Sophie Ellis-Bextor

[atypical_boro]

Number 2 on the UK singles chart, 23 years after the song's release, and her first top ten hit of the digital era.

I haven't heard of any of the other songs in the charts mind, though I assume the Taylor Swift number is a cover of the Banarama classic. Is there ever a week goes by she's not in the top 10?

 

[Centralscrutinizer]

I didn't know there were still charts

 

[Glover_elbow]

Yes please still would

 

[Brian Marwood]

Which one? How Does it Feel so Good or Murdered on The Dancefloor?

Murder* yes

Assume on the back of Saltburn? - nice payday for Soph!

 

[atypical_boro]

Yes please still would

My mate once had to X-ray her.

He probably shouldn't have told me, like.

 

[Brian Marwood]

Yes please still would

Until halfway through you start to see her as David Coulthard.

You assume wrong :)

 

[atypical_boro]

You assume wrong :)

What a con!

Mind you, she knows how to reel folk in.

Why is it a con?

Some bassline on that. Guy Pratt, he of Madonna's 'Like A Prayer' fame.

Always thought she'd have asked her husband to play it (he's the bassist in the Feeling), prob a record company thing as he's also a pretty handy player (he does it live for her).

I wasn't being entirely serious.

Your mate has seen the inside of Sophie Ellis-Bextor? That's not the sort of thing you keep to yourself.

Ah, ok, can never be entirely sure on this board.

If you think TS is never out of the top 10 here have a look at the Billboard top 100 in the USA. It was only a few months ago that she had the entire top 10.

The Vapours had a song about that sort of thing

You mean, Groovejet (if this aint love), I assume ?

The songs lyrics dont even say "How does it feel so good" :D

Yep, fair to say she's done quite well for herself.

The first tune mentioned there is actually called Groovjet by Spiller. SEB sang the lyrics and it’s a banging house tune.

Beat me to it! I should have read the rest of the thread.
