thanks vfery much to corks finest, ali for getting me on to her music, i have to say shes one of the most orginal talents ive heard for a long time...what do you lot think?!

marloes · 05-12-2005, 04:41 PM

I was just chatting to Tricia, and she sent me 2 of her songs, after I said I didn't like her very much when I saw her open up for Kings of Leon 2 years ago, I was seriously unimpressed then. It was all a bit too cute for me then, but the songs Trish sent me definitely sound more mature and if I can find her new cd I'll definitely have a listen.

yeah, i made trish go to her gig last week, and she's turned into a superfan, i am a disciple of kitschiest russian/new yorker, check her out www.reginaspektor.com

Oh! I think I read an article about her in the Boston Globe and was intrigued, but never got around to looking into her stuff.
I'm excited to hear some of this.

Regina Spector (her label's new spelling) is astonishing. Along with Missy Higgins she is one of the finest new female singer songwriters I've heard.

my friend went to see her(lucky bum), and sent me two or three tracks, Samson is amazing, i love the way she sings the word "samson" so loving, it's a beautiful song and i think she might do really well. her sound is so pure and heart-felt it's enough to draw a tear.
