Hot Chip remix? What's that? I haven't heard anything about a remix of PSB by Hot Chip or vice-versa. I must be out of the loop on this one.

If my publisher will pay my airfare, I wouldn't mind something like this. But I wouldn't hold my breath. :lol:

Re: Two new books by our own Geowayne are forthcoming: ‘Pet Shop Boys: Song by Song’ Volumes 1 and 2!


I also question the ability to meaningfully cover multiple songs per page, but if anyone can distill analysis like that, Wayne can. The RW one is something like 500 tracks in 160 pages, which is just insanity.


At the risk of being a bit unseemly commenting on this matter at this stage (because ...

Re: New poll for rating the videos for the most recent PSB singles

Thanks so much to all of you for your very kind comments about my polls and how much you miss them. I really appreciate it!

I miss running them sometimes myself as well -- but only sometimes. But it was starting to get difficult and frustrating for me for several reasons that I won't go into for ...

New poll for rating the videos for the most recent PSB singles

Several site visitors have suggested that I get caught up on my website's ratings of the music videos for the Pet Shop Boys' singles (since I haven't run any such polls since "Monkey Business"). So I've finally gotten around to launch just such a survey. If you would like to take part, please visit ...

Re: Do you think "Nonetheless" has any song that could get into a Top 30 of best songs from PSB of all time?

None of them will make it into my own personal PSB Top 30 at this time. That, of course, could change down the road seeing as how my feelings about songs often evolve through the years. Right now the ones that come closest for me is "Love Is the Law" and "A New Bohemia." They would easily make into ...
