Sophie Madeleine - The Rhythm You Started (Official)


FROM THE FORTHCOMING ALBUM "THE RHYTHM YOU STARTED" Sophie Madeleine - The Rhythm You Started Directed by Rafael Pavón Deepest Darkest Sussex, November 2010 Director of Photography: Rafael Pavón Executive Producer: Lucas Rodríguez de la Rúa Editor & SFX: Rafael Pavón & Eric Schockmel watergun.tv Special thanks to Linda Ball, Sarah Dick, Oliver Hoare, Melvin Galapon, Thomas Burns, Harvey the Cat and Will Ball! The Rhythm You Started - written, produced and performed by Sophie Madeleine & Neil Thomas You took the beat of my heart And you moved all the pieces you pulled it apart Now it plays on repeat and I can't stop the rhythm you started. You took the tune in my head And replaced it with melodies you wrote instead Now they're coming on through and I'm spreading the song that you started It goes ba ba ba ba ba ba ba.. Oh now play me another melody, melody. Oh now stay light a fire under me, under me. And I'll make up a cover that will keep us dry As the raindrops beat down rhythms from the sky You took the breath from my lungs Now there's nothing else left and I've clearly begun To fall head over chest so now come carry on what you've started. You took the words from my tongue And you silenced my troubles, you hushed every one. And I finally heard all my thoughts clear and strong and I started singing.. bababa... Oh now play me another melody, melody. Oh now stay light a fire under me, under me. And I'll make up a cover that will keep us dry As the raindrops beat down <b>...</b>

Sophie Madeleine - Cover Song #05 - Pumped Up Kicks - Foster The People


My beautiful friend Ruth posted a link (youtu.be to the original of this song on the facebooks a few months ago. So I thought I would cover it for her because she is far away and I miss her. Plus it's really really really catchy, even if it is about a kid going crazy and going on a killing spree. Oh well. Hope you like it Ruthio xxx

Sophie Madeleine - Bob Dylan Cover - Don't Think Twice It's All Right


Copyright music and lyrics reproduced by kind permission of Special Rider -- for original, exclusive performances by Bob Dylan, check-out the official channel at www.youtube.com/bobdylan. I got bored trying to fix my laptop today so I distracted myself by learning how to play my favourite song on the ukulele - Bob Dylan's "Don't Think Twice It's All Right". It's definitely not my finest work, and nothing compared Bob's Freewheelin' version, but I just couldn't help myself! I apologise in advance to any die hard Dylan fans, and the man himself, for any insult I may cause! (ps the laptop is now fixed.. I'm sure you all want to know about that.. a lot.) sophiemadeleine.bandcamp.com

Song to fall in love to - Sophie Madeleine (Live from her living room)


LONDON SHOW: 15th May 2011 at The 12 Bar, Denmark St, London. For more info visit the facebook event page. www.facebook.com My first attempt at a video of this kind, so please be gentle. :) (The next one will be better!) Me, myself and I performing "Song to fall in love to" from my album "The Rhythm You Started". I had a few issues syncing the sound and video, so it may not look like it but I DID actually play/sing all the parts live whilst filming and then mixed them all together. No miming.

Sophie Madeleine - Cover Song #09 - If I Had You - Ukulele Ike/Nellie Mckay (Amongst others)


Requested by Peter. Thanks Peter! Hard to do anything better than Nellie's/Cliff's version. But I gave it a go nonetheless. May have simplified it somewhat, because I thought it sounded betterer! www.youtube.com youtu.be According to Mr. Woodshed at ukulelehunt.com, my original song "Take Your Love With Me" reminded him of this song. Although, shamefully I'd never even heard it until Peter requested it! I guess I don't listen to much ukulele-based music recreationally...

Sophie Madeleine - Cover Song #21 - Something Good Can Work - Two Door Cinema Club


Here is my simplified version of "Something Good Can Work" - officially the hardest song I've ever had to sing. And so I've probably sung it wrong. The battery on the video recorder ran out just as I was about to do the extra vocals on the choruses, so to illustrate the fact that there are four of me singing, I multiplied the main vocal footage... My album is being released on the 25th July.. listen to it and pre-order at sophiemadeleine.com ! Two Door Cinema Club are marvellous. You should buy their album immediately if you don't already have it. This is the original version http If you're wondering what the lyrics are (I changed "girl" to "now".. I'm sorry.).. There's a spanner in the works, you know, You gotta step up your game to make it to the top To go-o, Got a little competition now, You're gonna find it hard to make it, Livin' on your own, o-oh, o-oh Let's make this happen, girl, We're gonna show the world that something Good can happen here for yo-ou, And you know that it will. Let's get this started, girl, We're movin' up, we're movin' up It's been a lot to change, but yo-ou Will always get what you want. Took a little time To make a little better It's only going out, Just one thing then another you kno-ow, you kno-ow It took a little time To make a little better It's only going out, Just one thing then another you kno-ow, no-o Let's make this happen, girl, We're gonna show the world that something Good can happen here for yo-ou, And you know that it will.

Lovesong for Miss Sophie Madeleine on Ukulele


Inspired by her version of "I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm", I was devoting my passions to internet sensation (and wonderful songstress) Sophie Madeleine, when I decided to write a ukulele song of my own. Upon retrieving my ukulele from the other room, I discovered it had lost a string since last I played it. The adoration and unwavering fondness would not give way, so I wrote the song on the bloody thing anyway. Category: Ridiculous nonsense. Check out her youtube channel at: youtube.com

Today is my birthday. But do I take a day off? HELL NO! Music by Fabian Andre and Wilbur Schwandt and lyrics by Gus Kahn. In addition to Arsonauts requesting this, just a few minutes ago this song was also requested by Callum Braines on facebook. A happy coincidence, no? Ukulele arrangement courtesy of the wonderful ukulelehunt.com for all your ukulele-ing needs. You can find said arrangement here ukulelehunt.com I suggest you now go and spend many hours on the ukulele hunt website if you haven't done so already, and you should also immediately go and buy every Mamas and Papas song ever recorded. Yes? Ok good. :) Sophie M x

Sophie Madeleine & The Sailor Jerrys - Goody Goody (cover)


I'd like to take this opportunity to introduce my backing band "The Sailor Jerrys" (also known as Lucy and Lara), who even manage to co-ordinate their clothes without even trying. They're a little bit shy, but I think they're great! We took a break from rehearsing for my live set (in which they play other instruments as well.. not just kazoos!) and we covered a song for fun - "Goody Goody" (composed by Matty Malneck, with lyrics by Johnny Mercer 1936). Hope you like it!

Here is my attempt at playing this on the ukulele. Which would not have been possible without the help of Mr Ukulelehunt.com. Here is his tutorial! ukulelehunt.com He's dead good, he is! Bon Iver is also dead good. He has a new album out so you should go and buy it immediately if you haven't done so already! boniver.org PS Dear Jamie Harris, here is the song you requested. I hope I haven't ruined it. I made sure the stag cushion was in shot also, to appeal to your stag fetish. I hope you approve. Love from me x Had a few comments about my shirt. It is currently my favourite item of clothing because it is beautiful but also useful for when I am out bird spotting. You can buy it in Topshop if you want one. They also have a dinosaur one somewhere too I think..for when you go dinosaur spotting. www.topshop.com

I wrote it for an ex-boyfriend who bought me my first ever ukulele, and this was also the first song I wrote on ukulele too! The chords are available here ukulelehunt.com Just to clarify, this performance is 100% live. Just me, a uke and one microphone. No vocal enhancers or autotune whatsoever. Just compression and EQ. I'm surprised that anyone would think otherwise.

LONDON SHOW 27TH JULY THE ENTERPRISE, CHALK FARM! www.ticketweb.co.uk This cover was recorded the day I discovered I was allergic to England, so apologies for the vocal being rather tired from coughing. A beautiful song by Gruff Rhys who I supported recently.

Sophie Madeleine - Cover Song #08 - Radar Detector by Darwin Deez


I did a sing for Timothy. This song is so cute it's ridiculous. It's really hard to sing because the melody jumps up and down a lot. I've done a slightly abridged version because I'm playing it solo/acoustic. Tim's favourite line is "ding dong ditch a televangelist". Mine is "You and I go shopping and find exactly what we're looking for. You and I go shopping and fall asleep inside a mattress store". Here is the original : www.youtube.com I wish I could dance like Darwin Deez. I think you should all immediately buy his album if you haven't done so already. Sophie x

Sophie Madeleine - Cover Song #30 - You Win Again


Being a child of the 80s, I have fond memories of this song. I can understand some people being put off by the thought of barry gibb's beard/pony-tail combo, but not I! I even kept the key change and fade out, that's commitment right there. I hope you like it. It's no doubt suffering from audio/video sync issues, yet again. So, apologies in advance if it is. Thank you for staying with me for the last 30 days, it has been a pleasure, albeit a very tiring one. Now time for a rest... until TOMORROW when my album is released and I premiere the NEW MUSIC VIDEO FOR OIL AND GOLD! :)

Requested by Mia. My shortened and slightly higher version of this brilliant song. I originally recorded just a solo version of this, but it didn't feel right, so I overdubbed the guitar/backing vocal, and the riff on ukulele - hence why the timing isn't as tight as it could be - no click! Anyway, I hope you like it! Here is the original - youtu.be PS I KNOW I'VE MENTIONED IT BEFORE BUT I HAVE A GIG ON THE 27TH OF JULY IN LONDON AT THE ENTERPRISE TO CELEBRATE THE RELEASE OF MY ALBUM PLEASE COME TO IT IF YOU CAN.. okay, good.

Sophie Madeleine & The Cavaquinho - "Big Yellow Taxi" (Joni Mitchell cover)


I mentioned I had learnt this song on my cavaquinho the other day, so I thought I'd post a video of it. This video is especially for Ivan, the kind donator of my new cavaquinho! I hope to be able to write a song on it soon - just need some more practice! Admittedly about 2 tones to high for me, so apologies for the vocals, but such is the way of this song - it has to be played in an open tuning - it meant I would have to tune the cavaquinho down an entire two tones, but that would be sacrilege! This cavaquinho is tuned to DGBD - ie an open G major chord. In case you're wondering why I'm not playing a ukulele - the cavaquinho is the instrument that all ukuleles are descended from!

Cover Song #20 - Strings That Tie To You - Jon Brion


My good friend Jen asked for a sad song. This is a sad song. I don't know if she knows the song.. or even likes it. I hope she does. Originally written by a man, about a woman, you'd be forgiven for thinking that with me being a heterosexual female I would change the "her" to a "him". But the "her" is integral to the rhyming scheme of the middle section of the song. It would be the equivalent of changing "Brown Eyed Girl" to "Brown Eyed Boy" - a travesty.... It's quite hard to play this song on only 4 strings, so it almost sounds right, but not really. Much nicer sounding on a guitar or piano.

Sophie Madeleine - Cover Song #28 - Smile (Charlie Chaplin)


When I say "I think", it's because Melinda requested a song called "Smile" and I assumed she meant this one. Hopefully she meant this and not the Lily Allen song or other.

Please excuse my disheveled appearance and tired voice - I was feeling really ill and tired when I recorded everything. :( Pre-order my new CD 'The Rhythm You Started' here! www.xtramilerecordings.com On Monday I spent the afternoon in London shooting my next music video with the brilliant Rafa of watergun.tv He requested this song a while ago and promised me a birthday cake in return. He didn't bring me a cake, but he did get me a very nice birthday present. So a deal's a deal! I wanted to play the keyboard part on my glockenspiel but the scale they use goes from F# to B and my glockenspiel goes from G to A. So I had to use my toy casio instead - tone 25, which is apparently an ocarina. Pffff! Here are Crystal Fighers themselves youtu.be I suggest you go and buy their album "star of love", it's dead good. I realised after I finished editing and recording everything that I had covered the album version, which is a lot longer and a different structure. In hindsight, would have preferred to do the shorter version! Oh well...

I was challenged by a few people to do this (including my own mother.) Due to the rate at which I have to learn/perform/record all these cover songs, and the short amount of time I have dedicated to each one, I am unable to do anything with this song that would even be a patch on the original, or indeed the Pomplamoose cover (that I only found after I had recorded everything!) Yet again plagued by audio/video sync issues, but you get the idea!

Sophie Madeleine - Cover Song #10 - Nobody Does It Better by Carly Simon


I know it's full of "baby"s and it's a cheesy bond theme, but I recently learnt this song for Jonathan (CJ) Westwood, who "purchased" it during my PledgeMusic fund-raising project (THANK YOU JONATHAN!) It took me a while to learn it, so I thought perhaps the rest of the world should hear it too after all that effort! (I really hope he doesn't mind!) My version is a mixture of my own arrangement and a few bits of the one posted by Mr. Ukulele Hunt... I had most of it figured out and then realised he'd tabbed it too, which was very useful indeed! My version is slightly different, I use a few different chords here and there and some of the twiddly bits are played differently. But it's more or less the same thing, if you want to learn it too!... ukulelehunt.com PS CAN ANYBODY TELL ME WHY MY VIDEO/SOUND IS IN SYNC WHEN I PLAY THE FILE ON MY COMPUTER, AND THEN OUT OF SYNC AS SOON AS IT IS UPLOADED?! :( Hrumph.

Sophie Madeleine - Cover Song #16 - I'll See You In My Dreams


I realise this has been done so many times before on YouTube, but I couldn't not have this song on the list. I literally cried buckets when Joe Brown performed this at 'A Concert For George' (my favourite Beatle). Brown gave an already beautiful song a whole new meaning and it now makes me think of my dad. Here are the chords I used, I think I tuned my uke up a tone (to ADF#B) and they're probably not 100% correct but I think they sound OK - I'll See You In My Dreams Lyrics by Gus Kahn, music by Isham Jones, as recorded by Joe Brown INTRO: (4x)C C6 CMaj7 C6 C C6 CMaj7 C6 A7 A A9 A Lonely days are long, twilight sings its song D7 Fm6 (1213) G7 C C6 CMaj7 C6 Of the happiness that used to be Em B7 Em Soon my eyes will close, soon I'll find repose GG#dim Am D7 G GMaj7 G7 And in dreams you're always near to me. CHORUS: F Dm7(2213) Fm6 Fm6 C (barr) C C6 (5453) B7 C6 I'll see you in my dreams, hold you in my dreams A7 A7 Em A7 A7 D7 G7 Someone took you out of my arms, still I feel the thrill of your charms F F6 Fm6 C (barre) C6 B7 C6 Lips that once were mine, tender eyes that shine Gm6 (0201) A7 E7 Am C7 F Fm6 G7 C C6 CMaj7 C6 They will light my way tonight, I'll see you in my dreams

Being Around - Lemonheads / Evan Dando COVER - Sophie Madeleine


I love singing this song (even if it isn't exactly like the original - sorry in advance to all Lemonheads aficionados) so thought I'd do a little video of it to share with all you lovely internet peoples. I hope you like it. The lyrics are brilliant! ( oh, here's the original - www.youtube.com ) Oh yeah, I have a show in London coming up 25/11/09 at The Elgin in Ladbroke Grove if anyone is interested. And you can still buy my music from sophiemadeleine.com as a download or limited edition CD.. AND you can now buy it on iTunes and Amazon amongst other online-digital-musical-type-store-things... love and peace and stuff, Sophie Madeleine here are the lyrics Being Around ( Morgan/Dando ) If I was in the fridge, would you open the door? If I was the grass, would you mow your lawn? If I was your body, would you still wear clothes? If I was a booger, would you blow your nose? Would you keep it? Would you eat it? I'm just tryin to give myself a reason, for being around. If I was the front porch swing would you let me hang? If I was the dance floor would you shake your thing? If I was a rubber check would you let me bounce Up and down inside your bank account? Would ya trust me, not to break you? I'm just tryin really hard to make you, notice me being around. If I was a haircut would you wear a hat? If I was a maid, could I clean your flat? If I was the carpet would ya wipe your feet, In time to save me from mud off the street? If you like me, if you love me, why don't you get <b>...</b>

Sophie Madeleine - "Wave Goodbye" - The Crypt Sessions: Episode 10


Here at The Crypt Sessions, it doesnt take much for us to put extra icing on our cupcakes, but this week were partying extra hard. Not only is it our tenth episode but were featuring Sophie Madeleine to boot. Bring on the hundreds and thousands. Armed with her trusty ukelele, a voice to die for and a penchant for hirsute gentlemen, Sophie has been taking the web by storm. A DIY video for her Beard Song has recieved 136000 hits on YouTube, while her fabulous album, Life.Love.Ukelele, is winning plaudits from the blogosphere and beyond. Its not hard to see why. With a masters degree in songwriting, Sophies sublime pop songs are perfectly crafted creations charming, sunny, very funny and as pretty as their mother. Sophie played most of the instruments on the album herself, but even a talent such as hers doesnt stretch to playing three instruments simultaneously. So for her Crypt Session she was joined by Lara Stevens and Tim Emmerick. It was our pleasure.
