The Moment I Said It | Imogen Heap
The moment I said it
The moment I opened my mouth
Lead in your eyelids
Bulldozed the life out of me
I know what you’re thinking
But darling you’re not thinking straight
Suddenly things just happen we can’t explain
It’s not even light out
But you’ve somewhere to be
No hesitation
No I’ve never seen you like this
And I don’t like it
I don’t like it
I don’t like it at all
Just put back the car keys
Or somebody’s gonna get hurt
Who are you calling at this hour?
Sit down, come round, I need you now
We’ll work it all out together
But we’re getting nowhere tonight
Now sleep, I promise it’ll all seem better
Somehow in time
It’s not even light out
Suddenly (suddenly) oh, you’ve somewhere to be
With no hesitation
Oh, I’ve never seen you like this
You’re scaring me
You’re scaring me
You’re scaring me to death
Don’t…ohh (smash)
Please don’t…ohh (and a-[please] nother one)
Don’t…ohh (smash)
Please don’t…ohh (and a-[please] nother one)
I’m losing you, I’m losing you
Trust me on this one
I’ve got a bad feeling
Trust me on this one
You’re gonna throw it all away
With no hesitation
(Smash)

Voices as Instruments
I adore singers who can not only sing, but who use their voice as instruments as well. I’m not talking about harmonies or whatever. I’m talking about the random “Ooo” or “Aaah” or even breathing that is heard in the background. Examples of singers who do this are:
- Imogen Heap
- Marina and the Diamonds
- Utada Hikaru
These women have really unique voices (seriously check ‘em out) and they often use their voices as part of the songs. It’s really hard to explain, but it is one of my favorite things to hear in a song.
