Imogen Heap - Speak for yourself

If any of you are into your female artists then I recommend Imogen Heap. I first heard of her stuff quite some back but it only recently shes become recognised which is kewl imo cos people with her kind of talent shouldn't be wasted! :)

I've just recently been listening to her latest album "Speak for yourself" with one of my fav tracks being "Just For Now" :)

I'm not to sure how to describe her, but its not pop. If any of you have listened to Jem then its on the same kinda wavelength but probably a tad calmer. Well thats how'd I describer her. Anyone that wants to know more....... go here : http://www.imogenheap.co.uk/

Her early stuff was better I think and nothing can touch the Frou Frou album. I really wish they'd record another album, Details was just so sublime & massively underated.

I think after episode 23 of The OC, is when she started to get recognised a lot more. "Hide and Seek" was the name of the track if I remember correctly.

I'm into my female artists like Beth Orton, Michelle Branch, Missy Higgins, all different in ways but unique in others :)

Yeah true but she also got a lot of recognition after Shrek 2 as Frou Frou did a comedy cover of Bonnie Tyler's "I need a hero". Seriously if you haven't heard the Details album check it out as Imogen's song writing & voice are superb on it.

Thanks for that :)

I ant seen Shrek2 yet :( But Bonnie Tyler sang "I need a hero" quite well, so I can't imagine how good Imogen's cover will sound like but I'm going to assume its a lot better :)
