Description
To celebrate the 30 year anniversary of Shakespear’s Sisters seminal album Hormonally Yours, London Records have announced a special edition reissue. A double platinum and top 3 UK album, Hormonally Yours secured Siobhan Fahey and Marcella Detroit a place in British pop history, spawning the single Stay – which spent a staggering eight consecutive weeks at the top of the UK charts – and winning the duo an Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contemporary Song Collection. Hormonally Yours also features singles Goodbye Cruel World and I Dont Care, tackles friendships gone wrong on My Sixteenth Apology, powerful, dangerous attraction on Emotional Thing and documents a friends coming out on Are We In Love Yet?, and features fan favourite The Trouble With Andre, the full-throttle glam-blues of Cat Woman’ and glorious finale Hello (Turn Your Radio On)’: a glorious, earth-shuddering moment that recalls the epic melancholy of David Bowies Five Years and The Beatles A Day In The Life. Hormonally Yours provided the perfect encapsulation of Shakespear’s Sisters musical ying and yang; a deftly delivered balance of pop melody with a spikey alternative darkness.
