![]() Plague Songs (2006) [ larger cover art ] |
I'm not always like this
It's something I've become,
A terrible weakness
In my nature, in my blood.
Save me, oh save me, save me from myself
Before I hurt somebody else again.
Domino motion jump starts when we touch,
The blackout approaching
Here it comes now, wish me luck
It's all over, it's all over, it's all over in a flash
I can't remember,
What have I done now?
Go go faster wider
More more get it down ya
Dance dance take me over
Glittering cloud
Go go faster wider
More more get it down ya
Dance dance take me over
Glittering cloud
Oh, my head hurts
Oh dear oh dear.
It's all over the papers
On the TV, wagging tongues
The artist's impression looks just like me
only.. better
Don't blame me, don't maim me, I can't help what I am
Oh, Lord knows I've tried to.
Go go faster wider
More more get it down ya
Dance dance take me over
Glittering cloud

| seagonus | Posted: Jul 17, 2012 - 10:02 Amazing artist. . .one of my favourite female vocalists. . .top 20 for sure. This song is great. Playful, melodic, intricate. . .a gem. |

This is what you might define as an 'album track' - it doesn't show off anything new or give you much insight into her sheer amount of talent and unique performance style. Immi's first album, Speak for Yourself, was on constant rotation on my CD player for months, her second offering's pretty good too (you should still be able to listen in full on her SoundCloud). She's doing amazing things with collaborative composition engaging her fanbase to contribute ideas for new songs then developing those into fully-fledged themes. Not only that, she's a skilled polyinstrumentalist, producer and engineer - and a very talented singer with an earwormy voice and singing style to boot! I enjoy her music immensely, even if this song is only a 6/10 for me. This is very much the exception to the rule, please go and give her first album a try, it should be available everywhere decent (we7, spotify etc). |

He plays in a jazz band in LA and whenever I've seen him interviewed he comes off as a very intelligent, witty, cool guy. The kind of person you'd like to know. And oh yes, I do like this tune. |

| baltimorelovejoy (Philadelphia, PA) | Posted: Sep 22, 2008 - 10:36 Once I silence all the voices in my head telling me this is a really effete man singing, I must admit I quite like HER voice. At times though, it is a bit over-electronified. |
