New Video Roundup! Scissor Sisters, The Gossip & Rufus Wainwright

New music videos are popping up everywhere, so I think it's time for a quick video round up:

First off, Rufus Wainwright's new album Out Of The Game features production by Mark Ronson is scheduled for a May 1 release. Wainwright mentioned wanting to go for a  poppier, dancable sound but the title track is more alt-country. The song may require a few more listens to really be enjoyable but the video stars Helena Bonham Carter, so it's definitely watchable!




Meanwhile, The Gossip returns at the end of May with A Joyful Noise. Lead single "Perfect World" is glorious Duran Duran style pop, with a fierce chorus and drums. The video stars dancers in a medieval church with the stained glass windows turning like a kaleidoscope.



Scissor Sisters already dropped one single from their upcoming album Magic Hour, the Cazwell-style "Shady Love" The new single, "Only The Horses" is more sleek but equally dancable, thanks to production from Rihanna's cohort Calvin Harris and Alex Ridha. The sound is not a unique as their previous stuff, but it's good so I'll take it. Lyric video:
