We've all seen the commercial a million and six times, but I just cannot take my eyes off this video. It's all one long single shot. My god!

Just awesome.


EDIT: Sorry, she's not allowing embedding, so I had to repost it with the link to her website.

I believe they used a snippet of this particular music video in nationwide commercials for the launch of a new generation of Apple's famous line of iPod Nanos.

IPod Nano commercial.

Here is another link for a "Making of..." video which makes me appreciate it even more.

Leslie Feist makes wonderfully quirky videos, like this one

SSJTWIZTA

I have such a crush on Feist. The fact that she is Canadian has nothing to do with that...

Check out the video for mushaboom... very cool.

Wikipeadia says she used to front a punk rock band.

Wonder how that train jumped the tracks? She's so far from punk now. She does have a wonderful voice.

We are big fans around here. Seeing her in February...I'll let you know how it is.

She is a regular with Broken Social Scene and is good friends with Peaches.

Fiest rocks.

I've seen her live twice, and she's AMAZING in person. Of all the performers I've ever seen, she's far and away the most connected with the audience. Her music is awesome, she's a total sweetheart, and she's absolutely adorable.

The first time I saw her was by accident--a friend had tickets to a show at a tiny but popular local music venue, and I had nothing going on that night, and that was my introduction to Feist. That was like two years ago. Since then it's been fantastic watching her make the big time!

ratbastid

I like her so much I had to post about her twice! :P

I don't get why that is so stunning. People do 'one single shot' on Broadway every night, and twice on Wednesdays and Saturdays. It is a fun video, don't get me wrong, but the choreography isn't really all that strong.

One shot shoots are extremely difficult in the film world. It's all timing. While broadway does it all the time.. it doesn't have to translate to film.. and it's just a totally different world.

That being said, this is an addictive song, but I'm not a big fan of Feist.
