Do The Strand - Scissor Sisters (Roxy Music Cover) in aid of Warchild. [www.idfld.com]

[JohnnyLovelyMusicVid]

the vocals are TERRIBLE! They try to make up for the annoying vocals by using a bunch of synths... well it's not working. i definitely wouldnt compare it to Blondie (one of my favorite bands) because Debbie is (well.. she used to be) an excellent singer and whoever this is in this band is not. the backing track is alright, the vocals are horrid.

[801liveable]

really good cover..but for this song you have to keep the weird, offbeat voice of BRYAN FERRY, but this is good.. too bad they didn't sing this when they were on the JAY LENO SHOW a couple of months ago..would have had them dancing in the aisles..

[SonOfLancereto68]

I agree with you OBrien548. If this version had been around in the days of Studio 54, they would have played it into the ground, or, should I say, into the glitter and coke covered dance floor? Cover songs are just that, one bands interpretation of a previous classic. Roxy Music built a solid house and the Scissor Sisters flipped it into a party room that we can all appreciate and enjoy over 34 years later!!!! Great vision SS!!!!

[OBrien548]

May i remind you that that is a man singing at 0:43

[OBrien548]

Oh my god so catchy it should be illegal

Fantastic

[mosriteluv]

I like this version & I'm a huge Roxy Music fan. It's like Donna Summer's "I Feel Love" meets Blondie's "Heart of Glass".

[jagdpanther1944]

meh debbie harry could have done it

[1972amazona]

Congrats Sissor Sisters Ye do a briliant job on this very ferry funky iTS NOT OFTEN THAT I LIKE ANY ONE DOING ROXYS SONGS YE HAVE NAILED IT

[sand9060]

OMG what a croc of sh££ I cant believe they actually got away with this. This is one of the worst ever cover version of an iconic song!!!!!!!!!!!! Listen to the Roxy Version and you will see what Im on about......... This is THE song EVERY Roxy fan wants at GIGS. Not a patch on the original sorry SS

[macwhites]

Not as outright RISIBLE as I was expecting. Still did a little puke in my mouth halfway through though...

[bundleHastings]

Thoroughly VILE.

[legodarknight101]

Oh my god! That is not as good as the Roxy version.

[NapoleonXVI]

I wish there was a version of this without the intro thing

[FieldHockey007]

Haha! Just listen to it while imagining Roxy Music on GWT doing 'Do the Strand'

Bryans voice has gone a bit hasn't it? lol

It's a good cover, better than I imagined. :)

[mibeesaye]

Thank you.....great music in our day....

[remindbender]

ATHENAI:

"in your head"

heathen UP amnesty internationalls!

befor*g*e scissors;-))

fuxxx the so low

does the band strand

[edwatt100]

it figures that the sisters would cover this fabulas 70`s anthem! so well...... they have an up dated sense of theatre and glam that roxy were masters of!... WOW what a great version.....would love to know know what BF thinks about it?

[marcel06011981]

III LOVVEEEE ITTT!!!!!

[DubbleM900]

Fun fact about this album:

Given the theme of "placing faith in the next generation," the concept of the album is to have music legends select a track from their own canon and nominate an artist from the next generation to create a modern reworking of that song.

So Roxy actually chose the Sisters for this song.

[LosDelMango]

Blimey, that worked a lot better than I thought it would.

[superchocolate1000]

heard this for the first time today,its FAB, can't get enough!!!!!!

[RMCKIE]

I love it, much better than I thought it might be.

[bearcagela]

love them. I didn't know they were cool enough to know Roxy Music.

[DejectedPanda]

Why wouldn't they know Roxy? They are obviously inspired by 70's glam rock in a big way.

[bearcagela]

true. I don't know what I was thinking. :-)

[mrroxy1000]

go girls xx

[Kazhouh]

<3 love it !

[cheeseface94]

s'alright. the original will always be better though.

[zeke85]

love the song it sounds awesome.

[mozalicious]

They will always rock! I love the cover!

[mightybooshmakemelol]

Hmm...okay cover.

Prefer the original.

[rajulelmai]

Uf. This is painful. Come back to the five and dime, Scissor Sisters, Scissor Sisters.

[hadah07]

I love The Scissor Sisters... They're the best!!!!

I love this song... a greate great cover!!!

n.n

[Sproutsaint]

man this sucks

[LynleeG]

I love this!

[KerreyTheBitterSugar]

Oh well... after they'd done Pink Floyd, everything could be expected from this crazy band

[wiggystardust]

Roxy Music have been my favourite band for over 30 years...

this is a decent cover, they've made it into a new song, it's the only way to cover Roxy

[piratebastard1]

@wiggystardust totally agree, friend! the best covers are unique interpretations of the original, rather than the same song, new band.

[callum709]

<3 love the scissor sisters, glad they're back! :)

[catokoch]

i just love it...

[chempanillo]

Dios, la oficina patas abajo!!!!

Brutal!!!

[Neamento]

It's funny, you either love it or hate it. It's a marmite cover. I love it.

[CelebratedMadeline]

Horrible

[edooslo]

Fantastic version of the song!! This summer biggest hit is here.

[mybluelou]

This sounds like Rocky Horror meets Donna Summer....

Very strange.

But it grows on you after a few listens.

[wingsandash]

Chaka Khan + Donna Summer, with a dash of Blondie ?

[Lvpo]

+ under the influence of the Bee Gees :)

[wingsandash]

Of course. Always. :)

[Electra100]

AAAARRRRGGGHHH!!!! what have they done?????? I'm a long time Roxy fan & love the Scissors, so I was really looking forward to hearing this.

BUT

It's HORRIBLE.

gutted :(

[ElenaisdeBeste]

Roxy Music <3!

I like this version! =D

[mad4timbo]

Nobody should ever be able to cover Roxy songs, in fact, there should be a law against it!

[xcollyflourx]

haha its so weird you gotta love it!

[AmyLeanne714]

<3 it!!!!
