"Tom's Diner" by Suzanne Vega is a pretty darn good song. There are two bits of trivia about it that you likely do not know: First, the original song is nothing more than Vega singing. There's no backing music of any kind, just her. A group called DNA liked it and did the remixed version of it that you hear on the radio. The second bit of trivia is that the song was used as the benchmark track for the now ubiquitous compressed music format known as the MP3. So in effect, mp3s were designed to play Suzanne Vega songs.
