07年8月，维多利亚自己单飞离开Dead Disco，开始自己的音乐生涯，她还翻唱了呛女生（GirlS Aloud）威猛乐队（Wham）和麦莉·赛勒斯（Miley Cyrus)的歌曲，并把它们放在了Youtube和Myspace上。

在一年的时间内，她与Dead Disco乐队的朋友 Greg Kurstin联繫，并且决定减少一张专辑的歌曲创作量，于是维多利亚开始着手Hands这张专辑的录製了。

从大体来说，这张专辑获得了很好的评价，在 Metacritic（一个出名的音乐评价网站）中获得70分高分，在MusicOMH网站的採访中，Michael Cragg 认为它是极棒的一个流行创作专辑，Gigwise网站的David Renshaw认为Hands能与呛女生，嘎嘎夫人和莉莉艾伦的音乐相媲美。唱片里的Earthquake像雨花般的synth lead把灵魂打得粉碎，听足成年的旧歌Stuck On Repeat再次聆听更是无比亢奋。睡房里不禁想跟着高声歌唱一翻，动容到不止的Tune Into My Heart，还有全碟最让人喜出望外的电子探戈Ghosts，精彩绝伦！synth声夺人，顷刻像堕入下着暴雨的大海中去！是一张很好听的Electropop专辑。

提到最近热火朝天的电子舞曲类女歌手，除了刚刚提名英国水星奖的La Roux，再就是这位化名为Little Boots的Victoria Hesketh了。相对于业界较为讚扬的La Roux，更显平易近人的Little Boots则在民间有着较好的口碑，首先她娇小的体型就首先让人感到可亲，再者她在流行舞曲这一块做得更为主流和大众，最后则是因为她早前的乐队Dead Disco在最初就已经拥有大量的拥趸。《Hands》这张个人专辑的发行是其彻底脱离乐团发展的标誌，十二首风格统一的作品突出了她的个人形象，以电音舞曲天后Kylie Minogue为偶像的Victoria Hesketh可能还有很长的一段路要走，但在处女碟当中有着一点比Kylie Minogue要强，那就是她其实是一个独立的创作艺人，整张专辑(包括前后出版的一系列EP作品)均是她个人创作而出的作品，不过，复古的迪斯科节奏、俏皮可爱的声线、时不时撩拨心弦的贝司段落以及Little Boots健康向上的形象，让这张《Hands》比同时期另外一些电子舞曲专辑更适合低龄乐迷。

《ghost》

little boots

Withdraw into your other world

I'm speaking but you do not hear a word

Glaze over colder than a lake

Frozen by our distances of late

It's clear as glass you smash

My apparitions melt before your eyes

My skull is full of dreams

And nothing's as it seems

In the black air under the trees

Do you even know that I'm here

I might as well be a ghost

It's true you see right through me

Look in the mirror and you

You see nothing but yourself

It's true I see right through you

It's true you see right through me

It's true I see right through you

Blank pages surrounding your eyes

Overthrow the colours in your mind

Science has always been a liar

I can see you shiver in my fire

I'm falling like a snowflake

Catch me quick before I disappear

I'm fading like the sun

And soon as I'm gone everything will come undone

Do you even know that I'm here

I might as well be a ghost

It's true you see right through me

Look in the mirror and you

You see nothing but yourself

It's true I see right through you

even know that I'm here

I might as well be a ghost

It's true you see right through me

Look in the mirror and you

You see nothing but yourself

It's true I see right through you

It's true you look right through me

It's true I see right through you

It's true you look right through me

It's true I see right through you

It's true you look right through me

It's true I see right through you

It's true you look right through me

It's true I see right through you

Withdraw into your other world撤回你的另一个世界

I'm speaking but you do not hear a word我在对你说，但是你什幺也听不见

Glaze over colder than a lake 仿佛比冻结的湖面还要冰冷

Frozen by our distances of late 因为我们现在相去甚远

It's clear as glass you smash 一切清楚地好比你敲碎的玻璃般

My apparitions melt before your eyes 我的幻象在你眼前融化

My skull is full of dreams 我的头颅充满着梦想

And nothing's as it seems 就像空无一物似的

In the black air under the trees 在树下黑色的空气中

Do you even know that I'm here 我甚至怀疑你到底知不知道我在这

I might as well be a ghost 我也许成了一个幽灵

It's true you see right through me 你真的将我看透

Look in the mirror and you 看看镜子里的一切，你

You see nothing but yourself 你除了你自己 什幺也看不见

It's true I see right through you 我真的看穿了你

Blank pages surrounding your eyes 你的眼神是空白无物的

Overthrow the colours in your mind 无情地挡住了你心中的色彩

Science has always been a liar 科学总是一个谎言

I can see you shiver in my fire 你在我燃烧的火焰中破碎

I'm falling like a snowflake 我像雪花一样飘落

Catch me quick before I disappear 在我消失殆尽之前请抓住我

I'm fading like the sun 我像太阳一样渐渐模糊

And soon as I'm gone everything will come undone 一旦我消失不见 所有事物都将完结

Do you even know that I'm here 我甚至怀疑你到底知不知道我在这

I might as well be a ghost 我也许成了一个幽灵

It's true you see right through me 你真的将我看透

Look in the mirror and you 看看镜子里的一切，你

You see nothing but yourself 你除了你自己 什幺也看不见

It's true I see right through you 我真的看穿了你
