    Listen to Hide and Seek. It's probably the most beautiful song I've heard in a very long time. I've literally listened to it every day for the past month, sometimes on repeat.

    "Oily marks appear on walls
    Where pleasure moments hung before
    The take-over, the sweeping insensitivey
    Of this still life"

    Its a fun listen. I don't know how beautiful I'd call it.

    such a shame that she has so few other songs that are as worth listening to. don't you find?

    Yeah. I think that's probably the only song I like.

    Eh I didn't like it that much. It doesn't have that same feel to it.

    The a cappella group at my school performed Hide and Seek at a concert last night. It sounds so much more beautiful in a SATB arrangement.

    Yes! The a cappella group at my school performed it a few weeks ago. It's so beautiful. I sing it a cappella with my boyfriend, but it doesn't sound nearly as good with 2 people as it does with the entire SATB.

    I'm with you on that, I don't like many of her other songs but I love that.
    "Crop circles in the carpet. Sinking. Feeling."
    I did like some of the songs when she was Frou Frou though.

    I feel Frou Frou was probably her strongest effort. The single album they released was pretty decent. 'Hear me out' and 'Let go' are strong tunes.

    Imogen Heaps solo stuff, a little bit pretentious I find. Although all is forgiven as she is appearing on the new IAMX album come May.

    All of her songs are amazing! I don't know how you could say they're not. What about them don't you like?
