- Hide and Seek. I adore this song; the emotion in her voice gets to me every time I hear it. Although I do not like Jason Derulo's addition to the song, I am glad that it has meant that more people have discovered this wonderful artist.
- Speeding Cars. Just spectacular... I cannot stop listening to it. Reminds me of how life is hard but you still gotta keep going. Also that your friends are there for you, and you gotta keep living!
- Headlock.

Bodies of water are sources of healing, escapes from what seems to be a fully discovered world on land. A place of contemplation, a means of travel, and even a source of danger, they can be just as fatally deceptive as they are welcoming. These are all the interpretations Heap took into account when personifying the Thames river on her turbulent si...
“It’s that time of year” only means one thing, and it’s not always as romantic as the gingerbread houses and mistletoe promise. There are countless Christmas songs for the memorial of pure bliss and blankets of white snow, but very few detail the emotional chaos that befall many of us during the holiday season. It’s a time for family affairs and ab...
Heap is skilled at articulating both the intoxication of love and its romantic tribulations. “Wait It Out” is about the latter, questioning the age-old notion that time heals all. After a breakup, there are always so many questions and concerns: How can I possibly go on? What if I never fall in love again? What am I to do with all this wretched hol...
Heap’s debut album seems to be the most angst-ridden and anger-filled of her releases. After its release, she was constantly compared to popular female rock singer peers like Tori Amos and Alanis Morissette. Though it may be hard to believe in this patriarchal day and age (ha!), Heap wasn’t inspired at the time by these empowered predecessors of th...
Sometimes being at a party can feel suffocating. An overcrowded room of people half-interested in small talk, their drunk bodies flinging against one another as they pass from conversation to conversation like dominoes: This is the precise feeling Heap paints on a standout from her third full-length Ellipse. The song’s immediacy and upbeat melody a...
In 1983 Brian Eno recorded music intended for the documentary film For All Mankind, initially titled Apollo. “An Ending (Ascent)” closes the ambient and country music inspired soundtrack and is a glowing, sacred amalgamation of high-pitched synths. It’s an apt sound for venturing into an unknown frontier, ready to behold undiscovered wonder. This q...
An affecting B-side about mental health, “Speeding Cars” details the all-too-familiar grips of depression and the suicidal ideations that tag along with it. It’s hard to hear the words “don’t kill yourself” in a pop song, but the rare clarity of such phrasing makes this song that much impactful and necessary. Heap articulates the commonality of dep...
Probably Frou Frou’s most popular song, “Let Go” is a cataclysmic escape, finding the splendor in upheaval. Its opening simmers with anticipation as eager violins and teetering synths usher us on an inconceivable adventure. It’s no surprise that this song was used to soundtrack the rekindling of a romance in Zach Braff’s Garden State. It’s a song t...
As cliche as it sounds, love is magical. It can be bewildering, astounding, warm, kind. All at once it is overwritten and underwritten. It can be painful and anxiety-provoking. On one of Heap’s greatest achievements, new love is all of these things. The heart sinks and our mind runs over itself a million times just at the hint of a smile and the pr...
“Hide And Seek” is Imogen Heap’s most devastating and haunting track to date. Whether heard via a choice sync by a music supervisor or a chance encounter over a streaming service, the song lingers for days or even years. Many speculate that “Hide And Seek” details the separation of Heap’s parents when she was 12. However, the songwriter has never c...
