imogen heap

I forgot to tell you how my last weekend was.
Well, there's not much to tell actually. The only thing worth mentioning is the concert I attended on friday.
I managed to convince Iason to get a ticket and come with me - concerts are always better when you can share them with somebody else -, so we went to see the fantastic Imogen Heap perform live.



All The OC fans know her. She's kind of a reference - 3 of her songs have played on the soundtrack (during crucial moments), and after listening to her 'Goodnight and Go' on the show for the first time, it quickly became one of my favourites.
Beside having an unique voice (she's barely open her mouth, we know it's Imogen), she has the presence and charisma any singer/songwriter/artist should have. The way she makes music while we're there - she's alone on the stage, playing with her electronical gadgets and making the music we know and love from the studio version sound better and deeper - it's simply amazing and refreshing.
And then she interacts with the audience - she talks a lot (even most of the times mumbling to herself), she laughs, she gets really surprised yet happy that the audience is singing along (she actually stopped mid-song to say 'Oh my God! It's so weird 'cause you actually know the words!!).

She's just lovely!
