March 27, 201015 yr How about putting "just can't fight this feeling" into the album? I really like that song.
March 27, 201015 yr How about putting "just can't fight this feeling" into the album? I really like that song. I'd have no objections, although probably won't happen because it's just her as a featured artist on someone else's song and no plans to release the single outside of France so far.
March 28, 201015 yr Yeaeh, I want Just Can't Fight This Feeling on the album as well, love it! I made this tracklist... Hello Sophierazzi :P. I love your site, come there very often.
March 30, 201015 yr I'd have no objections, although probably won't happen because it's just her as a featured artist on someone else's song and no plans to release the single outside of France so far. Thank you! ;) By the way, Sophie performed two new songs on The Album Chart Show... there's a couple of reviews and one LQ recording on my blog.. 1. Heartbreak Make Me A Dancer 2. Revolution - supoosed to be louder and bigger and Bittersweet 3. Under Your Touch - i told you i was unsure about Magic even though Richard X mentioned it on his site. This could be in place of Magic. Or Sophia Loren 4. Bittersweet 5. Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)
April 18, 201015 yr Sophie confirmed the tracklist in Gay Times Mag.

April 18, 201015 yr So, we have a 13-tracks album in the UK then? I was gutted when I read that the Buuren track wasn't going to be on the album. Now it's there again. Or it is a bonus track?
April 18, 201015 yr So, we have a 13-tracks album in the UK then? I was gutted when I read that the Buuren track wasn't going to be on the album. Now it's there again. Or it is a bonus track? As far as I know it's always been there, though I don't think the tracks are in order. I imagine 'Heartbreak' might be a bonus track. The titles all sound really promising. :D
April 18, 201015 yr I hope that Off & On will be better with the help of Cathy Dennis. After all, she composed "Catch you" for SEB. Other than that, looking forward to the album. :D
April 18, 201015 yr I was gutted when I read that the Buuren track wasn't going to be on the album. Me too. I was so proud that a Dutch DJ would appear on her album. Especially since it's a trance track, so most possibly the best one!
April 18, 201015 yr I hope that Off & On will be better with the help of Cathy Dennis. After all, she composed "Catch you" for SEB. Other than that, looking forward to the album. :D Cathy Dennis wrote the song originally. :lol: The changes will have nothing to do with her. It was originally a Roisin Murphy demo and still a tad wack. :(
April 18, 201015 yr Cathy Dennis wrote the song originally. :lol: The changes will have nothing to do with her. It was originally a Roisin Murphy demo and still a tad wack. :( Oh really? :lol: But I hope that Cathy's magic will work this time around, just 1/10th of what she has done to "Can't get you out of my head" would be enough. :lol:
April 19, 201015 yr Homewrecker (Greg Kurstin, Lindy Robbins, Sophie) *new track* :lol: love this title
April 21, 201015 yr I'm sure those tracks aren't in order, no need to worry yet. The mag will be out on May 10th, in case anyone wants to read what she says about each track.
April 23, 201015 yr Track by Track: Straight To The Heart From Gay Times Maganize Heartbreak Make Me A Dancer - This one was with the Freemasons. I think it's quite a theatrical love song really. I was playing a bit of a diva but it's quite fun. It's one of those things where you've got to take on a slight alter-ego. Bittersweet - It's a genuine raw emotion when something's intoxicated you and you can't really do anything about it. When we've been doing it acoustically it's actually quite romantic. When it's got all the bells and whistles it sounds a bit more saucy. Off And On - A track with Calvin Harris, it was originally written with Roisin Murphy for her record but for one reason or another she felt it didn't fit. Ordinarily I’m a bit squeamish about taking on songs that I didn't write. But I think you've always got to think that you can bring something to it. Revolution - Working with Cathy Dennis was brilliant, I'm a big fan of hers. It's probably one of my tougher songs. It will be a single, it has a different sound to it. I don't know if I rap exactly in the verses but it's quite sort of aggressive and monotone there. It's with this guy called Greg Kurstin who's a really good producer in LA and Cathy does things that you don't think of doing, like in this song I name check 'Murder On The Dancefloor' Starlight - I did this with Richard X and Hannah Robinson and it's one of my favourites. I love it in pop music when it's got a soft of wistful sadness like Giorgio Moroder's always really good at that. This song has definitely got that feel. Magic - Again with Hannah and Richard, and another love song. Sometimes when I'm writing songs I get imagines in my head and with this one I'm always riding a horse, it sounds a bit like I'm galloping somewhere. In the video I've got to do it on horseback. Synchronised - One of a couple of slower numbers which is about trying to get back in tune with a lover you but you probably won't ever do it, so that's got sadness too. I'm always drawn to sad things. It’s actually really hard to write a happy song I find. I have tried it on many occasions and you do achieve it sometimes but it's actually that sadness and heartache and unrequited love have got built-in interest I suppose, a bit more depth. Cut Straight To The Heart - Another slow one, I did this with the lovely Ed Harcourt, a really talented singer/songwriter. This is a really melodic song. He's one of the best lyricists I've ever worked with. I know a lot of people who are good with melody, I think that's one of my strong points. But lyrics, it's just really tough to get a lyric that does exactly what you want it to but he's really good at that. Dial My Number - A song about a text stalker that I have. I've never replied to them but they send me these texts, sending me jokes, sending me my lyrics. Not particularly sinister, but kind of annoying. So it started off as an idea of a song about someone that you're saying "you might have my number but it doesn't mean that anything's gonna happen, so don't get your hopes up." Homewrecker - Another song with a weird subject matter - you can probably guess what Homewrecker's about! (laughs) It's about girls who flirt with your boyfriend right under your nose which is very annoying. And sometimes they're really just oblivious, they're just so happy to have the attention that they don't really realise that they've crossed the line and they'll go "Yeah but she's just a good friend" and you're like "Yeah but I saw the way she laughed at your jokes and I saw the way she put her hand on your arm when she was telling a story and it's not on". Not on! Under Your Touch - A song which is quite a saucy love song really. It's just about fancying someone, which is always a good subject matter. Scene - I did this one with Joe from Metronomy. Actually, Scene was a very instrumental track and it really set the tone. It was written quite early on. It was quite quirky and different and it's just made me think that maybe I've got to try some new stuff here, try something just a bit to push me a bit I suppose so it was a really important track to write. (I know Not Giving Up On Love isn't mentioned here, but Sophie says it's on the album. No reason to worry. It’s a fairground dance track co-written with the Nervo twins and produced by Armin Van Buuren, who is the world’s #1 DJ. It’s a very melodic song)
April 24, 201015 yr Oo Bittersweet as track 4. Never seen a lead single that far down tracklisting! I think Owl City's "Fireflies" was about track 8 on the "Ocean Eyes" album :unsure: Don't think a lead single has ever been further down than that.
April 24, 201015 yr I think Owl City's "Fireflies" was about track 8 on the "Ocean Eyes" album :unsure: Don't think a lead single has ever been further down than that. It depends if by lead you mean 1st single from the album, or the one before the album was released. As if ur going with first single from the album then Play With Fire was track 14 on Hilary Duff's Dignity album....
