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.
I think I might have hit on the meaning behind this song. Neil's quote right at the end of the Radio2 broadcast gave me the clue - As the wind dies down at the end he says "That's the wind in the desert".
This song is about the occupation of Iraq and the scenes of death, destruction and...

I don't know. I don't think it's about Iraq. it's a biblical theme... about living your life out there, in the middle of it all, taking risks, and going for the prize etc etc. neil's desert comment might just be because it's a biblical story. but I guess like any of his songs, there could be...
I remember when I first heard Technique, (before the lead singer left and they changed thier name to Client) They really reminded me of PSB, Hague production and all.
The first Dubstar album was good too in a PSB kind of way.
It's not on the usual site. Go down the Dock road. Ask a passer by. Ask them where is the Summer Pops and they'll tell you. It's just outside the town centre. Fifteen-twenty minute walk.

The Pet Shop Boys have come ahead in 2006 with a new CD that shows the reason they had such a great past. Fundamental is one of those releases that could very well prove to be fundamental in recreating the Pet Shop Boys of old.
To say that I was surprised at the intensity of Fundamental would be...
Pet Shop Boys released 36 proper UK singles now; 35 of them are on PopArt, the other one being Was It Worth It. How does the second string of 18 singles compare to the first 18 singles ?

Pah... the single version of Domino Dancing is barely better than the ultra super secret rare track of Neil farting in the bath.
Can You Forgive Her? is totally sublime, otherworldly pop perfection with spy-movie cool and gloriously perceptive lyrics. It's like an intriguing mystery you can never...
I know we've probably all seen the US tour dates post on the PSB website. How confident should we be that those dates won't change? I'm going to be making travel plans around several dates and am worried that changes to the dates will happen. What do you think?
Last post
I've seen PSB all three times they have come throught Detroit from 1991-2002 and they've never cancelled or changed a date even though Detroit is probably a semi-marginal market for them. I would say that your plans are probably fairly secure.

Does anyone know if ' The end of the world ' from Behaviour was ever remixed ?
Its one of my favourite tracks from the album but from the very first listening I wish it had had a much more beefy mix.
Can anyone help ??
Cheers,

I love the way Nervously segues into The end of the world. It's seen by many people as one of the weaker tracks on Behaviour which just shows what a superb album it is.

why the hell aren't there more mixes on the maxi CD, does the inclusion of Umyx bring the 20 minute rule into play
It was on the New Order Jetstream maxi and that was about 35 mins, so no. A 3 track maxi (IMO) should have 2 b-sides on them, not 2 remixes.
I'm confused about this U-Myx thing. Is it just a grouping of samples, a computer application, or both? If it's a computer program...does it work with Macintosh?
It would seem very odd that the PSB would release something that was platform dependent on Windows. They are Mac users and massive Apple...

By the way whats up with you lot, no one except me selected ' Young Offender ' the standout track from ' Very ' which was crying to be a single ( another missed opportunity ) , when the guys played this in The Hague in ' 99 the crowd went crazy !!

The new video for "Minimal" has been added to the playlists of two UK video channels: The Box (Sky Digital channel 449) and The Hits ( Sky Digital channel 458 and Freeview channel 18 ). The single has just been A-listed by BBC Radio 2.

I don't see how Fundamentalism is "easier to digest" than Fundamental, but other than that it's a pretty good review.

I'm creating a compilation of the "main" 12 inch mixes of each PSB single release, excluding the Bobby O releases and keeping to one mix per single.
With the earlier releases it's a bit easier as there's generally just one obvious extended mix, but once you get to 'Very' and beyond it becomes more...

The 8:28 version from this US 12" is maybe the definitive version, a masterpiece, but talking about proper extendeds, the original choice by pjhewlett is the right move...
Apparently Tom Stephan did a remix of Minimal as well. It's supposed to be released 'soon'.
No clue if it's going to be released by the boys or maybe ends up on Stephan's own label, if it's going to be widely available or another limited release like Sexy Northerner.
Personally I can't wait to...

According to some sources of Popjustice, EMI will choose one song between three tracks of Fundamental for being third single. These ones are (in no particular order):

If they don't release Fugitive as a single they are officially f***.

I had a rather fat, tattooed guy beside me who shouted, just before the last number,

Does anyone else think they should've cut out the guitars (or even put them in earlier?) and kept in the strings bit instead? :o That's my favourite bit!
The new video is on the new official site! Great video I have to say. I am (am I the only one?) not really that taken by the song (I mean, it's a good track but it doesn't really do something for me), but the video suits the song great I think.
