Far

Regina Spektor is someone who doesn't need to be mainstream to have good music, she has created wonderful soul searching songs that I personally could listen to for hours. She does not need to sing songs hat have no meaning to her to be a good artist. She inspires me to speak my mind and not let anyone change it and I am very surprised she has not become hugely famous for her talented works. Thank you Regina for creating such beautiful music I hope you continue.

Regina is so inspirational! I absolutely love her vocalizing and piano music! :D her music is very unique. My favorite song on this album is Blue Lips <3

I'm all for artist independence and artistic self direction, but maybe she needs someone to tell her what to sing and how to sing it, because she can't seem to get out of her own way to let her beautiful voice star instead of her personality. All of music is the worse for it. She's an odd bird. More rambling and random lyrics that are often about nothing at all but what was on her mind. Why can't she just sing instead of putting her personality into it? Sing some standards maybe? For instance, Folding Chair is mostly a wonderful song and then she throws out this hiccup like dolphin sound and completely ruins it. Like i'm supposed to go "ooh she's not afraid to be odd and unique!" She doesnt have a voice for that kind of crap. She has the voice of a classy vocalist, but she attempts to turn songs that could be new standards into some female version of a brain damaged Primus song. Her voice is perfect, her music is a tragedy. It's so empty and pretentious, yet not shallow. How pointless is that? And, my God, how hard up do you have to be for material to use finding a wallet as inspiration?? Several songs are that "this is what i did today" bland. Really weak writting. Overall what bothers me most about all of her albums is that i have to wade through soo much crap to get to the good pieces of her music.

As a fan of Regina's Begin To Hope and Soviet Kitsch eras, I enjoyed the songs on this album. I did feel a much more poppy essence among the music generally. However, Far is a heartfelt album, and I really enjoyed the songs I purchased. She clearly did some incredible writing for this album, and I'm happy I purchased the songs I did (1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9). In addition to those, I also love 2, 11, and 12. This woman is just beautiful in so many ways. I appreciate her being in the music-making world.

This is the best album I've ever listened to in my life. I always get tired of musicians after a few months of listening, but this album is the exception. Over 2 years later and I am still absolutely in love with every single song.

I love this record!! Her singing is so sweet, effortless and full of emotion. She takes risks with her vocalizing and never fails. This album makes me look forward to what is yet to come but in the meantime I will be spinning this one on repeat. Over and over and over again...

Far is Regina's best album. I just wish she made more albums like this!!!!!!!!

I downloaded this song a/f hearing a small portion on the new HBO series ENLIGHTENED. I fell in love INSTANTLY! I listen to it over and over again! Something a/b the way the instruments (LOVE PIANO)/her voice swells, then becomes quiet throughout gives it a dramatic effect. It makes me shed a tear here and there, depending on my mood. It is also very empowering because of this dramatic effect. Just LOVE it! At some point soon, I'll purchase the entire album.

This is a really great album. I love how every track is all piano. Some songs are upbeat, while others are sadder. Favs are: Eet, Blue Lips, Machine,Two Birds, Genius Next Door
