No, it's not the end of story, you silly boy. This is a discussion, you see, and discussions, between intelligent people at least, end when people run out of things to say, not when somebody decides to say "end of story". And hadn't you already said that about forty messages ago? Why are you then continuing the discussion – especially when your way of continuing the discussion is to try to end it with your each post? The mind boggles.

Why is it so hard to understand and accept, that some people don't like Kylie? "People LOVE Kylie", you scream. The fact is, that – as with any pop star – some people love Kylie and some hate Kylie, but most of the population couldn't care less either way about the little pop pixie. A considerable large percentage of the population in Western world won't even know who she is. She's not above criticism, you know. Neither is anybody else.
yawn. And whats your excuse ?

You're still here? I thought you had ended the discussion.

hmmmmm, she's hardly "bland"....
Yes, she has jumped on any bandwagon goin by on a ten-mile radius – and despite that, most of the songs in your list mean nothing to anyone outside the inner circle of her fan club.

if they don't mean anything to you, then erm....why are you discussing Kylie in this thread ??? The Kylie fans in this thread know what I am talking about, sorry if you feel left out all of a sudden. You make me laugh

There are more Kylie "lovers" than haters in this thread, and if you think you are more intellectual than anyone else in this thread, then you are a little "ignorant". Silly boy my ass....

Gosh, I'd never!

But you're right, I have said what I had to say about Kylie, so I'll exit this thread and move on to new pastures. Byeee...

Yeah, how would YOU know what they are called? Too busy being you all the time...

Oh hang on, the song I saw them do on Saturday night gave me a clue - now, what was it called? We're The Pet Shop Boys - oh, that was it!

Locomotion ? - shit, that was 1987 when crappy songs and big hair ruled the charts

The trouble with you is that you've used the "Kylie sells records so she must be doing something right" argument every single time (OK, except when you can't bear to hear any critisism of the self-styled Princess Botox, and kept screaming "end of discussion!" every time), as if that means anything!

So success equals talent does it?

So that means Cliff Richard is the greatest most talented artist in the history of the British singles charts does it?

And as for 1987, erm I think that Pet Bob Gang appeared to be doing OK back then, no? And without wearing Kylie's poodle wigs either!

I know I promised to stay away from this thread, but I have to answer this one.

Oh c'mon Shopper, don't be ridiculous. Pet Shop Boys even isn't that succesful anymore. Westlife is more succesful than PSB. All the Pop Idol puppets are more succesful than PSB. Norah Jones is more succesful than PSB. Dido is more succesful than PSB. Beyonce is more succesful than PSB. The Darkness are more succesful than PSB. Limp Bizkit is more succesful than PSB.

So they are all more talented than PSB, right?

Shopper · #87 Post by **Shopper** » Thu 11 Mar 2004, 12:37 pm

Well lets not look at their other's recent 1 off hits and compare it to PSB's entire body of work since 1986. PSB has been in the business since 1986, had 30+ top 40 hits..their last hit being Miracle which was Top 10 and by 'Success' I meant chart success.

Beyonce has had 1 album, Dido and Norah 2 each and Westlife...well thats an anamoly I can never explain, like the mystery spot in California

It looks like he will go in higher than Kylie (well, that's not difficult - she's a midget after all ), probably at No.4, which will be his best singles chart position since Outside.

Its easy to "sell out" of something if the store dont stock that many copies in the first place!

Shopper · #90 Post by **Shopper** » Mon 15 Mar 2004, 1:54 pm

infact georgie is one place below kylie in the singles charts at week 2

oh well...
