    Until a month ago, I had never heard of Feist, never been drawn to indie music, that I knew of, and was fairly bored by recent musical offerings. I guess I heard Feist on the radio first: "1234" it was. It is a very catchy tune which incorporates unusual changes and has a banjo! I then saw the video on YouTube and thought it was enchanting. Terrific choreography; charming young woman.

    What seems rare to me about Feist in general is that she seems not to be infected by the cynicysm so prevalent in our culture. Her songs have layers of depth, her arrangements are surprising and interesting and then there is her voice. Feist manages to have more facinating nuances in her mouth than any other singer I know. And it is not simply the virtuosity displayed by many R&B or Soul singers who seem never to be content just to sing a line but must run it through a version of scales just to impress us with their vocal pyrotechnics.
    What Feist does is magical. Her voice and phrasing are luscious and fresh.

    My one fear is that Feist's originality will be infected by American culture and success. Far be it from me to tell an artist what to do, (and I really belive Fesit is an artist) but I hope she maintains some distance, stays in France and Canada, for example, and takes lots of time apart and permits herself to maintain health and perspective. My fears for her lead me to begin with the title, "Do not listen to Feist!" (OK, listen but don't tell too many of your friends). I get the sense from her work that it was created in a place seperate from the standard expectations of the studio and I just would hate to mess it up for her.

    In sum, "The Reminder" and her previous work, "Let it Die" are the most intelligent and creative Cds I have bought in a decade.

    I'll admit it: I discovered Feist through that colorful iPod commercial that featured "1234" on it. Despite discovering an artist through advertising, it introduced me to the world of Leslie Feist and her smokey, alluring voice.

    I bought it on MP3 (through the iTunes store, no less) immediately, and have since celebrated her entire discography from Let It Die to the most recent Pleasure, her work with Broken Social Scene, her appearances on the Kings of Convenience albums, and she has never ceased to amaze me.

    This album stands out as her best work, in my opinion. It's starts out with an apology (So Sorry), and ends with an explanation (How My Heart Behaves). The arrangement was masterfully done with a natural mix of up and down tempo songs, almost making it seem like the record is breathing while you are listening to it.

    I just acquired this album on vinyl (a beautiful white colored disc, no less!), and it sounds even more perfect than I've enjoyed it before. With so many quiet, reflective moments on the album it's important to reduce noise and Rhino definitely accomplished that. I have a feeling this is going to be on repeat for a few days.

    Beautiful songs. Her lyrics are amazing, I loved this CD by Feist.
    Played it over and over!
  • Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2007
    The new album "The Reminder" by Canadian gal Leslie Feist is receiving mixed critical reviews, but some are calling it the best pop music album so far this year. I ordered it, and my take on it is also mixed, in this sense: Feist is a great songwriter, and this album is exhibit one. Not all of the songs are great, but many of them achieve greatness. Feist's previous album also contained great songs (and some less compelling material), but only about half of them were Feist originals. Here, almost everything is Feist-penned.

    Remember the "1234" Busby Berkely-inspired video of Feist from Youtube, that people seemed to enjoy so much? If you haven't seen it, check it out -- it is pure joy wrapped in a 3 minute package. That song is also a minor musical masterpiece, with guitar, banjo, a chorus of voices, quiet bits, loud joyful bits -- put together in a way that things are always changing enough to keep the ear from being bored at any time.

    When I think of the Beatles work, or XTC, or James Taylor, Sting, Paul Simon, I think of music that is put together in a very entertaining and craftsmanlike way. A primitive like Bob Dylan (don't get me wrong, I love a lot of what Bob has done, but it is musically primitive) will take a simple three chord verse, then repeat it over and over with different lyrics. The greatest songwriters make music that builds, crescendos, then rolls back, with themes and variations, and little musical bridges (or "middle eights," as the Beatles used to call them). Feist is writing music like that, at least some of the time.

    Oh, there are a few quieter numbers that almost approach dirges. I'm not much fond of those. Much of their fault lies in the underproduction -- one of them sounds as if it was recorded in Feist's garden, with her simply strumming her guitar and singing (later joined briefly by brass instruments and perhaps saxophone, but not much else). More complexity and attention to detail in the arrangements could have brought much more out of those quiet songs.

    I'm not a great analyser of lyrics. Here they are vague enough to be universal. To me they don't always make sense, but that doesn't bother me. "goo goo ga joob" Does that make any sense? No. It doesn't mean it isn't a great lyric. The main thing is that Feist's lyrics are not embarrassing -- they don't take away from the music. And some of her wordplay and vocal phrasing is quite clever.

    So my final rating is
    Songwriting: 4.5 out of 5
    Production: varies from 3 to 5 out of 5, depending on the track.

    Reviewed in Canada on December 25, 2018
    In a time of 'singles', this is a great album of songs. I grew up with albums and do not like spending money on albums which only have a couple good songs on them, therefore I can recommend this album in which all of the song I deem to be good. The vinyl version which I purchased has a very good sound to it as well. Recommended!

    5.0 out of 5 stars una nuova e lucente stella nel cantautorato femminile
    Reviewed in Italy on March 13, 2016
    Ho conosciuto Leslie Feist attraverso "Metals" del 2011 e mi aveva colpito moltissimo, tanto da spingermi a cercare altri suoi lavori. Ed eccomi tra le mani questo "The reminder" del 2007 e a ritrovarmi altrettanto colpito. Artista di indubbia classe Leslie Feist. Non si indovinano due album del genere per caso ( e da quel che si legge in giro "Let it die" del 2004 è allo stesso livello), ci vuole talento e grande abilità compositiva. Che la Feist abbia una grossa cultura sul cantautorato femminile è scontato. Che abbia alcuni numi tutelari, tra cui Carol King e Joni Mitchell, non ci piove. Che sappia trasportare la tradizione folk pop nel nuovo millennio mantenendo un occhio sulla classicità e uno sulla modernità è un pregio che la rende artista di primo piano. Tredici brani che hanno nella sua voce pura e limpida la linea guida. Voce che poggia su arrangiamenti altrettanto puri che sanno essere sofisticati senza essere ridondanti. Lo si capisce fin dalla prima traccia, "So sorry", incanto allo stato puro cosi come lo è "The park". Sono questi i due brani più intimi del lotto. A contrasto arriva una "I feel it all" dal ritmo sostenuto e "The limit of our love" pervase da scosse elettriche. Rasserenante la dolce "One two three four" mentre con "Brandy alexander" e "the water" si torna a mettere il lirismo al centro dell'opera. Che è strepitosamente bella.

    Reviewed in Germany on October 5, 2007
    Eigentlich suchte ich Titel und Interpret aus der i-pod Werbung, wollte mal sehen wie das Liedchen weitergeht das mir nicht mehr aus dem kopf geht.
    1234 tell me that you love me more.
    Ich fand nach etwa einer halben stunde einen Namen, Feist, nie gehört.
    Fand dann auch noch das Video dazu in dürftiger Qualität, aber ich muss sagen das hat etwas.
    Bei Amazon fand ich das dazugehörende Album, das ich mir dann auch bestellte.
    Nach ein paar Tagen erhielt ich eine CD bei deren abspielen mir fast die haare die ich nicht habe zu berge standen, A+E Gitarre- Klavier- Banjo- Orgel- Vibraphon- Schlagzeug- A+E Bass- Trompete-Horn- Melodika- Harfe- Violine- Cello- Glockenspiel, was für ein Instrumentenmix, dazu bei einigen Titeln ein rauschen wie es das kaum bei Vinyl gegeben hat.
    Das war aber noch nicht alles, die Aufnahme der Gesangsstimme, in vielen titeln so wie es das vor zwanzig Jahren bei Noname gruppen nicht schlechter hätte gemacht werden können, und das im Jahre 2007!
    Eine Außenaufnahme mit Vogelgezwitscher, mein alter Kassettenrekorder hätte das wahrscheinlich genauso gut hinbekommen.
    Aber was erzähle ich da, ich habe DIE CD gehört (GENOSSEN, VERSCHLUNGEN, ZELEBRIERT, .........).Ich gehe davon aus das Frau Feist ab jetzt nur noch schlechteres abliefern kann, so ein HAMMER Album gelingt den meisten nur einmal (vielleicht auch nicht!)
    Das was sie mit oben aufgeführtem Equipment und Unzulänglichkeiten ( Gewollt?) fertig gebracht hat ist MUSIEK PUR.
    Diese CD gehört mit zum besten was in meinem CD-Regal (Umfangreiche Sammlung aus verschiedenen Musiekstihlrichtungen) steht.
    CD rein in den Player und Genießen.

    5.0 out of 5 stars 久しぶりに、ちゃんとワクワクする個性派。
    Reviewed in Japan on March 7, 2008
    台所の窓からふわふわ飛び出してしまったり、
    えも言われぬ振り付けで踊ってたり、
    なぜかミュージカル仕立てだったり、
    iPodのCMで気になってからというもの、興味が募るばかりだったファイスト。

    早く聴きたい衝動を押さえつつ1stアルバムから聴き、
    ようーく味わったところで、ようやくこのアルバムを聴きました。

    「Let it die」もかなり個性的でいい曲が揃っていますが、
    この「The Reminder」は、ちょっと変わったアレンジやコーラスなど
    個性に磨きをかけながらも、それがポップで聴きやすい音楽として上手く昇華された名盤。
    1曲1曲に、ファイストという人の体臭がきちんと織り込まれている分、
    前作よりもさらに完成度の高い作品になっていると思いました。

    レコードでは多彩なアレンジが施されてポップス風に仕上がっていますが、
    実はこの人、ギターもかなり上手い。
    ライブでギターを掻き鳴らす姿に自然体の姿勢を感じたりします。

    ソウルミュージックとか、オルタナティブとか、
    何らかのスタイルに因った個性には興味が湧かない私ですが、
    ファイストという人の個性には久しぶりにワクワクしました。
    ヒットして、有名人になっても、このままの姿勢でいてほしい人ですね。
