Read My Lips (Sophie Ellis-Bextor Album) - Singles

Singles

In August 2001, the album's lead single, "Take Me Home", a cover of the disco-era song originally recorded by Cher in 1979, was released, peaking at #2 on the UK Singles Chart. The album was released two weeks later, and in December 2001, a second single from the album, "Murder on the Dancefloor", was released to massive success, being recognized up to this date as Ellis-Bextor's signature song.

In early 2002, it was revealed that Ellis-Bextor had recorded two brand new songs, entitled "Get Over You" and "Music Gets The Best Of Me", however, she was unsure what release they would appear on. When it was announced that "Get Over You", would be released as a double A-side single with "Move This Mountain", a track that appears on Read My Lips, fans were puzzled as to why Ellis-Bextor was releasing a double A-side which contained one track which did not appear on the album. However, all soon became clear when a re-issue of the album arrived on 17 June 2002, complete with the two brand new tracks, and the inclusion of her Spiller collaboration "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)" in a live version, which was not included on the first issue of the album. "Music Gets the Best of Me", was subsequently released as a single in November 2002, peaking at #14 on the UK Singles Chart.
