'Mushaboom' is more than worth buying the album for.Review created: 02/03/08
by:
I heard 'Mushaboom' on the radio and loved the song so much I bought the album. Was I disappointed? Well, no.
There were no other songs like it on the album but I was hooked all the same. Feist has such a beautiful voice she could sing the alphabet and it would probably still be worth hearing but 'Mushaboom' is one of my favourite songs - ever. Happy, hopeful and fun, jaunty hand-claps and sweet lyrics - what more could a person ask for in a song?
Besides my obvious infatuation with this song other tracks most notable are 'Lonely, lonely' , mostly for the music near the end where it fades into the addictive 'When I was a young girl'.
If I could speak French no doubt I would add the chirpy 'Tout doucement' to my favourites....but I don't so the lyrics remain a mystery to me and her voice carries the song all by itself. Awesome stuff.

Feist - Let It DieMe gusta este disco porque en primer lugar la canción "Inside & Out", version de "Love you Inside Out" de los BeeGees me parece una maravilla, aparte es una musi muy fresca y currada. Creo que es su mejor LP.

tune in kick back and relaxReview created: 11/07/07

July evening in an apartment in Tuscany with the windows open to let the breeze in and sounds of the day coming to an end echoing from the cobbled streets below - A new friend was playing a medley of songs to me which I didn't know from a selection of albums I'd never had - he bought albums on the strength of their covers he says, which sometimes works, sometimes fails - he'd found Feist like this. An ethereal laid back stroll in a cornfield, the musical equivalent of a day being pampered in a spa, feists voice is a perfect balance of soft and strong, with a smattering of French catchy tunes and uplifting lyrics. Like Jeff Buckley without the drama, or maybe Eva Cassidy without the sadness. Fantastic.

Excellent easy listening musicReview created: 10/04/07

I came across this Canadian singer and song-writer on Lacoste official websites first time a year ago. They used her song Mushaboom as their main music. It was so catchy that I have decided to buy a CD where I found more nice pieces of music. Finally, the favorite piece of music from this CD was not the Mushaboom but the Secret Heart, which is really nice and melodious.
Except the fact, she is nice women (what nobody can not appreciate listening a CD), she definitely possess really interesting and excellent voice. The voice is a little bit or slightly coarsy what add more and makes better her music. Moreover, she does not sing only english but as a Canadian in brilliant French as well. However, there is just one song in French on this CD, it definitely makes it at least a little bit different from CDs of other interprets.
The texts are as I mentioned before easy listening. You can not expect some deep thoughts however, you can enjoy what Feist is trying to say.
I can not do more than highly recommend this CD to anybody who likes a women voices in music.

Beautiful and heartfelt songs and vocalsAfter listening to this album at a friend's house over a year ago, Let It Die became one of those albums that I must have, yet never seemed to get round to actually buying. When hearing the name Feist, many people may think 'Who?', yet one of her tracks (the quirkily infectious 'Mushaboom') has been used to advertise both mens fragrance (Lacoste) and beds (Silentnight).
What I like most about this album is the range of styles and moods that Feist's vocal lends itself to, from the soulful 'One Evening', sensual 'Leisure Suite' and traditional 'When I was a Young Girl'. At least half of the songs are self or co-written, but she also entertains us with covers of Ron Sexsmiths 'Secret Heart', the Bee-Gees 'Inside and Out' (one of my favourites from the album) and a beautifully poignant version of Blossom Dearies 'Now at Last'.
The French import version of the album-the version I bought-has two additional bonus tracks-'Amourissima', a part English, part French ballad and 'L'Amour Ne Dure Pas Toujours', roughly translates as 'the love does not always last', another quirky, French song.
Overall this album is an absolute gem. Feist's warm voice is guaranteed to make you smile and sing along, in the vain attempt that you'll sound just as good.
