99.9F° (pronounced Ninety-Nine Point Nine Fahrenheit Degrees) is the fourth studio album by American singer-songwriter Suzanne Vega. Released on September 7, 1992, by A&M Records, the album marked a departure for Vega, as she embraced a more electronic, experimental sound. It peaked at No. 86 on the U.S. Billboard 200 and was Vega's fourth Top 20 album on the UK Albums Chart. The single "Blood Makes Noise" reached number one on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart. 99.9F° was the first of two of Vega's albums to be produced by Mitchell Froom, whom she later married.
The album was certified gold (500,000 copies sold) by the RIAA in October 1997. It was certified silver in the UK (60,000 copies sold) by the BPI in March 1993. Vega has referred to 99.9F° as her favorite of her studio albums.
