Orientalist others: AZNNN-inspired songs

ii) the url is inspired by this song we all like. Much love, oM! <3
iii) IE sucks. we don't use it and we don't know what the hell the page looks like on it.

Regina Spektor - Samson

You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first, I loved you first
Beneath the stars came fallin’ on our heads
But they’re just old light, they’re just old light
Your hair was long when we first met

The official video for the song uses the louder, more polished version which I hate. Much like the official version of Rachel Yamagata’s Worn Me Down which made the song quicker and more ‘radio-friendly’ or whatever. So a RS fan then cut the video and put in the original version. I love the quiet despondence, it’s just more powerful done slowly instead of rushing the song and making it sound like she’s on E. K exaggeration.

And Samson and Delilah *did* have a sad relationship since Del betrayed Sam’s trust. :’(
