Can't help it, this album is just really good. Really sweet and happy sounding.
Regina Spektor - Begin to Hope
I never loved nobody fully
Always one foot on the ground
And by protecting my heart truly
I got lost in the sounds
I hear in my mind
All of these voices
I hear in my mind all of these words
I hear in my mind all this music
And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart
And suppose I never met you
Suppose we never fell in love
Suppose I never ever let you kiss me so sweet and so soft
Suppose I never ever saw you
Suppose we never ever called
Suppose I kept on singing love songs just to break my own fall
Just to break my fall
Just to break my fall
Break my fall
Break my fall...
-Regina Spektor, an excerpt from "Fidelity"
She breaks up the words heart and fall into about 8 syllables in a way that sounds kind of like scatting (is that the right word? Like with blues, or Ella Fitzgerald...you know what I mean?) and it's just...neat. I've seen links for YouTube music vids if you just google her. Didn't see one for this song, but I wasn't really looking.
