Since not liking the Scissor Sisters is tantamount to not liking fun, let's just assume that everyone already adores this band and go on from there, OK? The Sisters' hotly anticipated second full-length feel like a streamlined continuation of their debut. It's hard to imagine no one had ever called an album Ta Dah! before, but then these sexy troubadours have no trouble subtly reworking the past to make it almost-new and always joyous. They may have emerged in a brief window when campy pastiche rock seemed like the next big thing, but just as their friends Fischerspooner did with the electroclash "movement," the Scissor Sister possess an elevated enough sense of fun, popcraft, and good enough connections to carry them for years. Hell, the first track on this album, the wonderful confection "Don't Feel Like Dancin," was co-written with Sir Elton John, and it sounds like Abba, Fleetwood Mac and Xanadu all at once. Other tunes might have you thinking of Bowie or the Bee Gees or Prince or Pink Floyd or even the Carpenters, but only as cagily reimagined in a glittery, wonderful, post-Hedwig/ Velvet Goldmine world. --Mike McGonigal

Fun and well crafted album, but none of the other tracks as good as "I Don't Feel Like Dancin'"...

I do love the scissor sisters and have since I first saw "Take your mama out tonight", on some music channel late one night. There seem to be a couple arguments as to the originality of their music. Of course that can be debated but what is really the point? My opinion (which I'll make short), there is rarely any original music anymore. Anyone can be compared to anyone. It's unfortunate but true. What I feel about the scissor sisters is they took quite a few different genres and ran with it. Honestly, ... Read More

Any fan of Seventies music like myself will love this album as with the debut - but what surprises the hell out of me is that not one review recognized what may well be the biggest influence upon the Scissor Sisters' sonic pallette.....put it this way, do not delay in your purchase of the following albums if money isn't an object: Blows Against The Empire, Dragonfly (featuring the minor Hot 100 hit "Ride The Tiger") Spitfire (featuring "With Your Love") and Red Octopus (this with the monster hit, "Miracles", ...

It has come to my attention that there is something called "fun" going on, and that this album has something to do with it. People mostly stopped making music like this after the seventies, for legitimate reasons. I really don't see why you people can't just shut up and sit down and listen to Dave Matthews.

The first CD was inspired, but this CD is a complete failure. It seems like the band produced a CD just for the sake of producing a CD. All the songs sound similar. Please, save your money this CD is a waste of time.
