving you a hug every day, several times a day. I pray the kindness of random people will uplift you. Ignore my centre of the universe rant...I don't know what I will do when my mother is no longer with me. Vale Peter Hock and his unconditional love, my sweet gentle and patient uncle and my piano teaching up to the last moment auntie 'Peter', my Grandma who gave me my first Derwent pencils and her love and encouragement that I treasure 🎉 I wear my auntie's wrap and she us there with me. I will get my little keyboard out from storage, and I will learn this song ... 🎵 😌 😇❤
I had to do a whole slew of searching on google until I found a post on Twitter where one person was asking about a song that went "do doot do doot do do do doot" and found a single user who mentioned this song. I regret nothing
and the worst part is, when you tried to tell somebody what song it was that got stuck in your head, you ended up saying "duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh" and they think you are crazy😀classic 90s moment
I have never stopped listening to this song since 1987. I used to walk to secondary school with my best friend at the time Danielle Mason and we used to sing this together with our permed hair and hooped earrings and loafers! I'm 45 now and still listen to this. Reminds me of my childhood days. I lost my dad 2 months ago and this song reminds me of when I was a teenager living at home and my mum and dad doing there own thing, dad washing his car or cutting the grass, mum cooking or gardening, and me and my little sis just hanging out listening to music or watching TV. Ah the good old days. Now life is different and difficult at times, this song reminds me of how lucky I am to have a brilliant childhood ❤
you are magical.. I live in Russia, and yet, people in America are different, you and I are so different, and that's cool. Listening to this song, and reading what you wrote, I feel this atmosphere that you described, I am amazed and it is just charming.
Though a little older, I'm also fortunate to have such memories of this song and getting excited when it came on the radio, dancing to it with friends, just altogether happy, simple times. So sorry for your loss but happy to know you have such good memories of your parents. Memories of better times are such a blessing. And yes, we did have brilliant childhoods.
November 11, 2023 at work and this song pops in my head. I Remember Christmas back in the day my parents brought me a walkman along with this cassette tape. Now listening on my Smart phone jamming..thank you Suzanne Vega..for this beautiful piece ❤️
@sanemiyashegardens-cooks-s3912 oh wow, sorry for the late reply sometimes I can't tell when people respond 😫..and yes I'm doing pretty good thank you..hope you are as well☺️
I remember me and my sister walking down the street at night in the early 2000s and singing this tune. I never had heard the original, just this remix, and the beat was so catchy that I learned lyrics after hearing it a few times. Good memories.
I teach a music appreciation course at Southwest Tennessee Community College in Memphis. I'm always looking for ways to help my students understand that many devices and techniques used in classical music are still used today in many genres, just styled differently. I love introducing this piece to the class when we are studying Puccini's operas and his use of "verismo".... creating his operas from stories of everyday life people could relate to, rather than gods or mythology (as Wagner) or dramatic scenes with sometime terrible outcomes (as Verdi). So thank you Suzanne Vega and DNA.
There's a cover by Annenmaykantereit that has gained popularity recently. It's a wonderful rendition, and I think you may like it if you want to give it a listen.
I have been humming this song for years , haven't heard it since it was on the radio years ago. I came across the cover that a previous commentor posted today and viola, here i am! Life quest complete hah.
@PandguinGod bro the kid is just having fun, this song is fire 🔥 and idk why a kid dancing/singing to a uncommon song (this generation) bothers you , Fix your brain like Seriously you are acting like a 9 yearold rn :/
@PandguinGod do you know my son to make such and assumption? It was my son singing the song that bought me to this video in the first place. He likes to go on UA-cam and look at videos of action scenes from his favorite movies these things are usually sped up and use a time-lapse of some sort the background music of the scenes is usually dance music and house music. So when my son started singing the course of toms River I automatically knew he didn't look up the actual song I knew it was those videos that he enjoys watching so that brought me here to the original song so I can show him that I wants enjoy this song to when I was his back in 1999. Don't be mad at my son and me for having a good ear for good music even if it's remix and not the original song. I was just sharing what brought me to this particular video almost two decades after its original release and yes it was my five-year-old son to jog my memory of this awesome song
She’s talking about Tom’s diner at 112 and Broadway in New York City. This restaurant is the same on the Seinfeld gang always ate at (the exterior shots, interior shots were on a set of course)
Quando esse som estourou aqui no Brasil, eu tinha uns 10 ou 11 anos . ( Anos 90 ) Curti muito esse som , bons tempos , boas recordações! Som top !!! 💃🕺👏👏👏👏👏👏
One of my favorites!! It's so descriptive, I can see it all playing out just as she sings it. What a fantastic, artist!! All these years later and I still love to listen to her!! 😚💜💜💜🌹
This song came out exactly 30yrs ago. I'll be 39 on January 28 and I can still clearly hear my mom telling me and my brother to sit down before we break something because we were dancing the whole entire time 🤣 when the video come on.
After all these years I still love this funky beat. Tom's Diner I remember hearing this song on WBLS they played this song allot on the radio. When I first heard this song? I said wow!!! This is some good funky beat. But I never knew the artist that was singing words to this song.
The moment I heard IVE's new song I thought OMG it's Tom's Diner and remembered how kick butt this song was when I was a kid and since my parent's CD is long gone I had to come here. For my generation the beginning chords of this song and Luka are like ingrained in your mind lol.
That tune does sound familiar to me (and catchy). You have convinced me to add this song to my "Songs that get stuck in your head" youtube playlist lol
"Tom's Diner" is a song written in 1982 by American singer and songwriter Suzanne Vega. It was first released as a track on the January 1984 issue of Fast Folk Musical Magazine.[1] Originally featured on her second studio album, Solitude Standing (1987), it was released as a single in Europe only in 1987
The restaurant was at 112th and Broadway in NYC. She would stop there every morning for breakfast before taking the subway to her job as a receptionist.
Makes me want to cry... listened to this as a young child vacationing with my brothers away at my big mummies house. Some of those with whom I shared these moments with are gone to meet with the lord. L.I.F.E
I finally found this song after 15 freaking years of searching!!! Heard it in a cassette in college, hearing it back now!! Thanks youtube! Such a hook!
I'll sometimes start humming random tunes that come into my head on the spot, and when I was younger I hummed this exact tune, I swear I didn't remember hearing it anywhere and I had refined it over and over and then hummed it for my parents because I was so so proud of it. They then told me it already existed and played this for me. I swear I had never hear it before. But that can happen sometimes when making any form of music
@@zyorus8092Im not, but it’s weird. I’ve had really bad memory for the stuff in the present rather than the past, I remember my experiences so well as a kid I feel like I’m in my younger selfs body again since I was always super focused on my surroundings. So yes, I can vividly remember humming this.
I loved this song as a small child. Then I just forgot it existed. Then when I was a teen Fall Out Boy released the song "Centuries" and that "Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo" sent me on a quest to rediscover this song. SUCCESS!!!!
Fun fact, The very first song to become an MP3 was Suzanne Vega's "Tom's Diner." A German engineer played the song over and over again as he tried to squeeze the song into a smaller size without changing its sound too much. The rhythm helped the encoding of the file.
i thought he was just a fan lol
No way …gohhhh!!!!🤣🤣🤣
It's always a German lol.

Fun fact, this song was used to test mp3 technology. Iconic.
Edit: It was this song, but the acapella version that was used for mp3 technology.
it was actually only the vocals (the original version) that were used to test mp3
Lol fun fact Indeed!!!!

You know the one, RatPack did a kind of cover that went "I am sitting in the corner searching for my Rizla, I had some marijuana and I wanted to get higher"
This song is weirdly timeless. I feel like it could have been recorded as easily yesterday as twenty years ago.
Nawh. It very much feels early 2000s
Go listen to Giant Rooks version. Both are iconic!
Definite break beat vibes reminds me of Primal Scream
@@MrAgentTurner weird cause it was released in 1987.
It feels 92/95😀
This beat is forever sick and her sound n flow just smooth with it
The piano near the end makes it better!

Even without meaning in the lyrics sound great.
The acapella version before they put the beat to it is smooth...
...then they did a GREAT JOB with the beats!!
Bro I heard this song & IMMEDIATELY it reminded me of a song but I *could not remember what song* but after listening to this song I remembered the rhythm is like a song by Fall Out Boy lol
If you ever get the chance to see Suzanne Vega live, go for it. Her voice, her music, and her poetic lyrics are so worth it.
Seconded! One of my top memorable concert experiences. (Come back to the Cascade Theatre anytime, Suzanne!)
Poetic lyrics really😂
I saw her a couple of years ago at Beautiful Days festival... this is the only song I knew of her, and i didn't even realise she was playing the festival. She was by far the best act I saw that weekend! She was so down to earth and relaxed talking to the crowd too, amazing person
Does she still perform live?
@@bippitybopitybooty4208 Yes, she's going on tour in the US and Europe this year!

So sorry for your loss but happy to know you have such good memories of your parents. Memories of better times are such a blessing. And yes, we did have brilliant childhoods.
Wow! was it 1987 I lost track of time thought it was long 88- 89 or 90 I had just graduated from HS in 87
November 11, 2023 at work and this song pops in my head. I Remember Christmas back in the day my parents brought me a walkman along with this cassette tape. Now listening on my Smart phone jamming..thank you Suzanne Vega..for this beautiful piece ❤️
Nd it's the next day for me - been singing this since yesterday - had to play it. Hope ur good
Thirteen days later, here I am as well.
Just heard it on 92.1 WJNI 11/29/2023
@sanemiyashegardens-cooks-s3912 oh wow, sorry for the late reply sometimes I can't tell when people respond 😫..and yes I'm doing pretty good thank you..hope you are as well☺️
@@Mike-er5xb IKDR just such a great song😇
I’m a DIVE but loved this song long before. I’m so glad stans are finding this song. It’s so unique.
DIVE here and also love CENTURIES
I'm a 80s baby and this was everywhere, I grow up to this song, good times.
I remember me and my sister walking down the street at night in the early 2000s and singing this tune. I never had heard the original, just this remix, and the beat was so catchy that I learned lyrics after hearing it a few times. Good memories.
Yeah same

I have a very similar memory with my siblings and in the early 2000s 💭🥰
My sister and I
I remember the same, with my sister. But we made out afterwards. Alabama, born and raised.
Back because I thought IVE took inspiration from Fall Out Boy, and then realised FOB in turn interpolated THIS SONG. Legendary..
Bcos IVE song was co-composed by Suzanne Vega herself, who also wrote Tom's Diner.
IVE was here!
Decades have passed & I still know the lyrics by heart....it'll always be timeless classic & personal favorite...LOL
Hahaha me too!
Duh duh duh duh dun duh duh duh.
Soon centuries will pass.
September 2024. I love this song. It’s the sort of song that sticks in your head.
Y’all have a great day!
Have a great day too Sir.🫡✊🏼
Who is here because of ive?
Meeeeeeee
🙋🏻♂️
IVE sampling "I Will Survive" made "After Like" a huge success so I'm hoping for the same result 😄
Me
Meeeee
WHO'S HERE BECAUSE IVE, A KPOP GROUP SPOILED THEIR NEXT SONG WITH THIS MELODY??
😂😂😂
Me 🖐️
I teach a music appreciation course at Southwest Tennessee Community College in Memphis. I'm always looking for ways to help my students understand that many devices and techniques used in classical music are still used today in many genres, just styled differently. I love introducing this piece to the class when we are studying Puccini's operas and his use of "verismo".... creating his operas from stories of everyday life people could relate to, rather than gods or mythology (as Wagner) or dramatic scenes with sometime terrible outcomes (as Verdi). So thank you Suzanne Vega and DNA.
That's a literary technique, not a musical one.
My sister goes there
Has Anyone here after IVE release "Attitude"
Yes
Who’s ive?

IVE is going to sample this song 😍💕
Ive going to sample this omg
My 27-year old son was humming this, just this morning and I had to give it a listen.
Love this song....
it was a whole time.
There's a cover by Annenmaykantereit that has gained popularity recently. It's a wonderful rendition, and I think you may like it if you want to give it a listen.
@@austinbrandenberger4154
Thanks....will do.
@@austinbrandenberger4154
Just did. You were right....it ROCKS.
@@austinbrandenberger4154 I love that cover, he has an amazing voice
I have been humming this song for years , haven't heard it since it was on the radio years ago. I came across the cover that a previous commentor posted today and viola, here i am! Life quest complete hah.
hello?? this is so cooooool I'm excited for how ATTITUDE is gonna sound like with this sample
HOW DID U PREDICT IT
@@The-Mediator Leeseo did the spoiler at Mcountdown interview and last performance of rebel heart at inkigayo ending fairly
Summer 1990! This song was a big hit in the UK singles charts back then.Great tune I think 😊
thank you for ive sending me here
My 5 year old started randomly singing this yesterday and I was impressed!! Good music never dies.
Same i keep singing this Song ❤
Vayy çocuğunuz şarkı gibi çok etkileyiciymiş ❤
There Is a new rendition of the song.
You should check it out, I imagine you will be floored by the guys voices.
@PandguinGod bro the kid is just having fun, this song is fire 🔥 and idk why a kid dancing/singing to a uncommon song (this generation) bothers you , Fix your brain like Seriously you are acting like a 9 yearold rn :/
@PandguinGod do you know my son to make such and assumption? It was my son singing the song that bought me to this video in the first place. He likes to go on UA-cam and look at videos of action scenes from his favorite movies these things are usually sped up and use a time-lapse of some sort the background music of the scenes is usually dance music and house music. So when my son started singing the course of toms River I automatically knew he didn't look up the actual song I knew it was those videos that he enjoys watching so that brought me here to the original song so I can show him that I wants enjoy this song to when I was his back in 1999. Don't be mad at my son and me for having a good ear for good music even if it's remix and not the original song. I was just sharing what brought me to this particular video almost two decades after its original release and yes it was my five-year-old son to jog my memory of this awesome song
attitude
finally found it again. the "old song doo doo doo by girl" worked
So cool right
Same!
i literally had to find it by searching dodododo do do do do do do
Starts sweating because if you type the wrong amount of do's, baby shark pops up
🤣🤣🤣
She’s talking about Tom’s diner at 112 and Broadway in New York City. This restaurant is the same on the Seinfeld gang always ate at (the exterior shots, interior shots were on a set of course)
Cool info
Stream ive -attitude
IVE is the reason why I'm here ❤
Quando esse som estourou aqui no Brasil, eu tinha uns 10 ou 11 anos . ( Anos 90 ) Curti muito esse som , bons tempos , boas recordações!
Som top !!! 💃🕺👏👏👏👏👏👏
Isso mesmo 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
i'm here for ive
One of my favorites!! It's so descriptive, I can see it all playing out just as she sings it. What a fantastic, artist!! All these years later and I still love to listen to her!! 😚💜💜💜🌹
Yet another proof that shows 90's dance music like this has aged perfectly like fine wine, even in July 2023!!!!!!🎵👍
It's august now ..
@@alexkoln5849September now
YES!!
Революция
Nov now 😭
WHO IS HERE FOR THE ATTITUDE BY IVE????
誰也是被ive帶來的？😍
This song came out exactly 30yrs ago. I'll be 39 on January 28 and I can still clearly hear my mom telling me and my brother to sit down before we break something because we were dancing the whole entire time 🤣 when the video come on.
When this song came out I was almost 38. On January 28th (same birthday) I'll be 68 but still grooving to this beat while feeling 38. 🤪
Happy new year, happy birthday :)
happy birthday
@@ozgekrmz980 Thank you ❤️
@@jermainelatimer804 :)
After all these years I still love this funky beat. Tom's Diner I remember hearing this song on WBLS they played this song allot on the radio. When I first heard this song? I said wow!!! This is some good funky beat. But I never knew the artist that was singing words to this song.
Look up the acappela version, it's amazing
Also look up "Take 5 - Kool Summer Mix" awesome track with same vibes.
I'm back because IVE 😊
The moment I heard IVE's new song I thought OMG it's Tom's Diner and remembered how kick butt this song was when I was a kid and since my parent's CD is long gone I had to come here. For my generation the beginning chords of this song and Luka are like ingrained in your mind lol.
I had this album when i was a college student.🤗
How bizarre to think that it's 35 years old!! Still sounds fresh!! What a song! Xxxx
😎😎😎
Wow is it that long. .every thing in my life between 15 to 33 waa just a manic drug fuelled haze
Not this version by DNA. This one is from 1990. Still an old choon which aged very well btw!
Shut up Shut up Shut up
Ur making me feel old
The song came out in 1992😕
드디어 찾았다.. 십수전부터 두두두두부분을 따라불렀지만 제목은 몰랐던 노래...
👍👏💥💯💐🌺😍😊
제가 찾던 뚜뚜뚜 여기 있었네요 ^^ 감사합니다
That tune does sound familiar to me (and catchy). You have convinced me to add this song to my "Songs that get stuck in your head" youtube playlist lol
ㄹㅇ
그건 centuries 아닌가요? Fall out boy
"Tom's Diner" is a song written in 1982 by American singer and songwriter Suzanne Vega. It was first released as a track on the January 1984 issue of Fast Folk Musical Magazine.[1] Originally featured on her second studio album, Solitude Standing (1987), it was released as a single in Europe only in 1987
And it didn't reach Asia for another couple more years so for us it was 90-91. Aahh ... life before the Internet and UA-cam.
The restaurant was at 112th and Broadway in NYC. She would stop there every morning for breakfast before taking the subway to her job as a receptionist.
@@jpoconnor5744 Wasn't it also featured in Seinfeld?
Creo que la versión de Giant Rooks le hace buen honor
@leechjim8023 Yes it was 😊
我終於找到這首歌了，好聽❤
never get old.this song was played on every station you can think of
Timeless. This song is takes me right back to 90’s and I love it
Hell yeah dave in miss the late 80, s 90,s soooooo much
80s and 90s have been the greatest decades of music
Makes me want to cry... listened to this as a young child vacationing with my brothers away at my big mummies house. Some of those with whom I shared these moments with are gone to meet with the lord. L.I.F.E

❤❤❤❤❤
I finally found this song after 15 freaking years of searching!!! Heard it in a cassette in college, hearing it back now!! Thanks youtube! Such a hook!
Total nostalgia…..& makes me feel like a teen from back in the early 90s!!!!🙌🏽❤️🔥🙌🏽
What I think is fun about this song is that you could fill in with anything you want, the lyrics dont matter as long as it is regular daily things
The best carried these basic lyrics.... 😃😃😃
This is the comment I was looking for.
YES, THE TRUE MEANING YOU SEARCH INTO, THE BEATS ARE DOPE
What a stupid concept
Facts
who else came here after IVE's attitude MV?
It blows my mind not everyone grew up hearing this song in America at least
who's here after IVE Attitude? 😁
Mee
me, it's so addictive
I can’t believe I finally found this song after like 12 years 😅 I’m so happy now
Años sin escucharlo y de repente suena en una radio de Puebla, se me hizo mágico ese momento.
Eso si 👍🏽
Igual años sin escucharla y de repente en una estación de radio en cd juarez ✌️
I'll sometimes start humming random tunes that come into my head on the spot, and when I was younger I hummed this exact tune, I swear I didn't remember hearing it anywhere and I had refined it over and over and then hummed it for my parents because I was so so proud of it. They then told me it already existed and played this for me. I swear I had never hear it before. But that can happen sometimes when making any form of music
IVEの新曲これのサンプリングか〜！良い😭❤
yes bro`
They copied
@@saydivorisganiev916 no?
Finally!! I was looking for this timeless classic!
Omg..haven't heard this song or seen this video in yrs...the nostalgic is real asf💞💞💞💞💞
Finally after 30 years we got an HD edition..
At least 10 years ago I used to hum this song but never knew the name 4 months ago I’m now 16 and finally found the song
i cant remember yesterday yet lone being 6 years old, i call cap
@@zyorus8092Im not, but it’s weird. I’ve had really bad memory for the stuff in the present rather than the past, I remember my experiences so well as a kid I feel like I’m in my younger selfs body again since I was always super focused on my surroundings. So yes, I can vividly remember humming this.
The beat and her voice goes together like so perfectly this is the type of song that belongs on repeat.
It is!...
In my head😆
@@phantomcruizer It’s in my head at least one time per day lol
one hell of a sensual sexy singer ❤
@@ianbell7342 Yeah it is a superb classic
Puta que pariu eu fiquei uma hora e meia procurando essa música, achei num post de forum de 2009.
Posso descansar em paz agora.
Boa guerreiro. Essa agonia é foda kkkk
Feliz
Faz anos que eu queria encontrar a música e só consegui agora graças ao sistema do google que pesquisa pela som kkk
@@kalylvazquez Baixe o Shazam, é um app feito pra isso!
Ahhhh, THIS is the song to play while I’m eating breakfast and making myself coffee in the morning because I’m half-asleep.

Who's here after IVE's Attitude?
🙌🏻
I loved this song as a small child.
Then I just forgot it existed.
Then when I was a teen Fall Out Boy released the song "Centuries" and that "Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo" sent me on a quest to rediscover this song.
SUCCESS!!!!
Same here!!!
SAME when i first heard centuries something in my brain fizzled and clicked and i went on a hunt
Yessir
here because of IVE 🤚🏻
Here from IVE 💖
