An article in Spanish about the album:

I remember listening to Domino Dancing and thinking it sounded awful for me but then discover the second single Left to my own Devices and becabe a fan, I love the song. At that time the Neil's voice sounded to me a bit gay, I wasn't wrong, hehehe.

Happy...

The Soft Cell comparison in this review was interesting - that never occurred to me at the time. The format reminded me instead of those old Donna Summer / Giorgio Moroder EPs with the extended disco songs. She also threw in the odd medley like Soft Cell did. Probably a source of inspiration for...

Haha some people really need to let go of Bubadubadubadum.

Let’s hope this becomes the Spotify playlist it should be in accompaniment to an actual album of new tracks. Enough with the navel gazing.

Behaviour is probably the most intense record I’ve ever immersed myself in, a beautiful, poignant and sophisticated recollection of adolescence, growing up, and moving on in life.

As a teenager, you undoubtedly perceive things more intensely – especially if you feel that the author of a work such...

I marvelled at the secret appeal of Pet Shop Boys and how much they must be loved for anybody to want to buy West End Sunglasses.

A sign of true devotion indeed :lol:

Well I’m still waiting on the signed copy from Coles.

I’ve mailed them a few days back and no response.

I’m not holding my breath.

This saga....this thread...there’s enough material here to write a song. What do ya say Neil?

Anyone with a Twitter or FB account? If she's ever been tagged in a photo previously should recognise her I believe.

Since 2011 BBC4 has been airing Top of the Pops episodes, in chronological order from 1976 onwards. This week the episode originally aired on 08 August 1985 will be shown, which means PSB'S first appearence from November 1985 is just around the corner, and from that point they will be making...

The thing I don't get about the Smith veto is how the presenter actually has the power to do that? Mate, you read out the chart positions, made some crap jokes and introduced the number one. They may as well have asked the best boy's permission to air each episode.

It’s utter madness isn’t it....

He's also made a song based on Domino dancing , Paninaro , and Jean-Michel Jarre's Zoolookologie

I discovered this one a few weeks ago. It is indeed excellent! He does some great videos taking one through his analogue synth collection too, definitely recommended :-)

Thought I'd share this with you. It's a playlist based on 'Disco' and 'Introspective' plus other contemporary tracks, because I've been listening to both those again a lot recently.

(Unless otherwise specified the version is that from 'Disco' or 'Introspective')

The final results are in for my poll of the past week, in which I asked my site visitors to pick two Pet Shop Boys singles: (1) the one for which the song is the most better than its music video, and (2) the one in which the video is the most better than the song. And the single/video combos that...

Why no 'Patience Of A Saint' as well in that case?

When I set up this poll, I didn't know that the Comments feature wouldn't be working. I'm still hoping it will be fixed before the poll is over. The reason I didn't include Patience among the choices is explained there with the poll: If an album...

I just LOVED listening to Neil narrate this. Truth be told, I could here Neil recite the Bible and would be in love. Anyway, it was also written by Neil....he totally should do more writing and narration on other projects like documentaries, films and books.
