Music Video Of The Day: On the Radio by Regina Spektor (2006, dir by Adam Levite)


I don’t have a lot to say about this video.  I just like it.  It’s a good video.  Stewart Moncure shared it during Saturday’s #ILikeToWatch live tweet and I was reminded of how much I’ve always liked this song and this video.  Watching it, I’m reminded of when I briefly wanted to be a teacher.  I wouldn’t have taught music, though.  I can’t carry a tune to save my life.  Instead, I would have taught …. well, Drama is kind of the obvious choice but if I could teach anything, I’d probably teach history.  I mean, we could solve so many of our problems today if people actually knew more about history than what they see on twitter or read on Wikipedia.  Oh well.

Anyway, enjoy!

Song of the Day: While My Guitar Gently Weeps (performed by Regina Spektor)


If you’ve seen Kubo and the Two Strings, you’ll understand why.

Though I won’t spoil the movie, I will say that, when this Regina Spektor cover of George Harrison’s classic song started to play, there was not a dry eye to be found in the Alamo Drafthouse.

If you haven’t already, be sure to see Kubo this weekend!  Let’s make it the number one film in the country!
