Am I the only one who felt that the music overpowered her? could just be the recording though.

That was the most nervous I have ever seen Imogen. Much more nervous than on Letterman. She even says she's "feeling slightly nervous". The "Be Brave" comment from the audience was funny also.

I agree, she seemed really unsure. I think all she needed was more time to prepare.

I'm quite suprised she would offer to play any song. Wow, that's confidence! You never know what might be requested, and some requests could be near impossible to fulfill

She is so lucky that someone didn't request some type of opera in another language. That would of been tough to pull off! But then I don't think anyone would of been that mean.

Let me clarify...I am an Immi fan before a Tori fan at this point in my life (and have been for the last decade). I DO NOT think that Tori's song book is so sacred that it should never be covered. I do like two or three songs from her 'Strange Little Girls' album (and several of her b-side covers).

However, I think that Immi's cover of 'Cornflake Girl' the other night was just plain rotten. Again, I will say I think the idea was brilliant! However the end result left me wanting something more...no, not more...something different!

And again I will say (to anyone who was upset by my previous comment) that this is the FIRST song I have ever heard Immi do that I really dislike. Not because it's Tori and I am some sort of freak who thinks Tori's work should never be covered. Not because I don't love Imogen. Not because I don't like cover's in general (I am completely in love with Immi's cover of 'Hallelujah' and think it is better than Jeff Buckley's cover version, which for the record has been one of my favorite songs for almost twenty years).

It just did not work for me. At all. Again, just my opinion and by no means does this mean I like or dislike Imogen Heap anymore than I did a week, month, year or decade ago. I eagerly await ANY new music from Immi (live, covered, remixed, etc.) and am anticipating the next time she does a cover in concert.

I love you all and I am happy that we are all provided a place to voice our opinions (however silly others may think they are), compliments, complaints and praises for the amazing body of work that the beautiful, intelligent and highly talented Imogen Heap releases. I am sorry if I offended anyone by my earlier post and can only say to them "it is MY opinion".

THIS. IS. AWESOME.

The reason Imogen did the song the way she did is probably because she wasn't that familiar with it. I mean, every person who knows Tori Amos knows Cornflake Girl, but there's a lot going on in that song and to learn it within a couple of spare hours is a bit tough.

GREAT cover. The winner should've asked her to do Nine Inch Nails' "The Perfect Drug" or something because lord knows Trent will never give us that live. Razz

The song isn't musically very complex or difficult to learn, though Tori Amos's piano style is more 'jazzy' than Immi's. I guess Immi had a choice of playing it just with piano, in which case she would be competing with Tori Amos's own performances, or doing it a completely different way. Needless to say she chose the latter. I don't think the result is wonderful, but it is better than just doing a weak impersonation.

...incidentally, on looking at the lyrics again, I wonder if the line usually given as 'peel out the watchword' should really be 'peal out the watchword'? 'Peal', as in a peal of bells or laughter, might make marginally better sense. I don't know what the 'official' lyric sheet says, but they are often wrong anyway. Which reminds me, are we ever going to get a final corrected set of lyrics for Ellipse?

Added: I can answer my own question on the 'peel out' line: it should definitely be 'peal out'. 'Peal out the watchword' is actually a quotation from an old hymn: see here http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/1957253

DavidB is correct: Cornflake Girl is not difficult to play. It is in an easy key signature, and does not present any real technical challenge. I enjoy listening to the bass on Cornflake Girl. That guy is good.

I also concur that it is better to try to do something different rather than just replicate the original arrangement. So, I won't give Immi's performance the um, "yo heave ho"...

I also agree with this, and I found it hard to hear the words. The vast majority of fan-recorded clips on YouTube sound poor to me. I have also listened to YouTube clips of concerts I have been at and noticed the sound on those clips was inferior to what I heard at the concert. That is one reason I really liked the Billboard concert. The sound was quite good on that live streaming concert.

DavidB wrote:

Good catch. There are a lot of religious references in Tori's music.

As an aside, there was a thread here on iBabble concerning songs that we would enjoy hearing Imogen cover. It spans quite a range of material.

I like the arrangement. Imogen's vocal range is different than Tori's, so that the high part of the chorus flips Immi into the difficult (i.e. out of tune) part of her head voice.

As a matter of interest, the lyric sheet with Tori Amos's CD gives the lyric as 'peel out', not 'peal out'. If it is intended as a quote from the hymn (which it surely is, especially as Tori comes from a church family), this is wrong. Either (a) Tori Amos remembered the line but misspelled it, or (b) someone else compiled the lyric sheet from hearing and misspelled it. It seems to be a surprisingly common practice for artists to leave it to someone else to compile their lyric sheets.

I would put forward another theory. Tori is fond of word play in her songs. An example would be the use of "blank-ettes" (playing with the pronunciation of "blankets") in the song "Bells For Her" which she uses to mean "vapid-girls." I think she intentionally used the word "peel" (although I am SURE she was aware it was supposed to be peal, having grown up the daughter of a methodist minister) because this is a a song about women betraying women. So if the "watchword" is "loyalty" or "sisterhood" then it has been "peeled" out of the situation. Removed like a scab or dry skin. So instead of "pealing" out the watchword, proclaiming it to all and sundry, it has been "peeled" out, leaving an absence. Just my two cents...

Wow Tómas, that is a quite an extrapolation! I have seen many typos and/or spelling mistakes in lyrics from authoritative sources (including Imogen's lyrics), which for the most part, seem unintentional. Does Tori use double-entendre a lot in her lyrics? Interesting...

I wouldn't say she uses it a lot, but enough to recognize it when its more than just a typo lol. I remember reading a quote by her discussing this particular line but I can't seem to find it now. But based on what I've read about the "translation" of this particular tune, I would say that she meant to use "peel" rather than "peal" if not exactly for the reasons I mentioned, then something fairly close. There is a site:

http://www.yessaid.com

which has an exhaustive record of quotes from Tori in regards to many of her songs from Little Earthquakes up to The Beekeeper. She uses a LOT of metaphor, "semantic reassignment" (for lack of a better term) and archetype in her writing. It makes teasing out the meaning very interesting!!

Well, maybe, but sometimes, to paraphrase Freud, a spelling mistake is just a spelling mistake. I remember a David Bowie lyric sheet where 'chameleon' was spelled 'camelion', and I suppose you could argue that for some obscure reason he was trying to evoke a combination of camel and lion - but it would be a bit of a stretch.

There's a technical term for misheard lyrics: Mondegreens. It comes from a folk song with the (correct) line 'laid him on the green' which someone misheard as 'Lady Mondegreen'. If you look up 'Mondegreen' there are a bunch of good ones, like Jimi Hendrix's Purple Haze 'excuse me while I kiss this guy'.

'Rabbi' for 'rabbit' is a good one, but it really does sound like 'Rabbi'!

Thanks David: I had seen the term "Mondegreens" before, but didn't know the provenance. That Hendrix example is probably the best known. Another famous example with a similar confusion ("sky" and "guy") is this Deep Purple lyric:

"Smoke on the water. A fire in the sky."

"Slow walking Walter. The fire engine guy." Very Happy

Tómas you are right. Some of these seem more logical than the actual lyrics, at least at first glance. I'm going to start a thread about misheard lyrics in Imogen's music. I'm sure there are some funny ones out there...

Two of my favorites so far are:

Should be: "You make me feel like a natural woman.." - Aretha Franklin

And

"A gay pair of guys put up a parking lot..."
Should be: "they paved paradise and put up a parking lot." - Joni Mitchell

And one of my own from when I was too young to know any different..

Elton John: "She's got electric boots, a mohair suit, you know I read it in a magazine.."
Tómmy (age 6/7): "She's got electric boobs, her mom has 2, you know its better than a pack of hyenas..."

And I couldn't help adding one more. This one happened while my fellow pianists and I were practising "Womanizer" by Britney Spears to perform for our show:

The line is: "Boy don't try to front, I-I know just-just what you are..."
What I thought my friend sang: "Boy vagina front..."

And now that's all I can hear anytime I hear this song. It won't go away...lol.

I also could not understand that "Benny and the Jets" lyric and was quite surprised to see what the actual lyric was when I looked it up. Unfortunately, I can't remember what I thought it was (I'm sure nothing as odd as what you mentioned!).

I adore it!

AND I've been a Tori fan longer than an Immi fan.

In fact, the first time I heard Immi was iMegaphone which I remember saying to myself sounded "like a much edgier Tori" . . .

I love this interpretation for all of its creativity and all of its imperfections. I wish I'd had the money, I would have loved to have Immi do an Enya song just to annoy everyone. Razz

Hey, good thing this thread was brought back. I just realized that I had the most hilarious misheard lyric in a Tori Amos song. In "Mother" at the end of the bridge section, I shit you not, this is what I always heard until I looked up the lyrics:

It's across the sky, and a-
cross my heart, and I
cross my legs o'er my....
cunt

For those of you who don't know, it's not "o'er my cunt", it's "oh my God".... Embarassed

I'm still not much the wiser. And they say Immi's songs are obscure!

I've just come out of a pretty lengthy Tori Amos phase. Honestly, none of her music makes any sense xD I'm not saying it's bad, and she's most definitely talented, but what I get from her lyrics are that they're more subconcious images than literal meanings. And I've never heard Tori say anything coherent in an interview, especially about her mushic.

Imogen Heap covering Tori Amos. Have sweeter words ever been uttered?

Immi was understandably nervous. Imagine the shoe on the other foot. I'm thinking Tori would have likely been mighty nervous if she undertook to cover a beloved Immi song live and fairly 'cold' in the middle of a world tour...
Cool

I thought she did great. She didn't try to copy TA, but tried to bring a new interpretation to the song, and her vocals were pretty. I liked the drums, too. But then, I'm not a huge TA fan; I like some of her stuff but listening to her for too long kind of wears me out or something... It makes me work too hard maybe? Angst-fatigue? I dunno.

Here is an Australian reviewer's discussion about Tori/Immi and the controversy about the performance. (Sorry if this link was already posted upthread.)

http://www.allvoices.com/contributed-news/5497104-imogen-heap-delves-into-tori-amos-cornflake-girl

I found the Wiki entry on "Cornflake Girl" interesting, and it mentions Immi's cover. (Again, sorry if this has already been linked earlier.)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornflake_Girl

Bottom line for me on the "Corflake Girl" cover: Imogen Heap is a brave, innovative, creative world citizen, and this cover she performed raised $4000 for a great cause. Very Happy

That's our Immi!

No, it wasn't one of the charity improvs, for one thing, it isn't exactly an improvisation, it is an unique arrangement of Tori's song. However it was performed for charity. There was an auction for charity and Imogen said she would either cook for whoever won, or have dinner with them, and they would also pick a song for her to perform live.

And here is the post from the winner of that charity auction who picked the song "Cornflake Girl" for Immi to perform.

Well, I really wish I had known this forum existed before I had to pick the song -- I definitely would've solicited opinions, as I had a really tough time deciding what to request. I've been to her website a dozen times in the last few years, and just never noticed the link. I facepalm'd when I saw the "Fantasy Setlist" topic.

In the end, I decided to ask her to sing a cover rather than one of her own because I thought it would be fun and different and the subset of her fans that are also Tori fans would get a big kick out of it.
