Please take extreme care on emails from administration @ petshopboys-forum .com !!!!!!!!!!!
In the last days I recognise some emails about Tickets for PSB@ROH which I THINK could be a money trap. After we have to hold this email open for user requests and alerts via the contact link (at the...
I know yesterday (13th March) was the first time a new PSB track had been played in ages, but (as per the long standing forum rules) in future all public requests for copies of any new track, PSB or otherwise, will be deleted and/or threads containing requests closed. We will officially...

Thank you for the link leesmapman. I was already aware of them and found the last one does not include the first song they played (the Blur song Girls and Boys (PSB Remix)). For some reason it has been omitted from the youtube recording hence why I asked if anyone has their own recording.
After a series of themed projects, surely it's time for an "album of fab pop songs, like ten Kylie Minogue singles” (to use Neils words... was the original intention for Behaviour)
I'm not saying recent albums havent had awsome singles and tracks... but they generally have had either gloomy,...

Knowing that they would do something different, maybe an electro country music album next?
Heard it @ 5.25pm...turned over to Radio 2 straight after and they were playing it!!!
Good promotion from Capital!!! :D

If I have to listen to ANOTHER Jamiroquai song :roll:
They do love him, don't they?
It's a good test of your PSB loyalty - I genuinely want to hear them on Capital for the first time in a decade and think it's very funny that it's taken a song about minimalism to get them there (I doubt Brian...
TV2 Zulu (Danish channel) will show 1½ hours of highlights from the 2006 Zulu Rocks concert in Copenhagen. PSB will surely be among the highlights. After the highlights they will show the Pet Shop Boys - a life in pop documentary.

This is an mp3 but i thought they showed it on TV???
Does this work? Jump to 39 minutes .
I guess not. It is rerun tomorrow on TV2 Zulu maybe someone will record it and make it available here.
I didn't like Robbie's Jealousy either. I still don't. and I've gotten used to Rufus' CiH now and quite like it. but I still think Neil's versions of both songs are far, far superior.
Son shoots record boss by mistake
The owner of a record label was seriously hurt when she was accidentally shot in the neck by her son with an air rifle.
Jill Sinclair, who set up ZTT Records with her husband Trevor Horn, was shot in the garden of their home near Henley, Oxfordshire, on Sunday...

Wow, her son must feel terrible. :(
Not sure how you accidentally shoot someone with a gun though. :?
So today, as I stared into space during a class, I thought of something. You guys are probably going to attack me becasue I looked SO deeply into the album (which I know other people have been scolded for), but try to keep an open mind.
So, as stated before, Fundamental is focused more on current...

oh really? for the FIRST time? hmm... I find myself obscenely and exceedingly interested in the ins and outs of this little snippet. ;) :P
Which is the better lead single: Minimal or I'm with stupid?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Last post
Look at the album sales for the PSB's last couple of albums 'post' first single - virtually nill.
What is wrong with returning with a BIG BANG. Rather that, than a 'slow burner' - it's not as much fun.
Could it be that EMI's tactic is to have an even bigger bang from the second single. Although...
Things in common between "Numb" and the song "There You'll Be" of Faith Hill (Pearl Harbour soundtrack). Both songs have been written by Diane Warren, the orchestal director is Nick Ingman and the producer is Trevor Horn.
If the second song had success, why not Numb?. Or do you think "There...
Last post
All of Warren's big hits have an "uplifting" quality to them - hence the term "power ballads". Numb isn't really a power ballad at all - there's nothing uplifting about it. It's not a hit record, period.
Compared to the likes of If I Could Turn Back Time it's not, but just because it's not the...

Of those songs, I can only see Kasabian definitely charting above Minimal. Madonna might, although with...
Went back to my local independent CD store today and got a nice surprise!
Rhino had provided a promotion copy of Fundamental and it was set up on a CD post so anyone who wanted to could sit down to hear the whole thing!!! They even provided a promo note saying what a great recording it is!Thank...

I was very happy to see in in Target in Fort Worth, Texas. I took a picture.
It's the real version of Diane Warren. It's a good ballad, and I think that PSB will give us another great song. Just a question: I hope that PSB version will be longer than this demo that is only 2 minutes and 7 seconds! :D
Last post
The PSB version is longer than 5 minutes.
Is your copy of Fundamental different to the rest of us then? :roll:
However, while we've all had lots to complain about with regards to the punditry during the World Cup, there was one area where the BBC did surprisingly well - the "we're out" montage at the end of the England game. With the perfectly-chosen Pet Shop Boys song Numb, it was a classy summing up of...

You aren't Diane Warren, her parrot or one of her agents, are you? :wink:
No, but I did stumble across this:

I am trying to get tickets for PSB @ "The Wiltern LG" in L.A. on the 8th or 9th but PSB are not even on their up coming list. I am going to be flying down from Canada so this is already going to be a really expensive trip. The only tickets I can find on sale are for about $150 and they are for the...

I'm also going to the L.A. shows and have'nt seen them yet for sale, I am hoping they have a presale just like the San Francisco shows.
Hey, I can't find this on here, did Fundamental chart at all in the US last week?
Thanks.

Actually, I was surprised to see that you can vote for "I'm With Stupid" on the Logo channel website. It's one of the videos that you can choose for the Click List program. (for those of you overseas, Logo is the US gay and lesbian channel, www.logoonline.com). Better than no promotion at all. Only...
With self-styled Svengalis and a complacent public threatening to make pop a four-letter word, it's up to defenders of the faith such as this dynamic duo to give the genre its dignity back. How many other acts could veer from the percolating wit of...
I'd go for 'Home and Dry' acoustic version. Maybe some live songs. What do you think?
Last post
There is no 7" mix of Fugitive, only an original demo.
I find this so strange. Then why is the mix on Fundamentalism the *extended* Richard X version? There can only be an *extended* Richard X version if there's an *original* Richard X version, right?
So last night was the first of 6 nights Madonna is performing here in New York City's Madison Square Garden arena for her "Confessions World Tour" and I'm happy to say that when "Sorry" starts, its the PSB Maxi version with Neil's voice as loud as ever singing "I'm sorry....so sorry....I'm...
Last post
So does the PSB Maxi Mix go into the regular album version?
Fundamental was officially released stateside last Tuesday. Is the new Billboard Chart released today?
Anyone know how its going there?
I predict somewhere between 70-90.

Chris by comparison looks skinnier than ever. This was backstage after the gig:
For me, 20 years on, Love Comes Quickly still hasn't been beaten. It's amazing how beautiful and moving that song is, considering it's lyrics are quite cliche by PSB standards. A masterpiece.

Excuses... really does it for me. Neil's stiff upper lip is so heart-breaking:
"Imagine my surprise.."
"I felt I should apologise for what I hadn't heard"
"I felt like such a fool for crying"

Does the title of this magazine refer to Greenwich Village rather than a 'gay village'?
And how are the Pet Shop Boys feeling this afternoon? Pleased to be warming up for Shayne Ward? You bet. Neil Tennant certainly knows his way around a costume department and is wearing a lovely gold ensemble. Perhaps he wanted to go into the Big Brother house and have a pint of water thrown...

Last time they played here in Bangkok in 2002 they played at the Impact Arena which holds 10,000 people. They got 9000 ticket sales and the remaining 1000 were made up of VIPs / freeloaders or competition winners.

pfffft. 2 and a half hours. That's nothing. One of the joys of living in the worlds most isolated capital cities i suppose.
One of the most important things (to me) is if they can actually get Radio 1 to play the new single (and Little Britain will help a hell of a lot if they're in the video) but apart from that I think they should go down the same route as Madonna did before her latest and single were released.

Deciding against spending the ludicrously inflated sum of €175 to set up a camp and endure the lachrymose charms of the late Irish summer, I opted to visit Liverpool, the real capital of Ireland, to take in the latest leg of the dynamic duo's promotional tour of Europe. Though they're making a rare...

Chris has sent a "pet text" and a picture of Neil in Liverpool to the official site. He says "you were a fantastic audience". Aah!
Whateve people say, this chart got the chart position of Fundamental and I'm with stupid right.
The song is going to improve its position in the next weeks. Let's see what happens.

Liverpool gig had same set list as Sweden but replaced Before with Numb (rather topically because of previous night's airing on BBC1 over scenes of England's world cup defeat). That set list ignored Bilingual and Nightlife.

That wasn't a proper PSB gig though, it was a festival appearance. I don't care who's playing, I ain't standing in no muddy field for anyone.
