"Shady Love" is a song by American pop band Scissor Sisters which features front-man Jake Shears' pseudonym Krystal Pepsy and uncredited vocals from Harlem rapper Azealia Banks.

[1] The track was written by frontman Jake Shears, Babdydaddy (Scott Hoffman), Azealia Banks, and was produced by Alex Ridha (who also co-wrote the song).

[2] "Shady Love" received its first play on January 2 by BBC Radio 1 DJ Annie Mac[3] and was met with positive reviews, including NME who described it as "the first big hit of 2012".

[4] Talking about the song, Babydaddy stated: "It's a song we had fun making so while it wasn't necessarily true to the direction of the album or what most people might think of as Scissors, we thought it would be good to just get out there in between albums.

The video depicts a group of school children putting on a play, all lipsynching to the song.
