June 25, 200917 yr "Blue Lips" is definitely one of my favorites. Far doesn't have any of the obvious clipping issues that were present in Begin to Hope. Not saying they're not there, but nothing as glaring. So far, I have to say this is my favorite of her albums. It is a much better blend of the quirkiness that she had early with the pop sensibility of Begin to Hope. I thought her last one was a bit too polished, but Far seems to be a great blend of everything.
June 25, 200917 yr I've heard some bellyaching online about Far being too commercial. F me, I think it's fantastic and boofrigityhoo if it actually gets some radio play and she doesn't have to be a niche artist anymore. It's fun as hell to listen to. And the previews that I heard had pretty horrid production and I was worried but now having heard the actual album I can say it's worlds better and perfectly listenable.
June 25, 200917 yr I'll be picking this up in the near future (when I have time). This will be my first Regina Spektor cd I buy new, lol.
