Dainty vocal dance makes big sound - "The Limit to Your Love" Feist


"The Limit to Your Love" Feist

This song moves me in two directions: calm serene green road or sad tear-filled meaning of life reflection. What I love about Feist's songs is that the individual musical components are extremely simple, but her voice is so beautiful, it skips and hops over the chords and notes; it's a loosely woven gossamer, sparkly scarf.

When to play it: After yoga; while thoughtfully reflecting on a lost love under your covers.

How you'll feel: Light.

Side note: I once met a guy from Austria named Gerald Voggenberger at a bar; he came to my house to tell me about his dead grandmother, harp about his love-less broken relationship with his live-in girlfriend, translate "Major Tom" by Peter Schilling for me, and make me listen to the "most beautiful song of all time," this one (true story).
