From Romford to New York, Back to back private recitals to
a live debut before 150,000 people, Imogen Heap has come a
long way since her childhood days in Essex. Still 20 years
old, strikingly individual and ahead-turning 6 feet tall,
Imogen Heap's name is an real as her music. You're unlikely
to forget either....

Imogen spent her formative years in Essex, relocating to a
Quaker boarding school in Cambridge at the age of 12. A
loner at heart, Imogen found solace in the adjoining Music
school, where she could take flight from the claustrophobia
of boarding school life. The secluded music room bore
witness to Imogen's growing confidence, from learning the
blues scales on piano, to pacifying her bullies with
private recitals and exclusive snips of songs in progress. More...

    Review about Imogen Heap

    grandiose | Reviewer: hrmm
        ------ About the song Hide and Seek performed by Imogen Heap

    Okay, obviously everyone's interpretation of this song is going to be different.

    Mine--however--is that this is in the mindset of a serial killer. They don't know consciously, but subconsciously they are questioning the authority.

    The symbolism of hide and seek is correlating to the game. When I read the lyrics and listen to the song. The first verses seem to correlate with the individuals who are victim. Then she sings of this game hide and seek, then continues into how the family is taking this:
    Oily marks..... fingering printing the houses for evidence where pleasureable events once took place, now being replaced with this disturbing thoughts.

    Then she continues to go one about the game of hide and seek.

    The best part is the 'mmmm... whatcha say.....'

    I think that is the fight between the killers conscience.

    Then it continues to talk about the serial killer and how he goes about it time after time and doesn't really care about the consequence


    Hm. | Reviewer: Luci
        ------ About the song Hide and Seek performed by Imogen Heap

    Ah, this is the song which brought me and my then boyfriend now fiance back together.

    To me this song is based on the realisation of a lost relationship or something along those lines anyway.

    where are we?
    what the hell is going on?
    - Cofusion, inevitably part of a bad break up.

    the dust has only just begun to form
    crop circles in the carpet
    sinking feeling
    - Something that was once there has now gone, and left a mark where it was, followed by sadness.

    spin me round again
    and rub my eyes,
    this can't be happening
    when busy streets a mess with people
    would stop to hold their heads - heavy
    - Cannot comprehend what is happening, and the act of holding your head in your hands when your upset.


    oily marks appear on walls
    where pleasure moments hung before the takeover,
    the sweeping insensitivity of this still life
    - Oily marks perhaps where a picture once was?, happy times once were, now gone. The understanding of life somewhat.


    Mmmm whacha say,
    Mmmm that you only meant well?
    well of course you did
    Mmmm whacha say,
    Mmmm that its all for the best?
    Because it is
    Mmmm whacha say?
    Mmmm that it's just what we need
    you decided this
    whacha say?
    Mmmm what did she say?
    - Its All for the best? its what we need?
    [time apart, All for the best]


    ransom notes keep falling out your mouth
    mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut outs
    speak no feeling no i don't believe you
    you don't care a bit,
    you don't care a bit
    - The feeling of being left behind or forgotten, like the person didnt care.


    ect.
    I prefer to breadkdown a song into parts, rather than look at the whole.
    my interpretation may not be right.
    But hey =]

    GOOD SONG.





    my take | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song The Moment I Said It performed by Imogen Heap

    after reading several comments, i'm a fan of the "drunk" idea, but i have always thought of this song in a different way. "IT" that she said was the infamous "i love you." she said those words to him, and it scared him off - he didn't react the way that was ideal and the relationship (or supposed relationship) will never be the same.


    Trippy... And musically remarkable. | Reviewer: jay
        ------ About the song Hide and Seek performed by Imogen Heap

    This song is the shit when your high. You get embraced and raptured in the fat chords created by the thick electronic sounds. However the trippiness isn't achieved just by the variance in dynamics. The chord progressions, using strange minor identities is what really gives this song merit and genius. I also enjoy how the song is primarily freely conducted, not necessarily following
    any kind of time signature or meter; its as if the notes are being felt rather than played. I love it, and its really the gateway song that led me to explore more of her music, as well as her career in Frou Frou. Everything is so versatile. Dont try and give her a genre, because like her music, she doesn't conform to anything.


    just grateness! | Reviewer: fate
        ------ About the song Hide and Seek performed by Imogen Heap

    oh,well i'd like to begin with clearify to who ever wrote that rap is about rape and murders
    that he or she could be wrong,some of the subjects that they discuss (rappers) are oftenly interesting and real.And for imogen, i can only hope that she'll continue doing music,the lyrics of hide and seek are grate!


    im strangley drawn | Reviewer: emma
        ------ About the song Speeding Cars performed by Imogen Heap

    my sister loaded some songs on2 my ipod when i got it this morning, i heard this song while flipping threw stuff i hadnt heard of. i heard this song and thought that it was really cool. it kind of reminded me of the band "the postal service" and the song "cozy in a rocket" I LUV THIS BAND!


    O my gosh | Reviewer: Monica
        ------ About the song Hide and Seek performed by Imogen Heap

    I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!
    It is my favorite song in the whole world
    this song really stands out and is so different than what is coming out lately. The omation and deepness of the lyrics is what really made me fall in love with this song. I could seriously sit in my chair listening to this song just thinking about it and how it relates to me. Personally, I think the interpretation of this song is completely from your view point so I'm not going to explain what my interpretation of the lyrics are. I would like to hear what this song was truly inspired by, but that is it. That is one of the reason this song never gets old; everytime I hear it I think of another meaning. I could go on and on and on about this song so i will stop now.

    -MMMMMM


    hmmmm | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Hide and Seek performed by Imogen Heap

    Well I think this song can have no meaning or it might mean an affair, I was reminded of World War 2, and even Iraq a little. But it all depends on how you can interperate it. Heap might not even know what exactly the song stands for. She could have just wrote she felt at that time. The thing is if it means alot to other people its a very good song.


    Haunting | Reviewer: AegisRose
        ------ About the song Come here boy performed by Imogen Heap

    This song is one of those that haunts you for days. Imogen's sultry voice is so sensous and beckoning. The lyrics are simple, yet profound. this sound is deliciously provoking~ It happens to strike a chord for anyone that has found themselves in that limbo between love and lust... It's a true work of art.


    ..... | Reviewer: Syd
        ------ About the song Hallelujah performed by Imogen Heap

    I love imogen heap now she is like the best i first heard on the O.C (which the O.C totally rocks it is like the best show EVER MADE)and then i started downloading all of her songs and now i love her music


    <3 | Reviewer: Amanduhz
        ------ About the song Hide and Seek performed by Imogen Heap

    This song is amazin

    And the meaning is of course about an affair.

    It's quite simple Oily marks on the wall.. = pictures after taken down ..

    Trains Sewing Machines = Toys of children... trians for boy sewing machines for girl

    And it mentions "she" at the end of MMmm whatcha say part.


    <3

    Of course the sad melody will remind us of the war in iraq and 9/11 but thats just because of our generation and what we apply the sadness to.

    - Meh


    Wow | Reviewer: Westy
        ------ About the song Hide and Seek performed by Imogen Heap

    This song is amazingly touching and just hearing it makes me wanna like cry. The Song is very helpful to sad and hurtful moments my favorite part is Mm wacha say.. till the end. The Music and lyrics of this song are also unbelieveable.


    smash | Reviewer: tally1302
        ------ About the song The Moment I Said It performed by Imogen Heap

    So often in an argument you say something you know will be really really hurtful just to spite the person you're arguing with... and then instantly regret it. This song captures the underlying sadness when the words have the cutting affect they were supposed to... and just make the other person kind of snap inside and you know that you can't go back and unsay them and nothing will ever be the same again :(.

    I love the way she says "smash"... obviously the person she's arguing with is taking out his frustrations on objects (as one does) such as plates etc... but the last smash is the smashing of their relationship, his heart (at her words) and her heart when she realises "you're gonna throw it all away with no hesitation"


    Searching for Meaning --- Hide and Seek | Reviewer: Mandrake Strangelove
        ------ About the song Hide and Seek performed by Imogen Heap

    I've read through this page and seen the ruminating speculations as to the songs true meaning. What I feel obligated to say is that perhaps there is no true meaning. Even if Imogen Heap did have a specific event in mind when writing the song, I believe that we are better off not knowing what that event was because it would diminish the ambiguous mystique that makes the song what it is.

    With all that being said, Hide and Seek is one of few modern songs. It can completely change one's mood and make the listener ruminate over the songs perfection, a distinct quality rarely found in today's generation of record-label pawns and rappers that glorify the rape and murder of innocents.

    Fantastic Artist | Reviewer: Alyshaz
        ------ About the song The Walk performed by Imogen Heap

    The lyrical content of her songs are just a plus to the melodies and fine tuning she does. I found Imogen a couple of years back and from my understanding she is due to release a new album. Can't wait to see the outcome!


    dp/dr | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Hide and Seek performed by Imogen Heap

    i personally relate to this song as being about derealization/depersonalization disorder having it myself its spot on in expressing the feelings of having this disorder. it would be cool to find some sort of evidence or interview or something of her having it, but i agree with alot of you with the relationship family breakup scenario but its perfect for me the way i interpret it and its just a beautiful song and just thanks to the artist. songs are the best when you can relate emotionally and this one is certainly beautiful enough for anyone to take something from it


    Something Pevensie-ish | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Just For Now performed by Imogen Heap

    As I read the lyrics and listened to the song after seeing Prince Caspian in a local theater, I couldn't help remembering a certain scene in the early parts of the movie: the one when the four Pevensie kids ran along a shore and splashed water to each other.
    It was the one scene that was both warm and made me teary... the feeling of being together and then torn apart.


    i love this song | Reviewer: Maddy
        ------ About the song Hide and Seek performed by Imogen Heap
