There are many, many Suzanne Vega songs I might have chosen for this latest edition of my start-the-week musical reverie (and I shall probably include some more in the future...). I have been utterly beguiled by her since her eponymous debut album became a big hit in the middle of my university years (40 years ago - but who's counting?). This is an insidious favourite, Caramel, a love song about resisting desire (and there aren't many of those!), with a warm sultry vocal and a mellifluous bossa nova swing to it. And one of my favourite basslines ever!
I find it soothing as a cup of hot chocolate, and sexy-as-hell too.
