If I have to be honest I find Lost in the Sunshine the worst of the three released tracks, it was nice enough but kinda forgettable. But on the other hand Everything is Sweet had insanely grown on me, I get really thrilling feelings coming from the instrumental and Sophie's delivery is spot on, if only it had better mixing.

A Sophie x Ford would be absolutely amazing. He has worked on indie, pop, dance albums and he has a good sense of what makes a good song. But he has worked with some really high profile artists, so I’m guessing he won’t fit the budget easily. Same goes for Stuart Price. I’ve been waiting for a Price produced album from Sophie since Confessions.
I'm really liking Lost in the Sunshine. I can picture the song playing in a Japanese zen garden with blossom around. It's a very 'calming' song and I think in the context of what we've had so far, I think it will balance out in the context of the album.

I'm so surprised assai records aren't doing an obi strip edition of this. Seems like an obvious choice.
Only CD still available so I suggest people get in there quickly before that's gone too.
Ashnikko, Foo Fighters, Jake Shears,
Louise - Greatest Hits, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds -The Aces - are all releasing the same week as Hana comes out. Sophie might have a good chance at top 5 with this. I guess it depends how well Ed and Capaldi continue to sell from May as well.
I know the charts aren't as impactful as they used to be but it would be nice to see.

She’ll be low too 10 at best. And I feel even that is wishful thinking.
Same!
I put Let's get Lost in the Sunshine on the CD, and treated myself to a vinyl, and requested 'Soaring up like satellites in the twilight zone, Breaking the Circle. (I really like that lyric)
Can't wait to hear the album. I thought it was out the end of June and didn't realise it was the 2nd!
The original is infinitely better than this, but as long as the remix makes the song more accessible to everyone, it is doing its job well.

Could you imagine Sophie’s own What’s Your Pleasure?
It would be a moment most pleasing to me.

Honestly, I’d just want her to cover Spotlight.
