BBC Euro 2012 coverage brought me here, what a shame for Italy. This Spanish team is the greatest team the world has ever seen, I don't think anyone can argue against that now.
Absolutely wonderful. What a combination of artistic sensibilities... the brilliance of Michael Jackson and Imogen Heap. Wow! I've seen the 'Thriller' video a million times, but never have I heard the lyrics interpreted such as this. I wonder if Imogen Heap knows what magician she truly is?
Such a shame for italy. I was rooting for them all the way. What a time for the Spanish to pull out their best performance of the tournament. Credit to them. Great BBC montage, and great song!
Yep, I also just heard it on MOTD which made me look it up and I love it. I always find when good artists take on a MJ song these artists show what a good songwriter MJ was.
she is so AMAZING. why is she not on the radio you ask? she's tooooo good for it. also, i usually dont like when people use others peoples songs and make theeir own version, but for imogen, it's different
Wow. I adore this cover. I'm a big fan of the original, but her hauntingly beautiful piano playing takes this song in a new direction. I'm amazed. Oh yeah, and people trying to compare the two, you missed the entire point of the DEDICATION!
The bbc interview is no longer available on their site. A snippet of the show (along with the cover) can be heard here: bPI6MmJs7xc (copy and paste in the searchbox) Her honesty and courage in expressing her admiration for another artist really struck me.
there is a free program called youtube downloader. it lets you download the audio of anything on you tube. I use it all the time. Its great for collectiong live and rare songs.
@kdawn06 there is a free program called youtube downloader. it lets you download the audio of anything on you tube. I use it all the time. Its great for collectiong live and rare songs. Just search online for it.
if you get real player 11 (or higher?) I beleive you can instantly download any youtube video you watch. You can then use a file converter to extract the audio. Takes some time, but it works :) it's also probably illegal...
@Tfrne sorry but what did you mean.what' happened to imogen,why the R.I.P things.i've just knew imogen' song for a while and i really like her song,but what really happened to her,seriously
well when kaka and ronaldinho won those accolades they were literally the best in the world i think 04 maybe 05 or 06 was ronaldinho season same with kaka he was at his best in 07
Oh yeah I completely understand, of course Iniesta and Xavi are world class. I was just replying to someone who essentially insinuated that Kaka and Ronaldinho were fairly average players and that Xavi and Iniesta were light years ahead of them. I still think that the Brazilian players were key elements in that Brazilian side, and personally, I will count Ronaldinho as one of the greatest individual talents I have ever seen. Plus, both players were pivotal in their respective club teams
We are the best team ever! Euro - World Cup - Euro! Spain has 0 goals against since 2008 in the second round, quarter finals ... etc. The last player to score a goal against Spain was Zidane in 2006! See you in Brazil!
I work as a DJ for my college radio station. When this song was requested, I played it and almost cried on air.
This is the one cover I wish Michael had been alive to hear. It's beautiful.
She turned it to completely different ambience! Marvelous Immi. ✨
It is a different " dimesion" ! A voice with such passion and dimensions!
this is pure genious. i love this version, and i know have a more clear understanding of the song. beautiful!
Now I remember why I have her albums. Her voice is GORGEOUS.
A new take to a classic pop song! A well done, lovely cover!
My Goddess does it again, elevating this peace.
This so amazing and holy shit. I didn't think anyone could cover MJ well. Imogen Heap proves, yet again, that she does everything awesomely.
Im here cuz i heard it on the dermuid o leary radio show long time ago but it stuck in me head ever since..loves imogens voice x
BBC Euro 2012 coverage brought me here, what a shame for Italy. This Spanish team is the greatest team the world has ever seen, I don't think anyone can argue against that now.
yes it did bring me here. the song is amazing.. wow
She is able to bring a completely different dimension to the classic song with her voice and her piano playing. It is unexpected but very, very good.
imogen, you sing amazing, fantastic.
Absolutely wonderful. What a combination of artistic sensibilities... the brilliance of Michael Jackson and Imogen Heap. Wow! I've seen the 'Thriller' video a million times, but never have I heard the lyrics interpreted such as this. I wonder if Imogen Heap knows what magician she truly is?
Oh, Imogen. You thrill me everytime I hear you sing
This is beautiful. It's a completely different song, but in the most amazing way. Killer Immi, indeed.
It was used in a Euro '12 recap video.
My thumb is UP !!! Beauty has no words
Brillant cover, great arrangement!
Such a shame for italy. I was rooting for them all the way. What a time for the Spanish to pull out their best performance of the tournament. Credit to them. Great BBC montage, and great song!
This isn't just a cover, this is a proper arrangement with a unique twist, genius!
It's a kind of sad to know that people know her just because of the Shooting joke and the "Hide and seek" song, or even worse for the Derulo's cover.
Brilliant interpretation!!!
just heard this on match of the day, still stunned half an hour later, amazing version
Maybe I'm getting old for UA-cam, but this song has been with me for 7 years, always the same, everlasting... Maybe more...
Killer Immy! Magnifique!
Me too.. as soon as it came on i started searching..
Ohmygoodness I got chills when she sang "thriller" with a high voice
x'D
I really like her voice ^^
What a load of total talent!
thw original song always scared me as a kid... now i can listen to it in peace!
This makes my heart dance.
HOLY CRAP! AWESOME!!!!!!
Beautiful!
Excellent!!
Yep, I also just heard it on MOTD which made me look it up and I love it. I always find when good artists take on a MJ song these artists show what a good songwriter MJ was.
Late response to this comment obviously, but Thriller was written by Rod Temperton.
i got chills :P
god... this is incredible... this is a softer version but its like... just as intense as the original by michael jackson. omg...
Awesome version.
This gave me goosebumps.
Yes, end of Euro 2012 brought me here. I'm so glad I finally found the song! Didn't know who sang this and want to get it.
Beautiful
This couldn't be done better.
thats amazing
everything imogen touches turns 2 gold...
uuufff....i jus love her.
My thumbs are up, took me a couple of minutes to find it though x
Snap Ben Lumb.....Ashes advert brought me here and I love it...
she is so AMAZING. why is she not on the radio you ask? she's tooooo good for it. also, i usually dont like when people use others peoples songs and make theeir own version, but for imogen, it's different
England Ashes 2013 brought me here ! Had to find out who sang this awesome cover !
I quite like this cover and the attempt by Aiden on X-Factor, it's brave to take on such a legend of a song and input their own style.
she has such an increadible voice
Wow. I adore this cover. I'm a big fan of the original, but her hauntingly beautiful piano playing takes this song in a new direction. I'm amazed. Oh yeah, and people trying to compare the two, you missed the entire point of the DEDICATION!
Christina Aguilera in the top 3 singers of all time...shows how much you know about music!
very cool, something new to it ya know, spooky.
"Thrill her night", honestly this song is more dark and emotional than the original MJ version. I Like it.
this is awesome!! I love how she has interpreted it!! Anywhere it can be downloaded?
If they did a documentary about a guy who makes horror films, then he has some personal loss this would be the perfect song for that montage.
beautifull
i love this song! a little
that's pretty awesome

Her honesty and courage in expressing her admiration for another artist really struck me.
This is the only cover of thriller that I actually love, and its because she made it her own.
i love it! Just wish she uses her scary voice, but yet i don't care, its really good.
GodDAMMM!!
if u want slow dance music for halloween XD
Good old BBC
Great version
Same here... :)
she has a beautiful voice
Sorta ode to Michael Jackson.
A beautiful valediction by a spectacularly talented woman to a spectacularly talented man.
An interesting version. i've added it to my FB group dedicated to covers. It's called "the Guilty Pleasure of the Cover Version" feel free to join in.
RIP....this is just a shock...I'm completely shocked

Euro cup enticed me here! >
wow mata only played three mins of this tournament and scored a goal just shows how good spain are
don't think they were thinking of werewolves, rather the "thriller" of a great cup final? Iniesta...you are a football genius !!!
I finally connected to the song's deep meaning.
Chelsea boys seal the deal! Vamos Espana!
BBC played this twice... I'm here 'cus I heard it when they did it for the game before
GOOD JOB SPAIN.
Me wants. Me wants. Me wants.
Someone knowes where can I find the piano tab/sheet?
thanks in advice.
Does anyone know where i can find all the covers the BBC used for the Euro 2012 ??
Not sure how the f did this end closing the euros but it's a boss song esp when you're slightly drunk.
SkySports-England Ashes 2013 brought me here !
Is there any way to download this ?
yes.
Spain are beast!
Make this available as a single on itunes pleeeease.
@kdawn06 there is a free program called youtube downloader. it lets you download the audio of anything on you tube. I use it all the time. Its great for collectiong live and rare songs. Just search online for it.
@CinnCity78 Bad news for you: Rod Temperton really likes it. And he wrote it.
if you get real player 11 (or higher?) I beleive you can instantly download any youtube video you watch. You can then use a file converter to extract the audio. Takes some time, but it works :)
it's also probably illegal...
@Tfrne sorry but what did you mean.what' happened to imogen,why the R.I.P things.i've just knew imogen' song for a while and i really like her song,but what really happened to her,seriously
It works for me...
well when kaka and ronaldinho won those accolades they were literally the best in the world i think 04 maybe 05 or 06 was ronaldinho season same with kaka he was at his best in 07

If thriller was played at Starbucks
