There's real potency in metal. Metal fans love metal as if it's a nation they would fight for. It's not diluted by pop culture.

I've always been a bit wary of keyboards because there's an invisibility to it - you're not really hitting anything.
Feist
You hit a guitar, you hit a note, you hit a drum, you hit an organ. Meat and potatoes. Simplicity. Not getting too caught up in little tweezers of perfection.

No matter who weaves in and out of your life, regardless of the quality of those deep friendships and familyships, I'm the only common denominator at this point who's been with me the whole time. And there's this sense of trying to make sense of that ultimate solitude. It's not a negative or even a positive. It's just a fact.

Feist
There are certain parts of chords that resolve things and tie a bow, and others that keep things open and unanswered.
Feist
If you calculate every single thing you could possibly need in your life, you would need no more than 200 people to keep all that afloat: a doctor, food, wine, cheese-eating friends, the person who makes paper, the shoemaker.
Feist
A year's a long time, but it also flickers past in no time at all.
Feist
I haven't been living anywhere because I've been on tour for the past two years.
Feist
Well, there's just some universal truths in a way that I've just observed to be true. You read Voltaire. You read modern literature. Anywhere you go, there's these observations about romantic love and what it does people, and these rotten feelings that rarely are people meaning to do that to each other.
Feist
I find it pretty fascinating how humans keep gravitating towards these giant centers. I went to this walled medieval village in France this year, and it was truly the most crazy, beautiful, bizarre place I've ever been.
Feist
I don't think that village idea of actually knowing what you're contributing to the whole exists anymore.
Feist
If you keep bashing your head against the same wall, at some point you're going to fall over and be still for awhile.
