Pay close attention
Don't listen to me from now
George'll be flying this one
And it's anyone's guess how he does
This is the right turn, wrong universe
And taking me in full bloom
Fireball careful with that there
See what you made me do?

I must be dreaming or
We're on to something
I must be dreaming for
I don't fall in love lawlessly
I must be dreaming or
Pinch me to waking
So undeniably yours
As long as I'm losing it so completely

Incendiary glance
Become and collide in me
Zoom in enhance
Hold while I go helplessly
Sky high, magic eye
Sugar rushing don't stop

I must be dreaming or
We're onto something
And just what you make me for?
I don't fall in love lawlessly
I must be dreaming or
Pinch me to waking
So undeniably yours
As long as I'm losing it so completely

Euphoria, I can't take, any more of it
Euphoria, I can't take, any more of it
I'm losing it

I must be dreaming or
We're onto something
And just what you make me for?
I don't fall in love lawlessly
I must be dreaming or
Pinch me to waking
So undeniably yours
As long as I'm losing
I'm losing it (I'm losing it)
I'm losing it (I'm losing it)
I must be dreaming (I'm losing it)
I must be dreaming (I'm losing it)
I must be dreaming

Amazing, outstanding talent, both in the studio & live. Wonderful, thought-provoking lyrical & aural landscapes. 10 tracks from this album in rotation here on RP.

Wake up young ones, I'm old and gray, a cool 57 years old. Imogean has become one of my fav's. How can anyone not be moved? She makes me feel 10 years younger, sometimes I even feel like a teenager.

I always think I should like her, but I really don't However, I heard one of her songs matched with a vid of Burning Man '09 and now every time I hear her I think of that, and it makes me happy.

Um, Frou Frou was Imogen Heap and Guy Sigswoth and they disbanded in 2003.

I give it a 2. It would be a 1 but the album cover is worth a point. It reminds me of the 'Adult Contemporary' music channels that my friends are gravitating toward .

I obviously think this is better than I used to think, judging from my previous rating. Can't say I find that completely undisturbing.

Picking up lot's of Yoko Kanno here, or maybe she picked up lots of Frou Frou...

Yoko's been doing this since the early 90's. I'm guessing Yoko beat her to it. (Still like Frou Frou, I've got this disc in my collection.)

I'm starting to be such an Imogen Heap fan, to me a dazzling beauty and that nonchalance and breathy quality really do it for me

Yeah, I think I like the Frou Frou music better than her branching off to go solo. IMHO
Posted 16 years ago by davyjrshort    [ Reply ]
Quite cute and pleasant. Didn\'t Bob and Peaches Geldof inflict the name \"Pixie Frou-frou\" on their undeserving daughter, or am I thinking of Celeb in Private Eye? Worth a six, anyway.

Sounds like a 14 year old girl's favorite song.

DIDO IN THE HOUSE!!!!!!!! i like some Dido but this is rather fluffy... :( me no likey either sorry. but i must say she does look good(hot)!!!!
Posted 17 years ago by xs9095    [ Reply ]
Is this the sound of a vacuum cleaner we hear a couple of times during the song !? Among the few things that get on my nerves with this song. Sorry, me no likey.

Woo-ha! On Tuesday, May 10th, I gave up on Weezer after the release of their 3rd dissappointing album in a row. While I was at Plan 9 music in Carytown, however, I looked for and found this disc, because I'd heard 4 tracks of the album here on RP. So glad I went to Plan 9 that day - this was their last copy. I LOVE this album...Play "The Dumbing Down of Love"!!!!

I liked this song to start with, but towards the end the voice started to grate on my nerves a little. Odd, because I'm a big fan of female vocal led bands.

I really, really like this group. Thanks to Bill and Rebecca for turning me on to them. The single, Breathe In, still gets me grooving (despite some complaints of too much rotation). The whole album is really good. Some of the most organic of this type of electronic music I've heard. Although I don't think this particular song is one of the stronger ones, I'm pleased to hear more from them in Paradise.
I love this song, I think it's strong. Otherwise, ditto.

Perhaps you wouldn't, but don't rule out the option for the rest of us. Personally, I think it's a great album. I don't consider this to be one of the stronger songs in the collection, but after listening to it for a couple of years, I have no regrets about purchasing the album. ;-)

No one would call this a great album. Pop. With the Heap voice that makes knees kind of quivery even when she sings platitudes with great energy.

Yo, let's here some TaTu! Is RP prejudiced against playing music from ATTRACTIVE lesbians?
If you're looking for visual titilation there are lot's of websites for that. Might give you something to do with your hands better than posting "humor" like this.

This sounds just like that other song of thiers (Let Go or something)... and I mean just like it!! Oh-well... could be worse I guess ;)

I must be dreaming--because I could swear I just heard this about minutes ago... No, I'm awake, and whether or not I ever find out how this song got played almost twice in a row, i like this song!

Sounds sort of like a euro-dance version of Belle and Sebastian.

Refreshingly different - TaTu is a bit more hardcore (this song actually has a "happy" undertone, unlike most of TaTu's songs). It definitely classifies as eclectic intelligent rock, well done RP.

not necessarily a guy. a pervert, yes. i dislike when people use that excuse. "i'm a guy!" i know tons of women like that, too. as for the song - i think it's cute. it sounds nothing like tatu to me.

Although this is one of the "lighter" songs on this album, it's still nice hearing it on RP. I don't usually like Euro-pop, but I've fallen for Imogen and this whole CD. (And I second the motion to urge people to buy it through RP, for the benefit of us all.)
Really fabulous album. Can't get enough of her. Discovered Frou Frou here along with a bunch of other fab music. Thank you! Keep playing the great stuff!

Great song - even better album - purchased through RP so it was doubly beneficial! Definitely worth the money! Don't just buy the album - BUY THE ALBUM THROUGH RP!

Is the name a Cocteau Twins reference? (i.e. Frou Frou foxes in midsummer fires)

Agreed !!! Bought it after hearing a few cuts here. As for the comments: "sounds like Tatu (sp)" Mon Dieu ! Like some faux-lesbian hetero-exploitation gimmick ? Hardly !!! So what if it rhymes. Imogen has a lovely voice, and FrouFrou (name inspired by the rustle of Belle Epoque crinoline,Moulin Rouge dontcha know)is fun and sophisticated feminine Euro-pop, and I love it.
i agree with your agreeing lovely voice, sweet sound, great album.
