Ta Dah! - Scissor Sisters

There is a long list of British artists who have had huge success here, but never made it in the US in quite the same way; a list that includes the likes of Robbie Williams and Oasis. The list of American artists who can claim the same is shorter, but includes one of the recent greats – the Scissor Sisters. Try as I might, I just can’t understand why the Americans don’t love them the way the British do, although their loss is our gain, with the band happy to play large events in the UK, such as a recent gig to promote the Motorola Red mobile phone in Trafalgar Square. The Scissor Sisters are everything you would want in a music group. Unlike many artists, ...  Read the complete review

Suitably camp and beautifully adjusting to life in the B52’s lane, the Scissor Sisters have quite simply squeezed into the most teasingly unconventional gap in the musical market before anyone else had dared to spot it. They are glamorous and extravagant in show, yet on the quiet, they appear to be a visual fusion between The Primitives and Alien Ant Farm. In regards to the impact they have on this mere mortal is that stranger than strange X factor feel. On one hand, I shall, unfortunately, forever remember Eton Road’s second to last flopped attempt to stay in the competition by covering ‘I Don’t Feel Like Dancing,’ (in which I feel Anthony could have made a ...  Read the complete review

The american band "Scissor Sisters" return this year. Fun, camp and wonderfully wierd, this band should not be tossed aside lightly after a glance at their outrageous attire. They clearly think their album is magic - but is it? Well, it certainly pulled a bunny or three out of the hat. "I Don’t Feel Like Dancing” is the lead single from “Ta-Dah”. This song was extremely well received in the UK and has experienced astounding success so far – it has spent three weeks at the top chart spot up to now and helped the album shoot straight to number one too. The success is well deserved – funky, catchy, dancey and the sheer brilliance of it ...  Read the complete review

The Scissor Sisters formed in New York in 2001, and had a huge global hit with their debut, self-titled album, which was the best selling album of 2004. It was always going to be hard to follow on from this success and the band certainly took their time in making sure they got an album that they wanted. When I heard the first single off this new CD entitled 'I Don't Feel Like Dancing' I was relieved that they were still going to make good, fun, listenable pop/rock tracks and pre-ordered the album, hoping that the rest will match up to such a strong single. The CD kicks off with 'I Don't Feel Like Dancing', which is co-written by their new best friend Elton ...  Read the complete review

The Scissor Sister, Ta-Dah is a CD which I will admit I bought only for the one track, I Don't Feel Like Dancing as I really like this song. I am happy to say that I was pleasantly surprised when I listened to the other songs on here as I did enjoy nearly all of them. Inside the CD case is a booklet which contains details of all the songs and also the words so you can sing along if you wish. Also here you can find the running time of the songs and a Thank you from the group to the people who helped with the making of the CD. The CD has a total of 12 tracks and a bonus track at the end. The track list is:- 1. I Don't Feel Like ...  Read the complete review
