Scissor Sisters (dance, pop, punk, pink floyd, American)

How's everybody feel about them?

I think they're an excellent pop act, great fun if you're looking for something a little kitchsy and not too serious. Sadly, Americans would rather listen to Britney Spears and Kelly Clarkson than a pop band that's actually good for what they are.

I don't think Americans would, you've really only looked at 13 year old girls with spears, and Clarkson isn't that bad.

personally, i got turned onto scissor sisters on accident. i came across the Return to Oz and just fell in love with it.

i like them, i think they've got something very unique going on and they're good fun! i cant listen to them for too long however, i get a bit bored.

I hate them... Pahaha, just to be the first person to post something negative.

No I just dont like them. I swear they were following me during my work experience week. Wherever I went , I heard that damn piano intro to Laura. *shudders* Yes, too damn annoying pour moi.

I don't get the hostility a lot of people have towards that cover.

A. It wasn't made for fans of Pink Floyd, it was updating a classic to make it fun and danceable for the casual listener. Which, no matter how much you love Pink Floyd, it did.
B. Most covers suck anyway.

I like 'em. I think that they are fun to listen to.

Forget killing a classic. The song was just bad, if they had written it I'd have thought it sucked. Its just aweful, I havn't heard it in awhile but from what i recall its too choppy and disjointed.
