It sounds like 9/8, or some compound, three-count time. Good song. |

Love this song and anything Imogen does really. i'll second that and thirds Yes!! SynthPop is what makes RP so damn great. I could listen to nothing but Imogen, Enya, Tori, Sinead, Annie, and Spandau Ballet *ALL DAY LONG* !!!!! |

Nice. I like.
But that near-continual click sounds like a CD skip. Annoying, it is.

I need to further investigate Imogen. Every time I hear her on RP I stop and listen. Time to make a purchase.

She's just a genius of a songwriter and blessed with an angelic voice. Simply beautiful.

Love Imogen. She has such an amazing voice. like some others have mentioned here her performance at Ronnie Scotts with Jeff Beck make the hairs stand up on the back of my neck. New Album soon I think/hope.........

Simply awesome. Tal Wilkenfeld's performance inspired my daughter to take up the bass... Go bunny go!!! You make your old dad proud.
Agreed, an amazing performance. Haven't thought of Ronnie Scott much since he died, but there was a time when I saw him, if not regularly, several times with his quartet in Gerrard Street - first saw him in Frith Street too. And that was half a century ago. |

The opening bit sounds a lot like Michael Hedges.

Reminds me of Enya (without the accent), but less annoyingly slickly over-produced. This has quite a bit more organic texture to it.

I am grateful to RP for introducing me to so many artists/songs I never would have found on my own. My iPod is filling up. And that's a good thing.  |
