Regina Spektor is one of the VERY few talented songwriters of my generation, therefor people like Peter Gabriel should refrain from butchering her music.
@Bodhi186 Quit your whining. If someone from the 80s has to cover a Regina Spektor song, Peter Gabriel's your man. Can you imagine if *ugh* Madonna tried to cover this?
If you're going to cover a Regina Spektor song you better cover the whole thing. He left out the russian lyrics from the song! I would have totally loved it if it wasn't for that. Plus his wailing was...interesting. Close but no cigar sir.
Gabriel is a Master, but he just can't resist young female vocalists ... as with Sinead O'Connor - then when they become obsesed with HIM he takes out a restraining order!
'Tuesday Morning in September' is a two hour account of 9/11. It very well may be the only account of 9/11 that shows the day in chronological order. It has a beginning, a middle, and an end. Please "Like" our Facebook Page to keep updated about this 9/11 project:
It's pretty good cover n' other bla-bla-bla, but without russian part it's not Apres Moi yet.

@thevampirefrog06 Agreed, but Peter Gabriel was quite ahead by the 80's. Listen to his Genesis stuff, it's brilliant.

Fucking brilliant. It's a cover, but it's a completely different music. Very good, very so very good.
