anyone listen to the new Kevin Drew album? any good? no time to d/l..and not sure if i wanna buy before listening to a few more songs besides the one playing on The Edge.

P.S. Fiest is really becoming one of my favorite new solo artists.

yesh.... Calvin Harris CD is wikkid... such a fun album. Picked up the new Sander K cd last weekend- such a upbeat refreshing compilation....

I actually love that commercial...cool song too. Apple and Telus definitely have their shit together with their TV ads (although you see them so often, they do become a bit overexposed).

i'm surprised how many people like the calvin harris cd lol. I first heard his stuff back in the spring, and found it catchy, but thought it'd be too cheese for the underground music snobs of TOTA.

even though i find calvins stuff catchy, i think i could enjoy it if i heard it out, but not something i'd really put on myself.

just recently grabbed the feist album and had a chance to listen to it over the last weekend......and i must say WoW!!!

Jon your right, it does sorta have that Bjork sound.....maybe mixed in with a little Metric? and of house a little bit of electronica here and their lol but seriously, if anyone has a chance to pick it up, go for it, you wont be dissapointed!

WOW to Fiest....WOW...I normally dont like this kind of music, at all. But wow her voice is simply soothing...love her most in 1, 2, 3, 4....just brings an instant smile.

Thanks for the headsup...keep it comming

I enjoyed Let it Die more than the Reminder, but that may change with time. I enjoy both her voice as well as her lyrics. I find them quite poetic.

I also find her voice in certain songs (Tout Document) soooo sexy. Sultry may be a better word for it.

While in songs like Let it Die or The Water her voice is haunting. From a gentle whisper to a loud powerful wail.

I enjoyed the recommendation so thank you JonJon and anyone that cosigned.

Ironically so did my dad who overheard it playing in the car. (First time in a long time he complemented me on my musical tastes)

*his exact quote*
"Now this is music, not that vacuum cleaner washing machine crap you usually listen too"

Im embarassed I hadn't given her a listen much sooner.

1, 2, 3, 4.... this is a solid song, but Apple commercials are driving me up the wall hearing it over and over.

PS the video is awesome in full.

Really still trying to wrap my head around Feist, typically would be something I would enjoy but im still getting into her-

Best song is "Brandy Alexander" followed by "So sorry"
