Hi Regina! Begin to Hope was the first album I ever bought (when I was 9 years old), and your songs are what inspired me to learn to play piano. 10 years later, still with such an interest in playing music, you are the only person I have never met who has had such a profound impact on my life's direction, and I will always be grateful to you for that.

Over the years on this wonderful tool called the internet, I've met many people who share a story similar to mine, of you being their biggest musical inspiration.

How does it make you feel to know you have inspired an entire generation of musicians (some of whom are now world famous artists in their own right) to discover and pursue their musical talents, who otherwise may never have found an interest?

It's a lyric from Bobbing for Apples:

"Someone next door is fucking to one of my songs"

Thank you so much for your answer Regina!! It means so much to me just to know that even if I can never truly articulate it, that now you know just 1/1000th of the impact you have had on me and my life! I can't wait to continue to be inspired by all of your incredible music.
