Well hello everyone here is a little extra blog I just wanted to do!
You all know how much I love Imogen Heap , yes you know that is true!
So this is an out and out fan post, a post to show I really am impressed .
So this shows much her techniques of making music have progressed .
She started out with lots of machines, computer and keyboards, bells and recorders.Phew !
Also another one of Imogen on stage working hard before gloves!! Phew exhausting!
Then she started to develop her Me.Mi gloves , I picked this video because one it shows her lovely home and because it is not as long and technical as some of the talks she has done on the subject!
And finally so as not to bore everyone here she is performing with her gloves , the song me the machine is so beautiful .
Today’s music theme was picked by Maddie and she has chosen Death and Rebirth.
Lets start with Shakespeare’s Sister : The video shows the fight between life and death….. who will win!

The Morrígan (“phantom queen”) or Mórrígan (“great queen”), also written as Morrígu or in the plural as Morrígna, and spelled Morríghan or Mór-ríoghain in Modern Irish, is a figure from Irish mythology who appears to have been considered a goddess, although she is not explicitly referred to as such in the texts.
The primary themes associated with the Morrígan are battle, strife, and sovereignty. She sometimes appears in the form of a crow, flying above the warriors, and in the Ulster Cycle she also takes the forms of an eel, a wolf and a cow. She is generally considered a war deity comparable with the GermanicValkyries, although her association with a cow may also suggest a role connected with wealth and the land.
She is often depicted as a trio of individuals, all sisters.[1][2][3] Although membership of the triad varies, the most common combinations are Badb, Macha and Nemain,[4] or Badb, Macha and Anand; Anand is also given as an alternate name for Morrigu.[5] Other accounts name Fea, and others.[4] you can read more here
I have written two poems about The Irish Goddess of Death and Rebirth Morrigan
Goddess of War and Sex the most enchanting woman you have seen.
Secretly she flies with ravens and crows
She is happier in their company than that of any man she knows.
Riding her white steed across the sky at night
She will find a hero and bind him to her tight.
By the joys of sex she will empower him and be he knave or king
With the memory of her love he will surge into battle and he will win.
Through the seasons the crows carry her name she has shapes times three .
Which one will she chose to show which one will she be.
A crone at the village fair
Making jewellery for the young maids to wear in their hair.
A comely maid in spring may make a young king’s heart sing.
His soul to her is lost she will sate his lust.
Then empower him and he in battle will win.
The Tripple Goddess
Then will come the day when she will ensure he has to pay.
A woman in full bloom all curves and charms
Will welcome the knight into her arms
And teach him things he could never have known.
He will awake to find her flown
Leaving feathers on the pillow. Outside his window he will hear the harsh crow song.
All men who have been visited by her will triumph at their cause ,
Then at their death bed she will return and the mystery’s of life she will unravel then his life she will pause.
The old the young the one carrying new birth .And so the three in one travel this earth
Spreading their magic along their way
Crows and ravens by night and a woman by day.
Morrigan phantom Queen
Goddess of War and Sex the most enchanting woman you have seen.
Secretly she flies with ravens and crows
She is happier in their company than that of any man she knows.

Morrigan Nightmare of the rebirth of the dead.
Morrigan
Dark and stormy full of dread
On the grey waters black of heart and dress of red.
Sullen feeling filled her soul
As the wind whipped up her dress and let fly her hair black as coal.
In the sky over head weaved her Raven broad of wing and sharp of eye
Black and shiny against a grey unholy sky.
Waters broke about her feet,
Icy cold but to her sweet.
She is the rebirth of the dead
She is the one on which all darkness is fed.
Slowly as the thunder clashed
She turned to face me and an evil light in her eyes flashed.
Reaching out her hand to me
She gently cooed that she had come to set me free.
Relinquish all of you that is good give in to me
Relax, release I am here to set you free.
No I screamed I will not bow to you, I am not such easy prey
Here I stand and here I shall stay
Do what ever you have come to do.
Angry now she motioned to her raven down,
He swooped at speed. So fast was he and noisy too.
His warning screech I did not heed
In he came with talons long and beak razor sharp on my face to feed.
my eyes so bright
That was how I lost my sight,
It was wrench from me that dark grey night .
Still I was steadfast I stood my ground
Though her raven ripped at me and threw my flesh all around.
On the grey waters black of heart and dress of red.
Sullen feeling filled her soul
As the wind whipped up her dress and let fly her hair black as coal.
