Feist was a name that the greater portion of the United States had not even heard of until a simple marketing campaign greatly boosted the popularity of this Indi Artist. No, it was after the hit song “1234″ featured on the iPod nano commercial that a majority of Americans were finally able to listen to the sensation that had been more popular in both Canada and Europe since the 2001.

Now, skyrocketing in popularity, one might wonder what differentiates Feist from most of today’s music. The answer is rather simple. This lady knows that successful songs mean having three key points: Great sound, memorable lyrics, and the voice of a Siren.

Feist incorporates many genres of music into her songs, but she’s best known for delving into alternative and folk music, and merging both types together to make catchy, original music. The most popular single so far is “1234″, which is #8 on the US Hot 100 and #34 on the US Modern Rock Chart. Personally, I like “My Moon My Man” better, but both songs prove one thing: This gal has talent and deserves the popularity she’s deserved.
