'Murder On The Dance Floor' will without doubt prove to be the strongest single to come from Sophie's debut album 'Read My Lips'. With its punchy beat and assured vocals Ms Ellis-Bextor delivers a superb tongue in check disco anthem. The addition of a string section enhances the production values of the track and gives it that touch of class missing in so many of her contemporaries' dance output. The song works not only for Sophie's expanding fan base of thirty something males but will also become a firm favourite with groups of young female karaoke devotees for years to come

4.0 out of 5 stars This is an excellent song, she is also gorgeous in the video, 11 Jan 2002

By A Customer

Read my lips i thought is a great album although it has been criticized loads, the lyrics are very catchy especially murder on the dancefloor,which is a brilliant song with loads of energy. Sophie is also very gorgeous in this as she is anyway. This is well worth buying the remix of murder on the dancefloor is also good.

5.0 out of 5 stars W, O, W!!!, 6 April 2002

By	chicken_bacon@yahoo.fr (Montr�al, Canada) - See all my reviews

This single is the best buy of a lifetime! This is the first time I actually give a single 5 stars, but how well deserved! Everything is perfect, the lyrics of the title track are exquisite, the music is awesome enough to make any composer jaelous, the art direction of the CD is very well done... Sophie Ellis-Bextor has a lovely voice, soft but expressive, and seems to be very strong-headed. The video is one of the best you will ever see, if not the best, you will enjoy watching it over, over and over again, especially if you like dancing and trying new tricks...

The remix of the title track is very interesting, and the B-side "Never Let Me Down" sounds a little bit like a 80's song... Again, very innovative and naive � la Bextor...

Furthermore, the whole "Murder On The Dancefloor" concept is very humoristic, with a touch of class... Sweet, refreshing and perfect...
