Sophie Ellis Bextor’s Friday Night Disco

Has she done her #3 Get Over You yet? I don’t recall but could have been not paying attention. It shows how popular she was at one stage that she could take that song (which I do like) to the top 3.

'Get Over You' is amazing

Oh she has definitely done Get Over You. Think it was one I caught up with so either the first or second week.

I've always loved Get Over You, it was Music Gets the Best of Me that I was slightly meh about at the time.
 
These really do continue to deliver every week. Her YouTube views are pretty great all round. Is she big in Russia? A lot of the comments on her videos are in Russian
 
She is- wasn’t one of her albums first released in Russia before a wider release? I might be making that up.

The whole latter era “Russian” styling can’t have done her any damage there either.
 
I haven't seen tonight's yet but apparently she is doing one more and that's yer lot.

Shame they are ending but probably best not to overdo it.
 
I wonder if she will do more of a GH show next week for the final one.

If we are still talking the deep cuts than New Flame please (or Synchronised but that is probably a bit slow).
 
Last one + encore




Bless Sonny. Silently mortified to the end. :D

I do wonder who was holding the camera at the end, though? Does she really have some Rosario-esque live-in nanny that she's never bothered to acknowledge for all this time?
 
It was her 17 year old niece filming. She was perfectly happy to jump on a pony and trek across the large family-owned plot to film Sophie plying her awful children with calpol sedatives and grinning with gritted teeth through Take Me Home (again), so she thought, why put somebody else at risk if family was volunteering? :angel: Anyway Rosario stopped coming since Sophie tried to pay her wages in framed bronze-certified picture discs.

She's also got a disgusting sounding podcast just started as well. Those discos were great promo.
 
I wonder what covers she’ll add? She did most of them really well. Actually a disco themed take on covers may have been a better idea.
 
An album of her GH with some trashy disco covers I'm here for. The gigs could be fun
 
:D

A tour, an album, a podcast AND AN INJURY :disco:

Today the sun's on you Sophie, milk that cow dry :D

Incidentally that artwork and tour poster are absolutely HIDEOUS, but I'm assuming intentionally so.
HIGH ART doesn't sell tickets (or albums), as the orchestra album proved :D
 
I’m still CRYING at “big mistake” at doing gigs the week before Eurovision semi finals. NOT EVERY POOF GOES HALFWAY ACROSS THE WORLD PRETENDING TO BE A JOURNALIST FOR A WEBSITE NO ONE READS WHILST USING UP ALL THEIR ANNUAL LEAVE IN ONE GO TO WATCH THE SAME SHOW THIRTEEN TIMES AT EVERY REHEARSAL*.

(*- Sorry, Kala, I know you like it, sweetie)
 
The first busy, successful woman Sophie is speaking to on her podcast is Fearne Cotton.

I'M OUT

It wasn't me that said it! And I'm sure you'd be a wee bit MIFFED if a gig clashed with an Olympic final or Athletics competition which means you couldn't go. But these things happen. It's only a gig. I'd have loved to have gone to Glasgow but I am flying out to Rotterdam on the SAME DAY.
 
Yeah, but I wouldn’t be heralding it as a “big mistake” if she decided to pop out and do a few songs ten days before the women’s 400m hurdles heats, love!
 
Also @Sheena, no one slags you off when you take 2 weeks holiday to watch the Olympics or Athletics or anything else you're interested in. This is the SAME THING. I'm sure if you could get a press pass and be able to chat to some of the athletes, you'd JUMP at the chance.

It's not your bag, WE GET IT, but just let others enjoy what they want in their free time.
 
Charity shops? Hardly any of them are open here. All those fucking selfish pensioners continuing to preserve their own lives instead of opening up so Shee can get fingering Shirley Bassey and Petula Clark.
