Regina Spektor – The Call

While in Alaska, we went to see the new Chronicles of Narnia movie for Prince Caspian. Wonderful, five star film. There are few films these days that can compete with the Lord Of The Rings or Chronicles of Narnia, and though I still think LOTR was the epitome of epic, Narnia comes in very close.

Usually when someone says that the end of the movie was the best part, they aren’t exactly paying it a compliment. However, I think the end of the film was it’s best moment, as the kids are sent back home. The reason for this is that the directors of the movie chose the perfect song for the credits, by none other than Regina Spektor.

I had not previously been exposed to Regina’s music, though coincidentally the day before we saw the movie my friend had popped her CD in. I wasn’t very impressed with the album, though, because it didn’t seem to have anything particularly different or unique.

The Call, however, which closes the Prince Caspian movie, was perfectly produced and fits the movie better than any other. Regina’s voice is flawless on this track, and I can easily say after previewing her other tracks that this is her best one yet.
