Album Title and Artwork
During an interview with ShowBiz.ie, Ellis-Bextor explained her reasons behind naming the album. "I did pick it for a few reasons. I thought it was quite a good poppy title. I'm very interested in the look of things and having the make up and I always have quite strong lipstick, especially for the album artwork and the first video. It's also kind of a way of emphasising the fact that I do care about what I'm singing. I quite like that double thing. Also there isn't a song called "Read My Lips". I don't like it when there's an album track called the title. I think it's like singling one out to be better than the others. "Read My Lips" was originally a lyric for "Take Me Home" that I discarded. It's the opening lyric to "Universe Is You"."
