  • i love imogen but i think she should stick with her singing, not doing music videos, like these

  • @samintune14 It's all art. She's an artist.

  • 41 people have had one too many......

    ....whatever. this song kicks much arse!

  • beautiful voice, beautiful woman

  • Awesome. Different.

  • AMAZING

  • OMG! The best song Ive heard in ages!!!!! Cheers from New Zealand. Hope u get as big as u're amazing vibe!

  • immi i hope you read this comment. you are a great inspiration of art, it makes us believe that everything is possible, you are so creative and use everything around you to make music i love that about you... but i wish u come more often to florida =C i would love to see you in concert but i never get the chance.. =C but saying all this i wish you the best, and keep the good work with your beautiful music, dont for get about us.. i wish you to see you someday... take care and enjoy life =D

  • I feel like, the song itself is so warm, while lyrically, its about being detached; and in that way the other video suited it better because it had a much colder feel. However, i feel like this version is much more personal, & has a more warm atmosphere because of the contrast, and ambience of the scene. However the way that shes edited into the scene, as well as the falling-and-catching at the end, still give it almost a bit of an eerie touch. Love this song, Love this artist, love this video.

  • I love this video because its personal and warm and whatever

    BUT, I think we are all forgetting the song is anything but relating to a party that personal and warm. I love this video, but the other one suits the song much better. Immi even said herself that this is her "ideal party", and not the party she is singing about.

    The ony thing I don't like about the other video is that she looks really different, and here she looks more like herself.

  • After seeing Everything In-Between I feel attached to the people at the party. It's so cool to see your trainer actually relaxed and jumping around! ha ha She always seemed so strict in the movie. ha ha I like her. Oli is cool. I want to grow a beard like his one day.

  • Looks fun, cool costumes!

  • I gotta get me some sheep pants!!

  • I want furry pants.

  • not gonna lie, this vid seems...awkwardly executed in some places. but I feel the same way about it as I do a lover; it doesn't matter what they look like or how they move or act, because they're yours, and they're wonderful, and can do no wrong in your eyes. and the song is sublime on its own.

  • love love it

  • epic

  • this is really cool. it also gets your message across better^^ really good, your so talented!

  • That's some hilarious irony

  • yay immi and everyone that helped you out!!!

    totally makes me want to make a hoop video with this song :)

  • Im very glad you did this Immi! :D knowing what the song was about ive always felt as if it didnt really get your meaning cross. :) Youre amazing! Keep it up! :D

    Cheers!

  • i love this song! and i like the other video but i much prefer this one because it seems more personal

  • I like the city and street car sceanes.

  • I like this video.. I was at a party a few hours ago. I didn't enjoy it at all. The music was terrible. Finally I got out my ipod and listened to this until someone picked me up.

  • the guy with the cawl neck body suit in a blue camoflage is soooo cuuute, i wonder what his name is :P

  • @nichya11 its funny i see this, i was thinking this when i was watching the video.

  • I like this but to be honest prefer the other version of the video. :) Love the song still !!

  • Dracula helps with filming?

    Immi has a vampire friend! RaWr

  • I Had My First Kiss To This Blessed Song

  • I prefer this version, the video is more entertaining =] Wish Imogen would promote more in the UK =[

  • so in touch with the abnormal reality in which we all want to dive into but just cant seem to fully get there you have done this imogen heap your so amazing ! inspiring

  • @MrJrockjizzle She is truly awesome.

  • I went to a show of yours on January 14th of 2006 in Philadelphia, PA. That night still plays so clearly in my mind... It snowed after the show and it was just a really beautiful memory for me. I love you! :)

  • Comment removed

  • ever since I heard this live, I decided to refind Imogen and get back into sync with her music :)

    Renewed hope of life over here o.0

  • Immi, is your painting always ajar? ;)

  • I really like this video. Your dress and hair are awesome. :-)

  • ow... thank you... you are coming to Vancouver... kkkkkk... 

  • i love this video! please direct more videos! The other video is good, but this one is so beautiful!!

  • I can relate to this song. I remember when I went to a party and everyone was having a great time - dancing, drinking. But I just couldn't enjoy it at all. And the worst part was, I was miles away from home. I wished I could just be in my bedroom, dancing to Imogen instead of the music they played at the party.

  • Every time it's better and better come to Tucson not everyone is nuts here.

  • I love IH !!!!

  • 2:42-3:04

    Is the best I think!!

  • Thank you, Immi, for existing.

  • I prefer this video, beautifully done.

  • I like her face that she makes at 1:18. She described in an interview that the song is based off of her going to a house party and not being thrilled to be there, waiting for the train to hit town so she could get out. That face totally expresses that haha

  • amazing video. I love your music. You remind me of my best friend, and I think that is what I like about you the most, that you are human.

  • Interesting debate going on.

    I just have to say i prefer THIS video.

    (And, i wouldnt leave immi on the floor...)

    (Jennie you're a great dancer)

  • love it!

  • The official is certainly better...this one does convey the story in a more straight forward fashion, but the quality of the video as a whole isn't great. I did really like the last thirty seconds of this one though..the bit where she faded out and fell into the crowd was cool.

  • The official is certainly better...this one does convey the story in a more straight forward fashion, but the quality of the video as a whole isn't great. I did really like the last thirty seconds of this one though..the bit where she faded out and fell into the crowd was cool.

  • @NevanImranTheCambion

    Respectfully disagree. While the official video seems better in cinematic terms, this expresses Heap's style and intent more clearly I think that some malleable director did a marketing director's bidding by putting her in that ludicrous outfit, and having her race in a hamster cage, and that she did it out of her good will and desire to see her career go on. Thhis 'Party' version is far closer to the Imogen Heap we know from her blogs

    It's warm and personal.

  • @ArkadyRenkovich I understand the warm and personal deal, but I think the official is absolutely in immi's usual style, quite reminiscent of headlock, and hey I like her oufit! and her hair..twas nice curly. lol

  • It's the real film of this song,

    Unlike the other, this one makes sense.

    Its brilliantly immanent.

    And I may not mean so much brilliance, though it is there, but Genius Locii, the spirit of place...and the way in which it may move us.

    Imogen Heap is a grace upon us.

  • Awwe, i wouldn't leave poor Immi on the floor!

    LoL

  • i love this version....dunno why :)

  • This is way cool, I love your music, thanks for making this video and sharing why and who!  Awesome!

  • I sure I've heard it before in Headlock or something. Maybe it just sounded like 'Echo Game'

  • I love the fact that she is clearly disconected by the lights not flashing on her. =)

    ps I think she kinda looks like Alanis Morrisette.

  • This is so much better than the big-budget video. It has so much more soul.

  • Love both of the videos. <3

  • I like it :D

  • I love this video! I like the first one, too, but it's too... Flashy. Yeah.

    Also, Imogen, your friends look like they had a blast with this!

    Lovely, as always. C:

  • Nice one imogen,great music lol Adrian

  • Comment removed

  • LOVE 1:11 ..ha <3

  • does she say "echo game" in most of her songs or is that just me?

  • Wow... you are so amazing and an inspiration to me.

    thank you... from one tall girl to another :)

    Noie

  • this is song should be in kingdom of heaven i love this song imogenheap love it.

  • Wow! Immi is tall! 6 feet / 183 cm...supermodel height =]

  • WAAAAAYYY Better! Shows that no one can create what's in your head. ;)

  • lol! this is a fun video and I can enjoy both it and official video in different ways. partyings are good! enjoyed virtually sharing yours + friends'. Cheers.

  • when the moonlight

    love the fly of the earth..

    you see your step-WAY..

  • hallo-teste-love your Music..

  • i prefer this video than the official one =)

  • Great! I love her music and this video is a nice presentation. Hope she makes many albums in the future!

  • Proof that beauty is in the voice,the creativity,the vocal,the lyrics,thats all that I need to be a huge fan...

  • This is so much better than the original video! I'm buying your album today. Great Job!

  • oh immi, this is so fabulous :D <3

  • Imogen = genious!

  • We cover Hide and Seek, let us know what you think!

  • @officialtf3 I liked your guys' string cover of 'Hide and Seek'. Very nice, but maybe this is not the place to look for recognition. Some might deem it spam. But still, awesome cover. As for the video, I like it! Maybe a little more than the first version. It's just her feet look so much brighter. Maybe just bad lighting against the green screen. Interesting concept, and solid execution. Go Imogen! :D

  • that bridge is pure ear candy

  • Fascinating.

  • I absolutely love Imogen....always have.

    This video is definitely better than the "official" one......great work immi.

  • Yes, I like this video better, It's much more atractive and modern tahn the other.

  • THIS VIEO IS WAYYYY BETHER O_O

  • I like this video more than official one.

  • I think the video is really good.. I love the lyrics btw.

  • When are you coming to Dubai,

    from a fellow Brit x

  • Cool13q.

    I think the Party Version is about whats going on in the video. Not the music itself.

  • i love your music don't get me wrong.

    but how is this a "party version"

  • There's a party in the video.

  • ah that would make sense, thanx

  • More parties whould have you dress up like Narnians. Hmmm. Anyone think Imogen Heap could do a good voice or actress to fill the role of a Dyrad or Nyrad or something in a Narnian movie?

  • Immi, you bring love to my soul, brilliant. Such emotion in your words and actions. Truly fantastic. I heart you.

  • beautiful song, great vid! :D your song never fails to transport me to a higher plane :D  amazing! :-*

  • Only saw this version now and like it more than the original... it just suits it IMO. :)

  • Love ya Immy! you inspire me, make my eyes misty.

    I wish hat I reach the class you're in with my music someday :)

  • I really like this video, and the element or style behind it...I just love your style of music. Keep it coming!

  • Oh, I just noticed how she references "The Hideaway" in this song!

  • So cute, it was funny watching this!

  • i like this better then the normal version :)

  • please don't tell you've allowed all these hack artists to use your music. you're like the female version of mike patton, i have so much respect for your artist talent. any artists that uses an electrix repeater and a monome 256 has my absolute respect.

  • I love it Imogen<3

  • How did I not see this sooner? The only word I can use to describe the video is charming. Thanks for all these gifts Immi. It's too bad more artists cant be as personable as you.  You rock!

  • *o*

    ♥ / French fan / ♥

  • i loved the guy with the bear head!!! Oh and the endging with immi letting herself fall.

    Awesome

  • very cool

  • This is great video, IMO better then official :) And You wrote beautiful music on Your last LP. I'm so glad I can buy it in Poland (and so I did) :)

  • I LOVE YOU MARRY ME

  • i'd marry her and i'm gay. ;)

  • me too mate. me too.

  • immi, if i wasn't a chick, i'd ask you to marry me

  • LMAO the goat thing in the back made me laugh so hard

  • Wow reat... Itw as very good that i found taht today, cause its exactly the way i felt last night

  • I LOVE this video. It's so amazing. I, myself, would love to see Imogen Heap and Regina Spektor do a song together. I think it would be like...putting 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom together. :P

  • i love it, i make more sense then the first one it was amazing... but then again almost anything that comes out your brain is amazing<3 <3

  • Perfect!!!

    I loved!!!

  • I prefer this video for this song.

    Awesome song :)

  • Imogen i love your music! Been listening since Garden State back in the day. I do like this version better than the other though both are good! This is more the imogen style i love!

  • Love this version - released on my birthday - that was thoughtful - ;-)

  • hi... do you know what beautiful that these you admire... i like your music but not know very well what it says do not speak english speaking spanish... please come to mexico... if you are not understand is that use traslator of the network.. i love you

  • How did I miss this?! <3!

  • If her, Sade, Dido, and Enya did a quartet, I'd die a happy man... I swear I would... The world could end and I'd welcome it, only after this has been done!

  • I love this video, it very different and the song is lovely as heck. I wish I could be in Dallas when you stop by, but I am stuck in good old Arkansas. In a town of 700! I was city gal, but I rather like being country! lol

  • I'm extremely fond of the ending in this video. It so clearly makes your point of feeling alone and trapped while around well-meaning people.

    Your work continues to be nothing short of amazing. It's wonderfully refreshing :)

    During your tour, you will be performing in Montreal when I go home to Long Island, and will be performing in New York City after I've gone back up to Burlington, VT. This is extremely aggravating!

  • I like this video better than the other one. The way you sang it here is more touching. I can't wait to buy the album. :)

  • I love this one. My favorite, of the two. The guy in the blue/black-spotted suit is so cute.

  • wow, i love both videos, and it's wonderful that you incorporated so many persons who support you in different ways in this video.....looking forward to more from you! thanks so much imogen ^_^

  • Love it Immy - hope you're feeling better now.

  • Oh I like this music video better than the other one! It worked out really well!!!

  • A very talented artist. She has an Etherial voice that sings like a beautiful bird

  • loved it - like everything you do - it was wonderful

  • LOL the goat in the back xD i think this is my favorite single...(I hope bad body double is up next!!!)

  • .... speakless, as always. i love your records, i listen to them all the time.

  • Such a good film clip and an awesome concept. Loved the blonde chick dancing in fast motion. You rule Imogen.

  • Good thing you went to that party you didn't want to be at

    The irony of being a songwriter

  • love it immi

    great shoot-in-a-day concept!

    lots of life

    and so fitting

    GREAT SONG!

  • made me laugh when the people stated to do the same dance :D love this

  • wow! I like both of your videos. but this one feels even better. I guess the ambient/environment is more out there. Really nice! I love the effects!!!!

  • oh you look so sexy in this version, lovely colors and pretty delicate arms haha. cute.

  • i really like the more obvious contrast this video draws between the hectical party and the slower-moving immi.. like being out of sync with the party, not the right timing~

    also i really like thats its pretty personal

    (although the other video had kinda cool ideas and effects~ but is that what counts?)

  • divine

  • all i can say is that this is amazing...

  • This one suits you better. Color, nice people, lot´s of good vibes, it´s a very sweet video.

    Congrats for it!

    :-)

  • i like this one SOOOOO much better than the "official one"

    I HEART YOU IMOGEN! :D

    *btw, your friends rock! :D*

  • yeap I agree with the comments... I like this video a lot... sound's good, classy, so nice... great song!

  • I prefer this one as well! Much better than the official vid. You go, girl! =D

  • I have to say I prefer this one as well!

  • This really does fit the song better!! <3 u immi!!

  • I love the richness of the colours

  • This is a lot better than the official video :)

  • Ok, you're right, this video won't win any awards but I like it anyway! Having said that, you could wear a brown bag and stand against a white wall and I'd still say it was a great video. For the record, I think the original video is excellent and possibly captures the emotional sentiment behind the track more so than the new version. Critics are often wrong though!

  • I like this video SO much better than the "official" one...it's simple, but it fits the song so much better.

  • Fabyyylus

    the Laird and I eagerly await the UK tour dates.

  • I like this version better

    <3

  • This is so much better than the official video, in my opinion :) I feel like this at most parties I have been to, which I why I refuse invites these days! Musicians, eh? ;)

  • ... for all those parties where we just wanted to fly far away

    hmph... happened so many times, wish i had

  • I love you Immy!

  • How uncool are the people in the background doing the train dance xD

  • This is an amzing new video for First Train Home..Love you Immi......Hope we'll met someday!!!>....Can't stop listening to ur music!!

  • SUEINCORN

  • I love it

    i love Imogen

    i have her album ;)

    Its soo cool

    I like Aha!

    I'm just a taadd obsessed....

    :L

    xxx

  • This version is simple but AWESOME!!!

  • Yup, prefer this video, much more fun to watch. Enjoyable.

  • Sheep girl is my fav!

  • I would've loved to be in this party with Immi :(

    -.-

    And so many times I would have sung this song in various parties I went when I was back in college hehe

  • SUENICORN!

  • I love Immi's WTF look at 1:18! I think this is a better version, to be honest. At least, I like it better. I think it conveys the lyrics and the elements in the arrangement a lot better, as well as slipping in some clever film effects. Much more like a party you can't wait to leave!

  • the giant bear head is hilarious.. i like this a lot though :D. the official video wasn't so good in my opinion, but i like this

  • I really liked the video. A very simple idea yet very clever too.

  • this could work really well if mixed cleverly with the other video - like the party is the reality but in Immis mind she's running and running through the spinning picture machine.

    Can some cleverclogs please do this? :)

  • Yes, calling all cleverclogs-es. Give us Immi video mashups!

  • Excellent idea to mix both videos!!! :D

  • I prefer this video! It's really cool. :)

  • I can see a Suenicornnn...;)

  • hehe i like the end... lol

  • 1:12 was pretty random.
