Product Description: Canadian singer Leslie Feist has served as a guest vocalist for Norwegian folkies Kings of Convenience, Toronto power-pop troupe Broken Social Scene, and - under the frightening moniker "Bitch Lap-Lap" - the hairy female rapper Peaches. But her unruly resume hardly prepares you for the emotionally rich, softy sensual music on her major label debut. Moving from tortured torch songs such as "Lonely Lonely" to pulsating originals like "Mushaboom," it also contains stunning remakes of Ron Sexsmith's "Secret Heart" and the Bee Gees' "Inside and Out," tunes Feist not only makes her own but effectively uses to dissect her romantic desolation. "Don't you wish we could forget that kiss?" she smolders on the title track. Not in this lifetime. --Aidin Vaziri

Customer Reviews
A Masterpiece of Mood
When I bought this album 2 years ago I immediately latched onto it like a long lost friend. I found that I couldn't put it down and it became something that I used to help me get through bad times, stressful times, times when I just needed to chill out and forget about life for an hour.
I still listen to it on a weekly basis to this day.
There are few works of art in music which are as sublimely beautiful as this. Feist has been blessed with one of the purest, most beautiful voices is music and she imparts her delivery with a cool, detached demeanor which is very seductive.
Although her sound is unique to herself, the vibe that her music gives off is very reminiscent (to me) of one of my favorite all time singers..Sade.
Feist's versatility is amazing. She runs through a number of different genres and excels in each.
One Evening and Leisure Suite are two of my favorite tracks and are absolutely gorgeous R & B. Definately music to play for a romantic evening.
The sparse songs like Gate Keeper and Let it Die put Feists vocals on center stage and she is more than up to the task as she laments love's inconsistancies but remains hopeful (Gatekeeper) even while she mourns for a failed relationship (Let it Die).
Mushaboom is charming and catchy folk rock song. When I Was a Young Girl is a haunting take on a traditional folk song that will have you hitting the replay button.
Her cover of the Bee Gees Inside and Out is an absolute Home Run. A great dance song but still retaining her classy, laid back vibe.
This is a great album. One that you will enjoy over and over again. Extremely listenable ..pop no doubt, but very well done and tasteful pop which elevates the listener to a wonderful and dreamlike state.

Beautiful, Wonderful, Gorgeous, Enchanting
Simply one of the best CD's I've ever owned. Just a delight from start to finish, Feist's vocals are gorgeous without being sing songy. This album remains in a very small list of my all time favorite albums. Great songwriting and lovely melodies. Just perfect!!

A mesmerizing journey of music
An absolute dream. A wonderful musical feast from a very gifted songstress. Buy this record. The perfect mix of pop, soft rock, folk, jazz and yes, even disco. It's a perfect 10. The Reminder isn't bad either, but you want to start with this, and most likely you will stick with this...like I did.

A work of musical art! Just about every song is worth hitting the repeat button!
I first heard of Feist with Mushaboom on an online music program I had at work. No radio stations would ever play it and I could never remember her name to buy a CD! Finally, I was in a restaurant and heard Mushaboom on their dining room radio. After that I went and bought the CD just for that song. I ended up skipping over (and still do) Gatekeeper but love just about every other song on that CD. It's so real, the lyrics and even the instruments just pull you into her moment with the song. Even if you aren't deep into lyrics and all that, it's a fabulous CD and worthy of a purchase!
