I came here to appreciate the original version after hearing the Mt eden remix. The music in mt eden (much like other EDM) uses sampled vocals as an extension of the instrumentals (and lose much of the lyrics). Which is better is a matter of opinion...
xD This song reminds me of The Adjustment Bureau. No- The Adjustment Bureau reminds me of this song. I've loved Imogen for a very long time, and nothing compares... <3
This is an amazing song. Don't get me wrong, I like Mt Eden's version alot too, but it's just sad how everyone listens that song and hasn't even heard the original.
This song reminds me of the my friend who met someone while she was still married. She looked like she was gonna lose it whenever he would come around and she could never seem to concentrate on the conversation at hand. When I asked her later "what's wrong-you just kept saying Yeah" She laughed and said that "he makes me nervous like he could see through me"....
The original is better than the Mt. Eden version. If I wanted to hear incoherent vocals, I'd record a voice, and play it through a rotating fan...Nice attempt, can appreciate the instruments. But the lack of appropriate vocals, and the fact that the vocals are annoyingly irritating kill the song for me.
Have you ever gone thru something and think that it can only happen to you? Then someone comes along and writes a song that mirrors what you've been going thru...
tis worthy of the more stuff i like playlist so GET IN DER! OTHER VIDS IN DER YOU BETTA BE A MAKING SOME MORE ROOM FOR YO MASSA YESSIRRE YOU BETTA! and..... owned
@13moredays No worries. Only a selected few can actually sit and understand music. Haha, its not your fault. The song is about a man and a woman who are good friends and are slowly getting into a relationship.
i love how wide her vocal range is! its incredible! like if u listen to hide and seek u can really tell b/c she sings some pretty low notes and then theres a SUPER high note! it amazing! her and regina spektor are my idols!
It's about being tempted to go into a relationship not meant to happen. Or falling for someone you weren't supposed to fall for. That's really funny, because I've known this song for years and I've never thought it was referring to a homosexual relationship and now I can see where you guys are coming from..
Mr. Imogen Heap (a.k.a. Lloyd Bartlett of Kingston on the Thames) has a wife and 2 children. Before beginning his pop career he impersonated, on the London club circuit, Cher, lesbian Madonna, Debby Harry, Sheryl Crow and Tina Turner.
@FinallyTheNight wow, surprising how you were able to pull all that out of your ass so casually. I wonder if you could keep a straight face while spewing such bullshit in real life of if your trolling is limited to the internet where your face is hidden behind a computer monitor
Thiis is liike my getting ready to go out song. iim thiinkiin of "hiim" but ii juss know that iits a BADD situation in the miix...iiits so temptiing to want that raiiny day to hurry up and come. Sumtiimes ii almost wanna do the raiin dance.
OMG I LOVE THIS SONG iTS LIKE the first level of getting a crush on someone who gives you the wrong signals boys do it all the time lol but ahhhh so beautyful is the way it came out
well when i hear this song it makes me think of like someone with a drug addiction that is trying to stop but just cant like the line " i feel a weakness coming on" makes me think of that lol or of like a vampire trying not to eat a person i hope that helped
I feel the same way about the vampire thing and sooo not about that edward scrap from twilight I mean someone who is a real, not a gay ass sparkling vampire but a real fang having pretty boy like kaname or zero from vampire knight
I love how she puts situations of love in an emergency context, she has a few songs like this, I just think that's interesting. Those usually end up being my favorite.
"Hide and seek" was the first song of immy i heard. and i thought: oh gosh, what a crap. later on i heard "the walk" and from then on, i was always saying: Imogen heap is the creator of the greatest and horriblest songs i ever heard.
by now i love Hide and Seek and most of her other stuff too... but if i never heard "the walk" i would never really known imogen heap... She is just sooo great!!!!
i juss love the pick up in this song...."Alright then, i could keep your number 4 a rainy day"......like am i the only 1 goin thru that right now........and the beat to this song is juss slammin.....
@marcosEstrello I really would agree because I have the lyrics and the CD, but anyway I really studied the lyrics after I read what you said and I noticed you were right
i actually think she says " 'cause you and i weren't meant to me' " even thought it is grammatically incorrect it sound more right and better to the story =)
It does kinda sound like Bill Kaulitz...at certain times in the song but I know shes a girl thats quite obvious :)
