Sophie Ellis-Bextor Gets The Feeling

Sophie Ellis-Bextor is preparing to do battle on the pop charts again in 2007 and has roped in her hubby's band to help.

Mr Ellis-Bextor, aka bassist Richard from The Feeling told MTV.co.uk the boys have sprinkled their magic on a couple of his missus's new tunes.

"It was good fun, we're like a big family really," he said. "If you listen to the tracks in a song-writing sense then you'll be able to hear our influence and the way that Dan (Gillespie, The Feeling frontman) has worked with it. But stylistically the tracks are nothing like us at all."

The proud husband added, "It's disco-pop but in a modern context - what Sophie does best. It's brilliant, definitely her best album to date."

Sophie releases new single 'Catch You' in February 2007 and the album 'Trip The Light Fantastic' in April.

We're looking to forward to a bit of Ellis-Bextor glam back on the hit parade...
