Re: Vocal (Stuart Price Mix)

I think some people on here are asking for too much and are never satisfied. Two fiftysomethings bring out an thoughtful and moving album that even makes the top ten, but their fans want to dance to their 'early stuff and more strobes and banging', they comply and we get a dance album (and tour) a y...

It is down. I managed to copy it as I still had the window open. I've posted it here on this page.

Re: Quietus Electric Track by track

Luckilly I still had my window open, before the site went down and I've copied it. :) Aha! Here we go! Wooooooooooo! Pet Shop Boys open their 12th album - and first self-released record - with a track that screams 'yes! Freedom! Triumph! Techno! Men in hats! No not those men in hats, with their flac...

Re: Tomorrow

There is some writing on the accompanying blue and yellow pic. The letters seem to be 'u' and 'c' as in the word 'construct'. Just a guess. :)

Not what I was expecting from the thread title. I thought this was going to be something about audience structure or diversity or something. A nice surprise. :)

Re: Elysium is such a poignant album to listen to now

I totally agree. They tend to keep quiet about business so we'll never know the precise sequence of events. But if they went I to the studio knowing this was going to be the last one, they chose to spend a ton of their own money making a very personal statement knowing it wouldn't receive any label...

Re: PSB albums certifications

According to this you need to sell 80,000 to get platinum certification in Canada.

Re: PSB feature in July Q Magazine

That iTunes review is either uncanny in it's precognition or was written with inside knowledge that a dance album was on the cards. When was it first known that Neil and Chris were recording Electric? Thanks, Markpro.

Just to say that there is now a playlist of the music chosen by Neil and Chris for this show via Spotify.

Re: Electric, new single, first tour date, etc

Yup. That photo does nobody any favours. Drico. And that is why I can never see Pet Shop Boys in the top ten singles chart ever again. have you seen the current top 10? not exactly full of beautiful people I'm not referring to looks. Neil and Chris both look lovely. I meant they look their age.

Thanks, jut2k.

Interesting, right at the start of the interview, Neil implies Electric was a reaction to an "extremely annoying" and "very very aggressive" review of Elysium. This isn't accurate is it; Electric was always on the cards.

Together, Winner, Leaving, Axis, Vocal ...

Pet Shop Boys are beginning to like one word titles on their singles as much as their albums. 8)

Re: Neil on Hatred

But if you listen to songs like "Winner" I can't help but think he also lost a lot of his hatred over the years. Embarrassing song, IMHO. It comes with age. You're generally more angry, political and passionate when you're young. As you get older you realise you have less opportunity to m...
