Live performance @ Poptech 2008

Wait it out was the first song of the new album ELLIPSE writen by imogen.

This was the first time Imogen performed wait it out live.

LYRICS:

where do we go from here?

how do we carry on?

i can't get beyond the questions...

clambering for the scraps,

in the shatter of us collapsed.

it cuts me with every "could-have-been."

pain on pain on play, repeating.

with the back-up make-up life shift waiting.

everybody says,

that time heals everything.

but what of the wretched hollow?

the endless in-between?

are we just going to wait it out...?

there's nothing to see here now,

turning the sign around,

we're closed to the earth til further notice.

clambering for the scraps, clambering in the light.

we're closed to the earth til further...

all-in-one, only one street-level miracle.

i'll be an out-in-out, born-again from none more cynical.

where do we go from here?

how do we carry on?

i can't get beyond the questions...

clambering for the scraps,

in the shatter of us collapsed.

it cuts me with every "could-have-been."

pain on pain on play, repeating.

with the back-up make-up life shift waiting.

everybody says,

i'll be an out-in-out, born-again from none more cynical.

everybody says,

that time heals everything.

but what of the wretched hollow?

the endless in-between?

are we just going to wait it out...?

...and sit here cold?

we could be long gone by then,

and lackluster.

and dust will layer on old magazines.

fluorescent lighting sets the scene,

for all we could and should be being,

in the one life that we've got...

everybody says,

that time heals everything.

but what of the wretched hollow?

the endless in-between?

are we just going to wait it out?

just going to sweat it out?

just going to sweat it out?

wait it out.

everybody says,

that time heals everything.

but what of the wretched hollow?

the endless in-between?

are we just going to wait it out...?

...and sit here cold?

we could be long gone by then,

and lackluster.

and dust will layer on old magazines.

for all we could and should be being,

in the one life that we've got...

everybody says,

that time heals everything.

but what of the wretched hollow?

the endless in-between?

are we just going to wait it out?

just going to sweat it out?

just going to sweat it out?

She really built up her confidence 1/3'rd of the way through, that's when she started hitting the notes on key (Save 2 slip ups after..) But you listen to anyone else live and compare it to their polished and published product (This song wasn't even fully released yet) Still she did wonderfully. You would be hard pressed to find any artists that are actually any good live, without LIVE autotune - _-'

Audience sound a lovely lot at the start...NOT. Hear that tumbleweed rustling. Also, isn't this meant to showcase the gizmos, not just the piano?
