Regina Spektor is a Russian-American singer, songwriter, and classically-trained pianist who grew up in Moscow and New York City.

Oh, an incurable humanist you are
Oh, an incurable humanist you are
You are
You are… are you
Oh, an incurable humanist you are
Oh, an incurable humanist you are

Let’s go to the movies
I will hum you a song about nothing at all
Let’s go to the movies
Nothing at all
Nothing at all
Oh, an incurable humanist you are
Oh, an incurable humanist you are
You are
You are
Let’s go to the movies
I will sing you a song about nothing at all
Let’s go to the movies
Nothing at all
Sit down, class
Open up your text books to page forty-two

Regina Spektor official bio:
Born in the Soviet Union, Regina Spektor (Регина Спектор) began studying classical piano when she was six. Her family emigrated in 1989, landing in New York City, where she continued her classical training. Spektor eventually studied composition at the Conservatory of Music at Purchase College where she graduated with honors. She began writing pop songs in her late teens and made her recorded debut in 2001 with the self-released 11:11, a collection of songs heavily influenced by jazz and blues. Songs followed in 2002 and Soviet Kitsch in 2004. Spektor’s commercial breakthrough came in 2006 on her fourth LP, Begin to Hope. The gold-certified album included the singles “On the Radio,” “Better” and “Fidelity,” which climbed the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. Spektor’s fifth album, Far released in 2009, and sixth album, What We Saw From the Cheap Seats released in 2012, both debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 albums chart.
Spektor’s songs have appeared in TV shows and movies including Orange Is The New Black, Grey’s Anatomy, Weeds, How I Met Your Mother, Veronica Mars, The Good Wife and (500) Days of Summer. Spektor played for the Obamas and guests at the White House and performed as part of philanthropic campaigns for Tibet, Doctors Without Borders, and many more. Her most recent tours included her first concerts in her native Russia plus sold out shows at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, The Royal Albert Hall in London and two nights at Sydney Opera House in Australia.
Spektor’s seventh album is entitled Remember Us To Life. The album has received extensive critical praise. Rolling Stone declared that Remember Us To Life wraps underdog storytelling in brilliant songcraft” and Esquire described Regina as “our generation’s Joni Mitchell” adding that “[Spektor] has long made a habit of spinning fictional, winding tales into songs that utilize humor and absurdity for the purpose of pointed social commentary. Her new LP is no different.”
