Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Read my Lips album cover | |||||||||||||||
Read My Lips is the debut album released by pop singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor. Released on August 27, 2001 by Polydor. The title was presumed to be based on a quote by U.S. president George H. W. Bush from his 1992 campaign in which he said he wouldn't raise taxes; actually, it's simply based on a line from the song "The Universe Is You". It sold 816,358 copies in the United Kingdom and a little over 2 million copies worldwide, it became a success in Europe selling over a million copies being certified Platinum, it was also successful in Australia and Latin America. The album was first released in 2001, but after the success of the single "Murder on the Dancefloor", Polydor (in the United Kingdom) and Universal (International) decided to re-release the album with extra tracks to push the sales up, the re-issue was released in 2002. The re-issued album included three new tracks ("Music Gets the Best of Me", "Get Over You", and a live version of "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)").
"Take Me Home" and "Murder on the Dancefloor" were released as singles in 2001 and both became substantial UK Top three hits, the latter staying on the charts for several months. These singles were followed in 2002 by "Music Gets the Best of Me" and "Get Over You"/"Move This Mountain" two further hit singles. Track listing: 1.
