"Eet" comes from Far, Regina Spektor's fifth studio album, out on Sire in 2009, and it went out as the record's second official single that October. Spektor wrote it on her own and co-produced it with Mike Elizondo, who also plays bass; she handles piano, keyboards and vocals, Matt Chamberlain drums, Brad Warnaar adds French horn, and Michael Brauer mixed it.
The song had a head start. A video directed by Adria Petty went viral at the end of May, before the album was even in stores, shot in east Lancaster, California, a short walk from Club Ed, a movie studio out in the Antelope Valley. In October she played it on Saturday Night Live alongside "The Calculation".
