Imogen Heap - Half Life

[RHCPKK]

she absolutely gorgeous, voice is really soft and pretty as well

[XBigLevX]

"..compressed tight to explode..." beautiful...

[TheOracle1814]

I FIRST HEARD THIS SONG WHEN I MOVED OUT OF MY PARENTS HOME WHEN I WAS AT MY FIRST JOB AROUND THE MOST BITTER COLD HELLISH WINTERS OF 2009 IN DENVER. HEARING THIS SONG NOW, IT STILL GIVES AN EMOTIONAL EMPOWERMENT FOR ME.

[SpanishJoker4]

this is crazy for a 240p vid imagine her audio in 1080p!!!!! she'd evolve speakers, but we'd press b like ash lol

[NoBluntsTrick]

@SpanishJoker4 thumbs up for the pokemon joke.

[nicholle7712]

...This is just.. wow.

[stephx3nicole]

this song is written soo well, never had a song relate to me so much.

[blackanimechick16]

I hink this will be my next dancing song. :)

[blackanimechick16]

@blackanimechick16 *think

[VAMPIREGIRL0121]

She has an amazing vioce, wish she would come back and make more songs.

[HeartSociety]

@VAMPIREGIRL0121 She has a recent one that juss came out called - Minds Without Fear. . . Its a collaboration ...

[TheBridgeeee]

I dont know if I believe in angels, but everytime I listen to her I feel like this is what they sound like.. I LOVE HER.

[Ollieshini]

My self worth measured in text-back tempo,

it's been two days and eight minutes too slow . . .

Don't we all feel that way every now and again? Brilliant line.

[dagalacticinvaders]

SHE'S A BLOODY WOMAN!

[dardhus]

@dagalacticinvaders She is a Dragonborn and she can kill with her voice!

[Marissafication]

this reminds me of mirror mask :D

[x3JenniePoo]

SHE IS FROU FROU?!?!?! damn. I love her even more now.

[JiangWei23]

My girlfriend of four years is spending the year teaching English in Korea, and this song is one of the few things that can keep me going sometimes. Everything about this is just so perfect and beautiful and sad that every time I listen to this I'm either wildly hopeful or crushingly depressed.

I knew that I'd get like this again...

[chloealyssamei]

I used to think this song was about Cancer. Can mean so many different things, really beautiful

[interestingliz]

@thegreathistorian7

thanks?

[thegreathistorian7]

I'll stay with you Laura, I know you gotta go away again, but you stick at your degree, don't slow down, I don't mind coming second, I'll keep buying my train tickets to see you, I'll be behind you every step of the way. Just don't disappear in a puff of smoke.

[spawnofcupcakes]

@thegreathistorian7 This is a beautiful comment, and I hope she realizes how lucky she is to have you.

[skdjhfkdhfa]

...and she's a mormon.

(lol @ related videos not being related).

[FamilyofSupernatural]

@skdjhfkdhfa asdhkajsdjkah wait she is?!

[Firepop4]

another dream song... i have a playlist for my dreams :)

[Astralrainbow]

wow.

[mychemtears]

Im planning on creating a ballet to this song.

[StarSancFar]

Angels have this song on their heavenly iPod's :)

What a beautiful song! x

[oddlysplendidaudrey]

I know only three musicians that have such an beautiful and earthy voice. Florence Welch, Enya Brennan, and Imogen Heap.

[StarSancFar]

@oddlysplendidaudrey I knew Florence, I knew Enya, but I did NOT know Imogen....my question...why not?? :O

[oddlysplendidaudrey]

@StarSancFar I'm sorry what?

[StarSancFar]

@oddlysplendidaudrey I've heard of Florence and Enya but I didn't know about Imogen lol I'm shocked that I didn't seeing as how she has a lovely voice :P

[Kordar09]

@oddlysplendidaudrey Have you ever heard of Loreena Mckennitt? She has a wonderful earthy voice as well. She's also a great musician, more folk-based than this. Some of her songs are music set to poetry.

Dolores O'Riordan of The Cranberries has a very interesting voice too, well worth a listen.

[Tawnyshine]

... this song shut my 9 year old nephew, 6 year old niece and 5 year old nephew up long enough for them to fall asleep.

Just proves how epic this song, this album, IMOGEN....

All how epic they are. <3

[Kristenslist]

I can't help but wonder if this is about Jeff Goldblum. I've had a crush on him since I was a kid, but I think the best thing that came from my crush on him was finding out about Imogen Heap. :)

[CatFlashBlue]

My younger cousin- he's five years old- he gets Imogen confused with Enya.

And I wonder... is this such a bad thing?

[DSKJr18]

This song... Damn it, can't say anything. This is a piece of what heaven could sound like.

[SenoritaTJ]

Her voice is so sweet

[fatalfront]

i love this song.

[7Leeshy]

This song got me through a really difficult relationship with my ex boyfriend. This is the only song, ever, that has made me cry. I'm a dude.

I really love this song.

[RebeccaGladue]

this song makes me cry...so beautiful..even tho my life isnt so good right now..i know there is unique, touching music out there....passing the time..thinking...

[nitsuj0007]

It's funny when listening to this song on my Slacker account, how it somehow cuts out the vocals (and I believe the piano part too). The resulting song might not be as great, but it's still awesome and still makes me smile. I hope someone that knows how to separate the piano and vocals could post that version on YouTube. :)

[retry64ever]

Where is my zero gravity gun

[giddymorose]

To me this feels like a perfect antithesis to Heapsong#2 (Propeller Seeds). This song is so achingly melancholy whereas her new one is beautifully positive. From a half life to a a full one.

Imogen can stir up so many emotions with her powerful voice. Really incredible.

[amandamaya123]

This reminds me of the game, lol

Love Imogen Heap, seeing her live was a life experience! :)

[skypaw929]

How can anyone dislike this song... her voice is to lovable and pure :c

[FrozenFairieWings]

what do you think this songs about?

am i the only one who hears football references? do you think she was dating a quaterback or somethin?

[ZutaraEra]

@FrozenFairieWings Could be, but maybe youre taking it a bit too literally. But hey, songs are meant to be interpreted and no one has to interpret them in the same way (:

[ZutaraEra]

@FrozenFairieWings Oh, and by the way, I feel like this song is about how she fell for a guy who let her fall. He never said that he'd love her, or do anything for her. She liked him a lot and she's saying how she thinks about him and how even though he's moved on she still imagines him coming back for her. At the end she says how he'll never be lonely, and how he didnt and still doesnt care about how she fell so hard for him. My opinion (:

[cloudld]

I'm a blind, deaf and dumb quadriplegic and I love this song so much!

[lalalaurel123]

@cloudld hey now. you actaully used proper grammar and spelling unlike 90% of these comments. including mine. you are not dumb.

[Laurel5544]

@lalalaurel123 You name makes me happy. :) Off the subject I know.

[lalalaurel123]

@Laurel5544 yay! youre name makes me happy tooooo!!!!!! :)

[Laurel5544]

@lalalaurel123 :D

[Harrysuperior]

Makes me wonder... She has so many songs about love, feels like all of them really... Were here songs based on experiance....?

[dontgiveafuhhh]

Amazing. This is just so beautiful that I have no words to describe how her voice just fills the room with such a serene and peaceful enviornment.

[interestingliz]

Her voice is so sweet and pure, like the last drop of honey in a jar.

[thegreathistorian7]

@interestingliz different.

[interestingliz]

@thegreathistorian7

thanks? ....

[interestingliz]

@thegreathistorian7

thanks? ....

[interestingliz]

@thegreathistorian7

...thanks?

[starrock779]

@interestingliz

Oh I thought it was a guy... O_e

[interestingliz]

@starrock779

How on earth can you think that? SHE is beautiful.

[Davison94]

@interestingliz I imagine the last drop would be full of crumbs and stuff.

[KnightChrome50]

I am dude. I love this!!

[jewelofpeace1978]

So true and so sad...

[jaylefevre1]

you'd think you would stop listening to a song after it makes you cry so many times. oh no.... not this one

[thearsday70]

this touches me like in the heart also half life /\ it reminds me of my life

[thearsday70]

@thearsday70 chicken to you dummy then what happened



[thearsday70]

the orange box /\

[RBkidd510]

λHalf Lifeλ

[machihuahua]

Ohh my god. I started bawling listening to this....all of it..every word....my life. My current prediciment. Oh my god. So many emotions. I love Imogen Heap, sooooooo much. ♥

[ViperFaceChallenge]

My god I came onto this song by searching the video game half life and I play piano as well totally going to learn this one it's a beauty!

[allforjesus24]

how ironic that I'm doing my science homework and its talking about the "half life of elements." hahaha :P

[nozeca]

Uma das mais bonitas músicas dela!

[Ezldor]

this is what Gordon freeman listens too while killing headcrabs

[tinyvirus91]

I'm obsessed

[SoulReaperVampire]

This perfectly describes my relationship right now....

[TheSushiMadness]

This song makes me want to throw up. Not because it's bad. No, it's one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. It's just that the pure, throbbing emotions it brings out in me make me feel sick, like I'm going to break from the longing in her words...

I love you, Imogen.

[H4z4rdTw15t]

Vomitting love? ^-^

@TheSushiMadness

[PositiveLastAction]

@TheSushiMadness interesting comment, but I know what you are trying to say. This song is immensely beautiful...and for me things start to get heavenly at the 2:15 mark.....chills!

[lalalaurel123]

@TheSushiMadness OMG. i thought i was the only one who got that throw up feeling. Good to know im not. :)

[tastic88]

@TheSushiMadness what the fuck

[KetchupSplodge]

@tastic88 shut up. He/She is allowed to feel emotional about a song.

[xXXLforeverXXx]

This song makes me forget about everything else and daydream.... For instance, I was laying in complete darkness trying to sleep, (I'm an insomniac) and when I listen to this song, it makes me completely relax and almost fall asleep. :3

[ChazZeromus]

Half Life....Compress to explode... I'm gonna be silly and say those are references to the Teller-Ulam design of two stage thermonuclear weapons. Or just a emotionally meaningful song.

[leodegrance]

this song reminds me of Gordon Freeman... :-)

[roxierivertyn16]

this song, makes me daydream, and forget all about reality, like I'm in a different world entirely <3

[emoth100]

I absolutly adore this song I love all the diferent instruments that are used to make it sound so amazing ;D

[61892jb]

2:10 reminds me of Enya, only better. I need a song with more of that sound.

[Mellogurl17]

i love this song! so much, Imogen Heap has a gorgeous voice and a beautiful outlook on life. she is amazing.

[JorgeRawlings]

Does anyone know where one can get the cd, coz at the moment i'm downloading each track of youtube, and its taking ages.

[deathmastar0]

@JorgeRawlings A library maybe?

[manluzmon]

@JorgeRawlings I downloaded it from Taringa! though it is for people who talk spanish...

Hope you can download it anyways! ; D

[supermunyi]

thank you lil b based world

[CottonSkelCandy]

sie ist so wunderbar :']

Imogen voice beautiful ♥

[wickedharmony1717]

and peaceful<33333333333

[wickedharmony1717]

XD<333 So beautiful.

[itirnitii]

makes me cry every time :(

[kaylahjames]

@itirnitii i know. she's so breathtakinggg <3 

[iialphawolfii]

I consider this song Ellipse's version of The Moment I Said It <3

[ValeBallerina97]

*-* Really Beautiful!

[FlourMelisProduction]

This is the best song they've evar made ;D

[CaletheMrActor]

It seems that 7 people are having problems with their computer's mouse.

[redhot654]

People go on about wanting dislikes on facebook, and then complain about it on youtube. The 5 stars are gone because most people would rate something they liked 5 stars and anything else 1 star,

[anorangejuice]

This song is really beautiful!

[KatCrap]

This song is seriously under-rated. Her voice is the sound of heartbreak.

[Homeswizl123]

this IS who Imogen Heap is.

[joeporn666]

i start listening to imogen heap for this song

(valve's videogame half life) XD

[polishedVOGUE]

This song felt longer than 3:45 minutes. It was such a dream to listen.

[steelyman08]

Once the meaning of this song hits home. . . WOW! What a way to express such a yearning. Her vocals in this song could melt any solid ~ no matter how highly it rated its own impermeability ;-)

[steelyman08]

Just when I'd given up on ever hearing another original & super-talented artist. . . .

WOW! That voice ~ there's sensitivity, intelligence, grace, subtlety, stunning beauty, and god knows what else contained therein.

Thanks (-:

[kubaw1000]

piękna piosenka..

[piercedxpunkette]

I LOVE this song. I love Imogen. I really like it when it turns into that indian sounding music in the back. So great!

[NateBirach]

6 people live a quarter life :/

[urquhart63]

Pure Bliss

[MyOhNoes]

we're learning about half life in science class LMAO 

[elinesweet5]

how can a song be so beautiful?:'D

[nicolecater]

I get it.

[abbyarose2]

This song reminds me of happy memories, they seem so long ago now...

[redhot654]

Too beautiful for words, any music that can make me feel this much is beautiful music. Magic.

[biddy96]

this song actually feels like someone is hugging me

[RanulfMuir]

My neck was broken when I was nineteen, today I'm 53... it's hard... I'm paralyzed and wheelchair bound and totally alone... somehow this song while bringing tears to my eyes makes me go on

[Megaultraawesome99]

@RanulfMuir may god be with you :)

[RanulfMuir]

@Megaultraawesome99 Thank You

[utscuba]

@RanulfMuir Everything will be okay. I'll pray for you. This song is beautiful.

[YtongT]

@RanulfMuir umm... if you're paralyzed how in the hells did you type that comment?

[VyOblivious]

@YtongT Partial paralysis. Being paralyzed doesn't always mean complete paralysis

[zafartareen]

@RanulfMuir Im sorry, i have no idea how that feels. Don't know you, but i just thought about "you" in that situation, want you to know that you're not all alone, some random guy over the internet thinks about you and wishes that time will ease your pain, take care.

[TheDashingRor]

@RanulfMuir You are not alone!! We feel for you. We can't feel what you have felt and continue to feel, but we feel -for- you.

[wordzthatrock]

@RanulfMuir bet you're an inspiration to more people than you realize. Sending happy thoughts your way : )

[khazzan123]

@RanulfMuir if your paralyzed, how did you type that?

[RanulfMuir]

@khazzan123 I'm not complete. AlI of us are classified at different levels or degree's of disability. Google ASIA tetraplegia class C, That's what I am. I also have a immune system disorder called CIDP, my antibodies are eating the sheating off my nerves. I can type with both forefingers. I can move my legs and arms though there's no feeling.

[RanulfMuir]

@RanulfMuir I don't know how I got any down votes, however, I'm a fullfilled individual... Life is difficult for most everyone, handdicapped or not! It's all about the lives you touch on your way through this illusion of time and space..Love and Light to all.

[BanetheWolfofGaia]

@RanulfMuir ...If you're paralyzed from the neck down, then how the fuck did you type that?

[KillerDownload]

@BanetheWolfofGaia you can be paralyzed from the waist down from a neck injury. RanulfMuir didnt say it was from the neck down.

[Absolite1232]

@RanulfMuir Hahahaha.

[Megaultraawesome99]

imogen heap is the most talented singer ive ever heard....her singing is simply beautiful!!!! she embraces everything good in me,and her fantastical music brings me to a glorious dreamland i havent been to in a while..... imogen heap,your amazing....thats all :)

[Judes6647]

She wrote a song with the same name as my faviroute video game series. I love this woman for more reasons then just her music now. 

[11MrBrightside]

Her music is so beautiful that there is no possible way I can concentrate on my homework. I just keep putting down my pen and listening. God, I love Immi so Much!!

[MyOhNoes]

@11MrBrightside really? i think this song is great for homework, it keeps me calm and focused!

[epm1019]

i did a dance to this, oh man many bruises.

[MrAuugu]

I want to click Like 100 times D:

[RossHildick3D]

Everyone's thinking it.... Orange box.

[smaugus99]

It is impossible to listen to this song or any Imogen heap+frou frou song with out thinking about memories in your life or just spacing out and forgetting about the world.i really admire Imogen and how she can keep her head held high even when people are very harsh i hope Imogen's singing life goes on for years to come this is to Imogen your amazing :) <3

[whatsinmadrid]

[PositiveLastAction]

Brilliant! I believe this song should be considered as one of her very best....mesmerizing, ethereal, beautiful, atmospheric....and quite simply.....incandescent!

[kateiwob]

@PositiveLastAction so many adjectives. i like.

[Superduck779]

@kateiwob Woops. I didn't mean to vote your comment down. :O

[xAyameHimeX]

lovely

[LMAOlizz]

I'm thinking that Ellipse is the best album she's released, yet.

I can just relate to every song that's on it.

Not to mention, they're all so meaningful and beautiful <3

[dwelling2k6]

I can never listen to this song just once. It's like a bag of chips! Amazing.

[skateboardkid]

repeat 1 and repeat all need to added to this videos LOVE IT!!

[XSubachuX]

My God, how does she do this.

How does she do this...

Every song she's created... moves so deeply.

[MonkeyOfGG]

367:6 likes:dislikes. You do the math.

Now, go look at Justin Bieber's "Baby". Check out the likes:dislikes ratio.

That in and of itself proves Imogen has worlds of talent.

[Megaultraawesome99]

@MonkeyOfGG lol theres been exactly 100 more likes,im about to like it AGAIN,and still 6 dislikes... :D

[MlleJubi]

J'aime, j'aime trop ='D

[bisousxo]

Complete and utter euphoria.

[MidnaLoveLinkforever]

Almost every time I hear this song, I cry a little bit. And I rarely cry.

:') Only Imogen.

[furrycrittr]

this song makes me so happy.
