  • This is actually called "Open" on her new album What We Saw From The Cheap Seats but when I found this that wasn't so clear. Anyways. :)
    sorry its kind of a bad recording but it's the best i could find, enjoy!

    lyrics:
    I am down the road and up the hill
    I wait for you still
    wires around my fingers
    potentially lovely
    perpetually human
    suspended and open
    open...
    I am through the woods and past the trains
    I wait here in vain
    scrubbing out the stains again
    potentially lovely
    perpetually human
    suspended and open
    open...
    open up and up your eyes and then...
    in a night the snow starts falling
    and everybody stares
    through their windows at the streetlights
    too beautiful to see
    I am in a room I've built myself
    four stray walls
    one floor, one ceiling
    and day after day I wake up feeling...
    potentially lovely
    perpetually human
    suspended and open
    open...

    How can you talk when such a beautiful piece is being played by such an adorable artist? I don't understand the human race.

    Who could have thought the word "open'" would ever be so breathtaking?

    This song is actually called Open, it's in her new album, What We Saw From the Cheap Seats, released this year. Regina Spektor is amazing.

    @IAintOverYet I WANTED TO GO TO THAT SO BADLY. It was on my birthday, in my favourite city. Unfortunately, it would be too expensive to get me there . . .
    It's pretty upsetting that some of the people who were there weren't appreciative of such talent. Regina is just. So. Wonderful. Why can't everyone see that?

    DEAR LORD BACKGROUND AUDIENCE! If she starts to sing louder doesn't mean for you to get louder! She has a beautiful voice and yet they are probably talking about what they had for dinner or their plans tomorrow, or the cutest thing their cat did that morning... Anyways I love her and her music!

    Yep I know. At the time it was more unknown so I wan't sure of the name, thanks though.:)

    Some of the crowd at the charity event at the MoMA this March was the same way...they talked the entire time (visit my page for all the songs I recorded that night). Not everyone was there to see her perform, and it was quite evident. But that does not excuse outright rudeness. She politely asked them to keep it down (not necessarily in those words) several times, but to no avail. And she was not drunk. I'm sure deep down she was hurt, but she went on with the show for those who love her music.

    @poorusernamechoice That's good to hear. She's a really driven person & stands up for herself as you say. Perfect balance and she's gorgeous too.

    yeah the audience is being disrespectful but i think it makes the song all the more poetic and really adds something cool to the recording, gotta say i like it better than the studio version

    @Lukas9314 She has performed in South America, so you do have a shot at seeing her (you're just gonna have to travel to the mainland when she does come).

    @zonalGman92 Actually, I just heard saw a performance of her where the audience was being loud, and I think she was a bit drunk because she just stopped and said in her cute little voice, "hey will you shut up?" It made my day.

    I've heard this song called as "Open" and "Down the Road and Over the Hill". Kinda reminds me of Sword & Pen in the beginning piano part.

    The first day after I moved, I woke up at 11:11 from Regina's Songs. The Live In London is better than the Live At Bull Moose, because the Soviet Kitsch is Far away. So I could finally Begin To Hope that What We Saw From The Cheap Seats was just an illusion...

    This is also known as "Down The Road", you may find a better version under that name.

  • @zonalGman92

    This is a beautiful song & the audience does seem somewhat disrespectful of her. I've heard that Joni Mitchell has just walked off if the audience is too busy having a chat at the bar or chatting someone up to listen to her play, but I guess she is already such a legend she can get away with it. But I think it is ill mannered to talk when the artist is playing. If u wanna do that go outside.

  • @Jimdica
    @Jimdica 12 лет назад

    This is a wonderful song, as are most of her songs, but these comments about not talking while she is playing almost seems contrary to what Regina so eloquently conveys in her music. Be free have fun. No one is disrespecting or disrupting her performance and it seems no more distracting than all the people who just have to use their phones to capture video of the show and post it on youtube ;) If you get lost in her music you dont even hear the background noise. Dont let others bring you down.
