It's a far cry from her 1999 demo tapes, in which she actually used the word 'cunt.' Lighter and Softer: Begin to Hope and Far lost some of the harder edge found in her older songs.A Good Name for a Rock Band: Talked about in 'Making Records':.Fiery Redhead: It can be hard to tell due to its darker shade that can make it appear brown, but Regina has red hair.Everything Is an Instrument: The famous percussion chair.Even the Girls Want Her: Quite a few women have indicated an attraction to her.Erudite Stoner: Played for Laughs in 'That Time'.'Chemo Limo', 'Obsolete' and 'Back of a Truck' are around 6 minutes, which is still long for her. Epic Rocking: 'Pavlov's Daughter' at nearly 8 minutes long.For a comparison, compare 'Pavlov's Daughter' or 'Oedipus' to 'Two Birds' or 'Better'. She seems to be reverting back to that style though, primarily with 'What We Saw From the Cheap Seats' and various performances. While her recent work is far from normal, her earlier work has much more Mind Screw, Black Comedy, mentions of violence and drugs, among other things, and it can be quite jarring to listen to her newer work and then her older work, or vice versa. Early Installment Weirdness: Everything before 'Begin to Hope'.Eagleland: 'Us' is a deconstruction of Type 1, and immigrants' yearning for the 'American dream' is a frequent subject of Regina's work.Dream Team: Her first major tour?

Black Comedy: 'That Time' is full of this, from the protagonist having to bury pieces of a bird she was caring for after a cat got it, to her finding her friend overdosing on drugs twice in the same day, only to realize that she's high as a kite herself.

'Don't Leave Me (Ne Me Quitte Pas)', both the English and Russian version.

'AprГЁs Moi' has some French (the title references and includes the famous Louis XV quote, 'AprГЁs moi, le deluge'), as well.

Bilingual Bonus: Both 'AprГЁs Moi' and '8th Floor' contain untranslated Russian, the former featuring a poem by Boris Pasternak.

Big Applesauce: New York is frequently mentioned in her songs, including locations such as the Williamsburg Bridge.

Regina has casually admitted to directly telling loud or unruly audience members to shut up during live performances.

She's also posted on her Myspace blog about her support for Israel because of how the Jews have been exploited and massacred throughout history. It has some uncharacteristically gory imagery ('so who'll be the Jew to make the papers / drenched in blood up to your blue Jew eyeballs') and the song ends with an angry, emotional wail.
