Baby Jesus

Regina Spektor - Baby Jesus (live)

This might be the best song Regina Spektor has ever written. It's short, and it's little, but it packs so many different things in there, cascading chords, needly eastern rhythms, laughs, brilliant lyrics - the whole thing is as lovable as a little newborn, which is probably the point. It'll paint a fine childlike smile on your face too. This tune surely marks her as one of the best pop songwriters of her generation, and by 'pop', I mean music that seems to go pop! because it's so damn good.
