It was released by Echo Records on 12-inch vinyl in January 2005.[1] SongsThe opening track uses overdriven guitar parts and layers of overdubbed vocals.[2] Its lyrics caution a woman who has become out of control and its title was chosen to contrast feelings of passion and melancholy.[3] "Off on It", a more experimental song with an unsteady rhythm,[4] precedes Night of the Dancing Flame", which combines synthesizers with 1920s jazz.[5] It is written in waltz time[3] and was compared to Stevie Wonder's work during his peak.[7] The extended play closes with "Through Time", which opens with noises such as rustling and coughing,[5] and then proceeds into a ballad that was compared to those by Carole King.[6] Cover artworkThe cover of Sequins 1 was painted by Simon Henwood. Murphy met Henwood in a pub, and Henwood, who was known for his simplified paintings of teenagers, thought that she would be a good subject for a painting.[7][8] Henwood came to Murphy's house the next week and, while they were looking through her wardrobe, decided to have her dressed in sequins.[7] Murphy positioned her body in abstract shapes for Henwood to paint.[8] She developed a character, which Henwood described as a "disco electro pop diva with a 1940s look".[9] His canvases were displayed at The Hospital in Victoria, London,[10] and Murphy purchased them "for [her] kids so they can see what [she] once looked like."[8] Track listingAll tracks written and composed by Róisín Murphy and Matthew Herbert.
