could be because the produced and co-wrote the track, therefore a lot more involvement than No Regrets
well the surely why not
PSB & Alcazar - Love Life etc...

Also isn't there some despite as to who wrote She's Madonna as some guy think surname Hamilton claimed he and Robbie wrote it together years ago.

And if it truly is PSB & Robbie both should get a b-side each IMO

because the same criteris does not apply - PSB neither produced nor wrote Love Life, obviously you could argue that Results should be credited to Liza Minnelli and PSB but she's a different sort of artist. Obviously as both Pets and Robbie are signed to EMI there may be a marketing incentive behind it as well

PSB DID write Love Life as it was originally called Can I Be The One? from I think the Nightlife sessions.

Oh well

p.s alos Dusty's Nothing Has Been Proved should techincally be PSB & Dusty.

oops re: the Love Life writing credit, I did amend it but obviously didn't resubmit it correctly, I meant to write didn't perform on the track. There is no 'technically' about any of this, it is an artisitic choice. Following that logic should New York city boy be credited to Pet Shop boys and David Morales

It's just a marketing tool, like that "Peter Rauhofer + Pet Shop Boys = The Collaboration" thing, even if Chris Lowe wasn't involved in the project.

True it just strikes me as odd really with regards to what has been said about the tracks history.

Agreed.
