Music Video to Love: Eet

I just heard this song for the first time on Saturday Night Live last night while I was half asleep but it sounded so good that I remembered to look it up once I got to work this morning. I'm not typically a fan of Regina Spektor but she kills it with the emotion in this one. The lyrics, particularly "It’s like forgetting the words to your favorite song you can’t believe it, you were always singing along", really speak to a certain feeling I can understand instantly. Really lovely.

This video is just as beautiful as the song, mostly because Ms. Spektor is a beautiful woman. Check it out.



Eet Lyrics

It’s like forgetting the words to your favorite song
You can’t believe it
You were always singing along
It was so easy and the words so sweet
You can’t remember
You try to feel the beat

Eet, eet, eet, eet
Eet, eet, eet, eet

You spent half of your life trying to fall behind
You’re using your headphones to drown out your mind
It was so easy, and the words so sweet
You can’t remember
You try to move your feet
Eet, eet, eet, eet
Eet, eet, eet, eet

Someone’s deciding whether or not to steal
He opens the window just to feel the chill
He hears that outside a small boy just starting to cry
‘Cause it’s his turn but his brother won’t let him try

It’s like forgetting the words to your favorite song
You can’t believe it
You were always singing along
It was so easy and the words so sweet
You can’t remember
You try to move your feet

It was so easy and the words so sweet
You can’t remember, you try to feel the beat
