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.
Was it promised? I thought we'd just been given a heads-up from Redman. Considering he won't be involved going forward, it was generous of him to give us this info anyway really.
Won't be a very good site then.
Is a good idea to have someone that enjoys the subject of the website they are...
Apologies if its been mentioned before (I did check but couldnt find anything) but I would suggest watching the Culture show on BBC2 at 20:10 tonight...

Musicaly...whatever. (Have they ever played Heart live? If not, I hope they won't try it now! :wink: )
The voices, the tempo in the interviews, they sound like in the eighties. Mental they are not getting old, or they do it purposely. Most people getting slower as they nearing fifty.
What do others think?
Last post
there is nothing wrong with the PSB, its just that todays culture is so youth obsessed in relation to music that if you are past 17 you are considered pretty much over and done with.
Yeah! I feel SO old!!! :cry:

Has anyone in London already been able to take a peek at the Fundamental review in NME? I'm a bit anxious to know what they wrote about it.
Last post
i can remember in the mid-eighties when the nme had great writers like paolo hewitt and sean o'hagan, and championed hip hop when the rest of the mainstream music press gave it a very wide berth. and even as late as 'very' they were still pro-psb. now though it just seems a pale imitation of it's...
A second Tower of London date has been added and will go on sale tomorrow. The date is June 29th (the day after the first one). Ticket details will be here tomorrow.
Things are going well for Neil & Chris!
Last post
It would be good if we could get up and dance (just like the Savoy shows) but I'm guessing it won't be allowed for something like the 'Tower'. Anyway after paying £65 for a second time and if I have a restricted view I hope the organisers are prepared for some 'SERIOUS' complaints.
Do you think they'll go live again like the Release tour with couple of guitarists and a percussionist ? I personally would like to see Chris playing live again but i'm afraid with Fundamental being more electropop, they might do another "Nightlife" ?
Last post
did he play live on the somewhere shows?
he just like he wasnt playing live on the DVD !
Yep. He's using arpeggiator on many tracks, so seemingly there's not much going on at the keyboard.

I'm with stupid is actually #25 in the Official UK Top 40. Hit40UK - other than the top 10 - is based partly on airplay, hence why it's slightly lower.

While on my Potemkin vacation I bought loads of DVDs. One of them was Dusty Springfield - Full circle (1994) .
It features celebrity tributes and our very own Neil is among those.

Probably just a coincidence but I...

Jennifer Saunders hands Dusty a piece of paper and says: "because we're very big fans... could you ask the Pet Shop Boys to sign it for us?" :mrgreen:

Hi there,
I will go to London, does anyone have a list of MUST do's for a HUGE PSB FAN like me in London!
Yes, i will buy Fundamental/ism.
thx, Silvi

It is well known fact that you have everything or even more. But, still, let others enjoy their time in London. Me owning this and that is out of the question. There's nothing much more than what you wouldn't see in your local record shop's used department. I think I will give Soho a miss next time...
I don't know how much can help the promotion of Radio 2 this week (the best thing is some audience can hear songs like Integral, TSAGS, Minimal or Numb), the concert, the documentary, etc.
Do you think it'll call the attention of some of the old...

I think they should have gatecrashed the Lottery draw.
As I can read, there already a lot of people who own Fundamental/ism. What about the booklet? Do you like it? I work as graphic designer and have to say the artwork is fabulous for me.

Think they will use a diffenrent color. For example a pen with "goldcoloured" ink
The CD maxi has the same tracklisting as the European version but it looks like it was manufactured here compared to all other recent PSB releases that have been UK/EU imports.

Wow. congrats Neil and Chris if you reading... I have a feeling one of you does!
No 23 without airplay is good indeed. I would be happy if it is still in the top 50 next week but I doubt it.
I am sure Before/Somewhere made the Top 40 too (post Very releases).... Can someone confirm?
Wondering is Fundamentalism suppose to be release this thuesday, with Fundamental, in canada?

Get the Japanese 2 CD Fundamentalism from HMV.CO.JP and guess that will safe the trouble. Futhermore it's the only format that has 2 additional tracks. Got mine already
I love the answer by Chris to this..
You have a theory that bands have an “imperial phase” when you effortlessly do everything right. Do you still believe it exists?
Neil: Yes, our imperial phase was from It’s A Sin through to Heart.
Chris: It means you can do what you like, usually followed by...
While the album version of Minimal sounds absolutely great, the remix is fabulous ! The intro and the fade in drum makes it an even better track than the regular single....
any thoughts ?
Last post
Minimal by Neil and Chris is ok and is a great track as it is. The Lobe remix is more Electro/Trance and stands on its own merits.
Tiga's mix of Minimal sounds more Drum and Base, so you choose it's up to you.
Not every one will like the same tracks ..
Having desperately avoided leaked copies of this album from peer to peers I'm absolutley delighted that Monday will be the first time I've heard the album.
The last two album releases I picked up in advance on CD promos, but I've steered well clear of those too this year. Monday is going to be a...

Due to a sad occasion, I am in Germany this weekend. But making the most of this trip, I have just been shopping with my mum and she bought herself Fundamental (she likes the ballads you see), and I have just heard the whole thing in one go :-) Some instant likes, some maybes, it will take a few...
I've only heard it so far on the website player. I'm sooooooooo excited about Monday.
It sounds f****** amazing, sonically their best in aeons. The melodies and lyrics sound so good too. I was surprised by how ace all the songs are, even though some have had a luke warm response on here. 'Twentieth...

I must say that I regret downloading mp3's of all tracks from the album... But it's so hard to resist when people here are talking about their favourite new songs on this forum. Minimal this and Integral that... I had to hear them too! :)
Now it's not that exciting to wait for the real thing. But...
I was in the record shop today. And to my suprise the album was already on sale!! I bought it of course! It's a fantastic album! The FRS only sell the 2-track cd-single of I'm with stupid, but selling the album 3 days before the official release is great!

Very Pet Shop Boys
Tue May 23, Nambucca, 596 Holloway Rd, London , N7 6LB
Yep, a Pet Shops-themed night of synth pop pleasures celebratin' the recent 'Fundamental' album and dropping the best PSB tunes 'as well as their influences, collaborators, peers and followers.'
Just saw this blog...Not sure if it is true. Seems that Paris Hilton wants the Pet Shop Boys to remix some of the songs on her Debut Album, Screwed. However they have yet to respond. :lol:

I dont underestimate her singing abilites.I remember how surpised I was by brittney murphy and paul oakenfold's song "faster kill pussycat".bought it off I-tunes.
I really hope so! It will definately help the album because I have an idea that Rhino's publicity for the album will be the same as the title of their next single...."Minimal".

man them doing howard would be awesome. but you know,when he has guests on he really doesnt care about, he treats them pretty bad.
I wish they could get a rolling stone cover.or at least a good review in it, they usually have been very kind to their CD's.
i bought a couple years and years ago cause i had never had them on CD before - only cassette so it was a binus to get the 2nd CD and the booklet etc.
anyway

Bilingual-Further Listening was not available in the US because it was the only of the set released on a Warner label originally, while all the others were EMI items, and EMI handled the reissues in America. If you bought a copy in the US, it is an import, and much more difficult to come by than...
I just got an email from my friends at WEA dist. in the US that say Fundamentalism (bonus CD version) will be limited to 15,000! Hope that is enough!!! Maybe we need to show Rhino that they should have higher hopes for this excellent CD, even if it is a month later...!
Last post
I doubt there will be a single - the US singles market is all but dead. In fact there isnt even a proper music store for miles around me. You need to go to an electronics or Dept store to buy CDs and they'll only stock the popular stuff. I long ago gave up and usually buy CDs online now.

f***, it's here too, but I won't have any money until Monday :evil:
...fade-outs at the end of the songs.
On all the other PSB´s full lenght albums, at least one song ends with a fade-out; not this time. Even on Fundamentalism :mrgreen:
How much did you get your tickets for the first date for? I wanted to go but they`d sold out time I`d made up my mind to go, so now I`m gonna make sure I get along to the second date no matter what I`ll run up to the ticket shop with my pennies tomorrow lol.

I managed to get block B 'Row A' this time!! Although when I couldn't get through online this morning, the guy on the phone said the tickets are being held and would not go on sale in the next 24 hours !!? Good thing I checked online again.
It’s a bit presumptuous to post an album review here, especially so close to the release date and with so many people already having heard the thing. I held out until I got an actual copy of Fundamental , because so many early reviews seemed to be missing the bigger picture. An album is about...

"The Sodom And Gomorrah Show" getting some airplay here in sweden (I'm with stupid is still A-listed) and I must say it is one of the greatest psb song I've heard in ages.

I have just heard S&G Show on the radio!!! the guy talking went something like : "the old good PSB are back"
just when you think fundamental cant get anymore beautiful.this is really romantic sounding.
love the little middle "tell me where I stand section" where he sings the melody up and down and the horn follows suit.
and that really nice chord modulation they are so good at near the end.
Last post
I can definitely see the Pink Floyd references in this. The horns at the beginning and even the way Neil sings sound just like something from "The wall" or "The final cut". This songs deserves much more a single release than Numb...
I've seen quite a few of these promos on ebay, but I thought the numbers were very limited. They keep popping up and look a bit sus, anybody got more info
