a merry melody from Regina Spektor

Regina9b_1I was listening to the latest Regina Spektor song, Fidelity in the car while running my errands today and couldn’t help not to get this merry melody in my head. 

So there I am… pushing my grocery cart down the cereal isle singing (in my head of course) ha..ah.ah..ah.ah.ah…ah…ah. ah.ah.. ha .ah ..ah. ha heart"…. you’ll see what I mean when you watch her lovely video.

Here’s what they say about her latest album, "The style known as "anti-folk," as realized by practitioners like Ani DiFranco and Billy Bragg, is derived from a punk aesthetic, and thus tends to be spare and confrontational. But while Regina Spektor’s music is anti-folk in the way it subverts the traditional coffeehouse vibe, it’s less interested in rebellion and more concerned with the joy of eccentricity, melody and surprise.  It’s a consistently intelligent and daring record, yet remains enormously listenable–a neat trick for anti-folk, or any other genre of music for that matter." –Matthew Cooke
