I fell asleep before it was completed. Of all the songs in the universe..they picked Islands in the Stream for duet?

*Yawn* Another Fiest song that sounds exactly like all her other stuff.

I hope I get to hear this one 5 Million times like all her others, thereby making me want to blow my brains out.

Not the best Feist I've heard. Nice interpretation but she gets lost in the delivery.

The guy sounds delicious, but Feist seems a little flat in the low sections. Beautiful and relaxing … thanks Perez!

This site is no longer about Perez blogging about celebs. It's all about Perez's new adventures of promoting causes, double clicks with top emails and shoving new music down our throats. It's all just a pay check to Perez.

There are too many other GOOD blogs out there, that do it for the fun of blogging. Something Perez no longer understands.

OMG! Soooo good! I love both versions!

The mans voice sounded alittle creepy to me.
It was ok,I will not be listening to it again,but nice try
stoju says – reply to this

33

this may be the most retarded cover ever. hate feist, all this bitches are comin on the music scene lately that just sing very strangely and sing retarded simple songs and all of a sudden they are "alternative" and cool and soo different. wake up ppl!! its not talent!!! try the new moby album, jummers.
Kayla says – reply to this

34

Feist is so incredible, and talented. Secret Heart and Inside Out were great covers, but this is so beautiful, like a lullaby. I love it! And such a different vibe than Dolly (who is also one of my faves! Silver Dagger is pure innocence). And for all of you who don't know who Feist is, you need to seriously consider how aware you are of the world outside your belly button. Jeez. Anyway, thanks for putting such an innovative Canadian artist out there Perez! Canada DOES love you!!! xox

Omg , she looks so cute. I saw heron wealthyMen personals site===Wealthy Romance, com=== last week. What is she looking for on that site?
Uproar says – reply to this

37

Her talking, cracking voice is unbearable! Love the concept of this new version, but her non-singing voice on the track STINKS.

absolutely love it. feist has such an amazing sound. she's also gorgeous!

Re: stoju – Moby is not innovative! All he does is rip off folk songs and put them to a up tempo beat. Seriously. That's the best you could do? MOBY?!
Gwen says – reply to this

Annoying until Feist comes in. And even then. I like her, but yeah, all of her stuff sounds the same. I think she's capable of some variety… How ’bout throwing us a bone, Leslie?

BORING. Just like the frozen wasteland they are from.

Re: YES! – Your a dum ass. This sucks
Gwen says – reply to this

45

Re: stoju – I think Feist started that annoying trend. As soon as she became mainstream popular, all of these girls with guitars and voices like hers came out of the woodwork because they saw a formula that worked. I should say she "re"started… if this were back in the 60s, we'd be saying they all want to be the next Melanie or Joni Mitchell.

Wow, either that was someone stepping on a bunch of cats, or THE most craptastic version of that song E.V.E.R.!!!!

One of my all-time favorite collaborations, and re-makes. Although i'm not the biggest fan of the Constantines, this is bay far the best thing thing they've ever done. Thanks Perez for posting it
Alana from Canada says – reply to this

52

Puch a pretty song! I'm not usually a fan of Feist, but I thought she sounded very different and I love the subdude quality of her singing. Its a great remake. And the singer from the Constantines sounded amazing as well!

not as good as the original, but it's pretty good.

Feist is a talented musician/songwriter but I am SO SICK of hearing her boring songs on the radio. SHE NEEDS TO GO AWAY.

I like it, but I still hear Dolly and Kenny singing it somewhere in the back of my mind…
Query says – reply to this

65

Totally great cover — but how does a person download it? It doesn't appear to be on iTunes as part of the new Constantines album. i.e. — where/how did you get this Perez?

I Like Mya and ODB's Ghetto Superstar Better… HaHa!…

Maybe if either one of them could stay on key! What a mess!
Fo Realz says – reply to this

69

It does get better than that — it's called the original version! This new version sucks so bad! I like Feist, but what is with making a happy pop song into a poorly sung durge? Is that supposed to make them seem deep and thoughtful? More like talentless. Lame.

Re: stoju – poor poor you, and yes i agree, moby? really? like i respect the guy but i wouldn't call him like some super talented musician. Feist simply mesmerizes me, I listen to "The Reminder" on vinyl through headphones and you can truly hear the magic within every facet of her songs. she uses bleed so artistically and her seemingly spontaneous use of a 2 track tape machine for a one take song is just beautiful. her voice is beautiful and genuine and hits me in ways n other female artist has to date, she is a true musician. just beautiful.

and oh p.s you use of the words "bitches", and "retarded" really shows your credibility when it comes to anything important. go listen to "we dont get fooled again" by The Who and learn something.

and the constantines are incredible, i love this cover, its very soothing and rich in character especially in the choruses

Re: TRUTH –
well you are just a fucking dumbass, being FORCED to move away from your country and being FORCED to work, obv, does not mean that they wanted to do it. they lived in harsh living conditions and they were sold as if they were a piece of clothing you need to shut the fuck up and take a history class you dumbass mofo. slavery did exist, and all they wanted to stay in their home country and work comfortabley near their families, BITCH. its people like you who make blacks think that we are all racists.

Feist left Calgary many years ago to make it big. She couldn't handle all the hicks in Calgary driving around in pickup trucks and got the hell out of there as quick as she could.

Re: Jimmy – Although I agree that Feist is great, your argument couldn't be more wrong. I live in Calgary and I don't have a single friend in a pick up, nor are they backwards thinking. Your comments are far more hicklike than anyone I know in Calgary. Know what you are talking about before you bad mouth.

Re: Jimmy – ps. Jimmy, Feist was in Calgary last month filming a video.

Great except the Bee Gees wrote and first performed Islands in the Stream, and then lent it to Kenny and Dolly. Also Ghetto Superstar was a spin off of Islands in the Stream for the Bullworth Soundtrack. The more you know!!!!
RM says – reply to this

97

The Kenny/Dolly version of this song being a proclaim your love from the mountaintops kind of thing. This is more two lovers in bed whispering/making their love through the night. Incredibly well done!
