Regina Spektor - Eet
“It’s more about the sound than the food intake,” she says in reference to the phonetic spelling of her song “Eet.” The spelling hearkens back to Spektor’s childhood: She was born in Moscow and came to the U.S. at the age of 9. She had to learn English, and she initially knew words only by their sound. — NPR blah blah with Spektor
Far is full of goodies and Regina is full of little vocal idiosyncrasies that I fancy. Like her sounding out cymbals at the end of “Eet”, exhaling ooos (while being punched in the stomach?) on “Folding Chair”, or going Kate Bushy on some of her Hooked Into Hooked Into Machine’s.
