Please take extreme care on emails from administration @ petshopboys-forum .com !!!!!!!!!!!
In the last days I recognise some emails about Tickets for PSB@ROH which I THINK could be a money trap. After we have to hold this email open for user requests and alerts via the contact link (at the...

Thanks for the heads-up! It’s crucial to be cautious with emails from admin@psb-forum.com, especially if they involve ticket offers. Always use official contact links for issues and avoid replying to suspicious emails.
I know yesterday (13th March) was the first time a new PSB track had been played in ages, but (as per the long standing forum rules) in future all public requests for copies of any new track, PSB or otherwise, will be deleted and/or threads containing requests closed. We will officially...
There are lots of PSB Vids (Fan vids or otherwise) on Youtube..
Thought there could be a unified thread of all the links :)
Let me start off with this one..
Mini-Pet Shop Boys Go West
Very cute (and the miming is perfect! Even Sylvia-Mason James'!! ) but are they the Future PSB?? :o

Comedy gold this one. The fanmade extended mix of Feel is a pretty basic cut & paste job (you can almost hear the cellotape joins!) but they've also decided to stick the lyrics on their video,.... well their version of the lyrics :lol:
Please post times, dates, channels, etc here so forum users don't miss out.
Please try not to drift into conversation in this thread as key posts may get missed.
Ta,

Hey hey guys!!!
This is my latest unboxing.

It's not an unboxing strictly since most of the stuff was already unboxed. The thing is I can't help opening stuff that comes around as soon as I get it. And on top of it, this time Nonetheless versions arrived at many...
I just got to think about it since I was reading some posts on the collectors discussion forum about the yes box.
And I wonder how much and for how long can the value of some collectibles raise.
Will there be a time when suddenly my collection doesn't worth a penny? Or at least less than what I...

I am not talking about now, as now there is a market for collections like ours. But the market for let’s say a Roy Orbison, Cliff Richard or even Dusty Springfield collection will be a lot smaller at the moment than they once were. That’s what the PSB will be in 20-30 years.
Just picked up the 2013 expanded version of Electronic's debut album. The 2-CD collection comes with a long text about the birth of Electronic and the band's first years.
The text, written in that annoying language of english music critics, consistently describes Electronic's collaboration with...

This is exciting. I wonder if the timing of the November residency will be to coincide with some new release (e.g, Nonetheless Deluxe, Disco 5, Dreamworld DVD etc etc). Dreamworld bluray will be next year, so that won't be it.
So as everyone already knows they've had a song in Saltburn and All Of Us Strangers. I was watching the TV show Industry and Opportunities was played at the end of season 3 episode one. They were also in the Netflix show The Decameron in episode 3 with What Have I Done To Deserve This?
I haven't seen this film yet but PSB are on the soundtrack like for Saltburn.

It becomes quite central because of the timing around Christmas. There are other bands given prominence, but it's clear the director felt PSB were important!

The bit in the Introspective version on Always on my mind where it sounds like the earth is being torn in half (c.5:27) always makes me feel an emotion. I like it.
This thread is for daily discussion of a Pet Shop Boys track, selected in chronological order, from studio albums starting with Please – including Further Listening – to the new album. The idea is to allow a 24-hour period of discussion for each track – then we move on to the next one. The first 11...

As a teenager, This Must Be... was my least favourite track on Behaviour, it's now one of my favourites.
Julian Mendelsohn's 7 minute extended mix is majestic (seek it out if you haven't heard it). How this version somehow didn't make it to the further listening disc is a glaring oversight !...
We have enough b-sides now for a third collection and I've been working on ideas for some time. The problem with a third collection is that at the point we left Format, there is a load of cover versions which I cannot see them front-loading a new album with. They have said that the 7 of Fugitive...

Hello and welcome! Don't pay attention to the negativity. It's amazing that PSB (and this site) are still attracting new fans - like you I was 14 or 15 when I joined the forum (back in the Aimoo days) and I'm still here aged 36! How did you get into PSB?
I ran across this little tidbit & I'm confused about who this Pigott is. I'm not @ home to rifle thru my PSB stuff to find out exactly what his connection is to PSB. Can anyone enlighten me ?

I become progressively more disappointed by New Order and more impressed by Peter Hook and the Light. He's got a class act going on there. He's very much a salesman but he also keeps the fans happy.

I mean… in general, in the west, what does a young gay man have to protest that’s unique to his sexuality? The 70-90s are where it’s at.
The fact you have to ask this is sad. Times are better for gay people in the UK, but there is still queer bashing and rampant transphobia.
Just looking at album covers and noticed, more often than not, that Chris is on the left and Neil on the right of the photo.

‘You do?’ says Neil, moving over. ‘I've...

The sad truth is that many artists feel they can't take original material submitted by fans because of the risk of being burned by plagiarism lawsuits (the artist releases new material and the fan then sues, claiming that the artist stole their ideas from the material they gave the artist).

Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe talk about “West End Girls” and how the wellspring of their songwriting is still fertile on their 15th studio album, the James Ford-produced Nonetheless, and remains as such.

Yes, some lovely commemorative stamps are produced these days - I agree with you on ''First Class'' for the Pets!
It just occurred to me that they should also grace an international stamp because then you could send them (*ahem*) All over the world .
Posted this in the 'PSB appearances' thread but just in case anyone misses it, I was listening to Gary Davies' Sounds of the 80s show on BBC Radio 2 this evening and he said there would be an announcement on Vernon Kay's show on Wednesday to tie in with Neil's 70th, for 'Pet Shop Boys fans'....

Marshall Jefferson's Being boring mix stays close to the original. David Morales Behavior-era remixes, which always sounded cool, but a bit like demos to me, seem to involve some re-recording from his team as they remake the tracks to work better in the new context.
