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.
My trusty TiVo tells me that Pet Shop Boys are scheduled to appear on Paul's afternoon show at 5pm May 22nd on Channel 4 (UK). Alongside Gloria Hunniford!

Looks like me email may have worked as i emailed Paul O'Grady some weeks ago saying the boys should be on as I'm with stupid is a brilliant single.
UK Radio Play - 15 May '06
"I'm with Stupid" has moved back up the UK radioplay chart from 27 to 12.
Last post
you could argue that the sales for I'm with stupid are more of an achievement considering HAD had far more different tracks spread across the formats
The placing in the charts is even more remarkable since it's the first PSB single released in the "download era". So, since I'm with stupid is nowhere to be seen in the...
“The reason we started working with him again was because of that tATu single, which was proper Trevor. We thought, ‘Oh, he’s doing pop again’: first of all, a pop record; second, a pop record with two Russian lesbians. I said to him, ‘You know, you should only work with homosexuals.’”

Would it be possible, for example, to put all the t.v and radio appearances into 1 topic? PSB are doing several interviews and we might miss the info posted, especially when there are so many topics and posts every day.

I think we need a new thread about this very subject.
There are segments to a lot of PSB songs that sound familiar to old Commodore 64/Amiga tunes. I'm probably way off the mark but surely someone out there notices the simliarity?
Last post
Funny that I was listening to Relentless the other day and some of the sounds hark back to Sega Mega Drive 16 bit days....actually if memory serves me correctly I think Chris had been playing alot of Sonic The Hedgehog at the time (in a interview?)....also the Very videos (as already mentioned)...
elton, the major queen sounds so butch next to neil! :D
superb!

It's a rubbish version. Sounds like it took about 15 mins to knock off. Neil's vocals are bad, and it's very 1998. It's like two queens in karoke at the local Chicago Rock Cafe.
I have one of those. Was trapped there Saturday night sweating in a space the size of two teabags. :(
I dunno, which is why I ask. But I would have thought a second CD-single would have outsold either the DVD or 7". Not that the Boys should be so desperate to boost their chart fortunes, but I wonder how well I'm with stupid coulda done.
8 is about twice as good as I expected, as it is.
Last post
Ofcourse a cd-single with remixes would have increased sales. I pay a lot of money for the promo to get the mixes.
I assume that a lot more people should buy a cd single with 5 remixes for a price at 7.99euro. I would...., especially with the resurrectionist.
Just heard the Pet Shop Boys will be on the album chart show tonight
Also there have been adverts on Radio 2 for a bank holiday club on radio 2 website that will have exclusive streamed content from the recent concert. 8)
Pete Burns / Dead or Alive has been a guilty pleasure of mine for ages. In fact, longer than my fascination with PSB. One viewing of the You spin me .. video had me hooked. I mean, how can you not love an act fronted by ( in MHO ) a skinny Queen who thinks he's singing Grand Opera to a Disco beat ?...
Last post
Did you know that Pete Burns is in prison in the UK at the moment? He broke a restaining order banning him from contacting his ex-boyfriend. The curse of psb strikes once again!
Sorry if this has been covered before (did a search, but couldn't find anything), but how do I get the tracks off the DVD single onto my iPod? Or converted to mp3? In Explorer, there doesn't seem to be any audio files to latch on to.

PSB are scheduled to appear on BBC2's The Culture Show on Saturday May 20th at 20:10.
In this edition, we try decoding the real Leonardo da Vinci - what the film and the book don't tell you about the original Renaissance man. Plus, the Pet Shop Boys discuss the future of pop.

Thanks for the info, but damn. This is right opposite Eurovision - and nothing except the end of the world should interrupt THAT. Perhaps there's a repeat, or with any luck PSB will be on at the same time as Israel. :)
i go to a Nightclub caled 'Big Fellas' and every week they have a tribute band on.
Tonight it was a piss poor Phil collins tribute.
The last time i went there was a George Michael tribute on and to be honest he looked like a fatter David Brent.
So please play here, Pontefract could do with a bit of...

Hi Shaunh7!
We'd be delighted to come and play at "Big fellas". Venues tend to book you if there seems an interest in the band. If you could ring the venue and beg them to put us on, that would be a great help. We'll take it from there if they're interested.
I checked out the website. It looks...
For those of us outside the UK, here's where you can hear where I'm with stupid lands in the UK Top 40. The show begins @ 1600 hrs GMT, so figure your time zone accordingly.
I've read in a Duch musicmagazine (Oor) that Release sold about 800.000 times...
Is this a good salesfigure for the Pet Shop Boys and what about Fundamental? Will it sell more or less than for example Release with his 800.00 copies. Any thoughts...?
Last post
What do you mean with "sells well" for Fundamental? Between 800.000 - 1.000.000 copies? More, less? The hype at the moment is quite big, the promotion for a new PSB studio-album was never bigger as it is now, so personal, I think Fundamental will sell 1.000.000 times and more...
I've just been told Mediamarkt in germany already have the album for sale € 14,99. A bit early if you ask me.

I hope Fundamental(ism) will be out in Japan tomorrow. It is due to be released on Wednesday but often albums are sold are few days early here. Fingers crossed now!
EMI Australia have a 2 minute "making of" video of I'm with stupid available for viewing.
Go to and look for David Walliams near the top right corner. Looks like it plays in Windows Media Player and the EMI Aust website is pretty firefox unfriendly so I'd use IE.

Yeah try Fugitive ! ! ! The Resurrectionist is such a great track...
But Fugitive is timeless.
Come on, let it be single!!! :D
Don't know if this has been reported yet, but I work for a CD retailer in the northeast and was just emailed the new release catalog from WEA (Warner Bros) that states Fundamental and Fundamentalism are streeting in the USA on Rhino Records either June 20 or 27! It will list for 18.98...

Does this mean that the american release of Fundamentalism will include the original version of "Fugitive" and "In Private"?
Nope! It's an exact copy of the EU release - out courtesy of Rhino for U S A

Come on everyone, this is a final plea for one last push to make 'I'm with stupid' a top 10 UK hit.
Go out and buy another copy (or 3) of the single, just the £1.99 format will do. You can always sell them to your local 2nd hand shop next week!

Something odd. Real odd. But not listed on the discography.

Personally I think Silver Age is the worst PSB song ever.... but that's just my perspective. Either way, it still warrants being on a Nightlife Further Listening disc.

I have now listened to the album via the PC speakers, on the mp3 player whilst running and in the car to work. It took about three or four listens to realise that this album is one of their finest. The number of slower songs does not bother me. The trademark Trevor Horn production goes hand in hand...

Just got the single for I'm with stupid, and I have to say the difference in quality between that and what was floating around the net early on is ASTONISHING.
