  • regina spektor - 8th Floor/Eighth Floor (Live)
    Recorded: Unknown
    Lyrics:
    No one waits for her inside the house
    She spots a stranger in the mirror
    And the record spins her nearer
    To the outcome of her day
    You live inside the city
    You forget how tall the trees can get
    A bird sits on
    A branch across
    From my eighth floor window
    And you can't really say
    That it's an eighth floor branch
    'Cause trees don't have floors
    And buildings do
    Восьмой этаж
    Восьмой этаж
    Все высоко
    Все под тобой
    Вот идет домой
    Карман пустой
    Хоть милостыню просите
    Три рубля на водку и буханку белого хлеба
    А теперь, наверное, все дороже
    И дорожки те забыты
    А над ними паруса
    Первый этаж
    Я маленькая
    Все высоко
    Все надо мной
    Восьмой этаж
    Америка
    Я высоко
    Все подо мной
    Я высоко...
    I came in from the rain which
    Wasn't really rain
    It was just
    January snow in denial
    And something must have gotten lost
    In the translation
    Russian to English
    And winter wasn't wintery today
    She comes into the house
    And no one waits for her inside the house
    She spots a stranger in the mirror
    And the record spins her nearer
    To the outcome of her day
    You live inside the city
    You forget how tall the trees can get
    A bird sits on a branch of my eighth floor window
    A bird sits on a branch of my eighth floor window
    A bird sits on a branch of my eighth floor window
    Translation:
    The eighth floor
    The eighth floor
    Everything's high
    Everything is below you
    Somebody is coming home
    Empty pocket
    You could go begging
    It's three rubles for vodka and a loaf of white bread
    But now, maybe, everything's more expensive
    And the old paths are forgotten
    Above them we set sail
    The first floor
    I'm really small
    Everything's high
    Everything is above me
    The eighth floor
    America
    I am high
    Everything is below me
    I am high...

    drumset here is perfect, makes the song almost cinematic: the new well recorded studio version is nice, of course, but I feel there's much more stuff here. I can't imagine what could be to attend to this live, thanks for this bootleg

      It's my favourite, which is almost impossible to say...

    Sounds like a continuation of buildings

      at least the russian part is probably about Regina (the comment from alicepotter777).
