    Being the Imogen obsessed person that I am I am so glad I discovered this video! Just wanted to add a few minor tweaks. Imogen has produced for a few other artists including IAMX and well known pop opera tenor Josh Groban (she co wrote and produced his song Now or Never for his album Awake) . She also did a nature documentary/album project with Love The Earth- this project was birthed from Imogen requesting through social media for videographers to submit nature footage, which was edited and then used as a springboard for Imogen’s Love the Earth composition. One of my favorite marked career moments of Imogen’s that I wish you had also mentioned was her Improv songs from her Ellipse tour. At each gig, Imogen polled the audience to create a completely improvised song- she asked what key the song would be in, what tempo, and what time signature. She would then flit around the stage and create a completely IMPROVISED song with these parameters; this was recorded live and put up for digital download for 24 hours after the show for purchase to benefit a local charity. All of those songs are now available to listen to thru her app per subscription. Theres also her song “Glittering Cloud” for the plague songs compilation project that was inspired by the biblical plagues described in the bible’s book of Exodus. Imogen did a songs inspired by the plague of locusts and wrote a song from the perspective of a locust in the glittering cloud that descended on Egypt. Finally, theres The Happy Song which Imogen created as a collaboration with a pediatric scientist who wanted to create a song that would make babies happy! Ugh I LOVE rhis video!!!!!!

    I was just thinking that a video like this was called for, I think most women in pop know they owe a lot to Imogen Heap, just like many electronic women artists who followed steps of bjork as well. But the public doesn't seem to know even though the influence is clearly there. She has such a incredible sound, it is pretty much peak of what Pop should sound like... Even recent artists seem to pull from her like Caroline Polachek.
    Edit: haha, you also did mention Caroline Polachek, btw great video!
