25 Years Ago in the Nineties: DNA Featuring Suzanne Vega “Tom’s Diner”
Suzanne Vega‘s second album, Solitude Standing, produced the biggest pop music hit of her career, as “Luka” rose to number 3 on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart. Three years later, another track from that album would become the basis for the second of Vega’s two Top 40 hits when British duo DNA remixed Vega’s original “Tom’s Diner” — the first track on Solitude Standing — with a dance beat and produced a Top 10 single. Exactly 25 years ago, “Tom’s Diner” by DNA featuring Suzanne Vega was in the midst of a three-week run at number 5.
