    What I'm about to write here is probably nothing new, but I would say that Suaznne Vega is on the same level as Chuck Berry, Bob Dylan, Bob Marley, Neil Young, Lou Reed, John Lennon, Joni Mitchell, and others of the sort in terms of artistic merit. Great song and music video Suzanne. Carry on!

      This is one of my most favorite of her songs. I consider this song up there with all the other hits. I remember in Spring 90 in college hearing this and was the first song from this album following up to Solitude Standing. I knew right away it was a great song.

    I really love Suzannes 'Bob' style haircut - Think she looks great - That woman has style ! - Even back in the day as a young lady she looked so cool - She played at St.Georges hall in the 1990's - A very intimate venue in Bradford - Where the acoustics are amazing ! - I Was looking forwards to seeing her play ! And my back went and I was laid up - So I missed her show - But I saw a photo of her on stage in the local T&A newspaper (great write up) and instead of her cool style we are all used to! - Suzanne was wearing a mans boiler suit -Strange? - Making a statement I suppose !

      I play it along with my 4-string 4001. It sounds buzzy. I love it anyways. I also listen to the song only to hear the bass playing again and again. Never get tired of it. Generally though, the bass in Vega's productions is as you say, impeccable. If I'm not mistaken she had a tour in 2001 in which it was only her with a guitar and the bass player ("and the tour manager", as she said). And he was, if my eyes don't deceive me, precisely Michael Visceglia.
