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.
Preferably in the high street. It's £17.99 in HMV which is a bit much really... :roll:

In January this year a musical spawned from the Pet Shop Boys' lyrics was launched by David Knox and Dean Lotherington.

So what's the go? Is a DVD or Soundtrack going to be released? If so, when?
I was realled bummed I didn't get to see Seriously.... I somehow got very poor in the days before I was going to buy a ticket and it never eventuated. :(
Just three extra songs, I don't understand why they not broadcast the whole concert.

Dear Diana
Thank you for your e-mail regarding 'Pet Shop Boys - Sold on Song' on 27 May.
I note that you were disappointed that we did not broadcast all the tracks recorded. There are no plans to repeat this programme or add the additional tracks. However, please...

OT: The standard of living is not excellent compared to most western countries, that is just an image Sweden like to project. (It used to be true in the 60s-70s) The average monthly income for women in Sweden (most women have to work) is less than USD 2,000. Minus taxes of one third and VAT of 25%...
For the Skien, Norway Show on 15 June ( ), how do you get there from Oslo? Mass Transit like Train? Bus? Do I need to rent a Car? How far is it from Oslo?
Thanks!!!
Last post
Train is probably the easiest public transport. Expect something under 3,5 hours. It's about 200 kilometres from the airport. Or rent a car and take the E6/E18 motorway westbound. Should take about 2,5 hours.
could anybody be kind enough to list me all released interview albums?
P.S.
i remember I've read elsewhere some Baktabak, About.... don't know
Last post
then Baktabak (about ''Actually'') and Private talks (about ''Behaviour'') are definately not official releases; but bootlegs or not - they still contain comments by N & C about their Actually and Behaviour songs, right?
Yes.
And I'm with stupid down to no 4 (after two weeks at no 3).
Great reviews in major Danish papers - Jyllands-Posten and Weekend-avisen - and in leading music paper Gaffa.

Actually, most of the danish reviews I've seen have been mediocre.

Why do they not play stupid anymore??? After one month is it to old???
It premiered on radio in late March, so it's more than two months old actually.
Here’s a translation I made of a PSB interview in the greek magazine “Icons” that comes with the Saturday edition of the “Ethnos” newspaper. As it was translated in Greek and then back to English again it’s most probably not 100% accurate, but it’s worth reading:...

"We've never done the camping thing. Glastonbury? We stayed at Babington House. (People should) book a luxury hotel nearby."

Personally, I would LOVE to attend a Pet Shop Boys Camp. None of that hiking, volleyball or swimming stuff. No. No. Instead, we'd go to Russian history seminars, Italo-Disco T-dances, thighslapping training & " kipping " classes. Then, every night after dinner, Beer for the Chris-o-philes,...
According to this link below Fundamental is NUMBER 13 in the WORLD ALBUM CHART,
selling 89,200.
If this is true, then this is FANTASTIC for the Pet Shop Boys 20 Years+ into their career, in a 'not so friendly pop world.'

Quite interesting. But I would really like to know which countries are actually included in this chart. Don't get me wrong I know it's called WORLD charts but I wouldn't be too sure about the fact that it really includes all the sales from all countries because I'd say that at the point this chart...
According to various clubbing websites PSB will be performing a DJ set at Amnesia Ibiza on 20 August as part of the 'Return to New York' night. That would be pretty cool. Amnesia is one of the best clubs in the world.
Last post
It was certainly there! Do you think that Amnesia maybe got a bit carried away and listed it on their website before anything was properly confirmed? And possibly "someone" read my post on this site and was alerted to the fact?
I've just seen Miracles @ TOTP and laughed out loud at Chris's hairstyle. It was so funny to see him with a lot of hair. But they were showing him briefly so maybe there's few interviews where he has hair like that. I'd like to see those interviews. They must've done loads of it 'cause it was...
Last post
There was only some interviews.
Check out Flamboyant´s video. There they show his long hair more.
Personaly, I found the formatting of 'I'm with stupid' a bit disappointing. No remixes available to buy on CD and too much stuff spread all over the place for downloads.
What would you prefer to see come the release of the boys' biggest hit for 13 years( :!: ) :?:
My preference is thus:

7" is a slap in the face to fans in the 21st century. There should be a two CDs and a DVD, with the latter featuring every single mix available on the promo.
At first I thought people just had a promo or something with it on but it seems more and more people are hearing it, and on the guy (Wayne?) who does the charts' website is the time (4:47). I can't find it on e-mule or any other site, so I don't think it has leaked yet!...

This mix even makes the Basement Jaxx remixes of A red letter day sound good.
I'm baffled by the way Neil sings You're a threat in Integral. I'd expect a sound 'ea' like in 'head' and to my ears it sounds more like "You're a thirst". Is it a local pronunciation or should I change my set of ears?

What would I know, I'm English, Paxman is Scottish, and we Brits also don't do irony. And BBC English is fairly regional, as opposed the 1950s. Just listen to how Paxman pronounces 'yes'.
I'm pretty sure you know how to pronounce every word I could throw at you. I just said you didn't explain...

Do you know, I accidentally got stoned last night (don't ask) and I was listening to 'Fundamental' and I was struck by just how gorgeous the whole thing is.

Wouldn´t it be a great, as a sort of "3rd single from the album but not really", to release Fugitive as a mini-album. It could include a couple of new Richard X songs or as a worst case some remixes of old songs? He did wonders to Bizarre Love Triangle... Some way we just have to get some more RX...
I ordered Fundamental/Fundamentalism from Amazon.com, and it finally landed in SF yesterday. After the long wait, I tried to slide the CD out of the sleeve, but it was stuck. It took me a good twenty minutes to get it out--such torture! Just as I considered cutting the sleeve, it popped out--after...

I got mine yesterday. One fly in the ointment: the jewel case seems even cheaper than normal and was ALREADY broken. Oh well...it's what's inside that counts!
Hit magazine, which comes in Melbourne's Herald Sun (and possibly also in other major newspapers across the country) has a twin-page spread on the boys today... with details of the album, Elton's stag night, upcoming Robbie collaboration, the BBC concert, Madonna, Kylie and so on....

Would be great news if true - as (I think) Rusty pointed out, hopefully Fundamental will do some decent business here, so that touring Aust. will seem worthwhile for PSB. :)

Cool. Was thinking about seeing this anyway. Definitely now.

Some good news! HMV have Fundamental on their chart at #5! At least the city store here in Sydney has it as #5, so I assume this will be the national placing, although the website hasn't been updated yet. I hope this translates to a top10 on the official national chart, but at the very least we're...

As a frequent user of London Euston main line train station, I have been taken aback by one of the (human) male announcers whose voice is very reminiscent of Neil Tennant's. In fact the first time I heard it, I thought it was some stunt and the PSB were 'doing' the PA system that day.

I've always thought celebrity train announcements would be a great idea. Just imagine Tom Baker announcing the 4.15 to Gravesend. I'D buy a ticket.
