Imogen Clark's latest release, "Big One," has left me pondering its significance as it had me dancing at 6 am mere moments after waking up. It's remarkable how a song can instantly elevate one's mood, and this track is no exception. Scheduled to be featured on Imogen's upcoming album, "The Art of Getting Through," slated for a May release, it holds promise for what's to come. If "Big One" is any indication of the album's direction, I'd say it's essential to keep an eye on her musical journey. Many might listen to this track and wonder why Imogen isn't already an international star. The foundation for a flourishing career seems firmly in place, and beyond that lies untapped potential. Regardless, I really hope she continues to create art.

The track is about being someone's “Big One.” Imogen has said this means “To be the big one means being someone that person can never forget, even though things don’t work out.” I think the song has a lot to give when it comes to self-empowerment, in terms of recognizing your own self-worth and upholding it. I mean, the lyrics and vocals by themselves are enough to convey that message, but the music is also very powerful. It goes completely hand in glove with Imogen’s performance. The track was produced by Mike Bloom. When I look at Mike Bloom’s discography and combine it with Imogen’s powerful voice, it no longer becomes a surprise why I am dancing at 6 AM. I mean, I am not saying that just because you have done a lot of work that it automatically means your new work will be amazing. However, if your new work is amazing, then you can kind of look back at a person's work history just for some validation. Listen to the track for what it is and use your own taste to form an opinion.

Imogen Clark is moving to the US. She is from Australia, so moving to the US would instantly open up such an unimaginable amount of opportunities. Like I previously talked about, I think she has “the stuff” that can make an international superstar. The music industry is funny. Just like buying stocks, you can make more or less informed decisions on what will happen, but you can never be completely certain. I think after reading this, you should listen to "Big One."
