I love Regina Spektor. Begin to Hope brought life to my iPod headphones in high school. She was weird and cool and interesting and, soon, very mainstream (thanks a lot Grey’s Anatomy and (500) Days of Summer).
A while back, the podcast Wonderful inspired me to revisit Soviet Kitsch in full. She’s always been there in the background and hearing her voice takes me to so many places and spaces in my life.
Now I’m getting back to it with her most recent album from 2016. I’ve only gone once through so far, but feels just like her and I’m not mad at it.
