She's always so nervous when she has to speak....but she performs so brilliantly....gotta love the human being in her

[@NishHammer]

Never scene Imogen so nervous before a performance before, I became nervous for her like I was there. Her music is so honest and original, love her!

[@MyTechnicolorChicken]

I am happy that Imogen exists out there making beautiful music like this.

[@WilliamOniell]

I'm not the only one who died a little to see such a beautiful person nervous, right?

[@sealevelbear]

She always has the best hair.

[@NishHammer]

Maybe its just us, I think more so that she is dealing with a not so responsive audience, and people that are not Heap fans. She works so hard, I hope to see her soon. Hope she doesn't burn herself out!

[@KravMagoo]

Some people say that she seems nervous. It's not that she's nervous...it's that she thinks so fast that trying to catch everything pouring out of her mind is like trying to catch Niagra in a tin cup--she's trying to move the cup back and forth but it just isn't possible.

[@KravMagoo]

One thing I notice is that every time I watch her perform, you can hear a pin drop. Her audiences don't make a sound. There's always mad respect for her genius and no one wants to miss a drop.

Why d'ya have to be so cute? impossible to ignore you

[@georgelloyd-owen8810]

+I'm a tornado such a beautiful song

[@jerrardthompson3449]

She's deep ......they dont make em like this no more

[@SourStrawberrys]

She seem like one of my classmates in my speech class. They got this nervous when they gave their speech. It is shocking to see her so nervous since we are used to seeing her talking alot to her fans and the audience.

I love this Version of the Song!

[@telchez2683]

She gets very quiet,as soon as she sits down,just glad i could hear the song,that's the main thing. A good one too.

[@iamrichlol]

She's so passionate. beautiful

[@beardedba]

Good to see Immi at Zeitgeist...she's got some of the best fans out there - great adds to make this song something very special!

[@Leveosaa]

i love this version of the song more than the original -- more clean and more passionate, and with that comes magic.

[@babblingmongoose]

Haha I love how when the camera zooms out you can see someone trying to surreptitiously record Immi on his iPhone... except you can see his phone screen in the video. Busted! :3

[@queuesnake704]

That was beautiful. So heartfelt and genuine.

[@SXI96]

beautiful

[@jmacs555]

Imogen, youre amazing as always! What a visionary

[@norwoodzomboy]

If there was one concept that was relayed to Imogene, it was hope.

[@ledzy11]

Wow great voice. Pretty too.

[@darrenirwin]

I Love Immi! awsome as usual

[@SourStrawberrys]

I totally agree, you would think she would be real nervous when she was directing the orchestra or during some of her other performances, but no.

[@DadeErbolo]

what's really funny is that she's gesticulating just like an italian...how nervous she must have been! she's so emotional.

[@fredlacroix6865]

beautiful creature

[@lim7lim]

i like this acoustic version better than the album

[@DanielNoest]

I quote Marillion: "where are the poets to breach the dawn of the sentimental mercenary?" The answer: Imogen Heap.

[@ninfa.estrada5281]

It's nice to see hanji zoe retired from killing titans to pursue a career in music 🙃

[@arlanakay76]

[@resources57]

Damn, I wish I was as productive as everyone else :(

[@jephbennett]

If you want to be more productive, stop wishing and make it happen. We can all strive towards our ideal selves by dedicating time each week to creativity, meditation, and compassion. As far as being "as productive as everyone else", don't compare your gifts and uniqueness to anyone else. Sometimes we are an amazing force like the wind...and sometimes we are individual leaves, without which the beauty of autumn could not exist. So fall with grace, and enjoy your ride on the breeze, until it's your time to ruffle, gust or storm.

Elle est belle en tabarnak

[@humblehobbit]

Oi dude, that's not very nice. How would you feel if someone said that about you? You sure don't sound like a very friendly person. Lighten up man.

[@JordynsPoetryPannier]

She always just has to get started and lose herself in her music.
