Soviet Kitsch

Regina Spektor is a Russian Jew in NYC, who emmigrated from USSR in 89 when she was nine. The very trouble that I run into by this CD of hers"Soviet Kitsch" is that the content of it is different from what it advertises; look at this jacket. I finally bought this after some contemplation on what the cover signifies; her music is far from what this cover infers, such as the provocative and misunderstanding between East and West and some fruitful outcome of the crash of two. It was rather a boring female solo like all of those north American contemporary singers. If only she has got any better way of representing herself as ant identity she names as a Jew, a Russian in the NY or an American female, because it's got such a quality in sounds including her dramatic voice. When it forms a song, though, it suffers for its dullness.
