"Imagination" is a 1985 single by British artist Belouis Some, from his 1985 debut album Some People. Upon its first release in the UK in 1985, the song only managed to chart at #50, but a re-release proved more successful, hitting the Top 20 and peaking at #17 on the UK Singles Chart in January 1986. In the U.S., the song reached #88 on the Billboard Hot 100 in May 1985.
A music video was produced for "Imagination", and was directed by Storm Thorgerson. It caused controversy as it contained full frontal nudity.
The song was covered by Harry as part of the album The Trouble with... Harry in 2003. It was used as a soundtrack for a humorous Barclay's Bank advertisement in the 1980s, as well as the 1987 movie "Ghost Chase".
