Do you remember how you felt when you first heard “Hide and Seek”? That feeling might just peek its head out again. “First Train Home,” the first single off Imogen Heap’s upcoming album, Ellipse, an electronic ethereal beauty. Imogen Heap fans couldn’t have asked for a better new single.
I can only imagine the greatness that will be Ellipse. Listen to “First Train Home” here

I was pleasantly surprised to love “First Train Home.”
When I first heard of Imogen Heap on the Garden State soundtrack (then Frou Frou), I was so amazed by how much I loved it!
Then, when I heard “Hide and Seek” I was less than impressed, it took me weeks to learn to appreciate it.
I thought her days of Frou Frou far outshone any Imogen Heap song until “First Train Home.”
Seriously, dude… you don’t need to give a stupid number score to everything. Words do suffice.
Love this. Really glad you featured Imogen too.
Seems like Imogen Heap singles are the most obnoxious like ‘Hide and Seek’ and ‘Goodnight and Go,’ and this one is no exception. Reserving judgment for the rest of the album.
Agreed with BravoJade on the pointless number score. Putting an arbitrary number at the end of the post does not give you any more cred.
It has me very excited for the new album!!!
I give BravoJade 22/100
haha, no tane. we should use words.
get out of here Bravojade. tyvm.
I am so excited for her CD to come out! Imogen Heap is so fantastic.
i just wish it was coming out sooner. can’t wait until aug. 25!!
Eh. Nothing to write home about.
