Feist loves counting

Oh man, did that make me smile.

Am I the only one that prefers this self-parody version of the song to the original? (keeping in mind that I like the original a lot)

I like her little "yes we got the sucker!" look at the end!

Ha, I like "Chickens just back from the shore"

She is great.

Of course, if any kids listen to the original, it'll seriously screw up their counting to ten.

OSSOM - kids today get all the good stuff. I need to get that on DVD or something (39th season`I'm on the hunt now), Perle loves Feist but hates youtube.

Perle loves Feist
So does my little guy. Hooray for babies with good taste! I can't wait to show this to him.

I have a real soft spot for anyone willing to go on Sesame Street, especially when they're willing to parody themselves. Like when REM did Furry Happy Monsters. That's the smiliest I've ever seen Michael Stipe and it made me lurv him even more. (Peter Buck, on the other hand, needs to lighten the f up.)

Good grief, that's a Kate Pierson muppet, isn't it?

Cool, now maybe her ex-roomie can go on the show.

That was truly awesome. Thanks for sharing that.

Aside from the music, the thing I really, really love about Feist is that she is such fucking goof. And an unapologetic one, at that.
