Description

I Don't Feel Like Dancin' is a song by American pop band The Scissor Sisters. It was released in August 2006 as the first single from their second album, Ta-Dah. The song was written by Jason Sellards, Scott Hoffman and Elton John, the last of whom provides piano for the song, and was the band's first top-10 single in many countries. The song gave the band their only number one in the United Kingdom to date and is one of their signature tracks. The song's tempo, arrangement, use of falsetto vocals and subject matter have been compared by reviewers to Leo Sayer's 1976 hit You Make Me Feel Like Dancing. The song also features a rhythm piano that makes reference to December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night) by The Four Seasons.The album continued its success in countries around Europe, in Australia and in Canada before the release of the band's second studio album Ta-Dah (2006), their second consecutive UK number one album which produced their first UK number one single I Don't Feel Like Dancin'. Their third studio album Night Work (2010) displayed a shift towards a more club-oriented sound, charting at number two on the UK Albums Chart, number one on Billboard's Top Independent Albums chart and in the top 10 of several international territories. The band released their fourth studio album Magic Hour in May 2012.

Scissor Sisters has performed around the world and have become recognized for their controversial and transgressive live performances. They also collaborated with a number of other well-known pop musicians, including Elton John and Kylie Minogue; these particular collaborations have been received positively by both critics and other notable figures. In 2004, Bono, lead vocalist of rock band U2, described Scissor Sisters as "the best pop group in the world". They also collaborated
with Global Cool in 2007 on one of their green lifestyle campaigns.
