Nació en Moscú y creció en Nueva York. Hija de músicos, cuentan que de niña Regina Spektor soñaba con ser concertista de piano –instrumento que toca desde los seis años-, pero durante su adolescencia descubrió nuevos –para ella- estilos como el jazz y el pop, enamorándose de la música de Tom Waits y Radiohead.
Tras el éxito de sus primeros álbumes, en mayo del 2012 se editó What we saw from the cheap seats. Producido por Mike Elizondo, este último trabajo que ya ha dado la vuelta al mundo, contiene once nuevos temas, entre ellos How, una joya musical a base de piano y voz. ¡Disfrútala!
How can I forget your love
How can I never see you again?
There is a time and place
For one more sweet embrace
And there's a time ooh
Where it all ohh
Went wrong
I guess you know by now
That we will meet again somehow
How oh oh
Oh baby how
Can I begin again
How can I try to love someone new
Someone who isn't you
How can our love be true
When I'm not ooh I'm not ooh over you
I guess you know by now
That we will meet again somehow
Time can come and take away the pain
But I just want my memories to remain
To hear your voice to see your face
There's not one moment I'd erase
You are a guest here now
So baby how can I forget your love
How can I never see you again
How can I never know
Why some stay otehrs go
When I don't ohhh I don't want you oooh to go
I guess I know by now that we will meet again somehow
Time can come and wash away the pain
But I just want my mind to stay the same
To hear your voice
To see your face
There's not one moment I'd erase
You are a guest here now
So baby how can I forget your love
How can I never see you again?
