"Older and Taller" comes from Remember Us to Life, Regina Spektor's seventh album, released on September 30, 2016, and named for a Hebrew phrase from the High Holy Days prayers that caught her eye on Yom Kippur, when she was pregnant. She wrote this one alone, sings it and plays piano, and co-produced it with Leo Abrahams, who also covers guitar, bass and percussion.
Joey Waronker handles the drums, and a small string section fills out the room: Songa Lee-Kitto and Julie Rogers on violin, Nancy Roth on viola and Judith Hamann on cello. Samur Khouja engineered and Dan Grech-Marguerat mixed. It's Spektor at her most wide-eyed, piano skipping along while the strings swell underneath.
