  • "If I Can't Dance" is a pop song written by Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Dimitri Tikovoi for Ellis-Bextor's third album, Trip the Light Fantastic (2007). It was scheduled to be released as the album's fourth single in late 2007. The song got its first live performance on the BBC1 Saturday night show, DanceX, where Sophie performed the track live. Sophie recently stated that this song it not going to be released as a single, with Fascination opting to release a new, unreleased song in November. However, with the initial release date of the greatest hits changed to March (now to be released sometime after her fourth album due in 2009) and the inclusion of this song in the St Trinian's film, Sophie left the option of releasing the single open. Finally, after many rumours about the possibility of a release, the track has been released digitally in some European regions. The song is a reference to the famous quote from Emma Goldman, "If I can't dance, I don't want to be part of your revolution". Goldman never said these exact words but she did convey this idea in an encounter with a young revolutionary that she mentions in her autobiography Living My Life.
