Re: ''The night I fell in love'' review by Wayne Studer

Also, "How Lucky I Am" is a cute song name, they should still use that one.

"You Choose" is the sister song to this track. If they didn't have that as a follow up I wonder if they'd of went ahead with TNIFIL. Because it's tells a good story over all - the messy relationship, and then the wise ...

Re: ''The night I fell in love'' review by Wayne Studer

I like the song!

Sure it's somewhat cringe, but not half as cringe as that #1 hit Stan. (which, let's face it, is only digestible bc of the Dido sample)

TNIFIL is just a gentle retort from the boys.

Stan is a fictional character so no idea why M&M took on their version of the story as a real ...

Re: Musik 2025 at Wilton's Music Hall

I like C2H (the energy and earnesty) but less enthused about this character and performer as a one person show.

It's so tiresome that anti-trans BS has been used as a wedge by state run troll farms to undermine all the positive things democracies achieved in the post-ww2 world. Looks like we're ...

Re: OUT TODAY: Innocent Money (Pet Shop Boys Remix Dub)

The drum-roll they keep using is really starting to grate on me. Since Purple Zone.

Nice track though.

Re: Pet Shop Boys & Olympics on Youtube

Neil sounds great in this!

Nice crowd loving it.

Very unique setting for them, in amongst it. No idea why people poo-pooed them getting involved.

Re: Name the next Pet Shop Boys album

Ecstatic

Sister album to Electric. I think they considered that title at the time?

Times are tough, so lean into that formula again I reckon.

Last two albums were somewhat autumny.

Re: Undertow to be released as next single

It's good to not create new threads I feel, better to reply to something even if it went off the boil years ago

Unless you're nickname, in which case start a new thread with every new sentence 🙃

Happy to see them make it to an Alternative Photographic Archives post.

They do light hearted look-alike jokes. In case you were lost - these are two characters from early Neighbours.

Not sure if it will make it to a t-shirt like Princess Diana, though.

Re: Which SMASH single was the most "forgettable"?

If I had to pick one, "Miracles" would be the one to drop.

Re: New PSB remix of Tina Turner?

Wonder how many times they've touched Aussie songs. Covered the Bee Gees and now a Vanda & Young mix (great song writers btw).
