I am hugely disappointed by Hotspot. As somebody else pointed out on this forum N & C yet again fail to put the adequate tracks on an album, filling it with b-side material. And the lyrics are really sub-par. Perhaps it's because there is no record company saying 'no' anymore.
Anyway, I decided to...

Greetings,

Following the success of a recent Pet Shop Boys tribute night I organized, the venue have invited us back... this time for a New Order Tribute night to co-incide with their upcoming Australian tour.

Just as we slipped a few New Order and Electronic tracks into the playlist of the Pet...

Does anyone know why the PSB or their team chose to put bird sounds at the beginning of the track?

The end of Will O Wisp (Last 15 seconds) feels a little tacked on just to blend in better with You Are The One. Personally I feel that last 15 seconds was not needed, and the bird sounds would have...

For me, at least, I can :

1. Willo the wisp.
2. At rock bottom.
3. Happy people.
4. Dreamland.
5. Hoping for a miracle.
6. I don't wanna.
7. Monkey business.
8. No Boundaries.
9. An Open mind.
10. Burning the heather.

The iTunes commentary for Elysium confirms that It Couldn't Happen Here is going to be released on DVD.

Talking about people that the PSB could work with:

David: Barbara Windsor sings.

Neil: We've worked with Barbara Windsor.

David: Oh, of course. She's in It Couldn't Happen Here .

Neil: Which...

Thought this might be worth a topic of its own so we have a place to put them as they come in.

Translations appreciated!

Hi there!

This is my first post here... So risky... But I shall do it! :wink:

The closing track of Hotspot is definitely controversial for many of us: so weak , it's a shame , should have been replaced by decide , and so on...

My point of view: an instant gold nugget! A so unexpected track in...

It Couldn’t Happen Here finally gets a DVD and Blu-ray release in June 2020

Things we’ve already known:

- Two remixes have been done, according to their remix consultant in Mixmag

- “One or two years ago I was listening to the cassette demos and I’ve always liked this song we wrote on at the time we wrote Rent. It’s called New Boy. I was at Smash Hits at the time. It’s...

On January xx, “Monkey business”, the third new song from the forthcoming Pet Shop Boys album, is released. Their first version of the song had been written in the Super era. The chorus existed first; the verses came later, inspired by Neil imagining what Mick Jagger might sing if this were a...

Hello petheads

Long time lurker and even longer time die hard here.

I have it on very good authority that the US Tour this fall will be a co-headline one with NEW ORDER.

Major news I think.

Thoughts!?

It's time for that.

Hotspot delivery arrived this morning and my signed prints suffered significant damage in-transit. :(

Looks like the parcel took a knock to the corner and it's not particularly strong packaging.
