Re: Your bet for main single of "Nonetheless"

For the main single, i bet on a ballad, the schlager hit parade or bullet for narcissus.

Re: New single „Dancing star“ (digital April 3rd / CD May 3rd)

Can't be long before the first fan review...! Presumably the embargo on reviews lifts quite soon? Meanwhile, let's play 'guess the ballads' - based on what we know, and on track lengths, I'll go for: - Feel - Why am I dancing? - The secret of happiness - Love is the law But I think this album might...

I don't get how you can put Luna park, the theatre and dreaming of the queen as fillers, but that's the fun of having different tastes with the same band. As Chris said Twentieth century is a filler while for me it's one of my favorite song.

Re: Pet Shop Boys - 5 UNRELEASED tracks from the Fundamental era (Superchumbo, Warren, demos, etc)

As somene posed on that youtube video, the Luna Park mix is not an unofficial leak..in fact, it has even an "official" video made around it!!, and it´s on youtube since 10 years ago, with very few views. The rare thing is that it remained out of the radar for almost everybody here!! https...

Luna Park while its lyrical subject is to the point the song lacks speed and edge to match the lyrics.
Luna park music match perfectly and beautifuly his title and the lyrics, especially at some moment.

Re: Pet Shop Boys - 5 UNRELEASED tracks from the Fundamental era (Superchumbo, Warren, demos, etc)

Luna park is one of their finest tunes in the tradition of the Theatre and Dreaming of the Queen. And what a title - interestingly Bret Easton Ellis published a novel of the same name around that time! I agree, Luna park is one of their most fantastic ballad for me. The superchumbo mix is strange f...

Re: New single „Dancing star“ (digital April 3rd / CD May 3rd)

I know we havent heard the whole song, but listening to what I believe is the chorus..... as some have said its pretty much domino dancing, you can even sing "watch them all fall down" in the place you imagine it would be. its so close I am surprised Neil and Chris didnt alter the chord p...

Re: New single „Dancing star“ (digital April 3rd / CD May 3rd)

I'm not going to listen to this sample, so my question is - what about the chorus? Is it really that weak? Is there any chorus at all? Everyone except nickname seems to love it, so I'm confused :P Do you remember the conversation between Neil and the backing vocals, like they were screaming to Neil...

Re: New album Nonetheless

I like the new t shirt, maybe easier to wear than the super one. Looks like they sell new t shirts at nearly every post these days.

Re: New single „Dancing star“ (digital April 3rd / CD May 3rd)

Loving the sound of this. Given that we know that there are 3 uptempo tracks on this album this sounds like the second one, I wonder what the third will be. My bet is on The schlager hit parade or Bullet for narcissus. For the singles, it makes me think about fundamental, only one ballad, Numb, as ...
