"Imagination" is a song British musician Belouis Some wrote on his own for his 1985 debut album, Some People, a new wave single on Parlophone with Steve Thompson producing. Its first UK outing, in March 1985, stalled at 50, and it only scraped into America's Hot 100 at 88 that spring, but a second run in January 1986 did the trick, climbing to 17 that February.
It refused to stay put after that. The Beloved's Jon and Helena Marsh remixed it in 1994 for a single on Some's own Some Music label, and in 2023 he teamed with producer Lee Rose on a tech house version for Deevu Records.
