Track Description
Available in:
"Love Is a Camera" is a song performed by English recording artist Sophie Ellis-Bextor for her fifth album Wanderlust (2014). Ellis-Bextor co-wrote the song with Ed Harcourt, who also produced the track. Its lyrics recount the story of a woman who takes photos of her victims and keeps their souls in the pictures. Musically, the song features piano, guitars, double bass, and influences of tango and baroque. "Love Is a Camera" was serviced to hot adult contemporary radio stations in the United Kingdom as the third single from Wanderlust. The song was released on 23 June 2014.

Upon release, its lyrics and composition attained praise and ambivalence from music critics. To accompany the song's release, Sophie Muller was enlisted as the director for the music video of "Love Is a Camera", which was filmed in the Italian city of Florence. Its storyline features Ellis-Bextor impersonating two characters, one being a "temptress" and the other being an unsuspecting woman. The former convinces a man who is attracted to her, and the latter, to take their picture; the unsuspecting characters are ultimately trapped in their portraits. The track has been performed during Ellis-Bextor's gigs, for promoting her record Wanderlust.

"Sophie Muller delivers a marvellous gothic dream in the form of her latest promo for Sophie Ellis Bextor's waltzing Love Is A Camera. Boasting a great look throughout – it was shot by Robbie Ryan – Sophie E-B gives a groundbreaking performance playing the role of a creepy Victorian photographer, who lures her victims to the house, trapping their souls in photographs. We nominate Sophie Muller to direct the next Hammer movie..." (Jimmy Brown, Promonews)
