Re: Oversexualized video

I think the video is great. After reading the OP, I thought it was going to be gay porn or something, but it's not that at all. It's nice to see PSB being comfortable with sexuality of all kinds.

Yes, and Love Life a few others. It all draws from past songs in a way. I like the production.

Definitely not going anywhere near Telegram until they stop supporting white supremacy.

Re: 10 years of Electric

Electric is a solid alum. Don't particularly like the mixing/mastering though, it's slammed to the max.

Reunion is a great song. Weird that they tossed it aside.

Only heard it a couple times now and am really impressed. Love the production and lyrics, and Neil sounds great on it.

Re: Suburbia (Arthur Baker 1986 Remixes)

Remastred both the club and dub mix. This is what "remastered" means actually...here a comparison between the new digital release and the version on the Aurally CD. Once you match the volumes, they sond exactly the same to my ears...but you can see all the frequencies that were cropped on...

Re: The Guardian ranks Pet Shop Boys’ "30 greatest songs"

A good read, nice to see a lot of great songs from the second half of their career in there (although I wouldn't have necessarily picked the same ones, of course).

Re: Smash - The Singles 1985 - 2020

Yes, Before is one of their best singles ever. Still fresh. And the remixes are ace. And Was it worth it is fantastic too, but we talked about that in another thread. Tbh I don't mind either WIWT? or Together but they're slightly superfluous as they were recorded to promote greatest hits albums and...

Re: MTV 80's and MTV 90's

I don't know what has actually happened to the MTV Channels. They are certainly not like they used to be. I cannot even watch them now they are that bad. No actual music is on them. (The last time I looked). Well, most of the cable channels long ago discovered that they could make a lot more money ...

Great. So you’ll stop replying to me?! Huge win. This is a great synecdoche of Harry's point re: fans.

Re: Lost

A little late, but finally had a chance to listen to the EP a few times while driving around today. A pretty nice group of songs and actually better than what I was expecting, so bravo to the boys. The last 2 song are a bit on the nose, but since I agree totally with the sentiment of them, I am tota...
