Nine Objects of Desire

by Suzanne Vega

Nine Objects of Desire cover art

Collaborating heavily with producer Mitchell Froom, the acclaimed songwriter expanded her acoustic folk roots with remarkably lush, bossa nova and jazz-inflected arrangements. The polished, sensually rhythmic production perfectly frames her highly literate, sharply observed vignettes concerning modern romance and urban life. It stands as one of her most musically sophisticated and sonically adventurous outings of the decade.
