Imogen Heap - Tiny Human Lyrics
Oh my tiny human
At 05:08 you break me apart again
The space-time continuum
Buckles and bends around your every twist and turn
You came crashing in on one day
Crazy beautiful you
Blind me like the dawn
After ashes fell on Pompeii
Crazy beautiful you
A miracle, a mystery
And one short stop away
From joy to misery
When the night becomes day
You make a pin-cushion out of me
And you can thank me later, babe (if I'm alive)
How long can one live without sleep?
Still I can't stand to imagine
Life without...
You came crashing in on one day
Crazy beautiful you
Blind me like the dawn
After ashes fell on Pompeii
Crazy bright beautiful you
Suddenly propelled
So many light years from bliss
And completely unprepared
How can anyone deserve this?
I've tried, I've tried all the tricks in the book, I’m at my wits end
Now look here what do you want from me!?
I can barely remember life before...
You came crashing in on one day
Crazy beautiful you
From the ashes of Pompeii
To fireworks and champagne
Crazy beautiful you
You little devil, you
Oh I love you so much
It's the hardest thing I've ever done
But you're so worth it
Yes you are
Yes you are
You little devil, you

I love this.....so fucking much
Wonderful ... again :-)
Such an addictive melody. A perfect explanation of life after bearing lives. Thank you.
This song knows my life. Just mad that I’m still angry in it’s own since, but...it’s the unknown
Beautiful! Thank you.
Only Imogen heap.
When I see a new song in my feed, I instantly know what I will hear: emotion in fluid musical form. Healing ebbs and flows, seeping through the cracks of a battered soul.
You are An Instrument of Beauty Imogen!
Im Glad I Found you!
Never bored to Immi.. Great music
I just noticed the little smile she has when she sings/lip syncs to that part at the end, "I love you so much."
I'm crying real tears.
One of the most beautiful human beings on earth. You don't even know me and you have a place in my heart.
The idea of pregnancy and parenthood has always felt so alien to me, like it is nothing I could ever want as a goal in life, but I feel like this song has conveyed to me the precise emotions that parenthood would bring to a human, like this explains to me the beauty of the thing. This is absolutely fantastic. Imogen is an artist like no one else.
Immi Love!
I love just how this is about motherly love...
I love this song forever. When I first heard it I loved it. Then I got pregnant with my son and this turned into a whole different thing for me. It makes me cry every time. It’s more than amazing. It’s everything I’ve felt having him for the last 6 months. He’s my world. Through all the hard times, no sleep, screaming, I wouldn’t change it for anything. He’s an angel and I never want to remember my life before him. I love you immi. “From the ashes of Pompeii to fireworks and champagne” couldn’t be worded more perfectly. ❤️
Goddess
💜
Just got this in a vinyl with the baby song! I also got it in a bundle with Speak For Yourself and Ellipse. Very rare to own on vinyl.
I discovered her when she wrote Clean with Taylor Swift (my queen) and this song is kinda good
Wow this is the first video i see of imogen heap. Mind blown! Love it
immy please come to Borneo..i love ur music, ur passion of this song had make me become a stronger mother...
This song wil always make me appreaciate by being a proud mother to my baby girl...thank u immy, this is a lovely song, i cried wit joyful heart...
i only wish the videoclip wasnt so... awkward
The fact this was created somewhat in conjunction with goddamn Sennheiser is a real incredible thing.
I just found her music recently and now wish I'd known about her for longer, see why they call you an inspiration :)
this woman brings more tears to my eyes then any other artist.
Her music speaks to the inner most parts of my soul. Pulling forth emotions I haven't felt in a long time. Makes me feel human and vulnerable. So much beauty and life put into sound.
Audrey Morgan So true. Only a few artists do that for me ♥️ Joel Porter is another for me.
I love you so much Imogen, for making such heart filling songs <3
It's like Enya with a twist I love her Kate Bush presence. An artist being an artist. Magical.
I love you forever, Immi! <3
As an 11 year old girl, i absolutely love this song. My friends think its a weird song but i am obsessed with this. I have listened to Imogen since a baby and will mever stop listening to her.
I can't even put it into words how much I love her and her music.
Anyone else only here because of Ethereum?
So incredible. Love how she is trying to push music forward through the blockchain. Ethereum brought me back here. Thanks Imogen and keep up the great work.
I love the reason for this song.
gods this is amazing i love it
OMG this is amazing!! Why am I only just discovering her music!! Well, thanks to Leah Mertz now I have :)
Beautiful song, I love her. I wonder if that water drip drove her nuts after a while?
I like how my boyfriend thinks of me as his 'tiny human' when we listen to this. Where is my five foot under crew?? 😂👐
The world desperately needs to experience this woman's music..... She is absolutely brilliant.
this deserves more views.
I love her, but this is garbage
Been thinking about the whole taking a shower in the video thing. Seems to me that for a lot of people showering and or bathing is kind of an escape. SO I am guessing Immi's idea for this was to kind of show maybe that this was her only place where she could get some "me" time and be able to reflect on this point in her life? IDK.
Yay for your family and little Scout! This is beyond beautiful. Thank you so much for your magical music!
Just hearing this for the first time...Lovely! x
[Verse 1]
Oh, my tiny human
At 05:08 you break me apart again
The space-time continuum
Buckles and bends around your every twist and turn
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I can barely remember
Life before...
[Chorus 1]
You came crashing in on that day
Crazy, beautiful you
Blind me like the dawn
After ashes fell on Pompeii
Crazy, beautiful you
[Verse 2]
A miracle, a mystery
And one short stop away
From joy to misery
When the night becomes day
I give you my every last ounce
You make a pin-cushion out of me
And you can thank me later, babe (if I'm alive)
How long can one live without sleep?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Still I can't stand to imagine
Life without....
[Chorus 2]
You came crashing in on that day
Crazy, beautiful you
Blind me like the dawn
After ashes fell on Pompeii
Crazy, bright, beautiful you
[Bridge]
Suddenly propelled
So many light years from bliss
And completely unprepared
How could anyone deserve this?
I've tried, I've tried all the tricks in the book, I’m at my wits end
Now, look here - what do you want from me!?
[Pre-Chorus 3]
I can barely remember
Life before, life before, life before...
[Chorus 3]
You came crashing in on that day
Crazy beautiful you
From the ashes of Pompeii
To fireworks and champagne
Crazy, beautiful you
[Outro]
You little devil, you
Oh, I love you so much
It's the hardest thing I've ever done
But you're so worth it
Yes you are
Yes you are
Yes you are
You little devil, you
Fuck this transvestite
Imogen is a woman and she gave birth to a beautiful baby girl 2 years ago. Gtfo.
As a dad. I agree
Still... beautiful. I'll be here next year. See you then.
Chills XD
Also this strikes me as a 'love song' of sorts, to her child.
She really is brilliant & sonically innovative.
This is my new jam! (I'm not a mom, but I've been surprised by a few tiny humans)
Mindblowed!
her voice. Her songs.. her music style.. its the stuff of fairy tales, myths and mythical creatures... and I freakin love it...
Is it just me or do the synths sound similar to "2-1"?
Geoff Pfoh-Gordon have you seen the videos she has posted about how she made all of those sounds in 2-1? It's crazy but a lot of those synths are actually instruments that she transmutes into crazy new sounds (like the "timpani" is actually her hitting the light boxes in her studio to get rid of flies)
Artsy thing this video.
Which.
Suits.
Me.
Fine.
Inspiring,as ever!
at 3:39 when she says "you little devil you" I instantly fell in love,lol
Ackgh. Painfully beautiful.
this is my first time listening to her and I thought I wouldn't like her
but MY GOD she's amazing
lots of her stuff on youtube ,,keep listening shes amazing !
Thats was awesome !
This is much better than that frivolous "Happy Song". I've been dreading this day tbh.. the day she becomes a mother & looses her edge & becomes all happy, & dull, & boring. The Tortured artist isn't a myth! But I am shocked that this track has Bass & Penetrative Drums in.. 2 things that she usually shies away from. Now she's just got to make sure they are powerful throughout; opposed to just peaking their heads above the mix intermittently.
The production is (as usual) in Heap's inimitable style, doesn't get to over complicated so the meaning doesn't get lost, it has a mix of artificial & real sounds, but most importantly. it has structure. So many midi-kids today can sure make a killer beat, but they lack the creativity & skill to give the music a narrative, a structure. I'd be interested to see where she goes next. I hope it isn't just a "Yay! I'm a Happy middle aged mother" album/EP.
I actually like the Happy Song - it's kinda like the opposite of this one.
From what I gathered this one is about postpartum depression and struggling with managing being a mother, while Happy Song is simple, and sounds like there hasn't been much thought to it, and follows her journey as a mother. It's like the Listening Chair, it keeps evolving.
Though, I need to say I would have hated the Happy Song not hearing this one first. :)
The Happy Song wasn't written for you. It was written specifically for children.
You haven't heard many of Imogen's songs if you say that she "shies away from bass". I mean - Me The Machine, Run-Time, Minds Without Fear, Entanglement, Swoon? Most of Speak For Yourself (album) was pretty bass-rich as well. In any case, I'm sure she knows exactly how she wants to arrange and mix her songs, so patronizing her by saying what "she's got to make sure" was uncalled for.
1:06 FOX GOD!!!
Imogen has been watching Babymetal!!! :D
Immi. <3
amazing!
Simply AMAZING 💜🎶
We're all just trying to be as cool as Bjork and not quite getting there, aren't we?
I'll give you the fact that Bjork is one of her inspirations, but that kind of cool isn't just a vertical scale. It's not quite cool "like" bjork, but she has surpassed being "as" cool on her own axis of coolness. This would be easier to explain with my whiteboard, hold on........
is that with ethereum blockhain. how cab I learn more about this technology
Her icon changed :o! She's aliiiiiiive!
soon...
ZacAttackk I think it's an automatic thing on Youtube ;-;
Definitely an automatic move on Youtube's part.
she's an i now ( ̄3 ̄)
This is so emotional and full, and also just exquisitely recorded and produced and mixed. I love it.
thy should have played the video back O_o
Very beautiful.
Thank you Imogen Heap, for getting me back into my body and mind and heart for the past.... 10 years of my life. Again. You did it again! <3
how came from sennheiser orpheus trailer ?
Oh and this video should have 8 million views, not 88K.
That was my first watch/listen of this track. Goosebumps. Beautiful on all levels. Imogen Heap is truly one of a kind.
This video reminds me of "Big Girls Cry" by Sia.
Song is beautiful!!
^by the way XD
Yes yes! I also love Sia a lot!
Watching this while pregnant is a really bad idea! *sniff
Thank you sennheiser for introducing you
Every dislike from ignorant ears.
They just don't appreciate real good music. Screw them.
...from stupid people, too ! ;-D
The 1% dislikes are simply from people who accidentally hit the 👎 button.
I'm a mommy and I love how raw and deep this is. it explains how much little people take, it's not always butterflies and rainbows, but I'd have it no other way
I listened to this on Mother's Day this year and I cried my bloody eyes out...
I keep returning day after day hoping for more! I miss you Immi, hope family life is going well!! I look forward to the day I can see you live again! I have my footprint pass ready!
Most underrated, under appreciated, and overlooked artist of our lifetime. There will never be another, Imogen, and we are beyond lucky to live in the same moment as she does. <3 #Brilliant #Amazing #Gorgeous #TinyHooman <3 <3 <3
Y2Juan ʕ•ᴥ• ʔ Its criminal!
Her music is truly breathtaking, raw, godly and other worldly. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world 🎶✨💕
What the hell is going on?!
Is Imogen using sign language? I realize it's probably a stupid question but sign language is different in each country...American asking here.
I think she's just dancing
shes just dancing
Ooh, okay. Me over thinking it. Thank you for your kind responses.
The movements are choreographed by the guy who did the movements for the Harry Potter play in London, for which Imogen did the music...it's all connected!
I fucking love you Imogen. I can't even have you in my dreams
Absolute Genius!
yum! ♥
Every time I hear it makes me goosebumps. You have a fantastic voice and you're a girl from the spectacular talents do not know the text well, but you do not need words to explain your music because it speaks for itself. Great <3
Imogen hurry up and give us more Vlogs we need more or you on YouTube
I think her and Sia should make a song together one day
She's done it again! So much beauty in 1 song. Never stop Imogen!
<3 I love it, Immi, you have a beautiful mind.
Immi.........your supposed to wet the babies head!! ;)
