On SNL tonight.
It's a fucking Bee Gee cover band doing Pink Floyd.
I honestly feel nauseas watching this.

2. Scissor Sisters are supposedly HUGE in the clubs... |
|
but I'll admit their performance, err, left a bit to be desired. :eyes:
It was like they were trying too hard, and there wasn't really anything new or original there, it was like bits and pieces of stuff that's been done before thrown together into a huge mush.

Those dismissing the self-titled Scissor Sisters as a product of New York's latest band fad are jumping to conclusions. Yes, there's a certain cabaret aspect to what they do, but that's not to dismiss them as frivolous nightclub entertainment. That's only half the story. "Comfortably Numb" may nod to gay disco but this eclectic bunch of fashionistas have more interesting reference points tucked up their puff sleeves. If anything, the prevailing mood here is sunny AM rock, the kind of thing you might have tuned into in 70s New Jersey. "Take Your Mamma Out," perhaps the first song about coming out to your mother in a gay club, and sung by Jake Shears like primetime Elton, is a cracker. So too "Tits on the Radio"--slick barroom boogie that takes a venomous swipe at New York's increasing conservatism. Best here, though, is the anthemic "It Can't Come Quickly Enough," a retro carve-up of Nick Kershaw and the Pet Shop Boys that's more powerful than it sounds. Ignore it at your peril. --Paul Tierney
Jeez, seems you can spin just about anything.

It was barely recognizable.
Truly awful. Tragic even.

Think if Ashley had "performed" a Led Zepplin cover...
That was how bad this was.
