IAMX ft. Imogen Heap - My Secret Friend (Official Music Video)

[@elleroid3106]

How can she be so handsome?!

[@Cyprienroche]

Beautiful. "When I wrote it, I imagined some kind of psychotic brother/sister relationship, perhaps romantic, dependent, incestuous. I imagine her as the boy and me as the girl." -Chris Corner

[@superherom03]

kinda jealous of how adrodgynous they both are. amazing voices

[@nurtenyilmaz3]

After all this time, there - still - is no music video better than this! Their magic, their chemistry, their love. Their expressions. Their voices. AAaaaargghhhhh!!

[@ferhattekin1291]

You'r right ! mest oldum resmen

[@Beccalotte1021]

It's like two halves of the same soul singing to each other. A metaphysical relationship.

[@Ph4n_t0m]

Each one of them alone is amazing - but TOGETHER! - I don't know if I can handle it!

[@eartianwerewolf]

This song is a freakinf nuclear bomb of amazing

[@musicgeekgirl]

"When I wrote it, I imagined some kind of psychotic brother/sister relationship, perhaps romantic, dependent, incestuous. I imagine her as the boy and me as the girl." -Chris Corner This is the real interpretation of this song: an incestuous brother/sister relationship that is obviously not accepted by society so they decide to commit suicide together in order to stay in love with each other where no one can judge them.

[@ШаромиНульвалу]

Интересно,а я думал при прослушивании этой песни, что она о внутренних демонах и неком втором "Я". Например,когда мужчина не может определиться кто он,девушка или всё же мужчина?

[@ShickFap]

@@ШаромиНульвалу SPEAK UP, RUSSKI.

[@TessaKOCI]

​@@ShickFapvous n'avez pas à dire à quelqu'un en quelle langue s'exprimer. Paix sur vous

[@Beauty_Bot]

@@ShickFap The Russian-speaker said: "It’s interesting, but I thought when listening to this song that it was about internal demons and a certain second “I”. For example, when a man cannot decide who he is, a girl or a man?" The very polite French-speaker said: "you don't have to tell someone what language to speak in. Peace on you." Watching people argue over a 14 year old song in three different languages on the internet for no reason. What a time to be alive.

[@ОксанаМихеенко]

Она прекрасна.

[@licyakathleenandrade5689]

they should make an album together, it would be epic!

[@mewichigothe1st]

Their voices compliment each other so perfectly.

[@pherromerov6172]

Their voices are absolutely perfect together.

[@violetamet]

i cant lie, i always thought it was a metaphor of being trans and suffering from dysphoria, and how complicated one's identity can get, and how one may just suffer from their own self hatred, given how the people around them wont accept them for their identity. i also thought of just gender in general, such as non-binary, genderfluid, etc. but i get it tho. while i may stick to my original idea, i can see that this song may be interpreted differently, even if there is an official explanation for it. songs a banger.

[@tatiana6501]

Уже который год влюблена в эту песню и только сейчас руки дошли до клипа. И Божемой!!! Я влюбилась ещё сильнее, если такое вообще возможно♥♥♥

[@touchandgod]

Her scream, his spin, the harlequin androgyny; I wouldn't mind seeing this movie length and it's great as is.

[@annalipa6198]

Потрясающая песня о запретной любви Вот уже сколько лет не перестаёт будоражить 💔 Amazing song about borbidden love. Keeps touching my heart for so many years

[@doriflowers6434]

а можете обьяснить смысл песни? почему по итогу девушка костюме умирает? я подумала.что здесь о чем- то связанным с трансгендерностью.а не запретной любовью .но мне интересно послушать вас

[@annalipa6198]

@@doriflowers6434 сам Крис давал комментарии по поводу клипа. Что клип о невозможности любви между братом и сестрой, например. Он об инцесте. При прослушивании песни у меня конечно таких спуцифических ассоциаций не возникало, но просто о невозможных , несбыточных отношениях

[@PixelSprouts]

I remember growing up loving both artists so much. I remember thinking how amazing they would sound together and then literally the next day i discoverd this song. I was so shocked and became obsessed with this song.

[@reallostblueboy]

Man, Chris looks so good in a dress, and Imogen looks so good in a suit 😍

[@chelseamullins9867]

I'm obsessed with this

[@Luana-im5jh]

we're two

[@doritostaemin7717]

me too

[@katemccormick9036]

Their voices sound so haunting together, I love it. I had an Iamx phase when I was in middle school lol

[@ghostbait1419]

She looks like she could be a grim reaper and thats amazing,

[@StarParticleShade]

This song is haunting... and it makes me think of someone grappling with a serious addiction and who is still denying it....

[@Skadiusha6]

Swapping gender (swapping minds?) No gender, no swapping. No society directives. No artificial patterns Fluidity. Freedom. My secret friend (is my own individuality). "So we can swim forever".

[@greannysmith]

There's a problem... The song ends...

[@готочка]

у меян она в плейлисте на повторе

[@greannysmith]

​@@готочка❤

[@mewmewkirby]

To me, this song represents every person's deepest secrets and/or feelings. In my opinion, the secret friend is a symbol of a person's guilt or secret that they hide behind bars. It may even represent the deepest desires or fears that are generally not acceptable in "normal" society. Just my opinion :3

[@capriciousvirtuosity8160]

My two favourite artists working together, this is absolutely fantastic

[@erenkutluk]

I was like : Can marry with both of them at the same time ???

[@polinak5887]

аааа, это офигенно, почему я не слышала и не видела этого раньше?...

[@MizunoSenshi]

IMHO this is Immy's best collaboration out of the others I know (Blue October, Temposhark, John Hopkins). Here, her voice really stands out and I think she's right in her element. The song's intriguing, misterious, pure art. The video, marvelous, excellent work by Chris Corner.

[@redmattuk]

100000 points for knowing who tf temposhark are! My favourite band when considering quality: popularity ratio

[@ProxyVoiid]

Ever since this song came out, the context to my secret friend was death. It was sad because I don’t believe sewerslide is the answer, it’s just sad I’m back here with the same feelings 10 years later… but I’m also glad to know… my secret friend is technically always there for me so I should push forward and I will always be happy to invite my secret friend into my life when it comes.

[@ninevahkathreptis196]

how did I just find this song?!?!?!?!?! its amazing omg, excuse me as I become obsessed

[@d.c.3141]

How did I miss this for, like, 5 years?

[@ninevahkathreptis196]

Dylan Cutler haha five years ago i was nine :3 i didnt really care about music then :P

[@hackeritalics]

This is the first I've heard this.. Holy shit, my mind has blown. lol What a dream pairing of artists.

[@sLePpInG]

I loved when she threw that chair and the sound of her shout came in the middle of the song. great touch.

[@Gloominusdm]

I never really noticed the resemblance, but they could pass for each other!!

[@lisazoria2709]

If I were her, I'd dress like that pretty much everyday. She looks so good in a suit and glasses! 😍

[@abrylfrank1658]

Two of my favorite artists working together. I'm dying.

[@CaramidaCaramizie]

I love that short segment where they're singing to each other through the "fence"

[@mewgagafreak]

Heap makes a freakishly attractive male 0//-//0

[@ErienRA]

imogen is super attractive here. she also reminds me of brendon urie... hehe?

[@ADevilFromHeaven]

First IAMX song I heard. Still love it. And IAMX. Didnt really start listen to Imogen heap as much though.

[@DivineAska]

My secret friend Oh, take me to the river My secret friend So we can swim forever You have loved, you were not alone You have braved the weather When the storm cut you to the bone There was always shelter My secret friend I'll take you to the river My secret friend So we can swim forever In your skin to die a little death This time there's no code word When everyday frays in hollow ends Dream sweet love subversive My secret friend Oh, take me to the river My secret friend So we can swim forever Break my deepest promise Break my deepest promise Break my deepest Break my deepest promise Break my deepest promise Break my deepest Break my deepest promise Break my deepest promise Break my deepest My secret friend Oh, take me to the river My secret friend So we can swim forever

[@kappitolsh5522]

how can everything in this video (including Imogen, she's a goddess) be so DARN BEAUTIFUL AND AESTHETICALLY PLEASING I'M REWATCHING IT FOR LIKE 1228272837 TIME AND I THINK I WON'T BE ABLE TO STOP ANYTIME SOON HELPME

[@abbyll]

OMG. I just discovered this. I never heard of IAMX before. And now I watched all the videos and i´m so mesmerized.. .And then i saw there is a concert in my near on the 8th and I dont know anything about IAMX... And i never went to a concert but I´d love to see the show.

[@ДимаКолий]

Частенько слушаю перед сном

[@monsieurmadeleine5814]

Is it wrong I think she's very attractive dressed as a male?

[@SuddenlyRainbow]

Glad I'm not the only one

[@citychick11895]

It's not :)

[@ABLE10]

when I first saw this clip I thought she was a hot dude lol xD I didn't know who Imogen Heap was at the time lol xD

[@TheStanishStudios]

You are not alone

[@romanabereneth5683]

+☩ Monsieur Madeleine ☩ super hot

[@DavidB5501]

Fun fact about the lyrics: the phrase 'to die a little death' probably alludes to the French expression 'la petite mort' - meaning orgasm.

[@STURMWESKERv12]

Amazing Song

[@тыкто-и7с]

[@ssgf2760]

there is no music video better than this, it's absolutely fantastic and amazing. the way they look, sing and move...

[@MizunoSenshi]

This video is perfect and powerfull in so many ways I can't describe it... I LOVE so much this song, so languid, mysterious, yet so inviting to listen it over and over... Chris & Immi did an AMAZING AMAZING job!!!

[@CookTrisenger]

После этого клипа стал их фаном. Ну очень уж он мне понравился своим стилем, постановкой и песней.

[@CookTrisenger]

Я тут снова. 22год...

[@JujYFru1T]

There are no words for how much I love this video. One of my greatest wishes is that they'll collaborate again someday.

[@zlatickoxt]

I never thought I'd be able to watch a music video over and over again but this is really awesome. I love the oddness of it. Very original and artistic.

[@Distantoff]

Давненько не слышал настолько шикарных песен.

[@ロツェンコディマプ]

Вот и повод переслушать )

[@kaylacat]

вот опять повод переслушать)

[@MisuMiy]

И вот ещё повод переслушать

[@nurtenyilmaz3]

This is more real to me than the world out there.. Thank you Mr. X

[@wenseaguewell280]

This is a creepy song in a positive way and overall amazing.

[@biuroregionalneoriflame2752]

[@devilman7670]

Damn...Ive been an imogen heap fan since i was a teenager and I never heard this until now

[@DanVicentini]

I just don't know what to say about this song, genius! I f*cking love it

[@hobbylessemo6744]

Das drückt meine ganzen Gefühle aus...und die Sehnsucht verstärkt sich- danke xD aber echt ein wunderschöner Song 💜💚

[@Juliannarox]

Imogen resembles my dream man in this video. Imogen is so awesome! i love how she just seems to loom over Chris! haha Chris is hilarious!

[@michaelarae95]

I think I have watched this video 20 times tonight and I still cannot get over how extrememly amazing it is... IAMX u r great.... Imogen... I Love Your Voice. And you did excellent in this video I hope you know that... Chris so did you. This is byfar my most fav music vid ever!!!!!!!!

[@damonalbongo9602]

Chris, you're a very pretty girl.

[@musicmary1331]

this video is genius

[@tylermabry6881]

I think it's a little too odd and circumstantial how similar they look. Secret relation?

[@REALMEZRA]

Everything you guys make, is beautiful.

[@MsCalypsoStarlight]

Epic on all fronts.

[@Camiegum]

I WAS SEARCHING FOR IT FOR MY LIFE

[@Archimedes-v2o]

My two favorite artists oh my god

[@Auggieautomne]

Despite the twisted and somber connotations of this song, it's a beautiful love song!

[@nurtenyilmaz3]

my fav male musician collaboration with my fav female musician.. I love love love it!!

[@johannazulkifli4]

my gggaawwwdd...I am soo in love with this song

[@aikyoinc.188]

IAMX AND Imogen Heap? Double greatness.

[@maocharlisme]

Imogen Heap's voice is so hypnotically relaxing 💛💜

[@Sunshy82]

Disturbingly beautiful!!! Makes me feel/think a lot of different things. But that's the goal with IAMX, always open for interpretation!!!! Amazing imagery, highly artistic....I have to say I'm very impressed with Chris's attempt at directing on this vid!!! Did not disappoint!!!!

[@Valenya23]

Just saw IAMX in Austin TX. Best show ever. They played this song and my heart jumped out of my chest. He didn't even need Imogen, which surprised the hell out of me! I truly love her part. CC I love your art, it makes me weep. Thank you always. xxxxXXxxxx

[@kkuniunbox]

Really wonderful video. Can't stop watching it over and over *____* Amaizing voices, minds, faces, clothes, ideas........................

[@Malindafox]

Imogen does songs with so many amazing artists gosh i love her music so much and this song is great

[@rheabruen]

that awkward moment when you didn't pay any attention to the "random asian businessman," so you didn't realise it was imogen until about half way into the video 😅

[@Juliannarox]

I remember when this video first came out. I couldn't get over how amazing this video is. Three and a half years later, and I still think the exact same. I love those two, they are just so damn good together.

[@disko.kommando]

Damn this is amazing!!

[@ADevilFromHeaven]

I wish Chris would crossdress more. He's such a beautiful woman here. :) And Imogen is a beautiful man. :)

[@churchoftheholyduck3339]

God this video still hits after all these years

[@Crywithme89]

That is just life. After the storm comes a great calmness. Be brave !

[@JaheiraCZ]

One of the most beautiful things I´ve ever heard. I think this stuff can be metaphor too. About our lives, about our desires, which we want to fulfil. Other song says: "Too far gone to see the light". But thanks IAMX. In his music is something special, something which gives me hope :-)

[@smileygirl11186]

i really love their voices and that genre of music they are into love them! ;D

[@linexi]

i love chris corner so much. oh my goood

[@nurtenyilmaz3]

I watched this 3 times.. Then I realised that the "boy" is a girl.. Then I watched it 30 times.. Damn I just can't stop pressing the replay button!

[@FadedSilkandGhosts]

I

[@asurainlove]

madly beautiful song 💔

[@kali4good]

and i love how they switch genders it's kind of like them embracing and acknowledging their androgynous beings. lovely and creative. ORDINARY IS SOO OVERRATED. they are here to make unique something to embrace

[@Ipoetize]

Standing on a Chair and Screaming, Brilliant !!!

[@Tokio1157]

😂😂😂люблю эту песню уже много лет)) Клип местами забавный. Оператор, конечно, постарался

[@ABCDEFGHI3295]

Chris is too attractive like that...

[@anglopunk]

You know a piece of film is beautiful if every single second and frame could be its own stand-alone piece of art. Chris Corner definitely has a director's eye.

[@tacosabroso6776]

Esta música es un orgasmo para tus oídos ( ･ิω･ิ)

[@arol101]

Born in the middle of the 70's - just like me - and plunged into the XXI. Century as one of the greatest musical genious

[@LiteraryCat]

Oh my gosh, this is lovely. I mean, in an artsy way. I can't believe this is the first time I've heard this song. Imogen rocks my socks. Nice job. :)

[@FadedSilkandGhosts]

I haven't loved a song this much in years.

[@AcrophobicBeeFearer]

Love this song. So creepy yet so good at the same time.

[@MizunoSenshi]

Imogen's voice go so well with this song of IAMX. I'm a fan of Immy and now I'll start listening to IAMX music! =) This song is so great I can't even find words to describe it! xD

[@Raddeh]

This song is hauntingly lovely.

[@ajjames6613]

such a beautiful song.
