Some of the tunes aren't new, rather they were played live over the last 8 years or so and she has recorded them in HQ! For example Genius Next Door has been played live, just never recorded. Also, there is a pretty good recording of Folding Chair out there already that I have if anyone wants it

I like the cover. A bit bland, but still nice looking.

I am very excited for this album... I like the simple cover. Makes the music stand out even more. Can't wait to have it in my hands, maybe learn some of the new on piano and play along.

I agree Jessie! And have you seen the photo of Regina at a piano that looks like that? Adorable.

I like the song. It's nice enough, but I need the lyrics to see if I love it. I'm not sure if I agree with the "message," but the melody and her vocals are very nice. Beginning reminds me of "A Sorta Fairytale."

Not sure I like this... and I agree Rantboi. I thought it was the ASF demo at first! lol
Hmm. It's an odd choice for a first single, no?

Yeah, if this is a single, she might be in trouble!
I hope it's just a nice little song for the fans before the single comes out.

Not sure what she's saying most of the time.
But it's pretty. And the lyrics that I can hear are pretty powerful.

I don't need amazing... sweet, simple, fun and enjoyable are good enough for me. Since I like the sound of her voice, her lyrics, and her piano that's fine. Not sure where I heard this but Tori is the wine, she is the beer. Both are yummy!
