Comments

The live concert (recorded at Shepherds Bush Empire and approximately an hour long) goes off. Sound quality is great, and the editing a lot better than the Björk concert recorded at the same place. This also includes "Sparkle" and "Final Move", neither of which was included on the NZ version of Read My Lips. The performance of Groovejet appears to be the same live version from that album though. Watch out for the cute audience shot with a couple kissing as Sophie sings "Take Me Home".

Also included are all the music videos from the Read My Lips album, plus three videos from TheAudience, a group Sophie was lead singer for. The latter are quite a different more angsty style to her solo albums and have lower production values, but are still pretty good.

In the setup, there's an option to turn Sophie on and off, but it didn't seem to make any difference. Odd.

I, for one, welcome our new fetish-clothed Auton masters
