I don't know if there's already a thread for this. I couldn't find one. I really like her album. I haven't read a review that does it justice and I think it deserves some love.

I haven't heard her solo stuff. I do really like the Stars album Set Yourself on Fire. And her work with BSS is pretty amazing as well.

I'm not familiar with her solo work or Stars but I am positive Emily Haines is in BSS. She's the backing vocals on numerous songs (Almost Crimes anyone?)

Ahh ok, gotcha. I think we can all agree she's quite the foxy lady though. Oh yeah and she sings occasionally too.

Amy Millan. also came out with a solo album in '06 (which didn't do much for me)


Mix a little folly with your plans: It is sweet to be silly at the right moment.

I'm nearly positive that Haines does not sing on "Almost Crimes". I believe the backing vocals are Feist on that one. Haines sings on "Anthem For a Seventeen Year-Old Girl" on You Forgot it in People and "Swimmers" on the s/t. She's definitely the vocalist for Metric.

Amy Millan is the vocalist for Stars.

It's pretty tough to keep the members of BSS and their other projects straight.

You are correct, sir.

I do like the Emily Haines and the Soft Skeleton disc from last year though. Good stuff.

You guys are right. Sorry to lead us astray, I got my Broken Social Scene chicks mixed up. Anyways, Amy Millan and Stars are pretty good too.

And Amy Millan is the chubby, sloppy one. Picture

I saw Feist live, and she's even hotter in person. She's tiny. Maybe 5'2" or so. Skinny, cute as shit.

So, Amy is the cold one? WTF? Do you know anything about "Built for comfort, not for speed?" Cool

I think Emily Haines is the hotter of both of them. Plus she sings on "Swimmers" and she sounds damn sexy on that song.

Haines vs. Feist

Tried to pick good shots of both. Both of them actually have their bad moments as well if you do a little google image searching.

I'm definitely a brunette man, so Feist wins this battle of hotness hands down. Plus she's feisty (couldn't resist).

I don't personally think either of them are exactly knock-outs. Maybe my standards are a little too high, but if those are the best pictures we can find of Haines and Feist, I'm yet to be impressed. Not ugly by any means, but they're not "hot".

BSS is dissected here , also, check out the Emily Haines "Dr. Blind" video here. I love me some Emily Haines. She's sexy. But heck, so is Leslie Feist (who's new album is reviewed here. Hope those are worth reading.
