‘Let It Die’ is very much a voice album in close up, “eye
to eye and ear to ear”. Carefully pieced together around
Feist’s seductive and jhai* voice, the album forms the
missing link between ye old folk (storytelling), the Brill
building era (the quest for the hook), doo-wop (melody and
mood) and minimal modern pop arrangements. Like line
drawings as opposed to detailed paintings, these songs
leave you space to fill in the emotional blanks. Its lack
of complication makes ‘Let It Die’ standout from much of
today’s musical offerings; put simply, a beautiful slice of
sonic escapism to illustrate and interrupt the little
moments that together tell us stories.
A history not lacking in variety, the Canadian born singer
has accomplished much in her few tender years, so More...
Review about Feist heeyy | Reviewer: Olivia Lynn
------ About the song One Evening performed by Feist
Oooh! i love this song,
if i had to guess what it was saying i would say its talking about two people who are sort of on the rebound
"When we started, both brokenhearted"
they met and had a nice evening
hahaha idk something along the lines of that

------ About the song The Park performed by Feist
I think we have ten fingers so that we can let go one at a time. Ten days, ten months, ten years go by and one day, when we're ready, we look down and wonder what to do with our hands.
The last time I saw her, she was walking away. I watched her until she was gone. The park is still there. Maybe I'll go climb a tree.
Happy Birthday, Baby.
I miss you.
Let it die? | Reviewer: arielle
------ About the song Let It Die performed by Feist
exactly like all of you said. things sometimes just don't work out, and yeah it hurts, but you gotta be strong, take a deep breath, and think of all the positive things you and your ex significant other have been through. you have to think about yourself for a while, then at the time when you find yourself you can find someone else. just be comfortable in your own skin, and even if he does move on he loved you once, and he always will. he will one day realize he made a stupid mistake and come back begging for you. and at that moment he'll feel all the pain you went through, when you don't take him back. you girls seem like really amazing people with really amazing views on life, and breakups. you live, and you learn. it'll all get better. and remember, you are worth way more than you sell yourself for.
-sincerely, arielle.<3

------ About the song Mushaboom performed by Feist
I'm 126 years old. I like music when i can hear it, which isn't often. I think i like this woman she reminds me of my youth, the good old days. Ah i'm going to stop typing now because my fingers are falling off. Good day.
Just another great song from another great artist | Reviewer: Zoe
------ About the song Mushaboom performed by Feist
Hahaha
I'm 12. But that says a lot, because not many artists these days can be listened to by a twelve year old and a forty year old and liked by both. This is a great song, the first one I heard by Feist. Afterwards I went on to purchase 'The Reminder' and a Broken Social Scene CD. The store I went to didn't have 'Let it Die' but I'm sure if I go in another one, they'll have it.

------ About the song Lover's Spit performed by Feist
I could care less about what TV shows this song has been on (I haven't owned a TV in close to 20 years) and probably would have never heard this song but for some wandering around the internet while reading about BSS. I love Feist's singing and this is a powerful song. have had the video playing for about half an hour now, I think this song just made it into my top 10.

------ About the song Let It Die performed by Feist
My boyfriend broke up with me a little over three weeks ago. Today I sent him a forward on accident asking him about what song reminded him of me and this song was his reply. I listened to this song for the first time and instantly related to it. I still miss him to this day, but I know we can never be together again. This song has helped me get over him. Thanks Feist!
Lovely. | Reviewer: Ellaha
------ About the song Honey Honey performed by Feist
I personally love this song, it's my favorite by Feist. I don't know why. Maybe it's because this song seems pretty sensual to me and when she sings it, it literally sounds like her voice is dripping honey. Anyway, it's a great lullaby. :)

------ About the song Lover's Spit performed by Feist
I also heard this song on The L Word and I agree with your comments, this song is amazing and I too prefer Feist's version. She just has a way of singing...its almost dream-like, very peaceful. Absolutely beautiful. She puts a whole new spin on it. Her voice is just....wow, im speachless.
AU Dreams Fade | Reviewer: Chan Sze Man
------ About the song Let It Die performed by Feist
This is the first song that I thought about when I came to the conclusion that you and I wouldn't ever be Li Wai Nga. If you knew that people didn't give us a chance, why didn't you try a little harder? Why couldn't you have done a little better for the both of us? Now we face the "I told you so"s. I'll take it all like a man because it's an outcome that was predictable, but I didn't think would occur. I believed in you. I thought we would show them all.
Six months later... | Reviewer: D
------ About the song The Park performed by Feist
I was in a very destructive relationship. We brought out the worst in each other and yet there was so much love between us. After trying to get out of the relationship for months I bought a ticket to Amsterdam and left 12 hours later. Ten days later she found out where I was and showed up to surprise me. I wish I could say it went well. She left Amsterdam the next day and a couple of weeks went by before I flew back to LA. It was on that flight that I heard this song for the first time. I know in my mind that we could never be but sometimes my heart still wishes we were.
Love it | Reviewer: Bernie
------ About the song I Feel It All performed by Feist
I'm a songwriter-hopeful. I think this is a beautiful song. I love her oh oh (octaves are beautiful) and voice in general. Love her I feel it all - HAH!! She's spirited.
The song seems nicely constructed.
I love the female alternative scene - much creativity and freshness of sound and lyric.
Thanks for the inputs on lyrics, I try to write 'em but I am kinda thick on interpreting them. Think others nailed it here. What is that gulf stream reference? It seems like she was wandering around reflecting and fidgeting with thoughts and surroundings and wrote them down. Many lyrics this way. Many seem to be purely feel or like stream-consciousness with emphasis on sound of words and fitting the music. It is hard to put 'em together sometimes. This "brand" of music has been popular for a long time. Sometimes I like it, sometimes not. Some people just use it to cheat and sound deep - even, dare I say, Bernie Taupin's often strike me that way. Not to deny his talent (eg-Tiny Dancer early on).
Appreciate any feedback.
How do you know when to let go? | Reviewer: Katie
------ About the song Let It Die performed by Feist
Once you've let yourself fall for someone and it takes a terrible turn, you begin to become in-denial thinking that there is still hope with the relationship.("It was hard to tell just how I felt To not recognize myself I started to fade away").
Then once you realize, you begin to regret the relationship altogether ("Don't you wish that we could forget that kiss..").
Personally, I try to take each relationship I have had as a learning experience; my past heartbreaks have all helped to mold my expections of what type of man I want. Yes, heartbreak is painful but the only way to really get through it is to find the positive.
Honestly, the hardest part for me is to recognize that it is over (me & my current bf are pretty passive individuals so neither one of us will initiate it). How do you know when to let go? When is enough, enough?? These are questions/delimas that I am currently struggling with...
Different Interpretation | Reviewer: Winter Rain
------ About the song The Water performed by Feist
I believe that the song is about how mankind is at the mercy of nature.
The telegraph cables may be a reference to the Trans Atlantic telegraph cable attempts in the 1800s. The attempts worked, but not for very long. Her image of the sea could reinforce the idea that the sea as part of a powerful, isolating force of nature, was too strong to allow the human connection. The motive of the sea may have been jealousy over the human ability to connect, because it "doesn't get much company."
The water and the mountain did not realize how dangerous they are, isolated and ostracizing.
Man hopes his children will survive in this world, but nature will crush them until they are a pile of bones. Wind battered, under a grey sky, folded over like a wave. All images of nature.

It gets better, I promise. This feeling may take hours, days, weeks, months, or even decades to get over. But you get over it. Humans get over everything.
They say if you love twice, it's the jackpot.
I just got out of my second first love. This song is helping me recoop.
Mushaboom be my happy song | Reviewer: Jay Struu
------ About the song Mushaboom performed by Feist
Haha, I'm a guy and I'm in love with this song, its just so happy!! Leslie Feist is everything and then some. I love almost all her songs from Let it Die, especially Mushaboom, Inside and Out, and Tout Doucement, they're all so snazzy(=
playing this song on the piano is very easy and empowering. although feist does not play the piano for this song, her voice is just breathtaking; she knows just when to pause or hold the crack in her voice that really gives the song the cadence that it deserves. when i heard it on queer as folk. ( the bsc version ) i downloaded it and saw that feist had a cover of the song, and i think she does the song more justice.
