Imogen Heap plays the song "Goodnight And Go" live in concert at The Masonic in San Francisco, CA on June 8, 2019. The song originally appeared on her 2005 solo album Speak For Yourself. It was later covered by Ariana Grande, whom Heap discusses in the song intro. In fact, she notes that this live version is "a kind of mashup" incorporating some elements of Ariana Grande's version. Joining Heap onstage were Guy Sigsworth (keyboards), Zoe Keating (cello), Emma Houston (keytar), Tim Keiper (drums), and Steve Jones (guitar).
Heap performs with Mi.Mu musical gloves, which allow her to manipulate/loop her voice and musical samples with movements of her hands. She said this about them: "They basically enable me to reach inside that computer, and have access to all the software that I love. All of the augmentation of my voice. Or maybe I want to bring in some samples. Or add in a delay. Or reverse my voice, or whatever I want to do. So all of the vocal effects you're hearing tonight are done live."
Goodnight And Go lyrics:
Skipping beats, blushing cheeks, I am struggling
Daydreaming, bed scenes in the corner café
And then I'm left in bits recovering tectonic tremblings
You get me every time
Why d'ya have to be so cute?
It's impossible to ignore you
Must you make me laugh so much?
It's bad enough we get along so well
Say goodnight and go
Follow you home, you've got your headphones on and you're dancing
I've got a lucky beautiful shot, you're taking everything off, watch the curtains wide open
And you fall in the same routine flicking through the TV, relaxed and reclining
And you think you're alone...
Oh, why d'ya have to be so cute?
It's impossible to ignore you
Must you make me laugh so much?
It's bad enough we get along so well
Say goodnight and go
One of these days, you'll miss your train and come stay with me
We'll have drinks and talk about things, any excuse to stay awake with you
You'd sleep here, I'd sleep there, but then the heating may be down again
At my convenience
We'd be good, we'd be great together
Why d'ya have to be so cute?
It's impossible to ignore you
Must you make me laugh so much?
It's bad enough we get along so well
Say goodnight and go
Oh, why's it always, always...
Goodnight and go
Oh, darling, not again
Goodnight and go
