Not much hope for new PSB material anytime soon other than Cricket's Wife with Literally, anyone get into the french band Justice at all?

Not unlike PSB, they are a duo and the quieter one (Gaspard Auge) is releasing a solo album this June.

Attached is the album cover + link to Justice's BBC...

I finally got a hold of 100 lyrics and a poem and found the introduction very interesting. It's the closest we got to a memoir.
Anyway, what really got to me was Neil's songwriting and near musical career in the 70's. So what if...

Dust got a record deal in 1972 and released an album before Neil...

Looking forward to Hotspot next month, and wanted to provide an early Xmas present to help fill in the time gap!

I'm 100% confident these tracks won't see the light of day in any type of release, as 1997 was still pre-smart phone and unlikely a high quality soundboard mix exists anywhere.

Quality...

I dawned on me that PSB were the very first to be rickrolled. All the way back at the end of summer 1987 when What have I done to deserve this? would become nr 1 on the UK singles chart but then came Never gonna give you up...

Then came the revenge in the epic battle for christmas nr 1 in 1987 where PSB beat Astley.

I...

Apologies if this has been posted before, but has anyone asked their Amazon Alexa 'who is your favourite band?'
:D

I read 100 lyrics & a poem and is struck by the comment to ICHH on page 87 my friend was beaten up by the homophobic occupants of the flat below him .
We're talking about an AIDS-struck man near his death beaten up by his own neighbours. Truly horrifying times we've lived through.
And at the same...

I don't know if this belongs to off-topic or here, so feel free to move it if necessary

Thoughts?

Anybody shared the affinity for Swedish radio chart Tracks on Saturday afternoons?
I was glued every week to the countdown on Tracks, the weekly radio chart as voted by the listeners, who were everybody in those days.

Tracks was THE way to get hold of all the good music in the 80's and 90's.
PSB...

West End girls recently surpassed 100 million views on YouTube. And It's A Sin will do so in a few days. I thought it would be interesting to see how their videos rank in terms of YouTube views. This only counts views from the official Pet Shop Boys YouTube account. Rent, Absolutely Fabulous and...

I have always loved the disco of Johan Agebjörn and his work with Sally Shapiro. For those that don't know Sally Shapiro, check out her albums that Johan Agebjörn wrote and produced:

Disco Romance:
My Guilty Pleasure:

And the remix albums:

Remix Romance Vol. 1:
Remix Romance Vol. 2:

For the sake of information, and to all the completists and analytics I spotted a new West End girls cover.
My Spotify radar suggested it to me.

West End girls cover

Okay, so this is a tad stalkerish but this is a video of Chris' brother (ok I am bored in lockdown!)

It's funny to see the similarities in the way they speak :-) Apart from that the video is very boring unless you are into labels!

Does anyone have or can point me to hi-res scans of the Discography cover, back and front? Ideally the LP version?

Thank you - any help really appreciated.

I made a new Pet Shop boys remix - The Samurai In Autumn (Pepster Remix)
Enjoy

Type Pet Shop Boys in the jukebox sampler to listen to AI generated music in their style. We don't need them anymore.

PS: a YouTube tutorial in case anyone wants to try:

Hello all.

I have a weird question. At Glastonbury, when Tennant and Lowe performed with The Killers, Tennant was wearing this rather cool dark coat. It has this very unique badge on the back that said something like, erm, nononononono.

There's a picture of it at the above link.

Anybody got...

I don't know if it was posted before. It's amazingly well done. That's why I post it here. It's alson on Youtube section.

Pet Shop Boys - Always On My Mind (CR Deluxe Edition):

Angry Neil (my favourite). Neil's voice sounds harsh, aggressive. Can be heard on It's a sin, Opportunities to some extend
Speaking Neil. Neil's rapping. West End girls, Left to my own devices.
Soft Neil. Neil's voice is soothing. Examples: Being boring, Leaving.
Shouty Neil. Neil's shouting....

Tomorrow would have been the first date on the PSB/NO Unity Tour.

I had (still have for the rescheduled dates) tickets for Toronto's Budweiser Stage.

Feeling kind of bummed about it today, but hoping that there's something new on the horizon from New Order (their mysterious Facebook post stating...

Congratulations PSB :D

Just picked up the 2013 expanded version of Electronic's debut album. The 2-CD collection comes with a long text about the birth of Electronic and the band's first years.
The text, written in that annoying language of english music critics, consistently describes Electronic's collaboration with...

I’ve just been watching “Young offender” on YouTube; the Nightlife Tour version.

Does anyone agree that the Jam and Spoon remix would have worked an ABSOLUTE TREAT on the Super Tour? Maybe directly after “Vocal”?

Seeing Neil hitting the keyboard alongside Chris always gets me going! (Doing the...

Always loved this song. Nice insight into the chord structure and the complexity therein.

Any muso's out there care to comment on whether its as 'sophisticated' as it sounds. I'm a bit of a dullard. Sounds complex...

Hi all! I've previously shared a few blog posts I've written about Pet Shop Boys gigs I've been to here. I haven't been on the forum for a while and I feel slightly sheepish to return just to share some more blog posts, but well, here I am! :)

Previously I blogged mainly about gigs but in the...

I don't know about anyone else, but some days (yesterday's Cardi B tweet sprarked it this time) I do think as a PSB fan Wow, did I ever back the right horse back in 1985 .

Bands come and go, some are one hit wonders, some run for a few albums and then fade into obscurity, but here we are, as fans,...
