Well said, perhaps you should remember your own statement before knee jerk criticizing those that do not like the groups you like.

Think she was influenced by Tori's Caught a Lite Breeze?

Every song played here is loved by someone, more than likely a lot of folks.  Nearly every song here is "critically acclaimed", for whatever that is worth (nothing much, in my estimation).  We are all critics here, even if you never make a comment.  Let's say you never even buy a CD.  That's a choice you are making, you are starving all kinds of musicians when you do that, if everyone did that.  I'd say that's a lot worse than a negative comment.  The worst thing you can do to an artist is ignore them.  Commenting on art is almost always going to be negative.  It is much much easier to point out flaws than to point out perfections.  In fact, if something is perfect, what can you say about it, other than it is perfect?  That's banal. So, the point is not to be banal.  It's a worthy aspiration in my opinion.  Think of the egotism involved in a musician putting out a CD for people to listen to.  It is an artist saying:  "I am so good, you should listen to my creative efforts, and also pay for it".  Well, OK, I say, and in this little deal we have made, part of the bargain is that I am going to tell you the truth as to how I feel about it; and this comment board is the place to do it.

Not my favorite by her, but why do so many people feel the need to crap all over music others do like?

...off side of course but I do enjoy reading the thoughts and comments and I have come to the conclusion that there is a worldwide need for a "sarcasm" font... now back to the music - an 8

Feist channelling Bush. I like. =)

I just got the album and have to say that although I wasn't a fan of her previous album, I'm pretty impressed with this one. I found the songs to be much more musically interesting and sophisticated with a nice overall atomosphere. There were one or two songs I didn't like so much, but a nice album from start to finish. Not disappointed in the purchase at all.

How is this album overall?  Worth buying if you like this tune - anyone?!  

incisive...

still crap
