Look, it's only one word - how hard can it be? Let's all brainstorm this thread.

Tempus fugit. We are now in the tenth year of the fourth Pet Shop Boys decade. That, of course, got me thinking. It doesn't take much. What were my highlights since 2010? Restricting myself to the quality control guarantee of 10 tracks, I cannot find a place for marvellous moments such as Axis,...

Following on from discussion in the new EP release; time for a poll...

By all means disagree with his sentiments but do not state that he shouldn’t be political or anything else for that matter. Produce your own art...

Surrounded by old tapes, DATs, CDs etc for a forthcoming reissues project. It's always interesting to see what forgotten gems turn up! Back to songwriting next week. Neil x

So, what do u think is waiting us? A Singles boxset? Further Listenings for Nightlife-Elysium albums?

satire

the use of humour, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.

I wanted to compile a playlist of Pet Shop Boys satirical songs, to put the new EP into the context of the...

Don't know if these actually exist or just a balls up... BUT 29 units of one of the most sought after PSB collectables just became available at the original £500 on VF.

They go for upwards of £1k a piece on eBay.
