First 30 Seconds analised;
The start of the video features a girl walking towards a house and then procedding to push a doorbell, this girl as you only see her feet is a speculation and ties in with the transexual theme that the song has. Soon as the doorbell rings the song starts and a blacked stage is then lit up with a spotlight on the drummer as he starts playing, when the bass comes into the intro a spotlight then shows him and it finally does the same for the gutairist/lead. It features close ups on each member as they are introduced and are shown to be wearing a 1940's styled theme.
Song Lyrics;
Well you must be a girl with shoes like that
she said you know me well
I seen you and little steven and Joanna
Round the back of my hotel oh yeah
Someone said you was asking after me
But I know you best as a blagger
I said tell me your name is it sweet?
She said my boy it's dagger oh yeah
I was good she was hot
Stealin' everything she got
I was bold she was over the worst of it
Gave me gear thank you dear bring yer sister over here
Let her dance with me just for the hell of it
Well you must be a boy with bones like that
She said you got me wrong
I would've sold them to you
If I could've just have kept the last of my clothes on
Call me up take me down with you
When you go I could be your regular belle
And I'll dance for little steven and Joanna
Round the back of my hotel oh yeah
I was good she was hot
Stealin everything she got
I was bold she was over the worst of it
Gave me gear thank you dear bring yer sister over here
Let her dance with me just for the hell of it
Chelsea Chelsea I believe that when your dancing
Slowly sucking your sleeve
That all the boys get lonely after you leave
And it's one for the Dagger and another for the one you believe
Chelsea Chelsea I believe that when your dancing
Slowly sucking your sleeve
That all the boys get lonely after you leave
And it's one for the Dagger and another for the one you believe
The lyrics in this song suggest that he is singing his questions to a transsexual, at first he thinks she is a girl but then he later discovers shes a man before he sleeps with her. The original of the name Chelsea dagger is never fully explained in the song expect for her name, this could lead to many interpretations of it.
Album poster;
The album poster shows a illustrated woman on her back in a provocative position. It draws on the video theme of a 1940's inspired video, as the woman is wearing the app orate attire for that time era. The colour contrast between the album background and the font are designed to help catch the readers eye after the initial picture of a woman draws people in.
Album cover;
The album cover also follows the same theme as the majority of the Fratellis videos. The girls that are illustrated on the front cover are from the video "Flathead" The front cover itself is also a contrast each girl has a differnt coloured dress and hairstyle/hair colour to distinguish them apart. This is done to draw the publics attension.
