If you haven't listened to her yet, you should listen to her new album right now. She's enormously talented and has a refreshingly original sound. Any other fans here?

I can never get tired of her song Somedays. It's a song that makes me feel "infinite" whenever I listen to it (haha expression taken from Perks of Being a Wallflower). The cello part is absolutely beautiful and I love how smoothe and beautiful her piano sounds.. it's like wow
lol <_< |

lol, James. I would LOVE to go to one of her concerts. I just think she's an amazing artist.
I really like the songs "Samson," "On the Radio," "Somedays," and of course, "Fidelity." |

Seventeen Magazine actually released a CB album and her song, Ode to Divorce in it.... just for the record D:
You know I was reading this site that reviewed her album and the person was saying how ugly the album cover was.. It was pretty IMO |

I don't watch videos.
I also don't know how I managed to miss this topic. I do adore Regina Spektor. I was just listening to her, in fact. "Pavlov's Daughter" and then "Chemo Limo." This topic has reminded me that I need to see when she's going to be her, because I swear the radio said something about it the other day, but I wasn't listening until I caught her name. Oh f**k, it's 21+. *sulks* |

At times she reminds me of Fiona Apple but not angry at the world and other times she reminds me of Kate Bush but not crazy.

I've only listened to Mary Ann online; it's depressing how few music stores stock Regina's work around here. Begin to Hope is indeed amazing, though.

I don't know if someone already made a topic about her in the past, but here it is.
When I first heard a song of hers, I didn't like it. I haven't appreciated her music until just today. I dunno if it's her interesting music videos or just her unique style of singing, but I've found her pretty entertaining. I liked the videos for "Us" and "Fidelity." |

Fidelity and Begin to Hope suck. People really need to listen to her old albums, the new one is a bastardization and a damn shame. VH1-approved chick rock isn't cool.
Get Songs, 11:11, and Soviet Kitsch. |

^Mostly agreed. Mary Ann Meets the Gravediggers, although a compilation, is my favorite of her albums because it flows and fits together so nicely.
Regina's Atlanta show got rescheduled twice, so it was finally last Friday. I could have gone because it was a Friday and I have my car now, but I couldn't decide whether I wanted to until Wednesday when it sold out. Oh well.. |

Soviet Kitsch. My personal favorite. And yep, there was a topic made ages ago for Regina but it didn't quite make it into the Music forum after the subforum changes a while back. No big though. -Topics Merged and LOL@ Nicki freaking out the last time the topics had to be merged. haha |
