Róisín Murphy
So here’ the story:
From the information I’ve been reading on both artists it turns out Calvin Harris originally produced this song called “Off And On” for Irish, electronica singer Róisín Murphy. She sung on the original demo, but in the end decided that the song was “too poppy” and different from the sound she was aiming for on her new album “Overpowered”. The demo soon leaked and created a lot of buzz. The song remained unreleased, but then then British singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor took on the song for her new upcoming album.

Most people seem to think Róisín’s version is more “On” and Sophie’s is “Off”, but it’s hard for me to say.

Sounds Like Calvin Harris exclusive
The only thing better than a song produced by Calvin Harris is a song that’s both produced AND remixed by Calvin Harris. I love busting this song out whenever possible in my sets. It’s super catchy and danceable and I’m not going to lie, I like it a lot more than both the originals.
