regina spektor - Après Moi (Live)

[cynopt]

I should have drank more coffee. Or less coffee.

[FiendJesterChaos]

Normally I feel embarrassed for the singer when they forget lyrics. But when Regina does it, it's like inside I'm "Laughing With" her.

[Lisichka121]

Regina is very much not a lesbian... I studied with her, and she is not :-)

[woshamboo]

i wish regina was a lesbian, i'd have a slightly higher chance of being with her then :P

[18purplexxeyes]

Not only is Regina Spektor inspiring, but inspiring is Regina Spektor. She is simply gorgeous. Please watch me attempting at trying to capture a little of her essence on my channel. Thank you(:

[TheMovingPiano14]

my brother got a cd of her playing live from his friends for his 18th as a joke present. he now loves her.

[SilverIlly]

I LOVE when the crowd sings along with Regina. There is so much love in her fandom. There is so much love in her!

[HannahHasHabits]

I'M SO SICK OF THE LIVE VERSIONS.

Doesn't anyone have the original? Anyone??

[greynezz]

@HannahHasHabits her live versions are WAY better anyways. probably some studio ones floating around

[Evangeline30575]

She has said in an interview that she has or had a crush on Leonard Cohen but if she was a Lesbian it wouldn't bother me an ounce. If anything it would give her more in depth thought and more perception.

[titaboy123]

I love her to much!

It's not healthy!

I wanna keep her in a small jar in my room and look at her all day!!!!

[Shmoofles]

id be so devo if i went to see her live and she forget that particular part, its like my favorite regina spektor passage of all time!

[Vocalistic100]

Regina lol she is soooo silly. I love this song and clearly she does say After me comes the flood. She doesn't say it in one line but the rest of the lines she does, clearly you hear a "c" word after "after me".....just wanted to let that be known. I love this song and hope to sing it one day after I learn the russian part. I soooo thought it was french I was like aw......lol I think I can still learn it thanks to t.A.t.U

[mappsy91]

Peter gabriels cover of this is epic as well check it out

[superfluousness321]

Less coffee or more coffee. Regina has such a sense of humour in the face of something potentially embarassing. I wish I had that much grace.

[Appelsappel]

Album version on my channel ;)

[billbob654321]

Lol people is

after me the flood

not after me comes the flood

[Teresa64squared]

Amazing

[rockerlim]

What does apres moi, le deluge mean?

[chelinedanse]

Après moi le déluge = After me comes the flood

[MajikBooBear]

It means

After me comes the flood.

Neoplotin said that.

[frenchinsaneguy]

He never did.

Louis XV, king of France, fearing of the population already starting to rebel against the authority of the king, said that to express his feeling that after him, the revolution was probably going to happen. And he was right.

[xixioxaxe]

After me, even deluge.

[nesization]

Apres moi le deluge is a French expression that means something like:

I dont care what happens after I die

[AmanderPander]

@nesization

Well, it's "after me, the flood"

But figuratively, it could mean that :]

[annGerda]

This quatrain from a poem which is called "Февраль. Достать чернил и плакать" (February. Get ink, shed tears.) the known Russian poet Boris Pasternak(1890-1960)

;)

[bennylover90]

thank you very much ;)

[bennylover90]

pls, is there anyone who could translate me the russian part? guess she repeats the refrain but im not sure! thanks for posting it ;)

[annGerda]

Hi)

I from Russia. Here couplet transfer

Февраль. Достать чернил и плакать!

Писать о феврале навзрыд,

Пока грохочащая слякоть

Весною черною горит.

February. Get ink, shed tears.

Write of it, sob your heart out, sing,

While torrential slush that roars

Burns in the blackness of the spring.

[Koalaupagumtree]

I get the chiils listening to this song. after me comes a flood...

[Liz37AndAHalf]

this song gives me chills! i used to hate the "be afraid of the..." parts, but then that's half the song! i love it!

[cookiers]

I'm how to sing all my favorite songs, but this is a little more difficult

[theveronicas45987]

haha it's not a real regina Spektor concert without her forgetting some lyrics. :)

I love her!<333

[hannahbanana1218]

agreed!!!

[Utkajazzz]

@theveronicas45987 she forgot russian part)) everything in its right place))

[moretino]

I hopwe not lol cause she looks realy sweat ,but if she is its none of our business! shes great.

[moretino]

If shes lesbian or not, im not interested in her sexual activities but only in her music.

Shes has the purest voice that i hear from decades!!

Greatings from Portugal!!

FANTASTICO!!

[spektography]

I can assure you she is not. And I never understand the people who contemplate she could be. Regardless of this, it's none of our business anyway :)

[bennylover90]

yeah..the scaring thing is that some ppl thought she was because of the song "field below" like if there was an ambiguous meaning in the title..thats so crazy! who cares if she likes men or women shes got an amazing voice, shes so talented!

[ThesunniD]

@spektography Agreed. Even if she was, we would still love her anyway. Nothing wrong with that.

[MaziarTajick]

@moretino even without the gina I still respektor

[917BRUNO]

SHE BRING THE RAIN DANS MON COEUR

[FemmeEnigmatic]

derrrrrrp she didn't forget.

[ddsnickerz171]

Great song. I'm looking for good indie/alternative bands and singers.. any suggestions?

[RhymeNotReason]

lightning dust and devics :)

[Thestralsxxx]

Did she forget the Russian part? What happened?

[MNBTM]

haha. apparently.

but in her defense at least it wasn't one of those many situations where she forgot her own words.

besides. a it's not a good regina spektor concert unless she forgets something.

[SamthereforeIam]

This was the first song I ever heard by Regina. <3

[RaiMidori]

Beautiful. Just beautiful.

[IAmSuperMan1988]

*sigh*

I love her music

this is my favourite song

Thanks for sharing

<3 Maxx

[flippylittlecupcake]

I love her!
