Walk-a-walk-a-walk-a-walk-a-walk

Ok, this isn't supposed to be a music site, but it just happens that there are a lot of albums coming out recently that I like (spring time?)

Anyway, if you like Rufus Wainright (I used to like him more, but his latest album left me wanting some) you may like to hear Regina Spektor, who in some way reminds me of Rufus, just a little more feminine -maybe.

If you listen to Pavlov's Daughter on the 11:11 album, she sounds like what I imagine Rufus and Nelly McKay's daughter would sound like - if anyone could ever get Rufus to XXX with Nelly that is...

Go to her site.

Click on "music"

Click on the "Soviet Kitsch" cassette tape.

Now, that is not what reminded me of Rufus, but it is the song that turned me on to her. For the Rufus reminder:

Click on "Video"

Click the "play" button on the video player.

When you are done listening to that, don't forget to keep watching (or click the fast forward button to see the next video) the "Survival Guide to Soviet Kitsch - Intro" is also kinda Rufus.

The third video is so cool is so cool is so cool.

Great stuff.

So am I wrong to be reminded of Rufus when he was good?

UPDATE:

That was rude of me. After listening to more of her (you can hear a lot on her site) I realize she is *many times greater* then Rufus. I should never have compared them. I appologize, Regina.

UPDATE 2:
And listen to "Consequence of Sounds" on the Songs album. Wow this excites me.
