Re: Lost
Using the completion dates from Neil’s Literally diary to put them in chronological order, a Super “Further Listening” style playlist including the new Lost tracks would look something like this: 1. One-hit wonder 2. The dead can dance 3. A cloud in a box 4. The white dress 5. Kaputnik 6. Wierderse...

Re: New Album!
A while back they said they had written, so far, two albums worth of material. As we’ve seen in the past, when they make a statement like this they don’t just mean 20 or 24 songs, but rather enough high quality material that could comprise two actual releasable albums. After such a long interval I s...

Re: New Album!
I only know James ford from Depeche Mode. Not a fan of “Spirit” or of what I’ve heard of “Memento Mori” so far.

Re: Bands/musicians who have been influenced by the Pet Shop Boys
The band Suede have been open about their admiration for PSB. Both Johnny Marr and Bernard Sumner have discussed how PSB have influenced them as songwriters and producers. Bill Drummond of the KLF said the original, officially unreleased version of their “White Room” album and their single “Kylie Sa...

Re: Purple Zone and Decide on CD ?
Probably won’t happen, but it would be nice if they released a CD single of “Burning the heather” along with “Decide” and its remix with an issue of “Literally” or as a webstore exclusive.

Re: The 10-track "US-version" of Introspective that could've been
It’s interesting that a number of years ago a series of white label US 7” promos were discovered of edits of all six “Introspective” tracks. It seems EMI in the US may have very well considered a different configuration of “Introspective” for the US market after all. The edits seem to be professiona...

Re: Lost
Greetings, On a side note, this is the first time I remember an Annually book being "re-promoted"... normally it's sold out before release without that. Could it be that postage costs and living expenses are hitting hard, or might we be expecting Lost to become a multi-format release, wor...

Re: The 10-track "US-version" of Introspective that could've been
Being a new-ish fan at the time, I was stunned and delighted to hear “Domino Dancing” for the first time on US radio. That was back in the pre-Internet days when most often one didn’t know new music was imminent until one first heard it on the radio, saw it on MTV, or stumbled across a physical copy...

Re: Lost
Sorry I'm not adding anything of value to this conversation. But, lol, I've been on the forum for years (since the early 00s, I believe), just more of a lurker than a poster, lol. But anyway, I'm also from Michigan just north of Detroit. (near Mt.Clemens) Great to know there are some fellow fans so...

Re: Lost
Hey Dan, great to hear from you. I am from the UK but have always been intrigued by Kalamazoo as it is name-checked in one of my favourite childhood books, Dr Seuss’s Horton Hatches The Egg. And I drove close by a couple of decades ago when my wife and I took a road trip from Chicago to New York - ...

Re: Lost
While the dark techno album never emerged, fans remained excited by Chris’s idea. In 2020’s Annually, “Dan” wrote to ask specifically if these tracks would ever be released. While Chris couldn’t recall such a set of songs, Neil went further to put the notion to bed: “When he says “the dark techno t...

Re: New EP incoming?
They recorded “Agenda” before going into the studio for “Hotspot” and I really thought that was a cool way of doing things, something to tide everyone over. Of course for “Agenda” they had a specific subset of songs that fit a theme, so who knows if they have that this time around? I always thought ...

Re: Producers suggestions for a new PSB album
I think Klas Åhlund, who produced much of Robyn’s material, would be an outstanding choice.
