Imogen Heap "Hide and Seek" live on Indie 103. THE LAST KISS Hosted by Zach Braff. From THE LAST KISS Soundtrack.

This video comment section is proof that tons of people don’t know what auto tune is or what it does, and even more people don’t know what a vocoder is or what it does, and still MORE people don’t realize how talented this woman is for being able to perform this song live with the effects she used in the studio and have it sound like this. Massive props to Imogen Heap she is an incredible talent.
Well said!
Hey man, what are you talking about? I don't have to know what a vocoder is, or else. I just enjoy the song, nothing more.
@@NickKnatterton. but you're also not talking shit in the comment-section, so Jacobs comment isn't directed at you..
Not auto tune. Thats a reverb of her voice autotuned.
She's legitimately one of the, if not THE, most talented musician, composer and singer around today. She's at once original and familiar, melodic and trend-breaking. Also, her name kicks ass.
People!!! She is not only singing. She is playing keyboard and operating a mixer, delay and god knows what else, at the same time. She is Great!!.
You try singing and playing an instrument to perfection live sometime! Great stuff!!
nah bro she's just playing the harmonizer and singing, and that's already wayyyy enough, she's only have two hands and one mouth just like the rest of us
To be fair, all of the settings & configurations of the various effects chains and VSTs (virtual instruments) were created, perfected and saved in files on her laptop. She isn't manipulating/altering those during the performance.
And people have been accompanying themselves with complex musical instruments for centuries, and with more simple instruments for eons...
In fact, it is believed that spoken language is predated by singing in humans.
I'm not attempting to imply that she less talented/amazing than you opine. However, what she's doing (on the level of the physical tasks/actions she is executing) in those performance is not at all uncommon, rate, unusual or exceptional although it does show an advanced level of skill (the result of practice/repetition) and talent (natural abilities which may be further developed).
@@DJJonPattrsn22 she's playing an harmonizer, anmixer and a loop station, while she's singing.. and she has written this beautiful song.. so this mix of skills is not "common", sorry for you..
How she came up with this song, the song itself, the lyrics, the meaning behind the lyrics, the vocoder effects, the creativity behind this song it's awesome. And she can recreate/reproduce the sound live, it's just amazing, mistakes and all it's still amazing.
She used auto tune and honestly some people say that it replaces talent but it adds so much to her already amazing voice!!
No it's not auto tune it actually is a vocoder. Don't get the two confused they sound similar but work very differently
+Zorya Utrennyaya It's awesome. One of the major influences for the song is Paul Lansky’s “Her Song.”
Agreed. This song is art, not a meme IMO.
it sure is original without being way too overboard weird
One of the most beautiful songs of all time IMO
✨💯💯💯 true 🙏🏽🌹❤️✨✨✨
here 17 years (!) later and still true. And it’s not the vocoder.
@@leobewley375 100% accurate statement. It is nothing like any other song I have ever heard. It has no genre
3:27 the breathy notes are such an Imogen Heap thing. Always sounds so nice when she does that.
I think this style had a big impact on Bastille
reminds me of Caroline Polachek
@@EFNBrktt that’s what I was going to say! Caroline is one of my favorite contemporary artists, and Imogen’s influence on her singing is VERY apparent, in the best way.
Caroline uses a very similar larynx position and nasal resonance to get that Imogen-ish tone, but despite the clear influence, her voice is also very much her own. Caroline has that insanely clean register flip (the move that defines yodeling) that she uses almost constantly, creating note transitions that sound autotuned or cut-and-pasted but are achieved completely with her natural instrument.
I love them both so much, they’re some of the most talented, innovative, and creative musicians of our lifetime. I first got into Imogen because someone put “Rake It In” on a mixtape, and when I found her other music I was initially a little put off because back then I had a prejudice against technology in music. But over time I came to appreciate her immense talent (and get over my dumb genre biases)
And similarly, when I first heard “So Hot You’re Hurting My Feelings” I kind of wrote Caroline off as bubblegum pop, but I came to love the song and then “Desire” came out and I was just so blown away. I would love to hear them work together someday.
@@LemonMeIon Bastille crossed my mind too
@@LemonMeIon yes Dan smith uses this style a lot
one of the most haunting voices I've ever heard. you can sense her passion.
she's obviously using a vocoder, which is a device used in studio that creates a robot effect with multiple harmonies. ITS NOT REALLY AUTOTUNE. its a way to create a futuristic sound to a simple voice. respect this.
definitely no auto tune.
@@kh2b573 auto tune is literally auto-tunes your voice to make the note more clean. this is just a harmonizing with her they are completely different things🤝
what an amazing mix of talent, technical knowledge and pure passion.
Thank you, you get it
Finally someone who gets it
If you dont appreciate this... it's a you problem
Absolutely slayed... original...and cant be replicated
Obviously sampled as it has already been done
This raw energy and feelings is insane
Facts 💯
She actually has a great voice, it's just really hard to sing perfectly in tune with a vocoder since it's not relative to her voice. The keys she's pressing down on the keyboard manipulate the sound of her voice into the corresponding notes, so before she's singing anything in the mic she has to know what exact frequency to sing at. That's pretty hard. Kudos!
its a harmonizer, not a vocoder
you don't need auto tune when you have 4 plus octives
@@Navneetisawesome definetly a vocoder
Thanks music expert had no idea she had talent! Gee whiz!
@@Navneetisawesome it’s a vocoder
The fact that Zach Braff is in this video adds to the already epicness of it, I love this song.
Totally agree
Please tell me you have seen the film Garden State?
this comment is epic :)
For those who are wondering how the effect she is using is produced, basically she's sampling her voice and running it through the keyboard. Thus what she's playing on the keyboard is her voice synthesized live. Pretty cool stuff.
It's nice to better hear the "dry signal" in this version. Makes me appreciate the singing even more. Timeless piece for sure.
Bring your own wet knob! o.O
Yeah, I didn't get how it worked before, that you hear her raw voice, and the vocoded copy acts as the backing track.
She's using a TC Helicon Voicelive which is not Auto tune or a vocoder, it's a vocal harmonizer that turns your voice into three or four harmony parts based on the notes and chords you play on your instrument.
Is that not, functionally, a vocoder?
I have a tc helicon and it 100% has auto tune and vocoder and harmonizing function. She’s using the vocoder here. If she was using the harmonize function there’d be no need for the piano playing. Also the really dissonant harmonies she does wouldn’t work since they’re not in a simple chord which is what the harmonize function does.
@@shizamza nope is not a vocoder
@@jaliebs3988no, it’s a harmonizer controlled by midi, vocoders take the character of the instrument, harmonizers take the original voice and detune it to any note played, using the original source
Back when i was in high school and now am 30. Nostalgic.
How old is this song? (I'm 35 btw)
@@robbiedimes 16
Wow Amazing... beautiful track. I'm happy I finally discovered it.
Me too ❤️
@@deniselabbate7192 You are awesome
People need to understand that this isn't autotune. How shitty is her autotune when her natural voice is extremely audible and at the forefront of the sound?
No, you need to understand what autotune is. Let me get this right; Are you saying that autotune isn't autotune if the artist is a talented singer? That using autotune isn't using autotune if their voice at the forefront of the effect? If these questions sound stupid it's because they are.
This is not autotune. It's called a vocoder. She is controlling the chord swells with the keyboard. Vocoders have been around far longer than autotune.
Both autotune and vocorders are used with a keyboard but I see your point Jason Parker. Yet the difference between effects made is negligible in this case. One is no more shameful than the other.
I respectfully disagree. In this case, knowing her sensibilities as an artist, a desired effect was warranted. If there were no natural voice layer then, yes, it would be shameful. Have you seen the performance with her and the vocal group, Mahogany? It's enchanting. Zero vocal assistance.
I can respect that very much and in no way do I believe this song or her talent is cheapened by the use of synth effects. My only intention is to dispel the belief that autotune makes the artist. These are tools and they can be abused...just not as often as many believe. And no I haven't! I will look it up right now. Thank you for the suggestion!
The fact that Zach Braff introduces her makes it even more amazing.
hey i know im 9 years late but you kinda made a tongue twister right there bro, nice one :)
@@1ambadhey i know im 1 year late but that kinda doesn’t make a tongue twister right there bro, nice one :)
@@frapphuddy5492 i know im 3 months late but try and say it 5 times fast bro, nice one :)
One of the best songs in the last 20 years without question
Her range is amazing.
It doesn't matter if she uses vocoder/autotune or not those are tools and you can use them however you like, this is art
Bravo
Jealous haters who arent happy with their lives are the people who say thing like that
This isnt autotune.
absolutely. and the way she does it is just incredible. it’s amazing
But dude, she’s using a delay instead of singing the same thing over again at perfect intervals with reduced volume. What a hack.
17 Years ago. God help us
Her voice is seriously amazing. 2:58 how high is that?!?!! She's incredible.
Compression and placement.
b5! (13y late)
I can't believe it's almost 10 years of this!
Can you believe that this comment is 3 years old?
@@Ugleseth time needs to slow down a little
@@marcelloafricano the older you get, faster the time flies. Yessiree.
13 years.
@Dangus Changus will never stop lovin it.
All I could think of the whole time was how insanely hard this has to be to pull off this well live.. that's pulling straight from source right there
SHE IS AMAZING...just this! I discovered this song watching "The O.C" there are 9 years maybe, I don't know...but since there, this is one of my favourite song ever....She keeps the magic singing live! Great.
Yes.. you describe my words, finally someone who understands me !
haha...I don't know other singer like her...the effects, the way she keeps the magic singing live! Wonderful! I'm glad you also enjoy her.
lovely story :) OC brought me here too but, over 10 years ago
bro OC like 15 years ago we are the same generation for sure lmfao
✨❤️ OC Memories 💯💯🙏🏽🌹❤️✨
i don't know what i'm more surprised at. no one died, or that this isn't actually a group of guys singing acapella
this song perpetually changes the way i understand music. imogen is a genius.
Love how every version of this song is unique and different, also love her hair.
She's so incredibly talented. Her music must touch a lot of people's hearts.
The ending was phenomenal..
I don't know how that works but She made the keyboard sing while she sings!! That is COOL.
Jaw was dropped.
its a vocoder, it is like playing your own voice
There is still something very organic about this song, which is very hard to find now a days. Awesome song!
Oily marks appear on walls
Where pleasure moments hung before
Feel that in my soul every time I hear it. The joy in the moment, taking the photo. The sweet nostalgia going through the photos & loving it enough to print it up and hang it. Hanging the photo so it’s perfectly placed on the wall. All to be taken down and that moment lost forever
I love this so much
Who cares if it isn't perfect. That's what I like about it. She pours so much emotion into it that the song is beautiful in its imperfection.
Oh !
I want to cry.
My eyes are full of tears and my heart has turned into a magic tear,like a diamond.
I've seen Imogen do this live...it's beautiful. It brings me to tears......
***** In my opinion this is not really autotune. As SpychoSpy pointed out she does use a vocoder, but its not really like the normal auto-tune you hear every day. This takes talent to do this right and well. Great song btw and even more awsome live!
The vocoder works quite differently from auto-tune. It's about playing your own voice, not modulating it into a scale. in this case, she's playing the accompanying voices and the reverb of her own. Quite remarkable.
It's not an opinion, this literally is not auto tuned.
It literally is auto tuned ...
It’s a TC Helicon voice live 2 or something similiar , which can be set to auto tune your voice to a fixed scale (eg C Major) or to add harmony parts at a fixed interval e.g a major third above ... Or to be triggered by midi as is the case here ...
Her lead vocal parts are dry (untuned), and all the harmonies are autotuned to what she’s playing on the keyboard ... it’s not a vocoder ... A vocoder uses one signal to modulate another , e.g using a vocal part to modulate a piano part (analog) think 1970s ELO ... This effect is very digital , could not have been done in the 1970’s ... Whatever patch is loaded on the keyboard is irrelevant , could be strings , could be piano , could be banjo , it’s irrelevant ... the keyboard is silent and just outputting midi signal to literally auto tune her voice
this song used to make me scared and so uncomfortable as a kid and i don’t know why. it still does but i like it now. insane vocals, i had to see her sing it live to believe it and let me say, did not disappoint. amazing talent, can’t wait to dive deeper into her work.
Absolutely brilliant and beautiful..
just incredible... I have loved Imogen Heap since 1998....
I have no idea what she was saying, but the sounds of it all were very nice
Mmm what you say?
What did she say? :)
Art by Atlas same
Art by Atlas lyrics are clear...
shes pretty articulate
Daniel Reishus It really isnt that clear. Could only make out tid bits here and there.
Beauty is this.
Speak no feeling no, I don't believe you (I don't believe you). You don't care a bit, you don't care a bit!
To see her play this, from her sweet youth, is so incredibly pure❤
I love the beginning, middle and end of this lovely song! 🎶 added to my favorites!
2:53 - 3:01
Proof angels exist.
Kasey Bay Doyle great comment ❤️
Chills
This's Catching my breath every time I listen
I was honestly surprised how well she did this live, I was hesitant to check it out, but she did a wonderful job. I enjoyed it
Her voice is so pretty and natural. I love watching her perform.
One of my “baby/children” memories is my mom listening to this song on and on after her best friend died at a young age after a battle with cancer. i don’t know much about what happened but this still give me chills, and a sometimes it makes me cry even tho I’ve had a good day, I don’t know it is something about it that’s very special to me.
I knew about her for years now discovered her from when her music was in The O.C. became a fan instantly but this is first time I've ever seen what she looked like lol
me too
BTW it's a vocoder, not auto tune. Very big difference.
More talent
@@executivethrillseeker6549indeed
I could see this song being used in a death scene in a movie it's so eerie yet peaceful. It's beautiful.
Yeah prob for the death of the world lol it's epic
Wow. That was incredible. I am blown away at how good that sounded live.
I’m eternally grateful that she created that song.
the in between is fascinating...how deliberate each note is... when she releases the word "SEEK" 2:35... her breathing between phrases... her facial expressions says so much about what she is singing... the notes that are so soft they gently whisper... beautiful! listening to this with good quality headphones is highly recommended.
Genialny utwór. Aż łezka się w oku kręci.
✨ Tak💯💯💯 prawda ❤️🌹✨
I actually find this song strangely calming and a very deep song. She is also a beutiful singer
such voice :3.. so beautiful
One of the greatest songs and a great life performance.
First time seeing this performance. That was insanely good.
2:48... chills...
3:09 and on made jason derulo a millionaire.
Imogen heap too as the credited writer
It's amazing that she can sing live and still sound like the recording. She's incredible.
And Jason DeRulo took this art and ripped it apart. Hers came first.
Probably made a lot of money cause of him
She's an immense songwriting and producing talent! She usually writes and produces her entire albums all by herself.
shes got meanin,good lyrics and produces it all herself absolutly beautiful
0:14 me when I dont get the lesson in math
Lol wtf is Zach braff doing on here
He loves her dude
+David Paskiewicz He has her music in his movies.
He basically discovered her and put her in the movie Garden State when she was in a band called Frou Frou.
David Paskiewicz was that the guy in scrubs ya what is he doing here
What the hell is going on?
Legit cried.
This will forever get me even on this day so talented watching this 12 years later or more this woman does not get enough credit
Omg I first heard this song in 2005 when I was in high school. I loved it then and still do but it’s crazy being older listening to it now and it meaning something completely different to me than it did in high school.
Unbelievably beautiful voice, this is what I would go to a show to see… this is talent.
regardless of what anyone says, i firmly believe she is the artist of the century. actual genius. id go so far to defend that statement too like this talent is unmatched and its unique beyond measure.
Fucking jason de rulo, originals are allways the best.
this makes me want to cry 😨
I have to confess that I keep playing the "Mmm.. whatchya say" part over and over. Granted the whole song is beautiful and you can't truly appreciate Imogen's talent without listening to the whole thing. But that part is particularly hypnotic.
Stop picking it apart and just listen to it as a work. Truly beautiful.
3:08
the most mid 2000s videos i've ever seen
And thats a good thing!
***** Are you saying that just because she used a vocoder means she isn't talented?
I LOVE IMOGEN HEAP One of my favourite artists, i will never get bored of her music
It’s amazing she came up with a song like this
This song will forever be gravity.
JD!
ugh...
You can still hear her voice behind the auto tuning and its beautiful
Correction: she does not use an auto tune. She's harmonizing with a keyboard synthesizer and using a vocoder for the distortion effects
i can't say how much i love this song. i can hear it over and over again, amazing voice.
This song is one of the best minimalist compositions i have ever heard. Imogen I thank you for your amazing talent.
WHAT KIND OF VOCODER IS THAT?!!!!!!!!!!
D.J. Max said to be Akai Decabuddy harmonizer triggering notes to her voice + any vocoder can do the rest. Akai has one too. Now the Electro-Harmonix Voice Box, that's the beast. Looking for a software version now.
Nice nice.
This song is about her parents divorce and the auto tune represents her feeling of confusion and distortion.
I only liked the part with the girl singing in jason derulo version of the song and now i finely know why, because its not his.
Woof-woof! Remember when a strolling minstrel used to simultaneously play a guitar, blow a harmonica, bang a drum and sing a song? Well, Imogen Heap is one of those 21st century artists who can take a keyboard, her voice and a computer and pull together amazing sound. Here, she does it live and, I must say (in all groundhog-like humility), her combination is awe-striking. Give your self a treat, enlarge the youtube screen, hit 'play' and permit yourself to be mentally massaged
I’ve never watched a video so often! Still remember the first time watching this video and listening to this beautiful song 17 years ago 🤯🙏🏾🥹
i'm legitematly trying to figure what is the meaning to this song. its pretty random
It's about her parents divorce and her feelings and reaction.
Some people say it's about a aliens 😂
Heap has been reluctant to say exactly what inspired this song, but most of what she's said indicates that she wrote this song about the separation of her parents when she was 12 and her father finding a new wife.
"Crop Circles in the carpet" means the furniture has been moved out and all that is left are crop circle imprints. "Oily marks appear on walls where pleasure moments hung before" means photos have been taken down. All signs that someone is moving out of the home.
Heap has called the images "a collection of childhood memories."

Thanks for the background. Playing the song again with this knowledge makes me feel gutted.
Cosa ci fa Scrubbone?
3:08 is what your looking for
but not really cause the whole song is awesome
this was way beyond her time. still loving this song
every now and then wen i go through songs, i uncover a gem, i think this is my gem, this is unbelieveably amazing

When I first heard this song, the lyrics didn't make sense to me
Same! I needed to look up an explanation. :)
+Alexandre Christiansen what's the explanation? please
+Ian Adriel Montoya Well, I looked it up years ago but I think I remember reading somewhere that she was writing about her parents' divorce, unfortunately.
Oh :( .. Thanks!
i love how she doesnt try to over do it like some celebrities do when their on live. she just keeps it the way it was sung.
One of my fav live performances of all time. OF ALL TIME
