The new Scissor Sisters single 'Only The Horses' is very good

Just a normal Saturday night at Scissor Towers
Ok so here's the thing.  The Scissor Sisters rock our socks.  There was a time when Calvin Harris did too, but now that everything in the world sounds exactly like a Calvin Harris song, the sock rocking has diminished significantly.

Which presents us with a conundrum.  The amazing Scissor Sisters, who are known for their singular viewpoint and unique take on modern pop, have joined forces with the still-amazing-but-overexposed Calvin Harris who makes everything sound like...well, a Calvin Harris song. 

Is it amazing?  Or is it annoying because the Sisters' sound has been diluted by "the machine" that is radio-friendly pop schlock?  The answer is that in the broader context of "THE STATE OF POP MUSIC" it is a very good version of something we've heard a million times before, albeit with a lot more soul than the usual autotuned garbage that litters the charts.  In isolation, though, when examined on its own musical merits, it is a tremendous feat of pop, and maybe just the thing to rid the Scissors of the stink of failure that still clings to them from their last album.

Plus there are sure to be some stomping remixes so to be completely honest it really doesn't matter how good the song is (even though we have already established that it is, in fact, very good).  Even if it was a hulking pile of absolute shit, the gays would still get some good shirts-off poppers-o-clock discowhistle action out of it, and at the end of the day isn't that what really matters?

The answer, of course, is no, but whatever.

Here's 'Only The Horses.'

Hi! Quick question that's entirely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My site looks weird when viewing from my iphone4. I'm trying to find a template or plugin that
might be able to resolve this problem. If you have any recommendations, please share.

Cheers!

I do write in my diary everyday. I'd like to start a blog so I can share my experience and feelings online. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or tips for new aspiring blog owners. Thankyou!

Fantastic blog! Do you have any suggestions for
aspiring writers? I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm a little lost on
everything. Would you recommend starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid
option? There are so many choices out there that I'm totally confused .. Any recommendations? Many thanks!

I drop a comment whenever I like a post on a site or if I have something to add to the conversation.
Usually it is triggered by the sincerness displayed in the post I browsed.
And after this post "The new Scissor Sisters single 'Only The Horses' is very good".
I was actually moved enough to drop a comment :-P I actually
do have a couple of questions for you if you don't mind. Could it be only me or do a few of these remarks look as if they are left by brain dead folks? :-P And, if you are posting at other sites, I would like to keep up with you. Could you make a list every one of your community pages like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?

Do you have any recommendations to help fix this problem?
