Posted January 16, 200718 yr http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/5891742.JPG 'Read My Lips' was recorded in London and New York with Sophie writing or co-writing all of the tracks on the album (collaborators include Alex James from Blur). The lead single 'Take Me Home' has already received a rapturous reception with its cool disco groove, crisp French beats and the mesmerising line - 'You deserve a girl like me'. 80s soul rhythms jiggle under swish strings and glittery funk guitars for the sassy 'Murder On The Dancefloor', the slower 'Move This Mountain' is a theatrical pop drama, whilst the dinky electro-pop 'Everything Falls Into Place' has its tongue in cheek and its white stilettos on. This updated version of the album includes three extra tracks - 'Get Over You', 'Music Gets The Best Of Me' and a live version of 'Groovejet' 'Quite simply, she's the most intriguing female pop phenomenon since Madonna' - Marie Claire 1. Murder On The Dancefloor 2. Take Me Home 3. Lover 4. Move This Mountain 5. Music Gets The Best Of Me 6. Sparkle 7. The Universe Is You 8. I Believe 9. Get Over You 10. By Chance 11. Is It Any Wonder 12. Leave The Others Alone 13. Final Move 14. Everything Falls Into Place 15. Groovejet (If This Ain't Love) [Live Version]
January 16, 200718 yr One of my favourite albums, love all the singles, and Lover, The Universe Is You, Sparkle, Leave The Others Alone and I Believe are big favourites of mine.
January 16, 200718 yr Mine too. :D I'd have liked her to release it but all the singles were good choices anyway!
January 17, 200718 yr Lover is great, wasn't that down as a potential single on the first release of the album? I also love Final Move.
January 17, 200718 yr Lover is great, wasn't that down as a potential single on the first release of the album? I also love Final Move. I heard her do a live set on Radio 1 shortly after the release of 'Take Me Home' and she introduced 'Lover' and said it would be her next single, but 'Murder On The Dancefloor' was released.
January 19, 200718 yr I do really like this album! I used to be obsessed with it! I think 'Lover' is complete filler - she definitely chose the right singles. As well as the singles, I love 'Final Move', 'The Universe Is You' and 'Move This Mountain'. I gave it a re-listen a couple of weeks ago, I've gone off it a bit but these tracks still stand out for me ^_^
January 23, 200718 yr I heard/read a lot of good words about this album. It's her best album? I like Read My Lips best, but marginally. Read My Lips is poppy but has a wide range of styles throughout, Shoot From The Hip is very experimental and excellent too I think.
March 6, 200718 yr So if Music Gets the Best of Me and Get Over You were not added, what do you think would have been released? I'm glad MGTBOM was though, I think it's my fave Sophie track.
March 13, 200718 yr Lover would have i think ^_^ I'm glad Music Gets The Best of Me ad Get Over You were added then, I don't think Lover would have done that well.
