lately I've been listening to

Regina Spektor's latest album, Far.  When we were roommates two years ago, Ali used to play some of her older stuff and I was not into it.  I guess since then I have acquired more of an Indie taste.  Regina has some weird lyrics, but she actually has a very powerful voice and a unique sound.  Some of my favorites are "Blue," "Dance Anthem of the 80s", and "Riot Gear."  In Blue she sings, "blue lips, blue veins, blue the color of our planet from far, far away. blue...the most human color."  I guess that's something to ponder.  We always end up laughing in an attempt to interpret her lyrics.
