She`s absolutely great woman and singer.Her music protect me from deep depression.
My fav are Apres moi and Better

 

[Jenna-maria]

Apres moi is definetly one of my favourite songs from her too.
I can listen it all over and over again

Regina did such a good job on SNL! Drew gave Regina one of the best and most befitting introductions ever. I had no idea they were friends in real life.

Oh, me eather!

She looks so cute wearing this white dress with bow!

^ Lucky for me I can play Apres Moi. She has a very consistent pattern when she writes her music. It's very similar to each other.

I really Folding Chair. It's a good one!

 

[Jenna-maria]

^ folding chair makes me allways smile, such a cute little song!
also I like Samson...it is one of my comfort songs.
oh wow, you can play apres moi...i am so jelous!

 

[bymelove]

Me too, all her songs are really comforting to me.

It's not hard at all. Hopefully you can read music because it's actually a simple piece. She writes a lot of her music the same exact way.

There is a Yahoo! Group called RegiSpek where users upload her sheet music, both official sheet music (from her company) and transcriptions (from piano players who listen and write down what they hear). Hope that is some help to anyone who wants to play!

Went to see Regina at the Fillmore Auditorium on the 7th. MARVELOUS.
The best part? Telling someone to STFU.


shot by friend

I went to that show! I had to put my dog to sleep that Saturday morning so I was pretty bummed, but she definitely cheered me up

 

[papa_levante]

I wish I had taken that picture ^ she's all kinds of sweet there

My friend got hella close. He handed Regina the flowers to Regina at the beginning of the concert! I was probably, erm, 5th row-ish.

She's an amazing songwriter. I have a great time decoding the biblical and literary allusions in her lyrics.

I really like the two songs of hers that they used in 500 Days of Summer - Us and Hero.

Other favorites: Eet, Pound of Flesh, Laughing With

 

[papa_levante]

^ Ah, she has such great songs!

Summer in the City
Musicbox
Folding Chair
One More Time With Feeling
Man With a Thousand Faces
Poor Little Rich Boy

and of course,
Samson

 

[Jenna-maria]

Riot Gear is my new obsession song from her. It just cheers me up!!!

 

[papa_levante]

That is a good song! I'm glad to see you have such good taste, Jenna-maria.

 

[ckgirlbr]

I'm in love with Laughing With.

 

[papa_levante]

^ Come to my house. I can play it for you. I memorized it within hours because it's the same 7 chords over and over again!

 

[ckgirlbr]

If you come to mine I can try to play Someday.

 

[Jenna-maria]

That is a good song! I'm glad to see you have such good taste, Jenna-maria.

*hahhah* thankyou
