Today is the 30th anniversary of that Wednesday long ago, which inspired a song which spawned dozens of remixes and helped perfect the MP3 format.

If by any chance you're not familiar with the details, take a look at Dave Hammar's piece of investigative journalism here.

I don't know about you, but my day started with breakfast in a coffeeshop, watching the crowds go by. I wasn't inspired to write a song, however… I'll leave that to the professionals Smile

That is a classic piece of journalism — I'd forgotten that Dave tracked down all those details.

belated Happy Tom's Diner day!!! Such a great song! I can't believe it's already the 30th anniversary.

Best wishes, Zoli

In spite of what some say about "hating" that tune that gets stuck in your head, I never get tired of it.

An episode of RadioLab mentioned it as one of those songs that do that.
