Blurb:
"Murder on the Dancefloor" (2001) is the second single released by Sophie Ellis-Bextor from her debut album, Read My Lips.
After the release of "Take Me Home" in August 2001, Sophie Ellis-Bextor released her best-selling single to date in December 2001, "Murder on the Dancefloor." The song peaked at #2 on the UK Singles Chart, stayed on the charts for 23 weeks, and became the most played song of 2002 in all of Europe. The song was such a hit that the singer's label cancelled what was planned to be the next single, "Lover," and replaced it with "Get Over You."
The music video (which was directed by Sophie Muller) takes place at a dance contest whose winners are to gain a pair of golden shoes and a cash prize. Desperate to win, Sophie manages to sneakily injure and disqualify many of the other dancers, poison one judge and seduce another into declaring her the winner which displeases the other dancers.

It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not kill the groove
Dj, gonna burn this goddamn house right down
Oh, I know I know I know I know I know I know
About your kind
And so and so and so and so and so
I'll have to play
If you think you're getting away
I will prove you wrong
I'll take you all the way
Boy, just come along
Hear me when I say
Hey, It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not kill the groove
It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not steal the moves
Dj, gonna burn this goddamn house right down
Oh I know I know I know I know I know I know
There may be others
And so and so and so and so and so and so
You'll just have to pray
If you think you're getting away
I will prove you wrong
I'll take you all away
Stay another song
I'll blow you all away
Hey, It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not kill the groove
Hey, hey
It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not steal the moves
DJ, gonna turn this house around somehow
Murder on the dancefloor
But you better not kill the groove
Hey, hey
It's murder on the dancefloor
But you better not steal the moves
Dj, gonna burn this goddamn house right down
