your music has saved my soul so many times, when my life have been dark and nothings going right, I play your songs over and over and listen to your story telling and words.
I don't know what I'd do without your beautiful voice, your my favorite artist of all time,
REGINA! thank you. thank you for coming to NY, thank you for being such an inspiration, thank you for being so real. I would stand through not only rain for you, but through snow, hail, tornadoes, and earthquakes. You were amazing in NY and i was right there in the front cheering you on. THANK YOU!!
Hey Regina! I just came back from seeing you in Brooklyn! Your songs are amazing! They've saved my life when times were hard. Anyway, I just wanted to say that you are an extremely generous and an extremely nice person, secondly, thank you for playing Apres Moi, it is one of my most favorite songs ever!
Best Regina Spektor You are great, you got a good voice and crazy good songs. PLEASE COME TO AMSTERDAM In Holland! Because manny people wanna to see you in holland please i know you dont read this but i tried =) I hope to see you live in the future
Just wanted to say thank you for your music and voice. Your music crosses generational boundries ... My 14 year old daughter introduced me to your music and my own mother in her 60's enjoys listening to you sing also. You are such a gift. Be safe always.
thanks for the add. ive become a fan since seeing the video for "fidelity" last year. also loved your version of "real love". planning any stops in san diego soon?
i was talking about you with my mother yesterday. i'm going to your concert august the 15th and my mother thought it was funny that you were performing in brooklyn, and i said it was because you like your russian homies and she said that you probably don't have a lot of those. so i just would really love to tell you that i am one of your russian homies and i will always be, whenever you near ny i will be there cheering you on. you have an amazing voice and you inspire me everyday, thank you.
Your music always gives me mucho mucho emotion and I usually end up scaring someone with the facial expressions I do when singing your songs in public places.
Seeing you last night in Philly was one of the most phenomenal experiences I believe I have ever had. I mean, I initially went to see Ani, because I've loved her since I was a child, but you truly blew me away, and gave me a lot of hope.
Thanks for the add I really appricate it Your such a great artist Your music is so amazing Whenever you sing it always seems like you are having so much fun I just started writing my own music Im no wheres as good as you are though Your such an inspiration Oh I just want to mention anyone is welcome to check out my music page and add me to thier friends I really could use all the support i can get If your reading this thanks for your time. Keep up the great work Regina your so amazing :)
Hi! I recently got into your music and I LOVE it! I first heard you when I saw Prince Caspian. "The Call" seriously made me cry and I listened to it on the way back home from my trip to Italy and I cried even more. Anyways, your music is beautiful and I can't wait to see you in New York in August. I have to say my favorite songs are The Call, Samson, Your Honor, That Time, and Hotel Song. Anyways, keep writing beautiful music. I hope to be as successful as you someday.
Regina! You've been the love of my life for years! :) ♥♥♥ Come play somewhere close to meee. I don't care if it's El Paso, Albuquerque or --even better-- Las Cruces. :) If Warped Tour can come to New Mexico State University, so can you!
Hey, thanks for the add. I just recently got into your music. I first heard Fidelity, but only snippets of the staccatoed parts and for a while couldn't find who sang it or the name. Finally I stumbled across you from Samson -one of my favorite songs- and was so excited to find that you sang Fidelity. lol. You have a great voice- very unique and different from all the pop stars who sound the same these days. Haha. <3 -j
Thank you for the add. Love you so much, your lyrics are brilliant and funny (they always put up a smile on my face when I am feeling sad and listening to your music).. hope you come one day to Romania. Thanks for existing. Hugs and best wishes. =)
I heard your song "The Call" on Narnia 2 and it is really amazinggg! i am obsessedddd. so you need to make it a myspace song so we can put it on there.
I saw Prince Caspian today, and I fought with all my heart to not cry at the end. If it wasn't hard enough, your voice began to sing and I lost it. The song was absolutely wonderful and set the perfect tone. Coincidentally, I listened to Begin to Hope on the way to the theater. I can't wait to hear more from you soon.
