Reminds me a bit of 1 2 3 4 by Feist, at least in terms of tone and technique. Both excellent videos as well

I hated it. To be honest. I got half way through and put it done. I have read the last two Magician books by Feist.

If you haven't read Galapagos I recommend you don't.

Cute pup. You've been reading Galapagos for a long time, haven't you.

It's a strange transition for me to Feist... GS!YBE => Broken Social Scene => Feist... but I'm very glad to have made it.

Feist isn't another pop-girl driven by a record label (especially since she's on an independent label...). She's got all sorts of class and tons of talent. Not to mention some really great music.

Success is not just measured in Dollars. Integrity and artistic accomplishment should be first on an artist's list. It wasn't that long ago that selling out was seen as a bad thing, rather than a career ambition-which seems to be where it's at today. Remember Neil Young's paean to sell-outs in the music industry "This Note's for You!"?

Hell, some of my favorite musical acts are the most succesful ever- Beatles, Kinks, the Who, Mark Knopfler, the Band etc,etc. Most on that list have at least tried to maintain some integrity, resisting the heavy temptation to schill for one corporation or another. I still enjoy those who have sold out if the work stands up.

I've been a Feist fan for years, I've been a stage hand for Broken Social Scene and Feist solo, and have always thought that she's a very clever song-writer and enjoy her tiny little voice- her vocal stylings bring a certain poignancy to the words. I just am completely nauseated by the constant playing of 1234. This singer- Yael Naim is it? Well, don't know anything about her, but she certainly will sell a lot more records as a result of doing the Apple ad than she would have otherwise- but she most definitely has sold out by doing it in the first place- Neil Young would not approve. That's okay though, the southern man don't need him around anyhow.

shoany- you're right. I was being overly simplistic and just a bit grumpy. Sorry. Still hate this song and Feist's as well.

If this woman had any artistic credibility at all, it went out the window the moment the first Macbook Air ad ran. I used to love Feist too, but if I hear THAT song again, I swear I'll start throwing random puppies off cliffs.

People pay money for this?

Considering the talent and uniqueness of Leslie Feist is hands down better than a majority of labeled garbage titled as music, yes, people pay money for this.

Haha. Awesome.

"This is the song on the apple comercial."

funny description.

Feist's always put on a fun live show.
