American band The Scissor Sisters have completed an impressive double by topping both the British singles and album charts.
Their single 'I Don't Feel Like Dancin' has been in pole position for three weeks, but it was joined yesterday by their second album Ta-Dah, which dispatched Justin Timberlake's Futuresex/Lovesounds down to number three.
The New York pop group, whose eponymous debut album sold 2.5 million in the UK alone, successfully fended off a strong challenge from The Killers in the singles chart as their 'When You Were Young' climbed from five to two.
The Scissor Sisters are said to be launching a bid to conquer their homeland. Lead singer Jake Shears told Billboard Magazine: "American music fans are just as musically open-minded as their British counterparts... but the powers that be in the U.S. may not be as open-minded. Which, to a degree, will hold us back in the U.S."
Shears then added: "Tons of Americans would love our music, but they don't know we exist."
The top ten singles:
1. (1) Scissor Sisters - 'I Don't Feel Like Dancin''
2. (5) Killers -' When You Were Young'
3. (2) Justin Timberlake - 'Sexyback'
4. (4) Nelly Furtado feat. Timbaland - 'Promiscuous'
