Comments

I swore off Sophie Ellis-Bextor* with her high-class vocals and peppy retro-pop singles, because she's too damn addictive, yet here I am listening to her latest album. And once again her tunes have started getting stuck in my head, spontaneously playing when I least expect it. Particularly insideous in this regard is "If I Can't Dance", which now regularly haunts me on the way to and from work. This album is great!

It's also very retro - "Only One" could just about be 50's vintage rock and roll and "Supersonic" needs a black and white Flash Gordon-esque music video.
