"Sylvie" is a 1998 song written and performed by British pop group Saint Etienne and released as the first single from their fourth album, Good Humor (1998).

[5] A reviewer from Herald Sun remarked that it "begins with a classical piano flourish and develops into an upbeat bass and drum dance gem.

"[6] Mike Boehm from Los Angeles Times viewed it as "a typically light confection that owes a lot to ABBA's "Dancing Queen", although it puts a twist and a spin on the Swedes' swooning luster."

[10] Jim Wirth from NME stated that the song, together with "He's on the Phone" are "a stellar amalgamation of handbag house and Bacharachian pop aesthetics.

[12] Rob Sheffield from Rolling Stone commented, "Even when Sarah sings about boy trouble – in "Sylvie", her little sister tries to steal her beau – she sounds cooler than ice cream and warmer than the sun.
