What Parents Need to Know
About The Reminder
Parents need to know that kids may want this CD after hearing the popular single "1234" that was featured in an iPod commercial. The album is a masterful creation in poetry and musicianship that deals in regret, the past, dreams, and love. It touches on topics that may not fully be realized by teens (true love, regret), but fine for them to listen to. One song describes brandy as a metaphor for infatuation with a boy.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about how ads and TV shows create a buzz with music. Is it strange that a band suddenly becomes popular after their song is played on-air -- even if they had an album out for months before? How does music affect a commercial? What do you remember after seeing an ad or a scene from your favorite show -- the plot or the music? Families can also talk about the consequences of an artist reinventing himself or herself with a new album. Is the music always the same?

Feist is a great singer, eh?
Feist is a great singer! Her best songs are: 1234, my moon my man, sea lion woman, mushaboom, and inside and out. She is one of my favourite singers! Go get this, it's real music!! - mariah, eh?

boring...
You could probably fall asleep to this music. Almost all the songs on this cd are boring. My dad bought this cd and I thought I might like it after hearing the song 1234. Once I listened to it I thought it was awful. I don't recommend this unless you are looking for some night time music to fall asleep to.
