Wow. Hold on, give me a second... I need to relax after this one.

This was crazy difficult. Not only was it just difficult note-wise, but the rhythms were ridiculous too. It was loads of fun though!

I started working on this in June. I did take July and August off while I was away for the summer, but all in all this is the product of a little less than 4 months of work.
There are 8 voices that you don't see, but that's just because I couldn't fit them on screen. 4 baritone voices and 4 tenor voices do not have videos to go along with them, but there aren't any splits in those parts so I don't think that matters that much. There are 7 voice parts in all, plus the Soprano solo.

I'll admit, I did cheat a little bit with the bass 2 part... I wasn't planning on doing this song because of how low the bass part was. But one day (and singers will know what I mean) I woke up and for some reason I just wasn't getting the high notes I usually do... but my range compensated by giving me ridiculous low notes... so I learned the bass part and took everything from there... believe me, I don't normally have the low C's and D's that I sing in the video. But don't take this to mean that I used autotune, because I never have and I never will. I just took advantage of a day where my voice was lower than usual,

The solo at the end is the top left box, the one wearing a bowtie. My soloists wear bowties now, bowties are cool.

It would be awesome if you all would tweet this video to @ImogenHeap

    I'm not entirely sure how looking in different directions is gay? Is this a new thing that I'm unaware of that attracts members of the same sex?? Please enlighten me, you are clearly are much more versed in the ways of homosexuality than I am.

    That was a great performance! You nailed the song and choir merge perfectly, you've got that down to 100%! I'd like to see more of your videos man!

    The only thing that might need some work is the video itself. Basic stuff like lighting and sound recording as well as effects to make it more interresting.
