She joked that she stayed up until 3:30 a.m. writing a song, trying not to wake the neighbors, but never wrote anything down. She still doesn’t.
“I try to be better now, at least about recording little things, because sometimes I still have things just disappear,” Spektor says in an interview with All Things Considered host Audie Cornish. “You always think, ‘Oh, I’ll never forget that. That’s so obvious.’ And then, of course, you forget it.”
For a Regina Spektor fan, the fact that there are “lost” Spektor songs is scary. But there is hope. “I am so lucky, because almost from the beginning, people would record the shows,” Spektor says. “I am just so thankful to them, first of all, for taking the time and putting it up online and sharing it with other listeners, but also mainly [for] myself, because there are so many songs I would not know how to play. It gives me so much relief to know that they’re somewhere.”
