    Sue , Thank You
    Happy New Year I’m so happy you are introducing this song to others
    She has another song called New Year which is also beautiful
    ( and a little bittersweet )
    NYE can be different for everyone and I think the sounds on the track add a sense of uncertainty that we all greet a New Year with.
    Are they gunshots or fireworks are these just the sounds on New York on New Year’s Eve ?
    Regina ( not like the Canadian city ) is from Russia but came to New York are A young girl
    She was a staple of East Village scene in early 2000’s
    I think you should explore more and her songs
    Better , Fidelity or Samson are 3 to start with
    She reminds me of Tori Amos in looks and she also preforms mostly on piano
    As for the song itself
    Peggy Lee version is pretty straight version and I’m amazed it is not a staple for this time of year

      @jessem470 My pleasure, Jesse. Yes I can see the Tori comparison. She has that female indie sound from the 90s and 2000s which I love. Great point about the sounds. NYE and day are different for each one of us. Good song and Regina has a great voice. 🤩💙

    This is a very sweet sound, I like her voice, and I'm picturing her sitting playing the piano as she sings. Never heard of her before! Apparently she is a Russian born American. That could explain the accent that can sometimes be heard. Really nice and gentle.

      @kimr3729 Yes I can totally picture her sitting at the piano playing as well, Kim. She really does have a nice voice. I will listen to more of her 🤩💗

    Yes Sue, this is quite a nice song, although for some reason it gives me a slightly sad vibe despite the happy lyrics .. Perhaps it's because of the somewhat reflective feel of the music, which can often bring up mixed feelings in me .. I've heard her name a number of times, but didn't know any of her stuff, so I checked out a few songs .. She's quite easy to listen to.

      @wayne_twentyfive Hi Wayne, for sure. This happens to me with songs as well. The music really dictates the feeling for me even if the lyrics are dark or sad but the music is lively or upbeat or vice versa, I identify wirh the music. The music is very powerful 🤩💜
