It was released by Polydor Records on 27 October 2003, and was produced by Gregg Alexander, Matt Rowe, Jeremy Wheatley and Damian LeGassick. ==Background== The album was released in Europe in October 2003, but little interest was generated outside the United Kingdom, where the album peaked at #19 on the UK Albums Chart, with the exception of Switzerland, where it peaked at #35 on the Swiss Albums Chart. The album was regarded as the singer's least commercially successful album until the release of her fourth studio album, ''Make a Scene'', which only reached #33. The album only produced two singles—"Mixed Up World" and "I Won't Change You"—which reached #7 and #9 on the UK Singles Chart respectively. Apart from "Murder on the Dancefloor", none of Ellis-Bextor's solo material was released in the US until June 2007, when ''Shoot from the Hip'' was added to the American iTunes Store. The songs "I Won't Dance with You" and "The Walls Keep Saying Your Name" feature backing vocals from Ellis-Bextor's ex-boyfriend and ex-manager, Andy Boyd, although his name does not appear anywhere in the album credits. Similarly to "Sparkle" and "Final Move" missing from the worldwide version of ''Read My Lips'', the international edition of ''Shoot from the Hip'' does not include the opening track "Making Music", "I Won't Dance with You" nor the hidden track following the end of "Hello, Hello", a cover of Olivia Newton-John's "Physical". The international edition also changes all text on the cover, disc and in the booklet to the shade of turquoise instead of the white used on the UK release. In 2014, Ellis-Bextor reflected on the album to ''Attitude'' magazine, saying "The second album still had the same feel as the first, but it was maybe a little bit darker. During that record I was going through a bit of a break-up so there are a few break-up songs on there. I wasn't feeling quite as funny and breezy as I was on the first album, but I got it back on album three." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shoot from the Hip」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
