Thank you for the link leesmapman. I was already aware of them and found the last one does not include the first song they played (the Blur song Girls and Boys (PSB Remix)). For some reason it has been omitted from the youtube recording hence why I asked if anyone has their own recording.

There are no PSB songs titles that start with one of those 3 letters.

All the others are taken.

As been mentioned there’s been plenty already and when I contacted Mark Farrow a few months ago he said there would be more since 1984 items available sometime this year so guess we need to wait until it’s announced. My guess there may be some available at the upcoming concerts this summer.

There is another thread about Loneliness but it's more oriented about the song but I think is better to have another thread about the b-sides. Well, they are two proper songs.

I think Party in the Blitz is a good song, not with the typical sound from PSB but If like it. :D

Through You is better...

If we put in the title Olympics parade or Olympics celebration with Pet Shop Boys , many people will look for it on Youtube, not Pet Shop Boys...

Very unique setting for them, in amongst it. No idea why people poo-pooed them getting involved.

Greetings,

Which of the 55 singles featured on SMASH is the most forgettable... in the sense that sometimes you forget it was even released as a single at all?

I don't mean in the sense of being a weak song necessarily - just that when you think of the Pet Shop Boys canon, it's rarely foremost in...

Easy selection for me, Together is truly awful that makes Shouting In The Evening sound like a Pet Shop Boys classic!
