Chill

Feist' new vid and song titled 1234 (click on the pic for the link),from her upcoming album premiered a day or so ago,and it's pretty fun stuff.The song feels calmly careless and urges you to not be worried or tensed,and the vid is awesome.Though her music feels a tad unoriginal-the childlike playfulness of Architecture of Helsinki,Camera Obscura vocals,a dash of Neko Case feel-it does possess a certain panache,just not a strong one.

Okay,reading the Wiki entry for Feist,I now know why I liked it.Apparently Feist is also a proud member of Broken Social Scene-which is an amazing band,with a much more solid and distinctive sound.And if you haven't checked them out,you should (Recommended:Anthems For a 17 Year-old,Lover's Spit and also Feist-Mushaboom).Maybe not one of my fave bands,but definitely worth listening to-especially on days you choose not to think much or wish to loosen up a little,and feel a bit happy-go-lucky.
And everyone needs to chill a bit,sometime.

yea cool video.

if that video was made in malaysia, people would have gone 'ah, they've taken the video-making business up a notch. this has that high quality feel compared to all our previous ones.' the most low budget US vid would still be way better than the high budget ones in kl. i'm just rambling now, like a child on drugs.
