Re: Your Instant Classics

Hooked on Radiation (Pet Shop Boys Orange Alert mix), wow, that's a surprise. It's a well-known fact that PSB transform their remixes into the PSB soundscape, Being a big fan of Disco Potential, I found Hooked on Radiation to be sort of cut from that same cloth. All those woozy electroclash sounds,...

Re: New album Nonetheless

Queer folks would perhaps feel this more? Many are not partnered or have a steady set of friends. Social Apps are cruel and discriminatory. There is a funny but dark joke. "How to be invisible on Grindr...put your age as 30+"

Re: New Single - Loneliness

Was Burning the heather a single?! It's not on Smash. Listened to Hotspot last night and it's a lovely closing song - the trumpet is gorgeous, I just wish it sounded less demo-ish. I had to jump up to stop the record before the excruciating Wedding in Berlin started. LOL! I am all smiles when I hea...

Re: New Single - Loneliness

The more I hear it the more it gets better, way better, but.. it’s missing that build bridge up that I’m struggling to get over. Anyone else feel the same? wow..ditto just been hearing the EP endlessly now and I really have warmed up to the album version. i still am not a fan of those horns, but th...

Re: New album Nonetheless

LOL! how does that TS release 10 albums between 2019 and now...it's ridiculous and her 4th AOTY too now. Will she get a Nobel prize by end of this decade? I find it crazy that PSB have gotten only 1 UK #1, in their incredible career, Erasure have managed 5 and Depeche Mode 2! what is their rotten lu...

Re: Back to Parlophone

I never quite understood this whole publishing right business, owning recordings etc. I always presumed PSB were smart enough to do what was financially right to them. Touring ofcourse is a different vertical altogether and a 360 degree whatever deal hopefully covers everything. Could it just mean b...

Re: New Single - Loneliness

After multiple listens, I find Loneliness underwhelming. It has an interesting intro and lyrics (which are on the dot with today's social times) but the production feels so dated and derivative. Atleast the album version feels expansive, couldn't connect with the radio edit. The B sides tell a diffe...
