Re: PSB & OMD
The "Sugar Tax" album from 1991 definitely felt like it had some PSB influence in the production. Sounded more like PSB than it sounded like OMD's previous couple of records. Check out songs like "Speed Of Light" or "Pandoras Box". That may be the reason why I love Pan...

Re: Wilderness years?
Bilingual b-sides I meant. The bilingual album itself was 75% nonsense. Interestingly Bilingual was the album that restored my faith in the Boys. I had found Behaviour a dismal experience (except the majestic This Must Be the Place...) and Very way too jubilent and joyous for me to like it; it was ...

Re: New Single - Loneliness
I must say the more i listen to Loneliness the more i like it, first time i heard it i wasn't impressed now i can say it's instant classic to me. It's one of this songs which first time listen don't get to you quickly but gets better over time. Agreed. I had a rather lukewarm reaction on first list...

Re: Your Instant Classics
Suburbia- The first time I fell in love with the Boys. The opening notes made me jump out of my seat and run to the casette player to hit the "record button" without any conscious thinking. Always On My Mind- I had already heard the news about it, I was expecting to love it but I was not e...

Re: New Single - Loneliness
A top 10 UK single is a top 10 UK single. It's a win in my book... Curious to know if the album sales count towards singles sales of Loneliness...4000 zoetrope albums would amount to a good add on when it counted the most... Let's put it into another perspective: If Discography featured Loneliness,...

Re: New Single - Loneliness
It says "reentry" and the single charted for 4 weeks. Doesn't this reflect a good sales figure? I am pleasently surprised.

Re: If PSB top 5, who are other 4?
I expected to see more Madonnas but am pleased to see very few Coldplays, yay. That said, Adventure of a Lifetime is a superb song. Wish every Coldplay song was like that instead of whining all the way.

Re: Rank "Loneliness" (album version)
5. Nothing special, nothing terrible. Pointless. The Boys do this kind of tracks in their sleep and have done many times in the past and in a better way.

Re: When do you think we can expects first press previews and snippets of the new album
You've already heard it, nickname. Nothing on it is as good as It's a Sin or Always on my Mind. Nothing on it will appeal to ver kidz. Nothing on it will get a billion hits on YouTube. Hopefully there will be great album tracks or b-sides that match their imperial time output. It has been so since ...
