q&a (part 2) - imogen heap lyrics

[imogen heap]
“so, so, so, h-llo. so, a few more questions and then i’m gonna play one more song and then we can all go home. except i’m not going home, i’m going to have some drinks at the bar. so… oh, i didn’t answer the first person’s question ’cause i was so rude. in answer to your question, i don’t know when the next album is going to be out, but i’m hoping that i’ll be finished by kind of february, which means it probably won’t be out until april, but april’s not too bad. anyone else?”

“where’d you get your corset?”

[imogen heap]
“ooh, good question. i got it in… where was it? it’s a place in america, and i think it’s, erm… no… no… it was somewhere like… i think it was philly, i think it was philadelphia. yeah, i got it in philadelphia. i’d been eating a bit too many pies on the road and i thought i should suck them in. h-llo!”

“what’s it like working with jeff beck?”

[imogen heap]
“jeff beck! jeff beck’s great! jeff beck… jeff beck, jeff beck… i met him under the stars in a 12th century castle, as you do. and jeff beck, for anybody shamefully who doesn’t know who jeff beck is, he’s like the most amazing guitarist on the planet. and i stupidly didn’t actually know who he was when i met him… but i was playing guitar very badly, a little bit of wine – i sound a right drunkered kind of, anyway, s-x maniac. so i was playing the guitar and jeff came out and he was like ‘oh, do you play guitar do you?’ and i was like ‘no, not really’ and he was like ‘oh, let me show you a few things’. so he showed me like some really sl!ck chords, but they were quite simple, but i was just like… oh, great, thanks very much, mate. and i said, why don’t you just keep the guitar and i’ll just have a little sing. and so we did, we sang and played guitar under the stars, it was lovely. and then we worked together and we’ve become really good friends, and yeah he’s lovely. it’s really nice to meet someone who’s been there, done it a million times and is still a really, really lovely guy. very nice.”

“where in london do you find most inspiring?”

[imogen heap]
“um… that’s a good question, i like that. well, when i was doing the record, the last record, i was in- i had a studio in bermondsey which is se16, which is south london and east. i know we’re all londoners here, it’s a bit snooty. and so from basically around london bridge, you can, where the mayor’s place, where there’s that kind of s-xy kind of flooring and it’s nice to cycle on, even though you’re not really allowed to. well, i like it there, i like it there. i like it there at night when you can see tower bridge and it’s all glistening and it’s all kind of, it’s really beautiful. actually, ‘daylight robbery’ is written about that journey home which is from london bridge down to where i live in waterloo and i just love the journey, it’s really, really fantastic. it’s a great place.”

“what music did you listen to growing up and which was your first album that you bought?”

[imogen heap]
“um… the music i listened to was kind of hodge-podge of what my brother listened to – i’m not going to say anything bad about what my brother used to listen to, ’cause he’s in the audience as well – but it involved men wearing spandex, and kind of really spiky hair. so people like white snake i think he listened to. sorry, giles. i ended up hearing that kind of by default, but i loved actually, my first kind of p-ssionate music that i was really into was drum and b-ss, and i loved going raving and i loved drum and b-ss. and there was this club in london called the paradise club, wasn’t it, maisie?”

[audience member 5]
“yay!”

[imogen heap]
“yay! um… we used to go down there and dance to prodigy and stuff and we thought we were really cool. i used to wear like really outrageous clothes – really? but, like, really silly, like, white dungarees with like big curly things in my hair that kind of… yeah. okay. anybody else?”

“when you played liberace’s piano did it feel like it instilled some magical powers?”

[imogen heap]
“oh! ta-da! yes! it was an amazing piano. i played this piano, which is the question, if you won the tickets from my website you had to answer this question which was ‘what- whose piano did i play in l.a. when i did this show there?’ and the answer was liberace’s. and there was this amazing kind of mirrored piano, just so fantastic it looked so fantastic. and it was great, i really enjoyed it. it was huge and just felt very powerful playing liberace’s piano. not anywhere near as good as he used to play it. oh, there’s a hair of mine. anyone want it? no, not really. anyway one more question and then one more song. i feel like i want to go to the back because i’ve been ignoring them.”

[audience member 7]
“hamish!”

[imogen heap]
“h-llo, darling!”

[audience member 7]
“hamish has got a question”

[imogen heap]
“oh, hamish has got- okay, ask it. we’re just signing… oh, go on, ask. i bet he’s gonna ask me a really embarr-ssing one.”

[audience member 8]
“what do you think about the spice girls reunion?”

[imogen heap]
“what?! hamish! erm… well, that’s a good question because it just goes to show how little i’m kind of involved in that world, really. i didn’t even know that they were reunited. so, um, all powers to the spice girls people. i’m really happy. thank you, hamish, for showing me up.”
