She is clearly not a proponent of that venerable music tradition called rock and roll. PSD.

The piano backing does it for me (aside from the fab vocal)—especially at the bridge, beautiful subtle chords, perfectly blended. How cool.

Feist's music does not connect with me. But I can understand the appeal and it sounds very, very tight. Fesit is a great addition to the radioparadise play list. |

What a well-turned song! Simple yet engaging and done so well. One of my favorites.

Were I capable, my dream job would involve releasing an album of accessible pop that would keep me in skittles for the rest of my life and break me into the US market, then spend my days making creative, beautiful music that would keep me and my dedicated fans happy. Pity, I can't do either one.... Anyway, I know that's not what Feist did, but if you were to compare this song with Mushaboom, it might seem that way. |

Please. Please. Please. No more Feist. Her music was somewhat tolerable when she first came out, but now I find her voice to be extremely annoying and I'm sick of hearing her stuff being overplayed on commercial stations. It's bad enough, I have to stop the music and wait till she's done.  |
