I just started listening to Regina last week and I absolutely love her. It's the only music I have been listening to since and I listen almost non-stop. I think I can say that I am already addicted. I love almost everything from Begin to Hope (except for That time, which is okay, but a little too repetitive for me). Apres moi is a gorgeous song and I am beginning to really like 20 years of snow, despite its obvious quirkiness. I haven't been able to listen to Soviet Kitsch that much (I got it 2 days ago), but I already love a few of the songs. Then to consider that she created over 700 songs (according to wikipedia)!!
That's amazing.

And not only does she make great music she seems to be a really great person as well. On youtube there is a whole series of live performances at something called Lollapalooza or something and in the middle of The Flowers (gorgeous song btw) she sees somebody in the audience get sick. She basically stops the entire song and lets the audience make a road toward the sick person so security can get to him/her. You can see that she is genuinely worried and I think that really shows how kind and considerate she is.
Now I want to see her live....... As if she is coming to the netherlands any time soon :(

I haven't seen the film yet - so thanks for posting the link! Really nice song
that fits the theme of Prince Caspian admirably. I love the strings in this  :razz:

I have been listening to her live performances lately andI heard that song for the first time yesterday. It's an odd song lyrically, but really good nonetheless. It's very honest and simple in a way and it really made a big impression on me.
I also like the "sit down class" lyrics for some weird reason, it takes the song from beautiful to extraordinary even though I can't really say why.
Human of the year is btw my current favourite, it's really haunting and powerful, but just about any new song that I hear by her is immediately at the top of my favourite songs list. She really is incredible.

i like listening to her song, "Samson" over and over again.
And even now
When I'm alone
I've always known
With you
I am home.

This is such an amazing song and clearly there's some inspired fans up to the
task of recording a cover of this and sticking it on Youtube! Chrissy's cover @

I do like Laughing with however, I enjoy blue lips better. There is a video on youtube where she is on the piano with a small group of 4 people playing stringed instruments and its the best.

Blue Lips is absolutely amazing... fortunately for me, one of the Senior Chefs where I work is also a hooj
Regina Spektor fan, so I can see my next 'fully attended' Riesling & Sushi night like the one I did for Shannon
Thomas, being put to the remarkable music of Ms Spektor  :o
