Feist - 1234 - Letterman 08/27/2007

Feist's fantastic performance on the Late Show with David Letterman. Absolutely brilliant.

[@thestormlscoming]

I love this version so much. The banjo. The horns. The stellar backing vocals and the clap.

[@shawnsemchukmusic8915]

If pop music was every other day of the year, this performance was Christmas.

[@christophercalvin8174]

beautifully put

[@ricksamericana749]

This is one of my go to cheer up pieces on KZbin. It does wonders for chasing away the blues.

[@thestormlscoming]

It’s interesting because the lyrics are quite sad to me. About losing love. I’m curious why she made it so upbeat and fun

[@mikemccag]

Her voice gets me every time... she's amazing.

[@excellinkus]

I just heard this amazing song on the radio for the first time today. Where have I been for the past 20 years?

[@michelpotier2002]

Yvjih Michel Potier

[@mikechapmanmedia2291]

A voice not of this world. Astounding.

[@Zeokoz]

I am pretty sure, in addition to Grizzly Bear, there are a few members of Broken Social Scene in the background. I love Feist voice, and with BSS and Grizzly Bear backing her up, it just makes this song even better!

[@NataliajonesMavrik-wd3qz]

[@beink]

This is a great performance of a great song by one very talented lady and her friends. Just go with it.

[@insomniac161]

Where was this for the past eight years. My life was incomplete until now.

[@pmeadowdale]

I was just thinking something along those same lines, myself...

[@TheQ97]

LESLIE . . . THANKS Much for all the Music Pleasure U Have Given Me!!!!!!

[@alandowney173]

I've been trying to find this song for years

[@MitchHizzall]

So in love with the fact that grizzly bear is singing back up.

[@bhikkhu]

[@matthewlawson6229]

This song reminds me of some of the best moments I have never lived...

[@garrettbauman5704]

Unreal trumpet solo on this version!

[@HCaulfield115]

Magical. Perfect song

[@unloveableandre]

First time I heard this song I fell in love with Feist. Her voice, her face, her body, everything was perfection...

[@mikechapmanmedia2291]

Well, since you admit to it, I guess I can too! Check out her live version of "My Moon My Man" in San Francisco.

[@TobyCostaRica]

It’s the bangs man, the bangs! Like Zoey Deschanel

[@amaiacm]

A great song and live sound even much better.

[@darioscomicschool1111]

So Cool! Thank you from the bottom of my Heart!

[@sequoiasemperviren3163]

She must have brought a busload of clean cut, wholesome young Canadians across the border as back-up singers.

[@ihavesoul4real]

Sequoia Semperviren nope. A bunch of wonderful musicians from various bands

[@jimcummings4342]

That was excellent.

[@custimusti]

Proud to be a canuck too, but embarassed it's taken me so long to find out Feist just rules. Great stuff on Letterman. Can she sing! She just let's it out.

[@rajasmasala]

Love how happy she looks at the end

[@KashinClass]

Funny to see members of The National in the singing choir...

[@ghostguy218]

One of - if not THE most amazing live performer these days! What a great gift! Thx!

[@tschuhster]

Good song and a fun performance. I'm always a little mesmerized by her voice -- she gets her mouth so wide open but the sound coming out of it is so small and thin. It's distinctive, that's for sure.

[@kolsakfrm503]

AWESOME!!!

[@bubulippe]

Perfect!

[@Partyparth]

Its AC Newman! And soo many more Indie musicians! :D

[@osmoore88CFCc]

[@ColinWarwick]

[@fouzanium]

Wonder if money could buy such an impressive backup choir there

[@Tiggles89]

Exactly! I was pretty surprised too

[@Nangsimshotttt]

jista fantastic performance

[@redrabbitrun]

I think it was less than a month before this was filmed that I saw her, Grizzly Bear, and BBS perform at the Mccarren Park pool, in Brooklyn. Best show of the summer!

[@Fresh8604]

This is awesome not only because Feist herself is awesome, but also because Nicole Atkins is in the choir! WTF! That is so cool.

[@MFHender]

I nearly lost my coffee through my nose when I read this!!

[@halimski]

what a fucking awesome show!

[@larakid2591]

that's my favorite version

[@ghostgrabber]

I was there😛

[@Grey80002]

She was just toying with all of you, obviously she loves me more. That voice is for you to enjoy, but only temporarily, she sings me to sleep ever single night.

[@jacko1541]

catchy tune

[@ghostgrabber]

i was there when this was filmed..whoohoo

[@camieliej]

I agree!
