I thought I'd start a positive thread!

I think Neil's best outweigh his worst by some considerable margin.

There's just so much good stuff, some already listed here.

Have at it everyone, but I can't even begin.

In the true PSB spirit of celebrating negativity rather than positivity, what are Neil's worst lyics?

How about the tautological Planes taking off to fly from Hold On?

Last post

From “Everybody will dance” (which I love):

Tonight I need another
secret to discover
A temporary pleasure
always and forever

Surely a temporary pleasure would not be for always and forever? Or am I just not interpreting this correctly?!!

He's always about finding it, forever searching.

It's a great record. It is a pity that it will never be officially released.

Last post

Some of those demos seem to have the vocals from the album versions. Maybe those aren't original demos?

Maybe it's that when the live arrangements were being produced, they use the original studio vocals to save having to record guide vocals - effectively making them remixes at that point in the...

We swept into Moscow in Gorbachev’s limousine’: Neil Tennant’s love affair with Russia – before the ‘cancer of Putin’

Last post

Nah, the people you want us to be calmer and more balanced about (eg: Tommy Robinson) are off the charts.

Nice try, but you're just using weasel words.

And multiple with 3 to 3,5, you will get worldwide wide sales. British single sales was around 30 % that was the general norm.
Though there are exceptions. It’s A Sin sold d 2,1 million copies worldwide and Always On My Mind around 3 million. Used to work in the business.

Anyone know what it's about?

This mag has been kicking about for a while now. The first issue featured Chris on the cover, and goes for a few quid now.

It’s very much based on football casual terrace culture, mainly in the 80s, with the usually unmentioned undercurrent of hooliganism. The guy behind it’s obviously a PSB fan...

Sad news...

I ended up seeing the revival several times, and the production revealed itself as finely detailed and thought out, and the cast did great justice to the songs...

I wonder if some lucky buyers managed to obtain some souvenirs of the show...

''South London venue The Turbine Theatre,...

Last post

What a pity.

The venue did seem slightly out of place amongst the ultra rich and absent residents who (don’t) inhabit Battersea Power Station

I really enjoyed the production of C2H, and I think this venue, much like the Union Theatre, really added to the production.
