Catch You

"Catch You" is a song by the British recording artist Sophie Ellis-Bextor for her third album, Trip the Light Fantastic (2007). It was written by Cathy Dennis, Rhys Barker and Greg Kurstin and produced by Kurstin. It was released as the album's first single on 19 February 2007. "Catch You" is a pop rock song and talks about Bextor chasing the guy that she wants.

It received mostly positive reviews from music critics, who commended the infusion of rock guitars and electronic beats, while calling it a strident and very good song. A music video was directed by Sophie Muller and it shows Sophie chasing a guy in Venice. The song performed moderately on the charts, reaching number 8 on the UK Singles Chart, peaking inside the top twenty on the Italian and Russian Singles Chart and inside the top fifty on the other countries.

Background and composition

The single was first announced on New Year's Eve 2006, where Ellis Bextor performed the song on the BBC's "New Year Live" show. "Catch You" was written by Cathy Dennis and co-written by Greg Kurstin and Rhys Barker and produced by Greg Kurstin. It is a pop rock song and combines guitars, zingy keyboards, nu wave angular guitars with a nagging pop melody. The lyrics concern Sophie possibly bugging various parts of her bloke's flat (mailbox, "easy chair", flatscreen), in the hope that she will "catch him".

Gonna Catch You

"Gonna Catch You" is a 1991 single by Hi-NRG singer, Lonnie Gordon. The track is written and produced by the group Black Box. First released around Europe in April 1991, it became the singer's second top 40 hit in the UK. It would be Gordon's last release with her UK label, Supreme Records, who folded soon after. Months later, the single was featured in the 1991 film, Cool As Ice. SBK Records signed Gordon and released the single in the U.S.A., making it her debut solo single in her homeland. It became the first of three number one dance singles in the USA in a row for Gordon. The single also made the Hot 100, peaking at #79, and was Gordon's only hit on the soul singles chart peaking at #30.
