  • Does anyone know there that video is of her talking about how theres an astounding amount of kids at this show, something like a field trip, so she played that one song where she gets really vulgar and throws out the fuck word a million times

  • i would have loved to been a kid in that crowd, they should been considered lucky for even seeing her perform that close, for watever song she sing. And plus all of them dont even understand the inapropriate parts

  • Honestly? THIS IS INNAPROPRIATE?! What about all of those crappy rap songs explicitly singing about sex and drugs? Compared to that crap, this song's a disney song.

  • umm i keep reading comments about how this is inapropriate but is it inapropriate to let kids know the truth instead of fantasies if you ask me its the mature thing to do, its childish if you keep the truth away because that only ends up hurting them and plus i think this teaches better lessons than hannah montanah

  • Pink and green.... MDMA and Weed.... 

  • such weird comments on this video... i am confused........

  • yo,

    Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum

    Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum

    is nothing for kids.

    Now back into your box, called boring educator existence.

  • sounds like lisa kudrow doing smelly cat.

  • @karlharlequin I don't know if I like this statement or not. I still laughed at it.

  • @karlharlequin lmao! I love regina but that statement was absolutely hilarious xDDD

  • this is so cool! its not often we get to see regina spektor playing the guitar

  • JUICY!!!

  • what is this supposed fourth note you speak of... its just E, G#, A... isnt it?

  • @ScurvyDog3 Yeah it's three notes.

  • It is amazing what she can do with 3 notes.

  • 4 notes actually :-)

  • so amazing.

  • Iove Regina s2

  • regina is incredible. tower records WAS amazing until they had to shut them down...

  • such a simple melody!

  • i lke the video by lizardlewi about this song. it's cool

  • I wish people would stop talking about what is appropriate or not for kids. When I was growing up, though they showed discretion, my parents never tried to hide the big bad world from me and I am eternally grateful for it. They encouraged me to be curious. I am 15 years old now, and being informed about what drugs were from a young age (it would come up in a movie, for example, and my parents would explain what drugs were and why people weren't supposed to do them) did not cause me to do them!

  • In fact, I take a strong stance against them.

  • i didnt know she was a children person

    and what kind of parent would choose what they listen to? that is freekishh and dont reply saying who do you think you are saying that because i can just say im a child with parents who let me listen to what i want because i have TAASSTE...

  • i didnt know regina was childrens material....

    (???)

  • i'd rather my children listened to regina spektor than britney spears and all that lovely stuff

  • uhhh. I'm like 13, and I've loved Regina for a couple years now.

    so it really isn't inappropriate gwoman or whatever.

    and if anything, Disney channel makes children immature; that's why I haven't watched since like 3rd grade.

  • seriously!!!!!!!!! all the kids in my class watch disnye channel or south park. immature

  • i'd definitely "let" my 12 year old daughter to regina respektor. it's all life. and harmony, too. like gdf mozart, yeah

  • Highly inappropriate?

    Its Regina Spektor.

    ...seriously.

  • She has some songs about sex and drugs, but honestly it's very (well, mostly) tastefully done, and it sounds great.

    Honestly, that Disney stuff gives them unrealistic expectations. Hannah montana teaches little kids that everyone can be a star, and that is untrue, while Regina Spektor's songs are not only better, but they are about real life and real situations, which honestly appeals way more to me.

  • God,Hannah Montana is always the same lame story and so dumb it hurts.

    And i think reginas songs are way deeper than that hannah montana slash miley cyrus crap.

    so yes,agreed.

  • duh, your talking exact opposites in terms of lyrics XD

  • reginaa!!! vem pro brasil malandrinha!!!

  • Vem tocar no Brasil, Regina!!!

  • I love this song, but there were kids there?...

  • why wouldn't there be kids there?

  • So. Kids need to know about overdosing.

  • THEY DO.

  • gwoman23: Seriously? I doubt those kids even know what the phrase OD means; and if they do, good for them -- hopefully they'll know better than to do something so stupid.

  • what you let your kids listen to Disney songs?? what is wrong with you? let them listen to Regina!!

  • Disney encourages children to have unrealistic expectations, and to not be curious about life. Letting a child grow up with their own opinions and tastes, however, encourages decision making and coming into their own as a person. Besides, Disney does nothing to teach children about the bad things in the world out there, it just teaches the children that those bad things don't exist. People are never "ready" to learn about drug abuse and other aspects of adult and teenage life, but it's necessary

  • Disney teaches kids bad things don't happen? Bullcrap! Mufasa died in The Lion King! That broke my little heart and I was never the same after... I could barely watch The Little Mermaid when Triton gets turned into one of those little squirmy things by Ursula without crying.

    PS I hope someone realizes I had a smile on my face when I wrote this. Relax.

  • After this comment, I feel so sad to say that I cried three times during the Lion King II. XD

  • @gwoman23 I went to a school for about a year that wouldn't let students watch disney movies..

  • @platypae333 the fuck O_0

  • @94bananapancakes It was a peruvian waldorf. I was like... four.

  • Mufasa confronted our generation with the idea of death and loss, those kids who hadn't experienced it yet learnt from it. Works the same way with pets.

  • lol ... i know right but it's their parent's fault

  • Don't like it when everyone's laughing at her friend OD'ing...Amazing song, and u only find out what it's about at the end. Not meant to be funny :)

    She is amazing.

  • LOL

    So cheap & juicy!

    <3

  • That line is why this is my favourite Regina Spektor song. :D

  • lol i love it..and is she trying to make it sound like pot just before she says parliaments? if so omg, thats really creative

  • She is amazing.

  • <3 <3 <3. i'm running out of things to say about this woman. shes amazing.

  • i just love the part when she goes "so cheap and juicy!"

    i just love her! :)

  • Aaaaaah! I love her : )

  • she makes up great little stories forn her songs sings them so well..........

  • nice guitar...

  • Oh deary me, I have a lot of clown statues waiting for me by now.

  • spektor=charisma!!!

  • its different backing track to the video!

  • this wasn't at a school, it was at a record store, and there mayb have been like 3 kids. everyone was teens/adults

  • LOL yeah when i read happyquails246 comment i was wondering what fucking kids he/she wer talking about.

  • don`t torch russian women or we attack youк country)))!!!!

  • ahhaha i like

  • is this really a song for children :P

  • Well, no not at all =P

    It was never implied to be, she's simply playing it at a place where they sell the album it's on and some dumb parents decided to bring their kids lol

  • I do remember that time when I would only read the backs of cereal boxes haha.

  • LOL me too. Also the smokes thing, only certain brands, not the ones she mentioned though

  • So Cheap And Juicy !!

  • very very cool

  • Super

  • she is mazing in every performance *O*

    and that tangerines part is so funny :D

  • audio/video out of sync. phail.

  • For some reason, I can't stop listening to this song. It's so fun and fiesty yet someone elegant and reflective. And Regina has a gorgeous voice.

  • I think it's meant to be mainly reflective...last verse gives it away :)

  • this is definately her best.

    yum. tangerines.

    :)

  • pretty much her best song!!!!!!!

  • Me encanta!!  ♥

  • I love Regina Spektor.Her voice is too amazing.

  • shes a beast i love her

  • my favorite regina spektor song =)

  • its funny how she is talking about ODing and smoking and there are all these little kids running around and adults are in the background laughing!!!

  • Yes, Delancey-- a street in San Francisco.

  • pretty sure she's actually referring to delancey st. in greenwich village maybe neither

  • greenwich

    cos that's where she lives, and i plan to go and find her. who's with me? lets give her tangerines. soo cheep and jUIcy!

  • ohhh i'm coming!

  • I think its delancey, like a street name, but I could be wrong

  • she is my hero;

    ahh regina spektor.

    she is gorgeous too

    and her voice is unique

    :D

  • is she saying "remember that time i found a human tooth down on Valensi?"

  • what's with all the little kids? i like this song, never heard it before. i wonder if she actually smokes. its funny how everyone who listens to her music, including me, assumes she must be this completely innocent little person just because she's cute and her voice is beautiful.

  • dude, just sound it out, its like 4 single notes, not even chords

  • you dont even know what your talking about.

  • why does this keep on getting thumbs down? he's right. if you look at the strumming she's not strumming al six strings, not even four strings, so it can't be actual chords. And if you listen it is the same few notes over and over again, and that's not an insult: the quality of a song doesn't depend on how complex it is.

  • 3 notes E, G#, and A.

  • does anyone know where i can find the tabs for this?

  • nyc one marlboro

  • ella es lo mejor!!!!

  • she is good

    it isn't her best song

    i wish i was there

  • I adore her.

  • Wow there is hardcore Voice lag....

  • awesome job:)

  • luv it

  • what kind of guitar is that?

  • gretsch G6120 hollowbody

    i've got two of those and man are they sweet.

    Pricey too, love regina, but i think that guitar is too expensive for as simple as that song is.

  • the expense of a guitar has nothing to do with what you choose to play with it. Simple or complex, a song is a song. You expected her to play it on a cheap guitar just because the song is simple?

  • you're right, it has nothing to do with it. i'm just saying that she could of saved 2500 dollars by playing a 500 dollar guitar or whatever. I'm not saying she has to play an Ibanez or whatever, but it's just a few notes and Gretsch guitars are usually reserved for more than just a few notes, but that's just my point of view though, to each his own.

  • I have a feeling she didn't buy this guitar just to play this one song...

  • Look closer, piglips, it's an Epiphone, not a Gretsch.

  • It's a Limited Edition Epiphone Wildkat. :)

  • love this song. hated how you could hear people laugh in the video when she said "remember that time when you ODed" though

  • Her guitar is so cool!

    and i love her smokey and deep voice

  • i love this one u_u... its my second favorite after samson and on the radio

  • beautiful <3 even LIVE :D

  • So cheap and JUICY~ ^^

  • love her!

  • I <3 his song. My 3rd fave of hers ever, after fidelity and samson.

  • i love how she said "so cheap and juicy!" she's so cool

  • This soo is great! so hilarious and original....i dont think its a song for little kids though..lol

  • I must make a T-shirt that says:

    On the front: Boxes of tangerines...

    On the back: So cheap and JUICY!

  • Oh yeah! I would wear it all the time!

  • o.k. is it just me or do the words in this video not match with the rest of what's going on

  • its not just you. cant that be reset?

  • I don't know it looks they might have footage from one show and then audio from a different I don't know I won't hold it against the video though who ever brought it to us went to great lengths and I was happy to see it even if it was off time

  • Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    She is soooooo great!!!

  • She's the woman that sings about the truth to a bunch of a kids (like stuff, other grown-ups won't tell kids), like phoebe does in an episode of friends. Just brilliant!

  • "So cheap and juicy! Hahaha!"

    s2 xDD

  • Hahahaha she's singing that song with a bunch of kids in the audience. I simply love her.

  • Haha yeah... "Hey remember that time when u OD-d"... and audience is full of lil kids (they are so sweet btw :D )

  • Regina's a great singer and storyteller. There aren't many of those anymore.

  • She has an amazing voice and she's very talented! I love her!!

  • I Love this song, I play it non stop-completely amazing!!

  • me too!!

  • me3

  • Same

  • me 5!

  • me 6 :D

  • i don't understand... wasn't it a live performance? why on earth then, mainly in the end, it does not seem that she was really singing and playing but that it was playback? is it just a matter of sound and image not being synchronized?

  • the video got messed up, some bad cameras do that to you. It sucks, but no, she's singing.

  • Because the camera doesn't play the noise and movement together.

  • I LOVE HER SONGS! THEIR SO CUTE!

  • go regina spektor you rock and im your 1 fan!!!!!!!

  • es tan talentosa esta mujer. que envidia!!! me hace sentir tan inutil jeje.

  • This is one of my favorite Regina songs....I thought I was the only one who laughed when she says, "So cheap and JOO-CY!" (yeah I know it's juicy).

  • beautiful song, so real!

  • <3 Regina for swearing in front of children!

  • ...when'd she swear?

  • Right at the end "I hallucinated I could read your mind, and I was on a lot of shit too but what I saw..."

  • ah yes, i realized that when i listened to it again, haha.

  • Haha i love the 'So cheap and juicy' part. But the rest of the song is ofcourse wonderful, as is all of Regina's songs. Love her <3

  • Why does that little boy get up in the begining? Doesn't he realize he is how privilaged he is to hear her sing? :)

  • clearly not...he's like 4, dude.

  • okay, why wasn't this a single???

  • why did they cut off the end!? Even though the video is out of sync.......it's still enchanting

  • i think it was over.. :o

  • it was almost over.....the video was but sound wisnae

  • it kinda ticks me off that the little kid's wandering round in the front at the beginning.
