I had been meaning to check Feist out, now I'm even more curious, I like her voice, it reminds me of Martha Wainwright.  I think it might be the Cicadas and Gulls track...  I couldn't get the website to work for me so I went to itunes.

I really wanna know which is it, i've been listening to it but can't tell. Isn't she singing but like playing the piano? or background singing?

I was trying to find something on it, but not even amazon has it on the track list.  maybe a copy of it in a store will have it on the back of the cd or something.  there are a few songs that have piano in them, but that could be anyone.  I wasn't too sure about the song either because it just sounds like layers of Fiest's voice, but there are a few times where it sounds like it could be Vanessa.

I just went to FB to comment on that post to ask which track and someone already did!  Hopefully someone will answer or a fan will know and tell us.

Hmm.. it makes sense that they would collab for a track. I completely forgot that they went on the Cape Farewell trip together!

Yeah.. I love these sorts of Vanessa pics. She manages to stand out (in the good sense) :)

I bought the Cicada song and I still can't tell if it's her on that song or not. If it is her, the vocals are not loud enough to really tell.  :-\

I thought of that too. In fact, I've just listened to the whole album and I think she just plays piano or keyboards somewhere.

Yeah.. if V is providing background vocals, they aren't discernible. After listening to the preview a few times, I'm almost convinced that it's just layers of Feist's harmony.

Me too. I bet it is just her playing piano on a song.

according to a reply from some random Feist fan on last.fm where I asked the question of which song,...
that information may be "fake"

so...

we don't even know for a fact that Vanessa had anything to do with Feist's new album.

I say someone should ask her personally.

Huh. I'm going to a show on the 14th, if we don't know by then and if I get a chance to, maybe I could (muster up some courage 8)) and ask her about it.

What?!??! I LOVE Feist! CRAZY!

Also, I've listened to the whole album multiple times since the release, and there's no sign of Vanessa's vocals anywhere. Are you guys sure she contributed to it?  :-\

A few reviews online said so. They specifically read "duet with Feist", hence the subject title of this thread  :D Maybe it's one of those extra tracks that you find on deluxe editions?

If you google "feist vanessa carlton duet," literally every article has the same exact sentence, so it's clear nobody knows what they're talking about and everybody's just copying the original source haha.

I'd listen to the album and try to find her, but honestly it's so terrible I can't see myself doing that haha

I think it's pretty good too : ) I think she's inspired by the same things V is which is refreshing

so I know we already came to this conclusion but I bought the CD the other day and no where in it does it mention Vanessa.  whoever posted that on "zune" was mis informed.  So far, I really like the CD though
