That new Scissor Sisters single? — Forum Archive

Are the Bee Gees collecting royalties on it?

If not, they fcuking should be.

Points for originality? -4/10

I think it's more Leo Sayer than Bee Gees, but you have to admit what they're doing is a lot more punk than three chord rock!

They're ace live, easily one of the best live bands I've ever seen.

Thought it was more Elton than Bee Gees.

I can take or leave the Scissor Sisters really; some decent pop tunes in there but the over-the-top campathon becomes tiresome after a remarkably short while.

Nothing wrong with giving your musical heroes a nod in your songwriting but that track has nothing unique or original about it at all. Just staggering they got away with such a blatant rip off.

Chris, their Elton John pastiches were on the first album! :uhoh:

ELTON plays piano on the new single.I love it me,liked them at LIVE 8,just a shame they got to do 3 songs to Mariah Carey's 6.

I too think it sounds like 70s Elton. I can't stand it anymore. I turn the radio off every time it comes on.

Gross.

You need Cillit Bang......or something.....for 'those' kind of stains.......

What is it with men, that they have big enough mouths to spout off, but miss it when it comes to shovelling curry into it? :evil4:

Ya... I even went to see them live, thankfully accompanied by a lady. They were actually quite good.

Leo Sayer should be suing.

Which song is the single?

Also, I like Scissor Sisters... in very limited doses, though... when I'm in the mood for gaytastic gay music... which sometimes I am.

Not all the time, though.

Jem. Want to stay on fence so I don't fall into aforementioned pile of turd :lol:

I am really disappointed with it to be honest. Loved the first album and I hope this single is just an embarrassing filler on the new one because that's it's level. I just don't think they have put much effort into it. Tres bland and unoriginal relative to 1st album.

Oh bollocks! Just thought.It's got trademarks of getting the embarrassing dancer mams, dads, aunties and uncles on the dancefloor at Weddings hasn't it?

Please no :banghead:

8 Sep 2006, 07:26

Phew! Maybe this will put an end to Ana Matronic sniffin round New Order at least...

Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd is a Fave of mine.Absolutley murdered by these clowns IMHO :nod:
