Re: Track-by-Track: From Please to Nonetheless

I really dislike the 7" version. It's pretentiously over the top.

Re: New single „Dancing star“ (digital April 3rd / CD May 3rd)

Why am I dancing? 3:32
A new bohemia 4:00
The schlager hit parade 3:28
Bullet for Narcissus 3:50

These tracks are of potential single-length. Of course Loneliness is 5:37 so this is pretty meaningless

Re: Track-by-Track: From Please to Nonetheless

A perfect, beautiful track; an emotional, fleeting moment caught in aspic. It sits just right in the drama of the album.

Re: Pet Shop Boys - 5 UNRELEASED tracks from the Fundamental era (Superchumbo, Warren, demos, etc)

So, nickname, where are those snippets you said would obviously be released today?

Why do you post endless, pointless threads about nothing?

Why do you constantly try to draw attention to yourself, when you have little to say?

Why can't we live together?

Why am I even writing this?

Why?
Because nickname's universe is slightly different to ours

Re: Track-by-Track: From Please to Nonetheless

For me, I want a lover is the most forgettable track on the album. I find it clunky and unsophisticated. The horns and other synth sounds make it the most dated sounding track on the album.

Re: New album Nonetheless

It's not my style, I can't stand wearing band t-shirts or merch, but I'm not sure why it's lame. Some people enjoy it, and will love it. New here but the same negative voices on repeat make it a really horrible place. I ignored your posts about Jesus, but I could have called your response to that l...

Re: New single „Dancing star“ (digital April 3rd / CD May 3rd)

Agree it's hard to judge from a 30 second clip, however I have a feeling Dancing star's appeal may be a bit front-loaded - sweet and nostalgic on first listen but with diminishing returns. Happy to be proven wrong though.

Yep, although I believe Wham/GM have a similar arrangement which is why the 83-86 comps have been a toussle between them
