Re: Happy people

COVID-19 UPDATE!

"Happy people" is more relevant as ever. At least the chorus is, and that's the only part people listen to. So why not release it as a single - accompanied by a video?

Re: How many Tennant/Lowe-tracks?

Well, according to Geowayne, "Later tonight" is credited Tennant/Lowe.

Re: How many Tennant/Lowe-tracks?

Do you count What have I done to deserve this? as a pure Tennant/Lowe track, since it has got other writers too? "Credited or co-credited to Tennant/Lowe". "What have I done to deserve this?" is co-credited to Tennant/Lowe. So yes, I count that song and other tracks where Tennan...

No, the Geowayne-list also includes songs written by others, such as cover songs.

How many Tennant/Lowe-tracks?

===NERD ALERT!=== Does anyone have an excact number of how many unique tracks are released credited or co-credited to Tennant/Lowe (or Lowe/Tennant), performed by any artist (including PSB themselves, of course)? I know that there's a list on Geowayne.com called "PSB Song Chronology" with ...

Re: "Rating Project" poll on most recent PSB tracks ends soon

Oh, I thought it was biweekly. I got to hurry, then.


EDIT: Now I've heard them through once more, and I've casted my votes. Thanks for waiting:)

(I'm not particulary impressed by these songs. I find only "Angelig thug" to be (slighty) above PSB-average. The rest of them are below.)

Re: PSB Summer Songs

Four years have passed since I made the list in the opening post. PSB have, in my opinion, released two obvious summer songs since 2016. Those are:

- An open mind
- Happy people

Re: Which song Pet Shop Boys could cover in the future?

It should be something completely unexpected and un-PSB-esque (like they did in 2013 with "The last to die" by Bruce Springsteen): - Any Pink Floyd-song (f.ex."Money" or "Wish you were here") - Any blackmetal-song (f.ex. "Chainsaw Gutsfuck" by Mayhem or "...
