Sam Sparro recently released “Shallow End,” the first track from his upcoming new album, Return to Paradise. Set against an Instagram clip—similar to the one Goldfrapp released not long ago—the video for the song features footage shot during the album’s recording sessions.
“End” is a more upbeat, disco-infused song than Sparro’s 2008 hit, “Black and Gold.” It’s got a kind of dance-all-night-with-ball-queens kind of vibe (not to mention the de rigueur sax solo).
Fans of Scissor Sisters and Hercules and Love Affair, this one’s for you.

Dear Queerty,
Please FACT check when you do your work so as not to perpetuate fucking stereotypes. This sentence: “It’s powerful imagery considering in many Middle Eastern countries women are prohibited from driving at all” is factually wrong. The ONLY country in the world (Muslim or otherwise) where it is illegal for women to drive is Saudi Arabia.

I don’t know about the Tori Amos video, but when I saw “Bad Girls” I was surprised to find recreations of scenes that I had watched in an amateur short film way before this was released. You might want to take a look at this: bit.ly/ymst6h
