<\/strong>is the first single from the album and <strong>Sophie<\/strong> looks stunning in this video.&nbsp; Check out the tattoo!<\/p>\n<p>We always have had an appreciation for <strong>Sophie Ellis-Bextor<\/strong> since she burst onto the music scene with <strong>Groovejet<\/strong> back in 2000.&nbsp; She has a certain charming presence about her that we just love.&nbsp; Her almost commanding, yet polite voice sounds perfect and it&#8217;s just something you don&#8217;t hear everyday in pop music &#8211; all the while she manages to be so elegantly English.&nbsp; We knew <strong>Sophie<\/strong> was something special when we saw her perform at G-A-Y doing her own rendition of <strong>Kim Wilde&#8217;s &#8216;Kids In America&#8217;<\/strong>.&nbsp;
