Reading The Magic Echo Chamber, I found a good description of the song by David Chamber:
I love this song! This is a different version (not a remix, the vocal track is completely different) done for the Songs for Tibet disc. It sounds almost like a hymn. Glorious, emotional, and a little sad.

Imogen Heap about the origin of "Hide and Seek"
This is an extract from an interview 4 years ago, where Imogen Heap talks about the origin of her song, "Hide and Seek":
"It was a sweet how that song happened. I had had a really bad “day at the office” as my shiny new computer blew up on me. Real puff of smoke and sparks material. i was about to leave the studio defeated which is always a bad thing. Those days can spiral into weeks and it’s important to try to do at least one thing in a day you’re happy with. Out of the corner of my eye i spotted my harmonizer (a little box that you hook up to a keyboard via midi so you can play in the notes you want your voice to transpose to in real time). I hadn’t yet written anything with this piece of gear but had always wanted to do an a cappella on this album. I powered it up and connected my microphone into the box and recorded the output to my minidisk.
The first thing i sung/played and four minutes later was and is the melody and harmony of the final version. Lyrically it wasn’t all there apart from “Where are we, what the hell is going on?” and some random lines but i had the idea of Hide and Seek a while beforehand. It was like magic. Just as i struck the last chord a train went by outside the window and you can hear this in the final version. There was something so special about this version i was gutted it had no lyrics really to speak of but every breath and chord of the demo i copied as best i could to get everything from that 2am moment onto the record. I love this song as it feels as if it’s not mine because it took so little time to finish as others take weeks, months! Feels like a gift."

Imogen Heap - Hide and Seek 5.25.06 / Apple Store Chicago
This is the AMAZING Imogen Heap performing, "Hide & Seek" from her new album (which is FANTASTIC). I did some stuff to the footage, which was shot with a casio digital still camera. The audio was recorded seperately through iMovie in my friend, DJ's laptop. Then it was retracked in Final Cut HD, titled with LiveType, and the side screens were done in Motion 2. Enjoy...

Contents
Television
The song gained popularity after being featured as background music on the American television series The O.C., later parodied in a 2007 Saturday Night Live Digital Short called The Shooting. In the short, characters cut each other's sentences off by pulling out guns and shooting each other as the refrain plays over their slow-motion deaths. NBC was unable to upload the clip to YouTube immediately after the show because it hadn't cleared the song, but fans uploaded it on their own, naming it "Dear Sister". It became an Internet phenomenon, spawning a number of parodies in which scenes of real and fictional violence are punctuated with the refrain.[1]
The song also appears in the films The Last Kiss and Warren Miller's Off the Grid. It has also been featured in the series So You Think You Can Dance, Smith, The L Word, The Real World: Sydney, and CSI: Miami.
The single was certified gold by the RIAA on 3 April 2009.
