Feistwaves

I sense Feist may soon gain the popularity she enjoys in Canada and Europe, in Asia since her voice has been been on high rotation in television commericals. It has appeared alongside two popular brands on Hong Kong television: "Mushaboom" was on a Lacoste TV commerical for men's cologne and more recently, a different version of "Gatekeeper" is heard on a TV commercial for a Christian Dior perfume (watch it here). One sad but true way to gain popularity in these parts is through advertisements. We love commericals.

Regardless, Feist is deserving. The woman can sing and she has been been on heavy rotation on my iPod (his name is Samson) since two portable CD players ago. But thanks to the generous folks on the WWW, namely a poster on Broken Telephone and Cindy at The Rich Girls Are Weeping (mp3s + good writing = worth checking out), her sultry vocals have been on extra heavy rotation. Pay it forward, they say so here are a few of my favourite Feist mp3s:

Feist - "Gatekeeper" (Do Right Remix)
Feist - "One Evening" (VV Remix)
Feist - Live at the Rivoli (200?) explaining the various definitions of "Feist" (just banter)
The New Deal - "Don't Blame Yourself" (Feist on vocals, two of my favourite acts in one awesomely bass-eriffic track)

Also, if you look through the archives I still have the mp3 of "Still True" uploaded but I'm too lazy to get the link right now. Goodnight.
