Imogen Heap's "The Song That Never Was" Experiment

So check it...

(from Twestival.fm)
A short time ago, Imogen Heap took a few days out from making her new album to write a track that was supposed to feature at the end of a TV program. She wrote the song and recorded all the vocals, leaving the music for the composer who was writing the rest of the score so she could get on with her much anticipated new album. For one reason or another the song wasn’t used and so the track never got completed. But their loss is Twestival’s gain as she’s excitedly donated the aforementioned vocals for ‘The Song That Never Was’ experiment.

Here are the individual tracks she recorded for people to download and compose their own melodies and musical interpretations:



And here are the submitted entries thus far... some are bizarre and some are quite amazing. My personal favorites are #133 and #123. Take a listen...
