In 1965 [the Byrds] toured England and Paul invited us to his club, the Scotch of St James’s [sic]. He sent a limo to pick us up. He said he had been listening to our music. We were blown away. He took us for a ride through London in his Aston Martin, at great speed. He was really hip, he and John were so tight it was like one person at times. Unlike the Byrds, [where] Crosby would just leave you out to dry, the Beatles all defended each other to the hilt. If you criticised, say, George then they would all respond.

[—Roger McGuinn, in Paul McCartney: Now & Then, Tony Barrow and Robin Bextor]

[John and Paul] sort of had their own way of communicating. Hardly anything was spoken, they just knew what the other wanted or was getting at and they had the most amazing talent. […] Paul was an awesome musical presence. He was, like, ten feet tall with music and it was everything: folk, rock, musical hall, choral, it was all there. He was like a different animal with Lennon. When they were together they became something else, more than just the two of them together. That communication was incredible. It was like two high-speed computers just fizzing between each other.

[—Steve Miller, in Paul McCartney: Now & Then, Tony Barrow and Robin Bextor]

Beatles defending each other ❤️

In 1965 [the Byrds] toured England and Paul invited us to his club, the Scotch of St James’s [sic]. He sent a limo to pick us up. He said he had been listening to our music. We were blown away. He took us for a ride through London in his Aston Martin, at great speed. He was really hip, he and John were so tight it was like one person at times. Unlike the Byrds, [where] Crosby would just leave you out to dry, the Beatles all defended each other to the hilt. If you criticised, say, George then they would all respond.

Roger McGuinn, in Paul McCartney: Now & Then, Tony Barrow and Robin Bextor

“They’re four very different people who together form a unit that is virtually impregnable. If, for instance, someone should find fault with anything one of them has done, the others rush to his defence. They close their ranks. They’re very close indeed. A lot closer than people think.”

George Martin, Disc and Music Echo (1967)

And actually, we’ve got the image of him all these years about criticising Paul – yeah, he did, but it’s like [when] you criticise your wife. “I can criticise her, but you can’t.” I was there once when some guy was saying that he didn’t think ‘Let It Be’ was such a great record, and he thought John would agree, and he didn’t.

November 10th, 2009: Journalist Ray Connolly

Q: How did Paul react [to “How Do You Sleep”]?

John: I don’t know because I never saw him, but I think he made a comment last year which was pretty spot-on which was ‘whatever I’m saying about him is my problem, or vice versa.’ The only regret I have about it is that it should never have been about Paul because everybody’s so bothered with who’s it about that they missed the track. That’s what bugged me. I’m entitled to call him what I want to, and vice versa. It’s in our family, but if somebody else calls him names I won’t take it. It’s our own business. And anyway, it’s like Dylan said about his stuff when he looked back on it, it was all about him.

Patrick Synder-Scrumpy with Jack Breschard, “Sometime in L.A., Lennon Plays It as It Lays.” Crawdaddy [March 1974]

"When John did 'How Do You Sleep?' I didn't want to get into a slinging match. Part of it was cowardice. John was a great wit, and I didn't want to go fencing with the rapier champion of East Cheam-- But it meant that I had to take shit--It meant that I had to take lines like 'All you ever did was Yesterday.' I always find myself wanting to excuse John's behavior, just because I loved him. It's like a child, sure he was a naughty child, but don't you call my child naughty. Even if it's me he's shitting on, don't you call him naughty. That's how I felt about this and still do. I don't have a grudge whatsoever against John. I think he knew exactly what he was doing, and, because we had been so intimate, he knew what would hurt me and used it to great effect. I thought, 'Keep your head down and time will tell,' and it did because in the 'Imagine' film (Imagine John Lennon, documentary), he says it was really all about himself."

Barry Miles, Many Years From Now, 1997

“Well the deal was, he could say that, but if you said that, if anybody said anything bad about Paul, John’d take a swing at you. He’d say “you can’t talk about Paul like that”, Paul was his best buddy. If you were talking to Paul and you said something derogatory about John, he’d get up and leave. Paul was more of a peaceful guy, but John had that hot head, and he’d say “you wanna talk about Paul? Let’s go”. You weren’t allowed to say anything bad about John or Paul to each one of them because they would defend each other to the nth degree, which I liked, because you could tell they were attached at the hip.

Alice Cooper Live and Uncut on the Kim Mitchell Show

You know, John loved Paul. No doubt about it. I remember once he said to me, “I’m the only person who’s allowed to say things like that about Paul. I don’t like it when other people do.” He didn’t like if other people said nasty things about Paul. And he always referred to Paul as his estranged fiancé and things like that, like he did on that [live] record ‘I Saw Her Standing There’ with Elton in Madison Square Garden. And he knew that his relationship with Paul was very important to him. But you know, like all great friendships, they’d grown apart and married different people and had different lives. He knew what he didn’t like about Paul, but he also knew what he liked about Paul.

1990: Former Beatles publicist Tony King

George didn’t mind slagging Paul off. But he HATED other people doing it.

TRENDING - House in Pop

definition

House is a genre of electronic dance music characterized by a repetitive four-on-the-floor beat and a typical tempo of 120-130 beats per minute as a re-emergence of 1970s disco. It was created by DJs and music producers from Chicago's underground club culture and evolved slowly in the early/mid-1980s, as DJs began altering disco songs to give them a more mechanical beat. By early 1988, House became mainstream and supplanted the typical 80s music beat. - Wikipedia

Break My Soul by Beyoncé (2022)

Chromatica by Lady Gaga (2020)

and more!

origins

Similar to the actual origins of house music, we can credit the current trend of house in pop to the popularity of disco pop (also known as nu-disco) in the mid-2010s - 2020. The first wave of nu-disco was in the early 2000s (see Kylie Minogue, Sophie Ellis-Bextor) but its second wave is what is responsible for the house resurgence today.

Kickstarted by Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" and piqued by "Get Lucky" by Daft Punk, 2013 was the year that brought disco pop back from the dead. Its popularity waned as the 2010s came to a close and then peaked back up again in 2020 thanks to hits like "Say So" by Doja Cat and "Don't Start Now" by Dua Lipa.

Then, 2 months after the release of the disco-laden Future Nostalgia, Lady Gaga released Chromatica, pioneering the house pop revival of the 20s. Unfortunately, the pandemic stifled this era. Clubs, THE house for house music, were closed so who knows just how big songs like "Babylon" and "Sour Candy" could've been had they been on rotation at queer nightclubs instead of streamed in isolation at home. It wasn't until Beyoncé's "Break My Soul" in June 2022* did we see this sound dominate in pop, becoming Beyoncé's 8th solo #1. Plus, the clubs were reopened so house music was allowed to thrive in its home once again and catch on with those even outside its doors.

It's fitting that a genre created for Black, Brown, and queer audiences amid a deadly epidemic would be revived during a deadly pandemic to remind us to forget the haters and celebrate life.*

forecast

Even though it is currently trending, house is forever. It will ebb and flow but its influence and sound on music is permanent. It's too good to go away entirely. That said, we may only score just one more house pop hit from a pop diva (looking at you Katy Perry) before a seismic shift in pop culture happens. We are at the midway point of the decade (Already?!!!) so dramatic changes in trends, music, etc. are bound to occur. It's telling that Ariana Grande's latest release was met with a divisive reception, with some of this being due to the drama surrounding her personal relationship and some of this being that people just do not like the sound, deriding it as "H&M music." Disco pop is already in its decline so house pop will probably follow.

*It's worth noting that Drake took a career turn and released a house album just days before "Break My Soul." It wasn't good though so honestly, nevermind.

*Babylon, Break My Soul, Problematique, and yes, and all share this sentiment. There are many reasons why house music is the appropriate genre for this message, but the most obvious reason is that this message resonates most strongly with queer audiences.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor: 'I thought I might become a laughing stock'

.

The kitchen disco queen tells The Telegraph on how she dropped that icy image (without losing the posh voice), her Christmas gift gaffe, and making Mog sing

"I've always been much sillier than people thought I was," says Sophie Ellis-Bextor from the stage of the Hammersmith Apollo, midway through her Christmas Kitchen Disco Tour. It's a tinseltastic live show which sees the 44-year-old pop star belting out a glorious mix of festive and disco classics from astride a white plastic horse, telling cracker jokes with a martini in her hand and wearing such a glittering array of costumes she becomes a human bauble.

But, days later, Zooming from a back bedroom of the London home she shares with her husband Richard Jones, the bassist of The Feeling, and their five sons aged between four and 19, Ellis-Bextor admits that when she first became famous in the early Noughties, singing such hits as Groovejet (If This Ain't Love) and Murder on the Dancefloor, she felt "safer" hiding behind a poutier persona.

Looking back, she says, that aloof image "felt like a bit of padding around my real personality. It helped me feel it didn't matter if my pop career didn't last long, because I hadn't given my whole self away. But it's been really lovely to slowly relax and allow my public image to become more like my real self"

Although the thawing of Ellis-Bextor's icy image began with her appearance on Strictly Come Dancing in 2013 (when she and her dance partner Brendan Cole reached the final), she only really melted into her true self during the pandemic. Her weekly live-streamed Kitchen Disco gigs made her one of lockdown's national heroes. While Joe Wicks tried to make us do PE, Ellis-Bextor and her kids bopped beneath a mirrorball, karaoking through her own tracks and upbeat covers. I can still see her in leotard, fluffy koala mask and vertiginous white platform heels, trying not to slip on food dropped by her toddler, Mickey, while her other boys were visible through the patio door, bouncing on a trampoline in the garden.

Privately, she was grieving for her stepfather, who died in July 2020, while struggling with homeschooling - and "music just lifted the mood".

But she worried how the gigs would be received.

"After the first one I thought I might become a bit of a laughing stock," she says. "I didn't know how other people were feeling. They might have thought: 'What are you doing, putting on sequins?! That's a bit inappropriate.' But nobody ever said that."

Born in 1979, Ellis-Bextor is the daughter of former Blue Peter presenter Janet Ellis and TV producer Robin Bextor. They split up when she was four years old. I ask Ellis-Bextor if - like so many British kids - she spent childhood Decembers making Blue Peter Christmas crafts, but she shakes her head. "My mum and dad separated just as she started doing Blue Peter, so my early memories of Christmas were figuring out how it was all going to work." It took the birth of her half-brother - born to Janet and her second husband, TV producer John Leach, when she was eight - to mark "a shift into Christmases being really positive. Then my little [half] sister came along too. That's when things became really warm and twinkly?"

Ellis-Bextor began her pop career in indie band Theaudience, recording songs with titles such as A Pessimist Is Never Disappointed. Readers of Melody Maker magazine voted her the Sexiest Person in Rock. It was all a bit of a whirlwind.

"I had a record deal at 18 and lost it at 20," she says.

After she returned as a solo artist in 2000, she was determined to do things her way, notably by singing in her own, slightly posh English accent, a rarity in the crowded field of dance-pop.

"Singing as I speak felt like the only way to do it," she tells me.

"I don't want to be one of those singers who's singing about being really sad with a massive grin on my face. Changing my accent would make the emotion feel a little bit showbiz."

Her crisp, slightly old-fashioned RP tones make her the perfect fit to sing the theme tune for Mog's Christmas, Channel 4's new animation of Judith Kerr's classic picture book. It's made by the same team as the adaptation of Kerr's The Tiger Who Came to Tea which became Channel 4's third highest-rating programme of 2019.

Ellis-Bextor is looking forward to snuggling up with her three younger sons (Mickey, four, Jesse, eight, and Ray, 11) to watch it on Christmas Eve.

Her husband cooks a mean Christmas dinner - "he nails the roast potatoes" - and is "also really good at picking presents"; she has worse form when buying gifts for him.

"For our first Christmas together - when we hadn't been dating that long but I was already pregnant - I panicked and got him an inflatable room." She drops her face into her hands. "What was I thinking? I don't think we ever even fully inflated it. We tried once. It took ages. We got bored. We gave up. It sat in my mum's shed for a while and then got moved on."

I imagine Ellis-Bextor and Jones have quite a musical Christmas but she scoffs at the thought.

"We're not a sing-along-around-the-piano kind of family," she says. "We'll have a playlist instead."

Mog's Christmas is on Channel 4 at 7.45pm on Christmas Eve.

Let’s get to know our animanga fandom mutuals/followers better? 💕

01. how did you find out about anime? Since childhood? Tmi time hey! My first anime were when I was about 5-6, Sailor Moon (it was on tv every afternoon, super badly dubbed but I lived for it) and Attack No. 1 (this one was on every Sunday morning and my dad used to watch it with me); I watched Inuyasha and Tokyo Mew Mew in highschool a lot, and then I started reading the manga my friends back then used to. I got back into it more when I was 19 due to a friend recommending me Ouran Highschool Host Club. And Death Note was ridiculously popular at uni lmao quite questionable how so many law students loved Light but hey ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ c'est la vie

02. what’s your favorite anime? Hmm hard to say. I'll focus first on anime only and not anime based on manga, because that's an entire different thing. So... Free! I would say Free! is honestly my absolute favourite because it hit home with some stuff when it first aired. I related with Haruka a lot. Additionally, it's anime only so it suits this category best! I also enjoyed the visuals and animation of K Project a lot; they were surreal. And if I'm going for anime based on manga (I generally prefer the manga honestly) I would say Natsume Yuujinchou, Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun and Fma:b have some of the best anime adaptations. Kny anime is doing well so far too!! For anime based on games, Utapri and Amnesia were great.

03. do you have a favorite j-music/k-pop group/singer?  Miyavi, Taeyeon, SNSD, BiSH, The Oral Cigarettes, EXO, Shinhwa, Orange Caramel

04. when is your bday? and how old are you? 9 october // 31 years old (the pandemic birthdays shouldn't count, so I should be 29 forever still)

05. currently, what is your favorite fandom anime? World Trigger, Kny and Jjk

06. despite the ups and downs on tumblr, what motivates you to stay here today and do your best? Out of sheer spite. Lololol. Honestly even if I go on hiatus sometimes, I can't see myself ever leaving this website for good. I met some of my best and closest friends here, and I'm still connecting with new friends about new interests, so it's a nice little happy corner. My grandchildren will inherit my canon urls, I kid you not. Truthfully, no other social media can ever compare.

07. finally create yourself in this picrew: link

Tagging (for either/or and only if you want, no pressure!!) 💕 @misakarose 💕 @spike-spiegels 💕 @ozvasselius 💕 @reigenphobe 💕 @childeapologist 💕 @kurozero 💕@keikuns 💕

idk if this is at all relevant to what you're looking for (idk if you're digging into robin's relationships with other people or not) but the deer and the wolf by sophie ellis-bextor is the most robin/nancy song i've ever heard (platonically or otherwise)

oooh i think that'll go on my 2nd ronance playlist i'm working on 🙏 ty for sharing

Pete Best on his first impressions of Paul and the band dynamic in Hamburg:

Paul struck me at the time as being very confident, very humorous. And this was before I’d seen him performing. It was just the way he handled himself—he’d do anything for a little bit of a laugh. If there was a laugh going on he wanted to be part of it, it was like, “don’t take the attention away from me because I’m still a part of it, anything which is going on I want to be in it.” Humour was a big forte with them in those days, especially John and himself. But it was always, I wouldn’t say a battle, but it was interesting for me sitting at the back when they were performing—which goes a little bit away from my first impression of them—but actually to see them play off one another. You know, if John did something and it got the crowd laughing then Paul would automatically respond, you know, to get something, to get the crowd back to him again. And it went on like that but it was, from where I sat, it was great because the crowd was entertained all the time. […] It was always a two-man show between John and Paul. On some nights Paul would come out on top, and on other nights John would come out on top. What we would do, we would be quite interested to see, like, you know, who was going to win the cup tonight. The funny thing was it wasn’t something which finished on stage, it wasn’t like here we are—six, seven hours an night acting—then, when we came off stage we became different people. It sort of spilled over, it became our lifestyle, you know, our life pattern. The crazy antics would happen on the street, you know, you would have Paul walking up and down the Reeperbahn with a silver toupee on his head, you know, wanting to draw attention to himself. And you’d have John walking down doing the goose step. We were catapulting over one another, rolling, somersaulting on the street. It was like the stage show went on, we’d finished playing the music, but the Beatles were still on show. I think that was why the people of Hamburg took to us.

Lockdown's dancing queen: Sophie Ellis Bextor explains how she's survived with five sons while performing web concerts from her kitchen - and owes her life to the NHS after almost dying during childbirth

SOURCE: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8371137/Sophie-Ellis-Bextor-talks-surviving-lockdown-five-sons-performing-concerts-kitchen.html

Any mother of five who is still sane after two-and-a-half months of lockdown will surely have some survival tips for the rest of us. And Sophie Ellis-Bextor does indeed have advice.

Come Friday night, when the textbooks have been flung in a corner and you've finished screeching at the kids, you should dig out your heels and put on your sparkliest hot pants, she says.

'If you don't own a sequined one-piece, you should get one,' the singer insists. 'They make you feel like a disco superhero!'

She would also recommend a glitterball to hang in the kitchen. It will distract from the dirty dishes, she says.

Tidying the kitchen is optional, though: 'I do try to but if there's the odd dish in the sink, who cares?'

When the history of the great British lockdown is written, there will be villains (take a bow, Dominic Cummings) and heroes.

And Sophie Ellis-Bextor will surely be in line for a medal, for services to the national dancefloor (kitchen disco division).

Every Friday night for ten weeks she has donned her own glad rags and, via the magic of social media, invited us all to a disco round at hers.

She has been in charge of the mic, singing her own hits (with tweaks) and cover versions of some of her other favourites (speaking of favourite things, she even does a mean Julie Andrews).

Each week she has changed the lyrics of one of her biggest hits, Take Me Home, to the lockdown-friendly Stay At Home. We cheered. We heeded. 'Well, most people did,' she says.

Lots of entertainers have been doing their stuff in lockdown. Few of them have done so with five children in tow, though, and with such pizzazz.

You'd never guess it from the size of her waist but 41-year-old Sophie — whose mother is former Blue Peter presenter Janet Ellis — has five sons, aged from 16 down to 16 months. Her family life has never really been a part of her work.

But at the start of lockdown, something changed and she decided to stop being so precious about the work/home life divide.

'I've always been quite private, never showing the kids' faces, that sort of thing,' she says.

'But suddenly it all felt totally irrelevant. I just had this desire to sort of connect with people, to have fun and do something that just distracted us all — and for me, as an entertainer, that meant getting up and putting on a show.

'If it was going to be a show in my own house, the kids had to be involved as we're all locked down together. That overwhelmed any other emotion, really.

'I said to them, 'We're going to have a party. Do you want to come? What do you want to wear?'

'We pulled out all manner of sequined things we already had. They got out costumes, hats, whatever. There were no rules. They could be in their pyjamas if they wanted, because they often are.

'At the end of the first one, I remember making a joke like, 'This could be the end of my career.' '

In another time, it could have been. What too-cool-for-school singer sashays around the Lego, for goodness' sake? And what pop star hoicks a baby onto her hip, limbos around the lightsabers or attempts some sexy strutting when there is a pint-sized Superman in the way?

'It has been quite surreal, hasn't it?' she says with a laugh. 'But this whole situation is surreal, so I guess it has been fitting.

'We've had all sorts — the kids joining in, or sitting there bored with it all as I dance around them. We've had the baby crawling across the floor, trying to pull the plug out of the router. It's not stuff you normally have to contend with when you go on stage.'

And the performances have been all the more magical for it, I suggest. Her kitchen discos have been in keeping with the national mood, which lurches between delirium and despair and involves much trying to get on with the day job, with the kids at our feet.

All our kids are represented in hers, too. There is Sonny, 16 and a typical teenager, who mostly rolls his eyes at the idea of being in his mum's disco 'but actually he's invaluable because he helps with the baby so I can relax'.

Kit, 11, has 'kind of dipped in and out of the discos. He has missed a few. Sometimes he'd just rather do something else'.

Ray, eight, and Jesse, four, are generally game for anything — but if the children all join in at the same time, while wearing masks, the potential for chaos is high.

Last is baby Mickey, who likes to reach for bright lights. And cables. And sparkly shoes.

'I think what has kept some people tuning in is the music, but others are only watching to see if any of my kids injure themselves,' Sophie says.

People may also be tuning in to see her game attempts at making the most inappropriate songs kid-friendly. Her new repertoire includes the highly suggestive Prince song Gett Off. If the kids ask, it's a song about getting off the climbing frame, she explains.

When we speak, Sophie is preparing for — sob! — the last lockdown disco. Kitchen Disco No 10 will finish with a rousing rendition of the Madness hit Our House, which contains the lines 'Our house it has a crowd/ There's always something happening/ And it's usually quite loud'.

How apt. That sums up family life in all its messy glory.

It will be the end of a very weird chapter for Sophie.

'We could keep going but I'm getting the feeling that lockdown is being eased. There is a different feel, so it's time to stop. Although I'm bad at saying 'never again'.'

It has been a blast — and Sophie admits she has benefited herself.

'The discos have done my soul and my spirit the world of good. I've always turned to music anyway when anything has been happening in my life, good or bad, but I don't know what shape the past few months would have taken without this outlet.

'I've been doing cover versions of songs and they have all basically been like love letters to people I can't see any more.'

Lockdown came earlier for this household than for most of us. One of the children showed symptoms even before the schools closed, so they all isolated early.

That Sophie's stepfather — Janet's husband, John Leach — was having chemotherapy as part of his cancer treatment made the situation even more serious.

They are a close family. Janet, who lives only a few streets away in West London, is used to popping in and out, and provides childcare once a week. Any contact at all between them stopped overnight, as it did for so many families.

'I haven't hugged my mum since I don't remember when,' Sophie says. 'They couldn't leave their house at all at the beginning, so it was a case of leaving some groceries on the doorstep. My stepfather has Stage Four lung cancer and was in the middle of chemo, which had to stop.

'Now, thankfully, it has restarted but it has been a terrible time — devastating, really. For so many families the world has just tilted.' The older children understand why they can't see their grandparents, the little ones less so.

This is a united family (Sophie's mum split from her father, film and television producer Robin Bextor, but they are all on good terms), yet not necessarily one that ever did things by the rulebook.

Many will recall the furore when Janet — then the nation's darling, as many Blue Peter presenters were — fell pregnant with Sophie's brother Jackson. She was unmarried at the time and it was a national scandal.

It sounds as if Janet was the sort of mother Sophie has become — old-fashioned about some things (table manners, eating together) but more relaxed about others. And Mum having a slightly crazy day job was par for the course.

'I remember going with her when she did a skydive. She was in the Guinness Book of Records at one point for the highest-altitude jump for a female. At the time it was just normal.'

Janet didn't mind when Sophie decided she would not go to university because she wanted to join a band. 'Many parents would have said, 'No, we have paid for this private education. You will go,' but they never did. They were completely supportive.'

And of course, it worked out. Sophie started to get attention in the industry in the Nineties with indie band Theaudience — but in 2000 her career went mainstream thanks to a feature spot on the song Groovejet (If This Ain't Love) by Spiller.

Further hits followed. Then, in 2013, she went even more mainstream, signing up for Strictly Come Dancing. Her Charleston was a thing of wonder but she lost in the final to Abbey Clancy.

She knew her husband, The Feeling bassist Richard Jones, for a year before they started dating. When they did, it was something of a whirlwind and she discovered she was pregnant within weeks.

'Sonny was premature, so he was actually born eight months after we got together. Weird maths.'

Then, finding that it was rather fun, they kept having children. 'In a way I think it sort of set the tone, having Sonny so early. We've never really known what it is to be just the two of us.'

Juggling a pop career with five children can't have been easy, but her laid-back approach must help.

Some aspects of her parenting style have come in handy in lockdown, she says. 'I try to get up and dressed myself, but I'm not bothered if they want to stay in their pyjamas,' she admits.

Other aspects of lockdown have been hard. She admits she is not a natural home schooler.

'With five, it has been really difficult keeping up with the school stuff. I think their teachers do a brilliant job and I can't compare.

'At the start I did try hard, but to be honest I was feeling a lot of pressure to be running the home and making them emotionally happy. I quit quite early, realising it was making me really tense and really unhappy.

'We've kept the eldest two doing more formal work (Sonny is in his GCSE year, she explains) but with the little ones it's more about projects they can do.'

She says it isn't practical — or even desirable — to turn their home into a school. 'I'm hoping that home is where they learn to interact with each other, where they learn how to be happy, how to be kind.'

They have all been clapping on the doorstep on a Thursday night, too, aware of the debt they owe the NHS.

Sophie's life was saved by doctors when she suffered from complications during her first two pregnancies and gave birth prematurely both times. Kit weighed just 2 lb 6 oz.

'Anyone who has ever had a loved one's life in the hands of hospital staff knows what it is to feel that gratitude,' Sophie says.

'If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't be here and neither would my first two.

'I'll never forget their faces, the doctors and nurses who treated us in the neonatal unit. You don't, because you owe them everything.'

To be a singer in this climate is perhaps to feel a little superfluous, but Sophie says the only things she can do are sing and dance. The reaction from the wider world to her 'little discos' has been heartwarming.

'If you can make people smile and laugh at how daft it all is, then you make a connection that is actually quite special.'

We are getting all wistful now, when I suggest that her sons will grow up knowing they were a part of something magical. She laughs.

'They are more likely to roll their eyes at their crazy mum dancing around and tell me to keep the noise down!'

Muller's first taste of professional film came working as a third assistant on the 1984 horror/thriller Company of Wolves. She then went on to work for International Film and Video, honoring her for her editing, producing, and directing skills.

Muller's goal was to become a successful director in her own right, and her big break came through a chance meeting with John Stewart (brother of Eurythmics' Dave Stewart) and Billy Poveda of Oil Factory, an established film production company.

She has directed over two hundred music videos and has been a longtime collaborator with Sophie Ellis-Bextor, No Doubt, Shakespears Sister, Garbage, Blur, Annie Lennox and Eurythmics. Her work with Annie Lennox won her a Grammy for the Diva video album. She also picked up an MTV Video Music Award for Lennox's 1992 hit "Why", and was also Grammy nominated for the Eurythmics' 1987 Savage video album. In total, Muller has directed over twenty videos for Lennox and Eurythmics and has a long time collaboration with producer Rob Small.

The video for "Stay" by Shakespears Sister in which she directed was spoofed by many British comedians at the time including French & Saunders and Mr. Blobby as well as winning the BRIT Award for Best Video and also The Music Week Award for Best Video at both of the ceremonies' 1993 Awards.

She has directed eleven videos for Sophie Ellis-Bextor including "Take Me Home", "Murder on the Dancefloor", "Catch You", two versions of "Music Gets the Best of Me" and "Love Is a Camera".

Muller has also directed nine videos for No Doubt as well as nine solo videos for Gwen Stefani. When No Doubt's "Don't Speak" won the award for Best Group Video at the 1997 MTV Video Music Awards, Stefani thanked her extensively, saying "I'd like to say that Sophie Muller is a genius." Stefani has also stated,

Sophie Muller is one of my most talented friends. She can and will only do projects that she is inspired by. She is driven by creativity and the love for what she does and as a result she never compromises. I consider her a true artist. I was a fan of Sophie's work before I even imagined working with her. She has a very pronounced style and taste that drew me in. I think she has the gift of being able to bring out the artist's personality, emotion and style. After working with her for the first time on our "Don't Speak" video, we became close friends [...]. On the set her direction is humble and simple, but she knows what she wants and knows when she gets it. A woman in charge in the male-dominated world of filmmaking makes the whole experience that much more exciting. [...] She has a way of making every cut have a reason and meaning. The videos have a life of their own and become better each time you watch them. I am always in shock the first time I see them and then after a few more times I am actually amazed. She has taught me a lot and I feel very lucky to have worked with her.[1]

The artwork for The Jesus and Mary Chain's 1994 album, Stoned & Dethroned, and the singles accompanying it, is composed entirely of stills from the video to the group's song "Sometimes Always", which was directed by Muller. She also directed the video for "Come On", which also appears on the album.

Muller states that her only ambition is to continue directing to her own high standards and to never grow bored. In 2004, she directed the socially aware video for Sarah McLachlan's "World on Fire",[2] where all but $15 of the entire $150,000 video budget was donated to charities. Recently, she has directed videos for Shakira, Mika, Kings of Leon, Brandon Flowers, Tom Odell and the critically acclaimed video for the Dixie Chicks, "Not Ready to Make Nice".
