Three of these "unreleased" tracks were previously made available briefly for download from the official website a few years ago.

Re: Very album pics (in particular Chris' head)
I think you’d have been OK. It probably would have been the single version on the jukebox.Straight_Talker wrote: ↑Sat 23 Mar 2024, 11:26 amIt was quite annoying back in the day as I’d be wanting to stick “Go West” on the jukebox in my local pub but never did after I realised there would be 4 or 5 mins of silence before the next track..!

Re: Track-by-Track: From Please to Nonetheless
I liked the album version of 'Suburbia' until I first heard the single version, after which it was never the same again and sounded rather pedestrian, although all the street battle samples from the Emulator's 'Armageddon' disk were already in place. Chris's bassline on the album version was inspire...

Re: Track-by-Track: From Please to Nonetheless
Did it though? ‘Non-Stop Ecstatic Dancing’ and ‘Love and Dancing’ set the precedent. Granted, Soft Cell were defunct and the Human League weren’t what they were by 1986.

Re: New single „Dancing star“ (digital April 3rd / CD May 3rd)
Based on the snippet it sounds fantastically, joyously dated. I wonder if this means that they’ve given up on their long-stated notion of writing songs then presenting them using a contemporary dance music framework?

Re: Track-by-Track: From Please to Nonetheless
I was delighted when quite out of the blue 'West End girls' unexpectedly gave up more of its secrets about three years ago. We finally learned just what those spoken words on the street in the intro are: http://www.muzines.co.uk/blog/sound-diving-1-west-end-girls/43 We also learned that as well as p...

Re: Next Single
I am sure there will be at least one new song as a B-side on the next single.

Re: Your Instant Classics
I'm going to steer clear of the big singles even though most of them were instant classics for me, because plenty has already been written about them. Later tonight - I think the first time I heard this delightful ballad may well have been a clip of the live Whistle Test performance during the 1988 ...

Re: PSB as a group - timeline
I’m really interested in the Ray Roberts period at his Camden 8 studio, because we really know very little about it. They posted a photo of Ray when he sadly passed away a few years ago, but I’ve never seen a photo of that studio or them in it with Ray. I wonder if there are any?
