Jenny Owen Youngs ft regina spektor - Voice On Tape

Lyrics:

Voice of Regina Spektor:
Jenny, um, I don't know if that's you, because that didn't sound like you, but you know, it's a funny world where machines could replace people. Whoever that was, tell Jenny that Regina called her. And P.S. I can't believe what he did

All the evidence points in one direction
Says I don't need you physically around
I've got your voice on tape
I've got your words in me
I don't want anything else
I don't want anyone else
Thing that I had but I dropped
All that I had but I dropped
I want you back and forth
I want you up and down
I want you inside out

Regina:
I was hoping you could keep me company for the ride home, but it's okay if you're sleeping

I've got your voice on tape
I've got your words in me
I don't want anything else
I don't want anyone else

And you say that I don't have this down
I've been practicing out loud

Other Voice:
[garbled] I just wanted to call to say hi, and um, I think I might bring Marissa and Tracy up to Topeka[garbled]

I want you back and forth
I want you up and down
I want you back and forth
(I've got your voice on tape)
I want you up and down
(I've got your words in me)
I want you back and forth
(Thing that I had but I dropped)

I don't want anyone
I don't need anyone else
(All that I had but I dropped)

I've got your voice on tape
I've got your words in me
I've got your voice on tape
(I've got your words in me)
I've got your words in me
(I've got your voice on tape)
I've got your voice on tape
(I've got your words in me)
I've got your words in me
(I've got your voice on tape
I don't want anything else
I don't need anyone else)

All the evidence points in one direction
Says I don't need you physically around

ohhhh finally I know its her for sure I always couldnt figure out if she was saying regine or regina and if it was really her. And I thought she said PS I cant believe what YOU did but i guess im wrong??

[spektography]

I thought she said this also, there are no lyrics for regina's talking section, what I have written above is what I believe them to be. After listening to the rest of the lyrics it would make more sense for her to say "he did" as this would comply with the direction of the track, not needing a relationship/boyfriend around anymore...???? :) ??

[CirclesInTheWater]

it doesnt seem like she is talking about a boy. i mean I don't see it anywhere, and she says ive got your voice on tape and you only hear female voices on the recordings. (the last one doesnt sound like Regina to me btw) First time I heard this I thought Regina and Jenny were gay or something.

[spektography]

"I can't believe what HE did", not "you". So, she's talking about someone else, calling her friend in the middle of the night to talk about it. And I think that Jenny is sitting listening to the voicemail from her friend, but she's thinking about someone else's voice on tape.

[spektography]

It's like, she's got this guy's voice on tape, and it sort of symbolizes the way we get obsessive about relationships, making up what we want them to be instead of seeing them for what they really are. As long as it's on tape she can imagine whatever she wants. And her friends are reaching in with the real world, but she's screening the calls living in her own world.
