Re: Track-by-Track: From Please to Nonetheless

The 12 inch single is superb, and it has one of my all time favourite B-Sides "Was That What It Was?".

The promo video was cool too.

Re: Track-by-Track: From Please to Nonetheless

Two Divided By Zero is a great opening track for the album, it is a perfect choice for me.

Re: No headwear on Chris

I wonder how long Chris was in surgery having the cap removed :lol:

One other thought, if they decide to give up music they could carve out a career as snooker referees :lol:

Re: This thread is to talk about the b-sides of Loneliness

"Through You" is one of their finest B Sides, it also reminds me of "Decide", both are fabulous, "Party In The Blitz" is ok, nothing really special, I always feel with the Pet Shop Boys, good b sides on singles usually means an excellent album.

Re: Oversexualized video

liking the new single and the fabulous B side "Through You" as for the promo video, it is utter crap, one of the worst music video's I have ever seen.

Re: Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live At The Royal Arena Copenhagen

It seems that sound is a major issue with the concert film, comments all over the palce on the internet about how poor the sound was, so it can't be down to Cinema sound systems, which is a worry, especially if it is released on Blu-Ray/DVD, hopefully they can do something about the sound maybe?

Re: 10 years of Electric

The album I dislike most, hated it from day one, lots of different ideas cobbled together, lacks cohesion, it also features some of their worst ever tracks, "Bolshy" and "Shouting In The Evening", I did like Love is a bourgeois construct though.

Not an album I play.

Re: Most overrated PSB song

Judging by the singles released it would have to be "Vocal", although I do like the recent live version.

Re: Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live At The Royal Arena Copenhagen

What has happened re Blu-Ray or DVD release??

Surely not just a theatre showing of the film??

Re: Lost

:D The Lost Room is excellent, I Will Fall is ok, Skeletons In The Closet, sounds like they started with this before re-working it into Twenty Something, it's ok, Kaputnik is appealing as Groovy and Pazzo!, nothing more to be said on that, then Living In The Past, awesome track, really beautiful.
