  • The Magic Position is the third studio album by English singer-songwriter Patrick Wolf. It was released on February 26, 2007. The album features collaborations with Marianne Faithfull and Edward Larrikin of Larrikin Love as well as backing vocals by Wolf's sister Jo Apps and also bass and alto clarinet instrumentation by Derek Apps. The album was preceded by the singles "Accident & Emergency" and "Bluebells". Video performances of "Augustine" and "Bluebells" can be freely downloaded, along with older songs and interviews, on the Patrick Wolf podcast in the iTunes Store. The Magic Position peaked at #46 on the UK Albums Chart. The single "The Magic Position" was released on 26 March 2007. Music critics and Wolf himself have noted that this album marks a departure from the musical style of his previous two albums, with this one being more pop-oriented. He cites Boney M and Giorgio Moroder as influences. Slant Magazine named The Magic Position the best album of 2007.
  • The Magic Position ist das dritte und bisher kommerziell erfolgreichste Studioalbum des britischen Musikers Patrick Wolf, welches sich stilistisch von dessen beiden vorherigen Alben, seinem Debüt Lycanthropy und dessen Nachfolger Wind in the Wires, deutlich unterscheidet. Exemplarisch für die von Patrick Wolf (auch auf Druck der Plattenfirma) betriebene Annäherung an die Mainstream-Popkultur steht der Titelsong des Albums, der auch die dritte Single-Auskopplung daraus war und den Künstler einem breiteren Publikum bekannt machte, Trotz des relativ großen Erfolgs des Albums (# 40 in den UK Charts) kam es kurz darauf zum Bruch zwischen Patrick Wolf und der Plattenfirma Loog, und in Folge dessen wieder zu einer Entfernung des Künstlers vom musikalischen Mainstream, und einer Rückwendung zu düstereren Klängen.
