  • "I'll hang on grab onto your feet, someone else holds tight to my shoelaces when their trouser leg tears, runs & stops at the seam to keep us dangling together til help finds us here... The BEST DAYS OF OUR LIVES are coming right up if we can just get through this one" IMOGEN HEAP IS AMAZING! She has the best concepts... This song makes very optimistic about what the future holds (:

  • I decided to make this the first song I listen to in 2012! HAPPY NEW YEARRRR :D

  • R.I.P Imogen Heap

  • @Cujoman123 She's NOT dead POEOPLE

  • @Cujoman123

    Hmm nope. She's not dead.

  • I want the most beautiful light to wake me up to exciting pillow fights...

  • @JohnnyCyberspace She's ridiculously famous. Also, she won a grammy.

  • @JohnnyCyberspace this is REAL music.

  • Magnificent! <3 Imogen Heap never stops to amaze me

  • Zero Heroes #Squarians

  • frickin beautiful

  • pretty bomb ass band

    

  • @sorrowmisery123 Not a band... just one woman : )

  • just love this song

  • i love the lyrics.. beautiful voice^^

  • Can anyone tell me if it's true that the song was originally made for the soundtrack of the chronicles of narnia: prince caspian?? I heard it wasn't accepted because it was too dark :(

  • @Ayelen013

    It's not, this is written before Prince Caspian, maybe you're thinking about ''Can't take it in'', that one is written for TTWAW, and is one of the OST. :)

  • @EnArgFlippy thanks :)

  • @Ayelen013 that did happen to a song of hers though. if not this one than another one.

  • @Ayelen013 her song 2-1 was originally written for prince caspian I believe but was too dark for the movie so they didn't use it. this one she wrote for the tv show heroes.

  • That little riff at the beginning will always remind me of heroes. Why did they have to cancel that show...

  • @ZeranZeran I agree. Yeah, Heroes was great & I really wish they hadn't cancelled it. :(

  • Music is something the soul alone understands, but can never translate.

  • best "hope against hope" song.... ever....

  • A great song from Immy, and one of my favorite photos of her, she is so beautiful.

  • Damnit, no matter how many Imogen songs I look up and listen to I just CANNOT find one I don't like! This is driving me crazy!

  • Thjs song is what the doctors ordered, really sets you free of the stress.

  • Everyone keeps trying to define what she's talking about in her songs. Just let it be what means the most to you!

  • @EmjayJackman I agree, though, if people really cared to know what the song is about, they can just go to the VEVO channel and listen for themselves, there is an explanation there :)

  • @A1CGhee her VEVO channal won't let me watch this song.

  • I would love to hear this remixed by Milosh.

  • This reminds me of the Facility level on 007 on N64.

    At the start.

  • i got shivers and watery eyes, this is beautiful and inspirational lyrics

  • I have no idea how she creates some of the sounds that she does, she is truly a pioneer and visionary.

  • @RaVe4EvR122

    Right on!! That she is ~ no one even comes close to her in this day & age.

  • so good...but the best song in my opinion is HIDE AND SEEK...wtf? is soooooooo good..my god i love

  • 2:49 - I'll hang on grab on to your FEET! mmm dada deeey. Hang on grab on to your feet mmm dada ohh.....My FAVORITE PART !

  • @HeartSociety it is pretty cool but the final chorus is just unbeatable :D

  • @PitBrawl1 Yeeeeeah, I love the beat changes <3

  • it is really hard not to sing really loud along with this song <3. i have known this music for years now and i don't think i will ever get tired of it

  • This song is so awesome when it starts to finish :(

  • I find it difficult to express how wonderful this music is. It takes me where no other music has. I love every song she has made and more...w/Jeff Beck etc.

  • OMG she's my inspiration!!

  • thumbs up!

  • she puts alot of work/depth into her music. She cares about it. It shows. She's smart, fresh lyrics and beautiful. She's a panda bear.

  • i've wanted to listen to this all day!!

  • If I died RIGHT now. I would be completly happy. Imogen Heap actually makes my head feel better.

  • The beginning was dubstep...greatest Artist ever.

  • she is so talented really no one should be surprised she came this far

  • Pillow fighting excitement <3

  • You go immi!! Haha, you should really see me in my car....Dont care if the president of the united states saw me. I go full out!! Ugh, the beat is juss so0o0....Immi!!

  • She's so sexy B)

  • "sullen,chewed up, sauntered soliloquies" This line is so poetic.

  • i love this song!!!!!

  • After my grandmother died I listened to this over and over.

    Makes me think of a city celebrating it's independence, safety, and freedom from sadness and fear like after they survived something like the joker from Dark Knight. Like with a parade or something.

  • @ACEnBEAKY Same here, When my Grandma died a couple of years back. At her funeral I listened to this also. Immi sure is a wonderful artist-Her voice so calming and soothing yet powerful and gorgeous- you seem as if you are floating or you have no care in the world. But when you listen to her lyrics, for example this one, You can tell the bittersweetness weaved in. It makes you want to cry at the same time smile

    Who knew a singer could pack so much emotion and meaning into songs. such a poet.

  • @AnriSonohara I think it's because she's not been "intellectually softened" by, a lot of America's music being an inch above silliness. She bases her stuff off of actual art more so than the average bear these days. She's pretty unique by todays standards, something that has some of the best of both pop and classic-and something else. Perfect for fantasy or tragedy. When you're used to fake food a homecooked meal with a twist can be breathtaking.

    Sorry about your grandmother.

  • "..the best days of our lives, they're coming right up If we can just get through this one..."

  • The song reminds me of the show "days of our live's", and "General Hospital", my grandmothers (both of mine) have always enjoyed watching those type of shows XD

  • Amaazing song :) Imogen Heap is an amazing artist

  • what album was this on? and what other albums does she have other than ellipse and speak for yourself? :)

  • @lucygirleen

    Imegaphone and (with Guy Sigsworth, as the band Frou Frou) Details. Check them out; they're all amazing! Love Immi.

  • I'm hearing a bit of Vangelis' "Blade Runner" in here...doesn't matter. Great song anyways

  • I really love this song, it makes me happy!

    Imogen really is a good singer! <3

  • What in the world is everyone talking about?!? I, for one, would like to say that this song is absolutely beautiful. I listen to it when I'm lacking in optimisim(:

  • i wanna hear LIGHTS sing this so bad. this is an amazing song.THANKS AMORECUKI FOR POSTING THIS!!!!!!!!

  • @ZeranZeran Age definitely matters in love, which is why you don't see 10 year olds having sex.

    that's where you're not thinking either though. you can to love them. for example, childhood best friends? you can love them all along and not know it. so that's not the case at all.

    another thing, nowadays kids don't have sex because they're inlove. they have sex because everyone else is doing it. so don't approach that. love comes in all shapes and sizes. who are you to judge when the limit is?

  • people AND teenagers DONT think sex is love. nobody said 10 year old have sex. and even if they do, its their choice. it doesnt matter what you think really. everybody has their own opinions. really. grow up and stop telling people you dont even know what to do. let us have our opinions.

  • Unique Woman arent to many people made like this

  • she can sing!

  • @Joeey she is the instruments watch "just for now"

  • imogen heap is an amazing singer. instrumets just add some pizazz to a song. the smoothness and pureness of her voice is the only thing that really matter, the singer is the only matter! just watch it, plus those backgroung voices, she makes them by singing into the piano recorder, and syncs them with her other recordings. she does it on live shgows. just watch it

  • dear Joeey may be you are not aware that almost all the music you hear is digital sampling.... anyhow, I can hear melody, harmony and a person singing (very well indeed) so... I like this digital sampling. Thank you Imogen

  • Dear Ima Jean, Go look up some Little Walter and then get back to me about that "everything is digital samples" bull-jive. Look forward to your wining and dining me for helping you out. Signed, Record Producer Let's Keep It Real Joey. It really is not that hard. No "tricks up the sleeve" cut n paste required, just a real console, some mics, and ... you know, ears like the Grand Canyon, babe = music (and legacy).

  • Dear record producer, feel free to keep listening some good quality old fashioned 12 bar blues. Poor me! I get bored and prefer John Coltrane or Miles Davis when I want to hear some "not digital sampled music". About the "ears like the grand canyon" try the preformance of Imogen Heap at indie 103, and let me know...

  • please see / check comments to video. thank you.

  • PS The genius of the Ying Yang Twins is that through relating and satire / humor, they ac-tu-al-ly depressurize complex situations. And that makes good art.

  • @Joeey What the hell is a record producer doing arguing on youtube?

  • Keeping yo straight. Somebody's got to do it. Plus, this is a record producer who likes to type. It's a mad mad world. The analog to digital recording transition was a decade of pure hell. It is just starting to work right. I will save you the hand wringing over bit rate, bit size and auditory "depth of field." To boil it down, better resolution = "depth of field" of the sound stage. It started out very flat dimension. Bit rate also, in particular, affects higher harmonics = "air" in the sound.

  • Point is, it costs less money to record today but maybe technique and history of the art is even more significant to great sounding recordings. There is no reason to make records in a shoe-box corner with some computers and these shife samples and then make believe it is a big bad album. It is not. This is a throw away track. You have to get real people involved, real artists, have a greater relevant vision / mission = art. (this is fucking greeting card "music"!). CALLING T-PAIN! (innovator)

  • @Joeey, you make me lol very hard. Thanks xD

  • As much as a I hate to admit it, aside from a couple of Asian pianists, Xu Hong and Nobuyuki Tsuuji, the one recording that made a strong good impression on me is from Ying Yang Twins. Those tracks sound great (and I still don't know what git-low means). The track Salt Shaker is just a great sounding track with remarkable creativity. They're clowns but they make a great track. Every little detail of the track is well done. Damn impressive. The entire record is cohesive w/ good production values.

  • check out "Boom, It's On!" what a pair of clowns. great wordplay. meticulously crafted track. solid poetics. humor and brilliant fully-realized production, nothing lacking. "stupid" "violent" and "sexist" camp entertainment: watch?v=9n10kV54xnc

  • @Joeey I feel ya J man. Imogen's name must have been added to the Grammy Nomination list for Best Produced Album by mistake. Seriously though, I don't know anything about recording, but Imogen has the musical chops keep your head spinning for a while. The music is what I care about.You talk about art- Listen to Ellipse.

  • Thanks for schooling me on the album, I did not know of it. Allow me recommend to you video to find on youtube "Fatal Bazooka - Trankillement." I like to call it "something happened in 2008." Summer 2008 was a good time music video from Germany and France. It has almost 7 million views. Not bad for something so completely obscure in the "marketed" culture. As music videos go, pretty much a "major work of art" :-) / :-( ? GW Bush era stimulating satire /. response. No so fun now. Pay the thieves.

  • another hip hop idiot

  • @zombieslayer411 What is the bass track? Some digital combination of a fretless bass and a weather balloon?

    Ack.

  • @Joeey funny funny comment.nice work!

  • Comment removed

  • I do believe children at the age of eleven and so on can fall in love/ date through personal experience. Some children loose their first kiss at an earlier age than that. There's nothing wrong with it of course and it is possible.

  • Really nice song, something fresh, young, and with a possitive meaning but mostly on the cruelty of realism, For me that Im so difficult on music this gets a A+

  • This song makes me feel so happy and lovely!

    Yay for Immi for putting it together while she was also doing Ellipse! :D

  • I feel like I just walked in on a councelling session

  • What's with these essays. Just enjoy the music. <3

  • lovely!

  • Imogen = <3

    3:03 to outro is a connection fulfilled.

    Satellites maneuver in beams of change.

  • What an awesome song..I love her voice..So soothing and once again awesome..

    And relationships when young are temporary..There is no need to hurt so much over them..Someone else always comes along and makes life bright again :)

  • I do not want spam in my comments, everyone is free to express your opinions:) I accept all the comments:) thanks

    ITALIANO

    non voglio spam nei miei commenti ognuno è libero di esprimere i propri giudizi :) accetto tutti i commenti :)grazie

  • Yes, at the time it feels as though you can't ever get over the fact that the person you love doesn't want you.. but really, it's incredible what one year without them can do. I can say with confidence that I'm over my ex after a year :) don't give up hope!! x

  • guys remember that I appreciate very much your comments rated yet I appreciate very much if you want thanks for your support

  • @goudith omfg man i was sitting in my studio thinking about my ex and wondering why she doesnt feel the way i do and then i read this comment...its a sign thank-you

  • @DefinedART it's a pleasure =) hope things get better for you

  • @SaturnGirlDark13: Sweetheart, you are only 11. Trust me, you have so much more to live for. Oh how I wish I could go back to that age and re-live my carefree life. Honey, I'm going to pray for you, to figure things through. They make work out, they may not. But just remember, God makes things happen for a reason, and you have a plan for your life. Live that to it's fullest.

  • Know something that makes her, Temposhark, etc. so AWESOME? They ENCOURAGE spreading their tunes--this video AND a Frou Frou one posted by user Osoroshii are FEATURED... THAT is a great move for an artist--let us show our love and spread it everywhere because it just proves they do have strong fans AND aren't trying to keep us from loving their contribution to the world!

  • One of my most favorite songs <3

  • This song was stuck in my head all day! Geez!

  • This song is sorta sad, if you look at it in more than one way.

  • SaturnGirlDark13 : i know your hurting but give life time..i'm a fellow self injurer and that gets better as you grow and become who you really are..i know you know how to love but as you get older love gets even harder trust me

  • btw amazing group and song!

  • Imogen is her name. She's a solo artist ;)

  • really?  i've found it gets easier. mainly, well, now i know what i want and i have it, but also all those little traps i used to fall into are so obvious i don't mess around anymore. but, here i am popping into a convo i only read half of. bye now!

  • Whats your real name.. cause im nicole and i dont know who you are.. ?

  • By the way, that's a really cool picture of her...

  • Wow, she does have an amazing range. Just listen to Speeding Cars to hear that. haha. She's incredible.

    And SaturnGirlDark13, you may have felt like it ruined your life, but your life has only been 11 years long... I felt like that too, but just wait, the best things haven't nearly happened yet.

  • this is what i'm in rite now, i just got thru a breakup that ruined my life, and i still have feelings for him. last night i prayed to god for a dream about anything good in my life that might happen. anything that would keep me out of depression and self injury, and he showed my ex and i, happy, together, but we were teens. (we're only eleven rite now) and that tells me that it will all work out. it will work out not now, but soon.

  • You're 11...

    You aren't old enough to date sweetheart, and trust me, you have no idea what love is.

  • i know your intention is only good but I honestly think I am better off just following my own path. And yes i do have an idea of what love is.

  • a lot of 1 years olds date, even tho there are to young to. and just because your 11 doesnt mean that you dont know what love is. i know several ppl who have fallen in love at 12 or 13 and thats not much older than 11. and all of them are adults now and know that they really were in love. its rare for an 11 year old to fall in love, but posible and they would have an idea of what it is.

  • 1YR OLDS DATE?????????????????

  • as if age dosent matter in love

  • @zombieslayer411 Age definitely matters in love, which is why you don't see 10 year olds having sex.

    Tell me one person you know who met their soulmate at age 11? I'm gonna guess and say you don't know any.

    Wait until about 16-17 before you start dating seriously.

  • @ZeranZeran no im talking about like starting off in relationships like hugging and holding hands not going BOOM at night like on a beginner level

  • "Your stupid"....A summary of miracle24babe, sushipacksadface, and zombieslayer411 's comments!

    Are you going to stand for that?

  • ur 11? when ur 16/18 ull be a completely diff person, look bk at how upset u are about this righht now and wonder why. Walk away from it , have fun, your a kid, ur too young for full on relationships. im 18 and i feel too young for anything too serious!

  • quiet

  • 11! okay i love it that your getting the song, but your elevan? your life will be a lot better if you wait until your sixteen or even after highschool like what i'm doing. i'm waiting till i'm twenty three, cause i want to go on a mission then marriage

  • thats good, please odn't give up hope on your dream for you and your ex okay? don't listen to them. Cause not all guys are the same nor girls.I have the same problema nd I did the same you did and now I'm with him! ;D

    So keep having faitht hats all you need kiddo

  • im really sorry that that happened to you, and that these ppl are discrimating you because of your age. however, you are still young and have many changes in love. it may not be much comfort now, but just try to hold on and know that it will get better. you still have plenty of time to change your life

  • I agree and disagree with others here.  11 is very young to fall in love, but I'm not saying you didn't. I do believe that your perception of love when you're younger is very much so different than once you've matured and experienced life a little more. I also fell in love when I was quite young but now that I'm older I realize what real love is. I was still in love when I was younger but what I perceived as love was completely different than the way I do now. And that may mean that in a

  • few years what I think of love may have changed again. From the way you talk you're very mature for you age so take this to heart: Take sadness and depression in stride, it's not the end and things will get better eventually. There is always a silver lining sometimes we just have to take a step back to see it. Good luck with you and your ex and whether it works out or not you'll be fine. Pain is something we must experience in order to appreciate happiness.

    <3

  • Honestly, you need to calm down immediately and think about it carefully! You're young. I'm older than you and even *I* haven't dated. Even though I have zero experience, I do know that you'll find someone truly worthwhile that will make you forget all the bad. Calm down and remember that this will only make your heart stronger. You'll be a beautiful women in the future with all the experience. Be strong caterpillar.. :)

  • I can't stop think this song is a little bit different than the others songs Imogen Heap have done, But still, I love her :D

    I really like this one and I'm so totally whit MidnaLoveLinkForever, that is the best part <3

  • Although I have all of her albums, I always find Immi's songs randomly when looking around. It's always a surprise, and the songs are always good.

  • thank you so much :) i appreciate it!

  • she's got a great range...i think she's an alto..i love her voice. it's so different from everyone els'es today..

  • I love this song alot. I'd never think of explaining a feeling as pillow fighting excitement. But I've felt that. Where you get SO excited you have to let the energy out somehow. Usually I just scream. Another one of my favorite parts of this song is the one where she sings-

    I'll hang on grab onto your feet

    Someone else holds tied to my shoelaces

    When their trouser leg tears, runs and stops at the seam to keep us

    dangled together

    Until help finds us here

    That part I can imagine.

  • Love this a lot!..Thank you

  • thank you so much :) i really appreciate it :)

  • Pretty sure she used the hang drum she bought in this song. <3

    Amazing.

  • I think this is may favourite of her songs so far, though Speeding Cars runs close second.

    Thank you for posting :)

  • Thank you so much I really appreciate it :) look my another video :) i have the new song from imogen heap :)

  • i like it.

  • hey guys thank you al everyone for send the comment :) i really appreciate your comment you make me feel better! :) thank you for your support :)

  • nice track

  • i feel like the title of this song was telling her fans that the new cd was going to be out "not now, but soon."

  • woop I love Imogen heaps music, I wanted to buy her new album yesterday but couldnt find it anywhere :(, im going to check on amazon.

  • I love her music too, & i also went to buy Ellipse to a big music store.. but the didn´t know anything abaut her last album, so i think i´ll buy it on ebay.

  • This song leaves me speachless and clears my mind from whats around me. Love this song

  • I love the background music at the beginning~!

    *-*

  • i know!me too

  • I love the steps sounds
