I can't stop listening to this! It sounds amazing! Barbra has a different sound than this, making them very hard to compare. I think you both sound amaizing!
Regina Spektor's voice/songs always seem to make me feel something I rarely feel with other artists. She's so talented and it's so effortless. She doesn't need to even try it just seems to flow. I want to see her live!
@QtEeAngelAndi you need to grow the fuck up and realize that everyone hates each other, and its been that way as long as humans have been around. why do you give a shit if i use the "f" word over 100,000 people die everyday but you treat the word fuck like its something horrific. Fuck the jews and long live capitalism
@Jewhater119 grow up and realize you live in a world with haters and lovers but more importantly the idea that nobody cares about your opinion unless you do something that benefits other people, otherwise your as good as a bag of hot air. So you can try to be the next hitler, but nobody will value your existence unless you do something about it. Please, stop typing and act on your beliefs, this way you'll be thrown in jail to rot where you belong and the internet will be a nicer place.
@ice9willENDusall your right no one gives a shit about my opinion, but nobody gives a shit about yours either. now go kill yourself and make my world a nicer place
I as in this sort of surgery and I got through with it thanks to numbing and this song because it was on my head the whole time (: thanks so much Regina for helping me
I just went from a Sophie Tucker video of "One of these days" and "My Yiddishe Mamma" to this Spektor video. I love Regina, this is i a style that suits her extremely well. But then again, she'd be good in the 20's,40's, 60',s or 2050. She's amazing, and the fact that her voice seems to span eras of music is a testament to talent.
I dont listen to her newer stuff that much, not that its bad, everything she does is amazing, but I'm in a old regina phase... but I cant stop listening to this... its so beautiful
Everything from her pronunciation to her vabrato (sp?) are altered to suit the era. Regina's really something special, the way she can so completely apply herself to a piece.
Still, she maintains her distinctive style, but that does nothing to compromise the whole of the performance.
I like this better then the one with the empire logo because I love seeing her beautiful face. Adds to the feel classical, beautiful feel it gives off.
Just finished the last episode of "Boardwalk Empire" and heard this song. Just recognized incredible Regina even though she doesn't sound like herself in this song. Brilliant, as always:)
Just heard this inmost nights episode of "BOARDWALK EMPIRE" and loved it. There is and always will be a market for music that has the sound of days gone by, thank goodness!
@dreca102 Maybe you should watch her duet with Tony Bennet... And I really hate it when people try to justify their comments with colloquialisms about Lady Gaga (because she is a classically trained prodigy), when they should really make them about other females singers like Ke$ha and such.
Everything Regina touches turns to gold, this included. I would love to hear her sing a mid-tempo "I'm in the Mood for Love" with this same type of instrument backing.
@271tixe - I totally disagree on the instrumental. She is wonderful and the song is wonderful but the instrumental needs updating and DeFalco Music Factory can do it and still keep the charm but increase the profitability by targeting 2011's demographics. Please see Willie J - I'm a Gangster - Boardwalk Empire.
This version sucks ass, Barbara sings it brings tears to my eyes, this lady brings blood to my ears
