At last!!!

Feist has FINALLY released the video for her single, "How Come You Never Go There", about a million years after it was aired/debuted/sent out into the world for purchasing purposes.

The video itself comprises Feist in a sexy Yoko Ono floor-length weave, getting jiggy in a smokey forest. We mean, what more could you possibly want?

Sexy and beautiful and wonderful.

SWOOOON

So this is the artwork for the new Feist album, Metals. YAY. PAINT BY NUMBERS. *prints off and ignores key, painting entire thing psychedelic rainbow tie dye patterns*. As well as that to enjoy you can go to Feist's official website right now and there are some videos on there. It looks like things are being unlocked slowly? We have no idea how fast or why and it's too late for research so we'll probably inform you in the next post on the lady and then apologise profusely for being lazy last time and then you'll get the information in dribs and drabs, that is, assuming that you get most of your music information from this 'ere blog, which most of you probably don't, considering we all read multiple music blogs and some are better or more regularly updated than others and, well, we just like to concentrate on other stuff like quality over quantity and calibre of prose and all of that. You want to treasure a blog right?

Longest sentence ever?

Anyway if you go on Feist's official webby page, listentofeist.com (we guess feist.com was taken, sod's law guys!) you can hear some of the stuff (also in the video below) and MY LORD IT SOUNDS LUSH. All stringy and languid and outré but melodic and whimsical at the same time. Romantic and brilliant and lovely and lush and just splenderificous.



Colour us excited. Or just colour the artwork above. Your choice.

Intrigue.

It's been 4 years but Feist is back.

Stuck In Our Head: "So Sorry" - Feist

We were going to write something, ages ago, about a skill that Feist possesses. We can only think of one other artist in the history of popular music who is also possessor of this skill and her name is Joan As Police Woman (or Joan As Fire Station as one of our number likes to call her). This skill is the ability to write a song featuring completely unsurprising and obvious instrumentation (some guitar strumming, a bit of bass, maybe some light drum shuffles) and STILL make it sound otherwordly and delicious and completely unique. We didn't even need to listen to this song to get it stuck in our head, it went so perfectly with the weather the other evening, it just popped into our head. Feist, we lurve you.
