Frou Frou - Let Go



Artist: Frou Frou
Track: Let Go
Album: Details
Year: 2002

I love Imogen Heap and anything she does, so that definitely includes Frou Frou. Honestly, I don't think I've ever heard a bad song off this album. Sadly, this was the only one the duo released before they split and Imogen went off to start a solo career. 

Imogen's vocals are soft and elegant as always. The music itself is beautifully textured electronica that flows with the whispery vocals to tell that there's "beauty in the breakdown". It almost has an intimate feel to it.

LYRICS:

Drink up baby doll
Are you in or are you out?
Leave your things behind
'Cause it's all going off without you
Excuse me too busy
You're writing your tragedy
These mishaps you bubble-wrap when
You've no idea what you're like

So, let go, let go
Jump in
Oh well, what you waiting for?
It's all right
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

So, let go, let go
Just get in
Oh, it's so amazing here
It's all right
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

It gains the more it gives
And then it rises with the fall
So hand me that remot
Can't you see that all that stuff's a sideshow?
Such boundless pleasure
We've no time for later
Now you can't await your own arrival
You've twenty seconds to comply

So, let go, so let go
Jump in
Oh well, what you waiting for?
It's alright
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

So, let go, yeah let go
Just get in
Oh, it's so amazing here
It's all right
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

Hey yah, hey yah, hey ah
Hey yah, hey yah, hey mm eh
Hey yah, hey yah, hey ah
Hey yah, hey yah, hey mm eh

So, let go,
Jump in
Oh well, what you waiting for?
It's alright
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

So, let go, yeah let go
Just get in
Oh, it's so amazing here
It's all right
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

In the breakdown
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown
The breakdown
So amazing here
'Cause there's beauty in the breakdown

  1. Thank you! I thought Boys Like Girls was the original but I was clearly wrong. Spotify not working probably because I don't have an account or because where I live. Gonna listen to it in youtube. Thanks again :)

    1. You're most welcome! I didn't even know Boys Like Girls covered this song.

      I'm sorry you can't play the Spotify link, but down in bottom right corner is the exfm player. If you click the playlist button in the middle, you can select this song and listen to it there. :)

      Thanks for commenting! :D
