Members 2shane8 Posted March 14, 2007 Members Share Posted March 14, 2007 And I know at least ONE other person on here thinks so, because I noticed her in a signature the other day. However, I was very busy at that moment and in the process of logging off, so I don't remember who 'twas. Anyway, both of her full-length albums, "Soviet Kitsch" and "Begin To Hope," are superb blends of intoxicating vocals and delicious melodies. She isn't really mainstream by any stretch, but she is getting some airplay for the single "Fidelity." Annoyingly, a lot of the press compares her to Tori Amos ("the new Tori") just because she is a woman playing piano. This is bullocks, because A) there will never be another Tori; and they really aren't that similar other than a penchant for sometimes-quirky lyrics, and the piano stuff. If anyone is a new Tori, then it's Charlotte Martin. So ... does anyone else like Regina? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R!ck Posted March 14, 2007 Members Share Posted March 14, 2007 It was me Shane I first heard her on CSI: New York. "Samson" was playing during the last scenes when Stella killed her abusive boyfriend. I looked the song up and listened to some more of her stuff, and became an instant fan. I bought "Soviet Kitsch" "Begin To Hope" and I just ordered "Mary Ann Meets the Gravediggers" I can't wait for her to go on tour. I think Keith & CRC are also fans.

Members Scotty Posted March 15, 2007 Members Share Posted March 15, 2007 Oh...so that's her in your signature. I think this is the first time I've ever noticed your new signature. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members David_Vickers Posted March 15, 2007 Members Share Posted March 15, 2007 Regina Spektor sucks. She's very, very, very, very annoying. Annoying as hell. I'm not a Tori Amos fan, but she's by far a better singer and performer. Spektor and Corinne Bailey Rae ( she should be named Corinne Boring Rae, as Lady Sovereign has said) are the worst 2 women singers to come along iin a long time.

Members R!ck Posted March 15, 2007 Members Share Posted March 15, 2007 Lady Sovereign is just jealous because her debut CD has only sold 50,000 copies, while Rae is about to go 3 times platinum. Of course both women are aquired tastes, and you either love them or hate them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 2shane8 Posted March 15, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 15, 2007 Mulder, I think this is one of the only times I've ever disagreed with you in three years! I absolutely love Regina Spektor, and find her to be amazing beyond words Luckily, we are not totally out of sync, because I CANNOT STAND Corinne Bailey Rae, and I agree that she is boring, dull, and has a noticeable lack of melody.

Members King Posted March 16, 2007 Members Share Posted March 16, 2007 Well not to be a pretentious music snob, but since I am......... Regina Spektor is in no way a new artist! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R!ck Posted March 16, 2007 Members Share Posted March 16, 2007 I realized that now But since people still don't know who she is, and I only discovered her a month ago, she's new to me Btw Mike, You still liking the Dresden Dolls? They are doing the gay rights tour "True Colors" with Cyndi Lauper, Erasure, Debbie Harry, and others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members David_Vickers Posted March 16, 2007 Members Share Posted March 16, 2007 The True Colors tour would be awesome. I love Cyndi Lauper and Debbie Harry. Erasure is cool too btw Cyndi & Debbie kick Corinne BORING Rae and Regina Spektor's untalented asses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members R!ck Posted March 16, 2007 Members Share Posted March 16, 2007 Well that I can totally agree with since we're comparing Cyndi and Debbie are my all time faves, and to see them together would be a dream. I could die a happy man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
