"Feist’s sweet and sultry singing holds together this set of eclectic songs as they vary from peppy to moody to soulful to (almost) disco. The album flows smoothly from one sound to the next; Feist incorporates organs on one track, horns and finger-snapping on the next, guitars on the next, but al..." [+] Reply

"This album meant absolutely nothing to me first few times I heard it, and I have no idea how. Pop-punk was a massive part of my high school experience and I gave all of the big bands a shot, but it seems the appeal of this record was lost on me at the time.
