Regina Spektor is amazing, and it's never more obvious than with this song. So good.

Anyone else here heard of her?

I really can't get into her music (too spunky and upbeat for my taste, typically), but she's definitely one of the most talented artists in mainstream indie (if you can even use that phrase) right now.

The majority of her songs are upbeat, yeah. But she has quite a few more somber, sad ones (like the one I posted in the OP) and those are mainly my favorites.

See, if that song is considered somber, she's way to chipper for me. I might go through her latest album, because she really is crazy good. I always appreciate when a singer can write the and play the music she performs.

The lyrics are what's somber in that song, not the melody. And seriously, they are some good lyrics. That's how it usually is with her songs - a fast, chippy beat masking brilliant and dark lyrics.

This is how it works
You're young until you're not
You love until you don't
You try until you can't
You laugh until you cry
You cry until you laugh
And everyone must breathe
Until their dying breath

No, this is how it works
You peer inside yourself
You take the things you like
And try to love the things you took
And then you take that love you made
And stick it into some
Someone else's heart
Pumping someone else's blood

you kidding me bro

go out of your way to be contrary somewhere else

I love Regina Spektor. Her songs are all so happy and the fact she writes her own songs unlike half the people nowadays. Shes not someone I listen to on a regular basis though.
