Come Here Boy
Imogen Heap · I-Megaphone<Come Here Boy (1998)
And visions are flashing into my head as I reminisce
My re-occuring dream
And you said
"I'm falling, falling for you Babe,
And my feelings are getting stronger
So why don't you stay with me for a, for a little longer?"
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
I know that my face
Is only too familiar to your sleep
I can see it in you eyes
And I can tell by your body
Why are you taking so long
Do you need me to come and find you, honey?
To set your mind at rest
And let your dreams run free
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
You know I'm no stranger in a dream
You know, I'm no stranger in a dream
Oh but I'm craving and counting
I'm begging and pleading
Be mine tonight, oh yeah
Well I'm waiting and dying
I'm wanting and waiting
To show you how much I care
Where I'll be touching and holding
Caressing and giving you
Every fantasy, yeah
I'll get you dreaming and lusting
And burning and crying
For more of this ecstacy, oh yeah
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
Come here boy,
You know, you know
I'm no stranger in your dreams

Released during the early days of the digital music revolution, the recording showcases Heap's pioneering use of the Auto-Tune effect not as a corrective tool, but as a distinct textural element that became a hallmark of her sound. The song blends indie pop sensibilities with experimental electronic production, reflecting the innovative spirit of the late 1990s. It serves as an early demonstration of Heap's unique voice and her willingness to push the boundaries of popular music technology, influencing subsequent generations of electronic and alternative artists. The track remains a significant piece in her discography, capturing a specific moment in musical history where electronic experimentation met mainstream appeal.
