"when you fuck up on stage make sure you walk away with more than a fuck up, a new perspective, some advice, or at least a funny story, look beyond the clouds and see the bright side of things in such cases."
ive been in front of some big audiances with school bands before, its never easy doing it group or solo much less televized and such, and trust me ive had my screw ups in front of people and fellow band members but i walked away with more than a fuck up i walked away with a little advice and an ability to say ive been there and done that, not fun at the time but you get a story at the least and i walked away with one or rather a few of them too. to musicians, quoth the bassboy ...
The clothes r her style, who cares, she looks great. Shes not hiding from n e thing. Shes been playing, writing, & studying music since she was like 5 yrs old. She also has a degree in audio engineering. The "gadgets" are what allow her to be a one person band which takes a lot of thought, prep & precision in execution. Timing is a major factor its not just pushing buttons. I think shes a very talented & beautiful person and we're lucky to have her music. Bjork is cool 2 but doesn't even compare
Amazing and mind blowing as usual, like Frou Frou, but we need the new vid (Letterman)...again, bringing the studio to us...I felt a real experience that is you and you alone, speechless....
well there was the one that was on the album and then there was the one that was in the official music video... so which one do you mean by the "radio edit"? Just curious :)
I mean the music video and single version. The radio edits of both this song and headlock are both remixed to sound more like the live performances. Imogen said this herself.
A few mentioned she was nervous. I'm sure I would be terrified solo when your not surrounded by other musicians to hold it together. I think she pulled it off amazingly well with a huge task where anything technically can go wrong to make it worse.
I felt bad watching this, well bad for her :( She really did seem nervous, and off. Maybe cause she was singing to a US crowd, where she wasn't as well established as in the UK
Lol yeah, poor Immie. She started sounded a lot better toward the end. xD Her music is so different, I love that she does live on her own, but it probably does give a lot of nervousness to her xD
i couldnt tell she was nervous but now tht ppl say it...she was kinda...well i lov this song and her!!!! i think she sounds better in her song song than live...but she ROX!!!
you guys are obviously not true fans. she did an amazing job. her voice and her song writing is truly amazing. i am in complete awe watching her do all of that herself.
actually I am very impressed of her performance, she handled the computer, the piano and that other thing very fine AND her voice worked. But the first minute was painful, to bad that it ruins it a bit.
I for one think she did excellent. Sure, there were a few mess-ups, but I mean, how many of YOU could do that good on national television with a million people watching you? I for one would've broken down sobbing before i even got into the building. Never would have been able to perform an entire song, let alone that well, and i doubt any of you would have been able to, either. Immi rules. ;)
I don't know much about her but the SNL sketch got me curious. Seems like she's got a lot of fans. I'll have to take your word for it that she's special because this song and performance is medicore at best. Gotta' let it rip on national TV...and she didn't.
