Re: New single „Dancing star“ (digital April 3rd / CD May 3rd)

I ordered the Loneliness cd single from Amazon over a month ago and I am still waiting for it. So I just ordered the Dancing Star and Loneliness cd singles from the official store (UK I think) and hopefully I'll get them.

The tracklisting for the Dancing Star single looks very promising!

Re: Pet Shop Boys in today’s Guardian

Speaking of Olly, he is in an episode of the Jake Shears podcast Quuer The Music, and he says some nice things about It's A Sin (around 22:15):

Re: TR/ST featuring Jake Shears - Being Boring

Love it! It should get an upbeat extended remix. I'd never heard of Tr/St before. I'll have to check out his other stuff.

All of Us Strangers

I saw Andrew Haigh's new film All of Us Strangers today and thought it was incredibly good. A very powerful film. It features PSB's Always On My Mind in one of the best scenes. The film also uses a bit of I Want A Dog is another scene. Highly recommend it.

Re: Annually 2024 is ready for pre-order!

I suspect most of it will be leaked or announced before the postman delivers ... Is there an unreleased PSB song called The Postman, He Delivers" or something like that? That would be a good song to include on an Annually CD. Lyrics from 2/0 No, look here: http://www.geowayne.com/newDesign/lis...

Re: Annually 2024 is ready for pre-order!

This will be worth getting with all its in-depth info on the new album and tantalising titbits of unreleased songs. Shame there is no CD but it's understandable given there will be three singles from the album most likely. I fully expect Annually 2025 to come with a CD though. I suspect most of it ...

Re: Neil guests on debut CASISDEAD album

Really love this track! I think the contrast in singing styles works very well. I look forward to reading more about it from Neil, perhaps seven months from now in the next issue of Annually lol.

Re: Celebrating Very Relentless - New Relentless release

I got the vinyl in New York today, sent via UPS by the official store. It was well packaged and there was no damage on the record sleeve. Now waiting for the other items that were delayed.

I really enjoyed listening to the remastered songs on YouTube. The visualizers work well. I can't seem to find it on the US iTunes store. Seems strange.
