I Burned a Feist CD

Dear Everyone,

I burned a Feist CD today. I downloaded it, I imported it, and I burned it to a blank CD. I just figured I'd let everybody know so that there aren't any questions later.

I'm still the same person, guys. Really, I am.

I don't find her attractive. Feist, I mean. I think she's got a stupid name and the cover of her album looks like an albino scarecrow trying to hang itself.

It really is about the music.

Except that I'm not really listening to the music, either.

Really, its just the one song. The "1234" song. I think its called "1234."

I find it catchy, I like the banjo, I like how it starts quietly and builds into an orchestral piece. Her voice is nice, I guess. Sort of like an angel who just joined a the heavenly choir, but hasn't been around long enough to really find a niche. Like a beginner angel, somebody who just died.

You're probably wondering why I burned an entire album if I'm just going to listen to one song. Well, the answer is, I have no idea.

But I'm serious when I say I'm still the same person. My only experience with Feist was on the muted TVs in my former school's cafeteria, as that music video where she dances in the street and then flies away played.

To be honest, I don't even remember when I heard the song the first time.

And is she saying "Those teenage hoes" after the first chorus? I don't know why I'm asking you, I'm the one whose been listening to it a lot more lately. But is she?

That seems inappropriate.

But, that kind of shows that I don't really know anything about what the song is trying to say, too. Like I can't even say, "Yeah, I think Feist is unappealing to most of my senses, but I think her message is strong."

That'd be the honorable way out. I'm not doing that.

Just a catchy tune, I guess. Though I don't really know anything about songwriting, either. Whether its the lyrics or the melody. Zero knowledge.

To sum up, I enjoy Feist's voice because she sounds like she just died and is in heaven, learning the ropes.

Thank you,

Justin
