We're not really accustomed to hearing Sophie Ellis-Bextor in ballads, but this is about as close as she gets.
And while Today The Sun's On Us is pleasant enough, it brings into sharp focus the fragile nature of the singer's voice when it comes to dominating a song. This is never a problem in the sharper uptempo numbers that she does, as a cool, deadpan delivery is perfect there, but here there is definitely something lacking.
Also lacking is a big chorus, though like much of her other work this one's a grower. The principal thing it does, however, is make you want to put on one of her sassier numbers.
