Trip the Light Fantastic (Sophie Ellis-Bextor album)
''Trip the Light Fantastic'' is the third solo album by British pop singer-songwriter Sophie Ellis-Bextor. It was released on 21 May 2007 following the release of the lead single, "Catch You" and the second single, "Me and My Imagination". The album was available to stream via the internet on 18 May 2007, three days before the official release date. It debuted on the UK Albums Chart at #7, however, fell out of the Top 40 after just three weeks.
"Today the Sun's on Us" was the third single released from the album on 13 August 2007, and such caused the album to re-enter the UK Albums Chart at #39. In an interview with Digital Spy, Sophie confirmed that the fourth single from the album was to be "If I Can't Dance", and on 5 May 2008, the single was released exclusively via the iTunes Store. The song also appeared on the soundtrack to the film ''St Trinian's''.
The album is a mixture of dance-pop, electropop and disco genres. It received mostly positive reviews from music critics, with many commending the album for being an enjoyable, "glossy" dance record. The album became Sophie's second album to be available digitally in the United States.
==Background==
In an interview for Digital Spy, Ellis-Bextor claimed she recorded four duets for the album, however, decided not to include any of them on request of her record label. Despite this, Dan Gillespie Sells provides backing vocals for two songs on the album, and Fred Schneider provides backing vocals on another. Originally, Ellis-Bextor claimed she would not appear on the album's cover, however, she later claimed that she had changed her mind. She commented, "It's sparkly, but hopefully it's got a bit more depth than just a nice picture of me on the cover!"〔(Sophie Update )〕 Ellis-Bextor worked on the album with someone she regarded as "a French guy named Dimitri", who was rumoured to be Dimitri from Paris, but turned out to be Dimitri Tikovoi.〔(A guy called Dimitri (Sophie) ) ''SophieEllisBextor.com'' Retrieved 11 August 2012〕 She also worked on the album with her ex-band mate Kerin Smith, of theaudience.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sophie-online.net/en/projects/disco/ttlf.php )〕 The opening line in "If I Can't Dance" is, according to Sophie in an interview for The Times website, a famous quote by feminist anarchist Emma Goldman.〔 She also revealed that she wrote around eighty songs for the album, and later admitted, "That's how many demos exist. Overall, it's probably knocking on for triple figures I'd say."〔 She revealed that she had plans to release a song called "Hype", which sampled Kraftwerk's "The Model", but the record label denied her permission.〔 Following its release in Australia, the album went top ten on the Australian iTunes pop albums chart and top forty on the main albums chart, but failed to chart on the ARIA Charts.
