Music Video: Feist, "I Feel It All"

My love for Feist is not exactly a secret around here, so I'm pleased to report that Ms. Leslie is looking as adorable as ever in her new music video for "I Feel It All," one of my favorite tracks from last year's The Reminder. The video comes from the director behind the sweet and (thanks to Apple) totally inescapable video for "1 2 3 4," but this one seems a bit simpler. Instead of a sparkly Read more

CD Review: Feist, The Reminder

When I first picked up Canadian singer-songwriter Feist's breakthrough album, 2004's Let it Die, I thought it was perfectly pleasant background music. Her '70s-infused, lounge-y songs seemed perfect for a dinner party, or for playing faintly while I flipped through a magazine. Only the catchy "Mushaboom" really made me sit up and take notice, wedging itself in my head for days on end. With her Read more

Song of the Day: Feist, "1,2,3,4"

Ever since Feist released her debut album, Let It Die, in 2004, I've had her pegged as the next crossover indie-rock darling. And if a profile in Sunday's New York Times is an indication, my prediction may finally be coming true. This song "1,2,3,4" — off Feist's new album, The Reminder, due May 1 — is by far the catchiest, most mainstream offering I've heard from the Canadian singer. I love Read more

Music Video: Feist, "The Park"

If only people would listen to less Norah Jones and more Feist and Cat Power, the world of singer-songwriters would be a much cooler place. Maybe Feist's album coming out May 1, The Reminder, will be the Canadian artist's big breakthrough. Or not. Regardless, I was delighted to find the new Feist new video, "The Park" — and on AOL's Spinner.com blog, no less. I don't like this track as much Read more

Song of the Day: Feist, "My Man My Moon"

Leslie Feist, better known simply as Feist could easily be the next Norah Jones or a quirky indie darling along the lines of Cat Power or Joanna Newsom. Though the Calgary singer has played with weirdo electroclash artist Peaches and the more experimental Broken Social Scene, her lovely ballads are lush and catchy with a comforting DIY feel. This new track "My Man My Moon," from her next album, Read more

What Is Twig Tea, Anyway?

What Is Twig Tea?

Alicia Silverstone claims that twig tea, also called kukicha, cures just about everything. And we've been noticing it appearing in more and more stores (we also saw it a few times at the Fancy Food Show). But what's the deal with all of the hype? Twig tea is essentially a Japanese blend of the tough stems, stalks, and twigs from the Camellia sinensis plant. These bits usually get discarded, but Read more

Glee Recap "The Spanish Teacher"

Glee goes Latin this week when guest star Ricky Martin stops by to shake it and teach Mr. Schue a thing about Spanish (which, despite being a Spanish teacher, he does not know). A couple more people find out about Finn and Rachel's engagement, though Mercedes and Sam are still far more unclear about their relationship. Sue also announces a highly frightening desire to be a mother while clawing at Read more
