tuneage : everyone deserves good music

Regina Spektor - “Wallet”

This track is off Regina Spektor’s latest album entitled far which comes out today! Not only do I love the story in this song, but I think it really represents the overall feel to the album.

Regina had the opportunity to work with the following four producers on this album: Mike Elizondo (Dr. Dre, Fiona Apple), David Kahne (Regina’s last album, The Strokes), Garret “Jacknife” Lee (REM, Weezer) and Jeff Lynne (ELO, Traveling Wilburys), who produced this track. Even with the handful of producers, each bringing very different backgrounds and their own style to the table, far is a cohesive collection of some of Regina’s greatest work.

Also, of all the songs that manage to sneak in a reference to a Blockbuster card (is there more than one?), this might just be the best one.
