On the Radio (Regina Spektor song)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"On the Radio" is the first single from Regina Spektor's fourth album, Begin to Hope. The chorus contains references to the song "November Rain" by Guns N' Roses.
[edit] Music video
An accompanying music video was released which shows Spektor teaching a music class made up of young school children. The video uses stop motion in a few scenes. An alternate video was released in which Spektor sings in a chocolate factory. The video was directed by Matt Lenski.
[edit] Use in media
The television show Grey's Anatomy used the song "On The Radio" in the episode "Damage Control". "On The Radio" was also featured in the 2009 film Beastly.
Amanda Palmer has performed this song often live from her and Spektor's similar, piano driven styles.
