Several newly remastered HD music videos are also available today including “Fidelity,” “Man of A Thousand Faces,” “Dance Anthem of the 80’s” and “Better” with more to come. “So grateful to everyone who made these records and songs go platinum and gold,” says Spektor. “It’s fun to see how a song that’s been around for a while can suddenly meet new listeners. I loved seeing how beautifully everyone was signing “Two Birds” in ASL. I hope songs keep getting discovered in surprising and creative ways- and that for now, all the colorful new vinyl reissues can express some of my gratitude!” Spektor first saw commercial success with Begin to Hope (2006). Her breakout album, it includes hit singles “On the Radio,” “Better” and the now RIAA Gold Digital Single “Samson,” as well as now RIAA Platinum Digital Single “Fidelity,” which climbed the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.

Both albums debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 albums chart. The repressing also includes Remember Us to Life (2016), Spektor’s seventh studio album, and Live in London (2009), her first live album, which features twenty-two songs spanning her extensive catalog at the time and including three unrecorded tracks that have only ever been performed live.

ACCLAIM FOR REGINA SPEKTOR:   "UP THE MOUNTAIN" NAMED A #1 FAVORITE SONG OF THE YEAR “[‘Up The Mountain’ is] the most striking  song I’ve heard in 2022.” “her piano studies take on colorful shapes,  the rigidity of classical tutelage giving way to improvisation and willful flashes of personality”     [of “Up The Mountain”] “It’s mystical and earthy, moving from tolling  piano to implacable beat, with strings and horns ganging up”
