I was first exposed to Regina Spektor during the final credits of Kubo and the Two Strings. Lots of other people already knew her from the theme song of Orange is the New Black. Now she is one of my favorite stations on Pandora.
I got into this band shortly before going vegan. I'm not sure that was a coincidence. Favorite album this past year!
It still is your option what path to choose
Don't let the only change you make be in your views
Like if you can't fight everything why bother to try
You can learn from the hypocrisies you used to deny
Is it all a charade or do you actually mean it
Do your ideals only surface when it's politically convenient
You're stuck in society's trap and although you're tryin to cope
If you can't change yourself, you'll lose more than just hope
Sometimes I have the insight to know that I only love the 80s because a lot of this music was played by my family in my childhood, and I saw those movies like Heathers, Breakfast Club and The Last American Virgin at an impressionable age and in young adulthood this tendency was further reinforced by my hipster boyfriends.
But then there are a few pieces, songs like Under the Milky Way by The Church, and this one, which I know are just good music, apart from nostalgia.
I'm so jealous of anyone going to Glacier National Park that I've known since I was six years old I am going to Montana. Montana is like if West Virginia where I was born and California where I live now ate hallucinogenic mushrooms and had a baby. Montana is my old people destiny.
Also as a scientist I need to study glaciers and grizzly bears, don't question me.
