That song used to (and still does on some stations) play every five minutes on the radio. I hate to say it, but I'm still sick of it. Shame what the radio stations do to good music.<br /><br />Wasn't that song in Benny & Joon?Jennifer Fabuloushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07521908385026885699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8786284110007207873.post-74219422387278832332012-04-25T06:47:52.048-07:002012-04-25T06:47:52.048-07:00I really liked Suzanne Vega and was sort of disapp...I really liked Suzanne Vega and was sort of disappointed when she disappeared from the music scene.
