Suzanne Vega is an American singer-songwriter who became famous during the brief upsurge of interest in folk-based acoustic pop in the late 1980s. That period produced her first and biggest hit, 1987's "Luka", a song that vividly explores child abuse from the stoic perspective of a victim, and hit #3 on the Billboard Hot 100. Vega's other major hit was also first released in 1987: "Tom's Diner," which Vega originally recorded as an a capella ditty. The track didn't become well-known, however, until 1990, when it was remixed by the UK dance artists DNA, using a backing track by the R&B group Soul II Soul. In 2007, Vega released her seventh album, Beauty & Crime.
