Right then...I've begun the 3rd album (the follow-up to 'Speak For Yourself'). I'm going to write a more frequent blog as I did with the last one so you can keep an eye on me and make sure I'm not slacking! I wonder how it's gonna turn out? How exciting! You're very welcome to comment but please don't ask me questions on here or i'll never get any work done. You can email me with any questions you have and every month we'll pick 20 from the virtual 'hat' and post them. Send your questions to: [email protected]

Much much more to come! Love, fluv x i x Wheeeeee!!!

And back again

hi ya peeps...



this is a photo i took on my way back home from the Thames Barrier on Sunday night. A big Orange Sun decended from the clouds to wrap it up beautifully.

So as you can see..I made it. Did 450km by the end of it. Sounds impressive but it was over 9 days and I was taking it nice and slow. Loads of walking in the evenings too, usually past a good old english country pub, it was great...hope you enjoyed my moblog....it's a readymade photo album...I like..

Bit gutted to see that none of my headers to the photos came up. hmm...You may have been scratching your heads at a few of those piccies...anyway...

I'm really aware of all the pollution in London after all that lush country air. Really noticing the sounds of the city too. the constant background hum of forever moving traffic...

Back in the studio today. Had a request while i was away for a new song for a TV program/ poss song for an album they're making for it. I was working on that. Got something over the states before the end of their day...we shall see. It's not exactly what they asked for but I wanted to do what I wanted to do...hopefully they'll find a home for it...All very secretive isn't it!

And that is about it for today! I'm sleepy eyed...just scoffed some toast and marmite. Been one of those can't stop to eat days for fear of losing the thread...

OOhhh....For those of you States wise...watch Six Feet Under on the 1st August...wait 'til the end and you should hear a little bit of me over the credits! It's that nursery rhyme thing I told you about. I wonder which version they'll use?

Lots of love....

meow...

oooh..and also saw Shrek 2 while I away...so funny! I love the puss in boots hairball bit! I laughed my socks off!
I did something really embarressing at the end of the flm. I couldn't contain myself. I turned to the person next to me and said "this is me! I'm singing this!!" He was like yeah right...i felt a bit of a twat...

Never mind...

I was so over the moon to hear to hear it on the big screen!

more of that please...

OK...really going now...

love love

Hi Immi!
So glad you're back! And happy to hear that you had such an awesome time. The pictures were really nice...I really wish I was able to see and experience everything, but living in the States, that makes it a bit harder!
That's so great, I always watch Six Feet Under, it's one of my favorite shows...I can't wait to hear your stuff on the show, I'm so excited!
And don't feel bad about the guy at the movie, he just did't recognize you. Soon your next album will come out and you'll be internationally known by all!
Then, you'll be able to buy that flat on the lake in the country you want too!
Cheers!

So he obviously wasn't a hero you'd hold out to the end of the night for. ;-)

Welcome back - glad you had a great time in the open air, Immi. Loved your pictures. I was amazed to see how much green space there is so close to London. I don't remember reading anything about your having a puncture - are tyres tougher these days?

It must be so cool to go see a movie and hear yourself singing the song at the end of it, even if the person next to you doesn't believe it. (It's a shame you are singing someone else's song and so are not eligible for an Oscar though). The song at the end of the movie sounded different than they way it sounds on the soundtrack CD though? I like the (longer?) version on the CD better I think.

Anthony Hopkins once told a story about going to see The Silence of the Lambs in a theatre, and there was a young couple sitting in the row behind him, who were clearly getting caught up in the horror of at all. Apparently at the end of the film he tapped one of them on the shoulder, put on his best Hannibal Lector voice, and asked "Did you enjoy the film?"
