Filed under: Regina Spektor

Regina Spektor is so crazy. And we mean that as a compliment!

Click here to watch the wonderfully wacky new video for her song Better. She's this decade's Tori Amos.

      how dare you compare Tori Amos to this??? Regina is a copycat at best, and a poor one at that. SO overrated. YAWNS.

      She's amazing and such a breath of fresh air in a word of manufactured crap and no talent.

      i like the video
      but the older, slower version of the song is better, i think.

      She's not original at all!!! She simply a Tori Amos wannabe!!!!

      38

      I don't understand why to build up one person people have to put someone else down. Tori Amos & Regina Spektor are both great - Tori is very established & still doing new things while Regina is a interesting, original voice. It's not one or the other.

    39. prismputty says – reply to this

      Tori Amos is still Tori Amos even in this decade. Copycat if you ask me…

      Ah I love Regina, shes just so lovely and talented..although I'm not a big fan of her hair in this.

    42. Chelle says – reply to this


      42

      She's totally influenced by Tori. It's evident in her songwriting and her personal style. That's not really a bad thing, though. However, she should stop trying to emulate her so much. This video reminds me of Tori's "Past The Mission", with all of the girls coming out of nowhere, in black dresses, across a field of dry grass - the scenery is verrrrrrrry reminiscent. Regina's even got Tori's signature red lips and bare eyes of the '90s. Is she going to dye her hair red next? Oh, and the pic that you've been posting lately of Regina sitting at her piano, side view, totally toothy grin - that is *so* Tori.

      She looks so much like Tori circa the Little Earthquakes/Under the Pink era. Weird!

      oh my god, this doucheface sounds like a dying bird. are you retarded? she's nowhere near as talented as Tori Amos.

      Listen, I am 16 and even I know their is only one goddess named Tori Amos. No one will ever come close to her talent. Although I do like Spektor too don't get me wrong.

      58

      this is not very new at all. and i wonder why she redid this video. i like the old one better, the original one is when she is singing into all this glass and shit. but oh well, nothing she does is less than amazing to me, so kudo's to her. I wouldnt say she the next tori, that bitch is still making my eyes roll with pleasure, regina and tori are their very own

    61. jen says – reply to this


      61

      Regina and Tori both happen to be very talented female singer/songwriters who happen to play piano. They do have similarities and both have some quirkiness. Regina has been influenced by Tori somewhat but is definitely her own person. There's definitely room for both!

    62. lick it says – reply to this


      62

      Ummm.. Vegina is nothing close to where Tori was in her heydey. In fact.. Tori is still selling more, and on a bigger tour than her. Perez do you ever get anything right you fatty boombatty

      67

      This video REALLY pisses me off!! Any Tori fan can see that she is trying soooo hard to be just like Tori. I could barely stand watching the whole thing.

    68. wadayamean??? says – reply to this


      68

      This decade's Tori Amos???? What have YOU been smokin'? While I think she is a talent unto herself, a Tori Amos in any decade she'll never be. Besides, if anyone is entitled to that kind of comparison it would have to Charlotte Martin. Peace~

      regina is specatular. Thanks for putting this video up and highlighting some real and unique talent and not paris hilton, (or britney) (or avril) or any of the other idiots out there.

    73. HoneyFrog says – reply to this


      73

      I've heard Regina's stuff and I can tell for a fact there is no way to compare her to Tori. They're very different. They're both original, talented singers/songwriters and it says there. It's like comparing apples with oranges.

      TORI AMOS is way more talented than REGINA.

      TORI's talent seems endless and TORI still has a huge presence today.

      This video is very "copy cat" to Tori's "PAST THE MISSION"

      … OH AND TORI plays the piano much better!!!!!!

      … OH AND TORI plays the piano much better!!!!!!

      … OH AND TORI plays the piano much better!!!!!!

      … OH AND TORI plays the piano much better!!!!!!

      REGINA = BORING PIANO… all her songs sound so similar in foundation and structure.

    81. Julie says – reply to this


      81

      Regina's great, but TORI is this decade's Tori Amos. She's still rockin let's not forget!
      And Regina doesn't suck live, but I saw her at ACL this year and she had like the Melinda-Doolitte-I-can't-believe-you-love-me act going on!

    82. bbbbmer says – reply to this


      82

      …oh feh!!! tori amos???? t/a ain't got ONE TENTH of regina's talent!!! regina is a breath of fresh air and an AMAZING artist — and needs no affected contortions or boa constrictors bouncing off her piano or shoulders to portray the soul and angst of a true artist…. tori amos is a phoney two cent imitation of the great nyc cabaret artist phoebe leger, a true original, who puts amos in the shade… regina is another true original, with an appeal to intelligence in both her lyrics and her music modes and structures, and unlike amos, i adore her!!!

    84. drengu says – reply to this


      84

      Why Regina keeps imitating tori's facial expressions(when she had one, before the botx injections)?????????
      anyway, the vid is exactly like past the mission one.
      Regina is not the new tori, just a wannabe.

    85. michelle says – reply to this


      85

      so was she raped and then made an album dedicated to the healing of that horrible experience? because that is Tori Amos…how dare you compare her to a woman who wrote down, the recorded, her pain and rage into an amazing healing process entitled "Little Earthquakes" that helped millions of rape victims, myself included, get through the years of hurt and rage. she is no Tori Amos, she is just some new artist. how dare you.

      93

      She's the new Tori Amos as much as Britney Spears is the new Madonna. Tori Amos is Tori Amos, and is irreplaceable.

      Only takes someone daft to come to that 'realization', while she's clearly being sold as a new Tori on purpose.

      I give her credit for her music but she ought to try and find her own style if she wants any respect from those who know Tori, and those are MANY.

      Original version of this song is so much better…who got their hands on it and over produced the shit out of it? Original video was much better too…far more simple and understated than this.
