Let it Die by Feist is an acoustic and pop album that features Canadian Leslie Feist’s seductive voice and folksy style.

“Gatekeeper” makes me think of the singer Jeff Buckley, who although is a man, has a somewhat high singing voice. Their styles are also similar.

“Mushaboom” is an upbeat song that is reminiscent of Joni Mitchell. The song is about growing old with someone and living through all the little things in life. There is some clapping at the end which keeps the tempo up.

“Let it Die” is slow and sexy. In this song, Feist sounds more like Sarah McLachlan, but maybe it is just because of the tone of the song.

“One Evening” has a jazz feel to it with the use of electric guitar and the way the drums are played behind Feist.

“Leisure Suite” is about being with someone intimately and having a time and place for this romantic situation. The song ends with organs playing, which gives it a strange twist.

“Lonely Lonely” uses many metaphors of nature and people. “Water water on the seeds, to my left they rose and leaf.”

Feist is a clever singer who keeps interest by changing the way her voice sounds, using different instruments in her songs and making the words an important aspect so that people will listen closer.

“When I was a Young Girl” sounds like an African American spiritual song as she tells a story of sadness and she is playing drums with her hands at the same time.

“Secret Heart” begins slowly but then picks up with the jumpy cello and drums in the background. This song is fun because of all its different sounds.

“Inside and Out” is definitely more poppy than the other songs. There are synthesizers that almost squeak and the chorus is catchy. Feist is “the girl who loves you inside and out.”

“Tout Doucement” is a song in French as she is a Canadian and is living in Paris at the time. She speaks of living life carefully and slowly and not rushing.

“Now At Last” is a gentle song about love and finding out that she knows what it is. The song is dreamy with the piano playing and the soft and soprano voice of Feist.

Even though she does sound a little like other artists, Feist has an incredibly unique style that separates her into a different category of pop, folk and love songs.
