      I can understand where artists come from when they want people to love all their work and not just one song.
      But I feel like if I was an artist, I’d love my one BIG song with the whole crowd cause sometimes you gotta respect what built you instead of what you built. That one big song is for the crowd and artists who don’t play their one big song are kinda selfish
      A lot of metal bands will give of playing their old shit and leave the fans high and dry when really we all want that banger off the first album :)

      Vocal cords are fickle instruments. Just a gust of cold air, or a bit of dehydration, humidity, the time of day, even some paracetamol will totally change the way they react. And, of course, the effect of ageing.
      She handles it well though. It’a a beautiful song and she’s a great artist. It’s always very hard to hit that one note that takes 100% to get just right. Some days you just can’t muster more than 95.

Music should be imperfect and I really admire the artists who embrace that.

Daughters especially get eaten up in the modern landscape without this essential guidance. Strong fathers are needed more than ever before. I wish you the best.

    What an oddly captivating performance by a completely engaging performer.
    Hide & Seek has been a long time favourite, but to see Imogen obviously enjoying performing live to what seems to be a beat poets club ads a whole new level of enjoyment of the song.
    Thanks Imogen!

And they'll be elated that the brilliant blue-green mudball of spaceship Earth was not nearly destroyed by the monkeys in their too-late realization of the connected-ness we all share with stardust and potential and each other.

    One of my all-time favorites. Imgogen Heap is a most creative artist/inventor. Ariana Grande worked with her to learn to use her musical gloves to perform this song live in a charmingly sweet performance.
    I saw Imogen live in a small theater and requested Hide & Seek. She complied but said it wasn’t as good without the electronics. Though I agreed I had to say, “Sorry, loved it!” On the way out I ran smack face-to-face into the stunning Daryl Hannah and I couldn’t even stop I was still so moved by Imogen’s performance. A true polymath. I love her.
