Yeah, I can still remember that moment. I put my ear to the laptop and I was like 'what the hell is that?! It sounds like a fire! Let me just pause the.... oh.'
never before have i heard something so opposite at the same time. the crackling fire gives a warm feeling, but the sharp piano notes make it sound so chilling.
when the fire starts crackling, u can practically smell it smouldering and feel its heat. and then the piano adds a calming contrast, like sitting in front of a lit fireplace and listening/playing.
@massymoox: OMG! im so glad to have found this from u! UGH! I WAS LOOKIN FOR IT ALL DAY! AND CAN U BELIEVE IT, i didnt even THINK about youtube! ha! U MADE MY DAY! yes!
@massymoox: OMG! im so glad to have found this from u! UGH! I WAS LOOKIN FOR IT ALL DAY! AND CAN BELIEVE IT, i didnt even THINK about youtube! ha! U MADE MY DAY! yes!
i won't lie, when i no vocals were coming in i was little disappointed but then when the piano picked up, i figured out it was unnecessary for vocals to be in the song. That's probably the most beautiful piano piece ever!
Imogen prooves that it isn't just her voice that has us captivated and amazed. This piano piece is so beautiful and moving. I love Imogen more and more each new song I hear. Thanks for uploading :D
It's weird.. i was listening to this, completely in a trance, and when it ended i realized there were tears rolling down my face. absolutely beautiful
Nah, they need Uematsu... even though for XIII, they have a pretty popular American artist singing for the U.S. release.
And Uematsu did like a Detroiter singing Distant Worlds....
But yeah, there's no argument that this song could work for a game. It kinda makes me think of a 'memory' sequence in a game, like from a character's childhood. You know?
LOL. Dude, Imogen Heap is amazing. It's not shitty music. Maybe your music just isn't good enough for record companies, unlike Imogen Heap's. Don't get mad because she's doing amazing and your not. Life sucks, find something else to throw your 'talent' in to.
KH has very up-beat serious music, and Aha! makes me think of the Underworld in number 2. Definitely the picked violins. Sad that I know that without having played the game in a long while hahaha. Corpse Bridge just has that wonderful Danny Elfman piano in it. Gorgeous. Such a shame this song didn't win it's Grammy nomination.
absolutly adore this song as well a her others...i hav a confession tho,,the frst time i listend to her i thot it was a boy.. not in this song tho in hide and seek
@KeaneLuvr It's not rain, well, not in the beginning at least. It's the sound of crackling fire, like some sort of sad scene in a movie after the flames die down.
imogeab heap is a fantastic and talented artist who i as a music major look up too even though i love this song so much i still wish it couldve been like 5 mins long with some heavy lyrics then this song wouldve been groundbreaking i love this cd!!!
omg I agree 100%. She is a beautiful lyricist and singer... but Cumulus has to be one of her best, if not the best. And of course this song is magnificent too!
wow this is so beautiful!

This so cool. All of the piano variations throughout the song represent the
