Begin to Hope

Regina Spektor

Polished piano-pop that retains its anti-folk soul. Whimsical storytelling meets beat-driven production in a definitive New York indie document.

Moments Worth Listening For
The rhythmic, percussive vocal hiccups that drive the hook of Fidelity
The transition from delicate piano to the thunderous Russian-language bridge in Après moi
The devastatingly sparse re-recording of Samson where the piano feels like it is weeping
