| Sophie Jones or Sophie Ellis-Bextor? |
On The Feeling's latest weekly catch up, Richard explained if Sophie's name comes up on bills as Sophie
Jones or Sophie Ellis-Bextor: "OK, well if you were to be paid by Sophie's credit card, then you would be paid by Sophie Jones.
She's obviously kept Ellis-Bextor as her stage name, but I can confirm that she's taken the Jones moniker in the banking sense".

| Ellis-Bextos is in the building |
Earlier today, I had a very nice phone call with the returning queen of all things Frostypop, Ms Sophie
Ellis-Bextor. Now, she's been away for a while, raising her little boy Sonny with her hubby Richard. You may have got to know Richard a little better
recently as the bass player with a new band called the Feeling, who've done quite well. You might even have heard one or two of their songs, in passing...
Here's just some of the exciting things I discovered:- Sophie likes to dress her son up as a penguin.
- She likes to wear his dressing up
clothes too.
- She would like to end her days as a bitter old hag on the arm of her famous rock star husband.
- She wants record companies to
run more of their decisions about other artists past her before they go ahead.
- She doesn't even know how to change the background colour on a
MySpace page (GOD! THE SHAME!)
Listen to the whole thing yourself, right here...

| Sophie is 'down with love' |
Source: Mobius News
Sophie Ellis Bextor is back with a brand new single Catch You
this month. It's a fusion of electro pop meets indie rock, but that's not really what we're excited about.
It's the b-side Down With
Love that leaves us in anticipation, as it was done with supreme pop producers Jewels & Stone.
There are also a couple of remixes of
Catch You by Moto Blanco a.o. but unfortunately these will be download only, as the single is only a 2-tracker.
