"Filthy/Gorgeous" is a song by American disco group Scissor Sisters and is the seventh track on their self-titled debut album (see 2004 in music). It was released as the fifth and final single from that album in the United Kingdom and despite this, it was surprisingly successful commercially, peaking at #5 on the UK Singles Chart in January 2005, making it their first British top 5 single (see 2005 in British music). It also reached #1 on the British Dance Chart. This song appeared on the soundtrack to Tony Hawk's American Wasteland, and also is the theme to the NBC show Kath & Kim. It was also featured on the 2006 film It's a Boy Girl Thing.[1]

Music video

Some scenes are removed completely.
