Makes sense for them to add a german track given they've been influenced by that scene..... modernises the play somewhat

Left To My Own Devices is both orchestral and their manifesto

Fundamental had a great blend of orchestra and electronic. We'll see that again.

Urm, I'm sorry are you new to their back catalogue

Sometimes feel like I'm the only person that thinks this film is absolute dog w***! I mean the acting is horrendous even from the actors!

It's very kitschy, not to everyones taste!

At the very least, the snippets worked terrific in Always On My Mind filmclip.

Pet Shop Boys: Obsession

Love a good instrumental from them... so this pleases me!

It's a good story, too.

I just read this review: https://www.thestage.co.uk/reviews/2019/closer-to-heaven-pet-shop-boys-review-at-above-the-stag-london/ It mentions the songs are great and so are the preformances, but the biggest problem with the musical is the book. Ah good review. One of the cast has pics from the progr...

Don't get why people think they can tell Neil or Chris were to spend their artistic time. There's massive things going on in the world. Massive. And it's hugely interesting.

It works best listening after a gap though... a bit like as if you were going to the theatre for the first time. As ...

Dictator is clearly about Kim. If Donald fits the dictator mold, then it says something.

We haven't even heard Dreamland.

One song does not an obsession make.

I refuse to participate in a cultural survey this omits Disco 2

Dreamland sounds remarkably similar to Luna Park.... fabulous

Love Bubadubadubadum

It's bright and quirky, painfully retro, and could of easily fitted in on Super (an album of boldly chiseled tracks)

Thank you!

Can anyone lip read what Neil is saying?

Looked intense. Were they debating where to go for dinner?
