Claire Boucher (born March 17, 1988), better known by her stage name Grimes, is a Canadian artist, musician, and music video director. A native of Vancouver, Grimes began recording experimental music while attending McGill University in Montreal, where she became involved with the underground electronic and industrial music scene.
In 2010, she released her debut album, Geidi Primes through Arbutus Records, followed by Halfaxa (2010). In late 2011, she announced that she had signed with 4AD Records, who partnered with Arbutus to release her third album, Visions (2012). Visions met critical acclaim and was hailed by the The New York Times as "one of the most impressive albums of the year so far".
Grimes' music has been noted by critics and journalists for its atypical combination of vocal elements, as well as a wide array of influences, ranging from industrial and electronic to pop, hip hop, R&B, noise rock and even medieval music.

3. OBLIVION
Another walk about, after dark
It's my point of view
If someone could break your neck
Coming up behind you always coming and you'd never have a clue
And now I'm left behind, all the time
I will wait forever, always looking straight
Thinking, counting, all the the other way
See you on a dark night... x3
Lalalalala
And now another clue, I would have
If you could help me out
It's hard to understand
Cause when you're really by yourself, it's hard to find someone who
Understands
And now it's gonna be, tough on me
But I will wait forever
I need someone else to look into my eyes and tell me girl you know you
Gotta watch your health
To look into my eyes and tell me
La la la la la, la la la la
To look into my eyes and tell me
La la la la la, la la la la
La la la la la, la la la la
I see you on a dark night, uhh, aaa... x3

4. BE A BODY
I close my eyes until I see
I don't need hands to touch me
Be a Body
I lean on walls until I stand
I touch my face with my hand
Be a Body
So then what am I?
Be a Body

5. SKIN
ohh oh oh ohh oh oh ohh oh oh ohh
Soooooft skin,
You touch me with it, so I know
I can be human once again.
I know you're faced with something
that could consume you completly.
Sooooooft skin,
You touch me once again, and somehow
it stings 'cause I know it is the end.
I hate that you're leaving.
So why don't you talk to me?
You act like nothing ever happened,
But it meant the world to me.
