Scissor Sisters?

So today I heard this song on the radio that I really liked,but I did'nt know who it was by,but after some Googling I found out it is the Scissor Sisters "I don't Feel Like Dancin'".

Does anyone have there CD? Is the rest any good?

Yeah, I have this. It's from their album "Ta-Dah". This song that you mentioned was co- written with Elton John among others. It's a cool album.

nod 'I Don't Feel Like Dancing' is definitely a household song too! It's played at every party and is on everyone's 'Party Music Playlist', I would guess! Great song! biggrin

It's great. That song was out last year from their Ta-Dah CD. The first four songs alone are worth the price. Very fun group and music.

the band and the music is quite some patchy mess, however...

I love them

That I Don't Feel Like Dancin song sounds a lot like Let Your Love Flow by The Bellamy Brothers. In fact every time i hear that scissor sisters song i want to sing the other song over the verses. I'm suprised they didn't sue.

I knew from the get go that it sounded like some heavy Elton John influence...until I realized he co-wrote the song.

EmeraldSkies - go listen to "She's My Man" (and the video is fun too), and "I Can't Decide" (a song about how to kill someone)

While I love "I Dont Feel Like Dancin' " and others on Ta Dah. It was their first album I couldnt get enough of with Take Your Mama , Mary , Filthy/Georgous, Lovers in the Backseat and all the others. I would def . recommend you check out that album too.

Great campy fun !

I'm the opposite. I didn't like "Laura". I knew who they were, but decided to wait to see if they were a flash in the pan. THey've still not totally gotten the respect in the US that they should, but they're getting there.

That video for She's My Man reminded me of The Matrix,and "I Can't Decide" had me laughing cause it's a song about killing somone yet it set to such a happy melody. lol

I think I'm going to have to get this CD. smile

It's not easy having yourself a good time
Greasing up those bets and betters
Watching out they don't four-letter
Fuck and kiss you both at the same time
Smells-like something I've forgotten
Curled up died and now it's rotten

I'm not a gangster tonight
Don't want to be a bad guy
I'm just a loner baby
And now you're gotten in my way

I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll probably go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride

It's a bitch convincing people to like you
If I stop now call me a quitter
If lies were cats you'd be a litter
Pleasing everyone isn't like you
Dancing jigs until I'm crippled
Slug ten drinks I won't get pickled

I've got to hand it to you
You've played by all the same rules
It takes the truth to fool me
And now you've made me angry

I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll probably go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride

Oh I could throw you in the lake
Or feed you poisoned birthday cake
I wont deny I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
Oh I could bury you alive
But you might crawl out with a knife
And kill me when I'm sleeping
That's why

I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll probably go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride
