4 out of 5 stars Another Strong Entry From Ellis-Bextor.......2002-08-19

Sophie Ellis-Bextor's latest single finds her mining the same dancefloor mentality as her two previous solo smashes. While it's hard to beat the should-be classic 'Murder On The Dancefloor', 'Get Over You' provides more proof than Ellis-Bextor is far better suited to disco reflections than some of the more '80s style synth-pop that takes up alot of room on her debut cd. That said, the album's 'Move Any Mountain' is also here, and personally I've never been very fond of the song--she seems to be trying too hard to go for a Dido/Olive musical cross, and I just don't feel it working. Otherwise, this single is another strong entry from one of Britain's more distinctive pop vocalists.

4 out of 5 stars you drive me crazy, up the wall, think you're mr know it all.......2002-07-24

Sophie Ellis-Bextor is one of the most beautiful singers to grace the music scene for quite sometime now (I've heard her referred to as the Audrey Hepburn of dance music), and while beauty is all fine and dandy, we need to have people who can sing putting out albums and singles, rather than just people who look good and happen to be able to carry a tune. Well, Sophie's one of the lucky ones that looks just as good as she sounds! And while some artists are holding back the goods from their fans, Sophie's giving them to us left, right and center! Just look at what you get on this disc:

1) Get Over You (Single Mix) - 3:18 - While Sophie's first two singles have been quite cheeky, this one has a slightly harder edge to it. The edge being that Sophie is telling her ex where to go. You've heard these tracks before - the woman tossing her boyfriend out the door (Gloria Gaynor "I Will Survive", Jessica WIlliams "I Am Woman", anything by Lonnie Gordon), but what makes this one special? I don't know. Probably the fact that it appeals to more than just drag queens! ... The UK record execs put this one up against Kylie's "Love At First Sight" to see which one would place #1 - ultimately, they both lost out to Elvis Presley's latest "A Little Less Conversation (JXL Remix)", but Sophie did place #3! Good show!

2) Move This Mountain (Radio Edit) - 3:47 - Something we haven't seen from Sophie yet. A downtempo track. Don't expect to hear this one on a dancefloor anywhere. While not as instantly catchy as any Sophie track that's been released so far, still quite good. Very dark and moody, I could easily see it on a chill out album of some sort.

3) Live It Up (Acoustic Version) - 4:06 - Ahh, the true test of a singers abilities. Acoustic. Sophie's accompanied only by a guitar, and she shines! I haven't heard the original version of this track, but it sounds as though it could be an uptempo little jam, this version is strictly for easy listening.

4) Get Over You (Max Reich Vocal Mix) - 7:50 - This mix starts out with a dark and sleazy beat with some disco wah wah's thrown in for added spice. More percussion is added to the mix through the two minute intro. Then Sophie comes along. Nice. Have you heard the chorus? "Go, go, go, go, go on get over you. You drive me crazy, up the wall, think you're Mister Know-It-All. Go, go, go, go, go on get over you. Drive me crazy, up the wall, goodbye Mister Know-It-All" Oh it might sound tacky while you're reading it, but it's oh so catchy and sounds much better when Sophie's telling you about it. There's also a skanky breakdown in the middle which sounds very Egyptian. I love this mix.

5) Murder On The Dancefloor (Jewels & Stone Mix Edit) - 4:54 - And here we have my favorite Sophie mix of them all! A delicious slice of sophisticated pop with this one folks. Jewels & Stone also remixed Sophie's first solo single "Take Me Home", it had quite the disco feel to it, as does this one. Unfortunately, the only way to get the full Jewels & Stone mix is on the Canadian cd single of "Murder On The Dancefloor", but this edit is more than enough to satisfy.

so you not only get two mixes of the title track, you get 3 other bonus tracks and TWO music videos "Get Over You" and "Move This Mountain". Could you ask for more? Well we could ask for the Almighty mix which is only available on vinyl so far...
