Belouis Some has described the song as being "about a British man's encounter with an extremely self-indulgent American woman",and one that "expresses the conflict between reality and dreams".
"'Imagination' isn't an erotic song because it doesn't go for the jugular in say the same way that Prince does, but it is very suggestive."
"The single's very straight, no gimmicks, it's the song for the song's worth."
A music video was produced for "Imagination", and was directed by Storm Thorgerson.
It caused controversy as it contained full frontal nudity.
Some said of the video ,"It's quite tasteful, not dirty. [Guitarist] Carlos Alomar called me a sexist pig but thought it was wonderful."
Belouis Some said of the video's controversy,
"It wasn't done to cause a stir, it was done for artistic reasons and we put a lot of our own money into it. It became an obsession for all of us because we believed in it so much.
Reviews:
"Imagine a David Bowie single from his Young Americans period played by his Let's Dance band and you'll have a fair idea of what this is about. It's played exceptionally well and is a brilliant single."
"a stomping, assured record sung with Bowiesque conviction".
