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. <I>--Aidin Vaziri</I>

Customer Reviews:

2 out of 5 stars Time to Let it Die.......2007-05-18

I read that Feist was a sort of Norah Jones on steroids. I like Norah Jones but I'm not crazy about Norah Jones. I wanted originality. I wanted a jazz singer with a little more punch than Norah Jones. After making it through the first 8 tracks of Let It Die, I did. Feist needs steroids. Her voice is weak. There's a sexy breathless style common these days and then there's "I have no lung capacity". Feist seems the latter. Steroids could help.

Sorry, I didn't like it. The sound quality is poor which may contribute to the artist's poor performance. 2 stars because it's different and different is good. I don't think things will get better in future releases because the talent doesn't burst through. There's talent in her but not in the quantity to smash into your CD "Top Played" list.

3 out of 5 stars Not what I expected.......2007-05-14

I first heard feist a few weeks ago on the radio. The remix song intrigued me so I picked up "let it die".

For half the songs, think Nora Jones meets Portishead. A few uptempo originals and a couple covers mixed with slow melancholy tunes.

Although the vocals are beautiful, controlled and well timed; the rythms and instrumentals left me wanting more. I expected to hear an uptempo album but instead thought this CD was better for an evening with headphones on, lights off, winding down.

5 out of 5 stars Simply wonderful.......2007-05-14

I have to say, I went to see Feist perform and fell in love. Then I purchased the CD and oh my golly. Fantastic, eclectic, yongue-in-cheek wonderful. I love love love it and can't get enough of it.

5 out of 5 stars Favorite CD - Fun and Sassy.......2007-03-23

I adore this CD, and am now a huge Feist fan.
