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.
Good review for Fundamental in today's new issue. Sorry, I don't have a scanner. :( Headline: Dancing in the Dark.
Also, there is a full-page ad for the new album featuring another new picture (well, new to me).

Very positive review by Dorian Lynskey. I like the pay-off line saying that they write pop music about things that are relevant now (and that you can sometimes dance to). That's what they've always done and something which is in short supply in the X Factor pop landscape.
Todays Aftonbladet (Swedish tabloid) lists what music you should download this week. Number one (1) is "Subliminal" by Pet Shop Boys. Quote "Yet another reason to long for the upcoming Pet Shop Boys album".
Any idea what the're on about? Minimal is my best guess, but that song isn't available for...
I saw Lalo Creme plays along on I'm with stupid. I know Lol Creme, he has worked with Trevor Horn on quite some albums (the last Art of Noise album, Godley & Creme), is Lalo his real name, or any relation.
On another note: was the Pets full performance in Moscow@Live8 ever broadcast?

Yes, on Russian MTV
Popbitch predicts a top 10 entry for I'm with stupid. How far do you think it will fall in its second week? I'd be amazed if it was still in the top 20.
Does anyone know who sings that haunting intro to 'I Made My Excuses...?'
At first I thought it was Chris but not so sure now - it certainly isn't Neil.
Another question regarding the best PSB album since Behaviour - is that Hooky from New Order playing bass on 'Minimal'?
3. How do you store your music? iTunes, CD rack, vinyl etc. / how much space does it take up?

1. Well I have about 1000 psb tracks all in itunes some duplicates but trying to sort them out most are from CDs lots are downloads of tracks of promos and stuff i can't find hard copies of.
2. I am guessing its about 93-97% of official releases according to

I'm afraid not, apart from creditcard
maybe.
I don't know about 'HappyDigits' ...
So, it wasn't much help in the end
probably. Sorry.
I'll post in here in case I have found
another one being more useful. :wink:
I'm just wondering what decides how many singles will get released off an album. Personally, I don't see why you'd stop until the next candidate for a single would be projected to fall short of the Top 20. Maybe this is what happens... maybe this is why London got canned as a 3rd single from...

They should put out an EP featuring a catchy single that's not on the album to boost interest. They've done this three times before...
Anyone have the lyrics?
I have it almost pieced together but there
are parts where I can't quite get what Neil
is singing.
Cheers!

I finally gave in this afternoon and had my first listen to INTEGRAL.
What a song !
This is the first PSB track to send a 'shiver' through me for a looooong time.
This song just has to be heard by the 'masses' - IT HAS TO BE A SINGLE.

I personally still dont get what his problem with ID cards is I really dont.

'Q' review - 2 May '06
The latest issue of 'Q', a leading UK music magazine, includes one of the first reviews of the new PSB album.
"...Fundamental is much like 1987's Actually or 1990's Behaviour (i.e. it sits right alongside the duo's very best work)."
"Britain's great pop group? Absolutely."...
Last post
Piers Martin writes for Uncut, so Drico probably refers to him.
And he never liked th PSB. When he was still writing for NME he never missed an opportunity to slag them off, which he is of course entitled to.
Wouldn't make a good single but sits at home perfectly on Fundamental. Tracklisting-wise I would have moved it just before Integral to highlight that "sometimes the solution is worse than the problem".
Given the new interest sparked by the new album, I'm interested in hearing other fans best moments (so far). I've been a fan since the first version of opportunites ( I bought the single after hearing the b-side - took me ages to find at the time - and yep I'm an oldie!!)
My personal highlights...

Who's managed to get a copy? Which formats have you bought? Was the shop well stocked? Does the glossy finish to your 7" sleeve look a bit glazed? Did the shop staff say "good choice our kid"?

I was hoping you'd found it in some chain-store. PSB or not, it's not worth spending 50€ just to go to Helsinki and back to get me a copy

Only for people from UK. I know it's a little bit difficult to predict something about sales but:

I'm an American fan but I have a Sirius radio. One of the most interesting but also irratatting channels is BBC1.

Well, they'll have to play at least once...on Sunday in the chart show between 4pm and 7pm!
Just arrived home from the Potemkin gig. From where I was, the show seemed to go down a treat. Differences from the London gig were that Tim Healy (North East actor) gave a brief talk prior to the show which was basically an overview of and background to the movie. Also, there was live trumpet...

I don't think Sarah Kennedy was having a swipe at the lads, she explained last week that she loved the appearance on top of the pops.
She tends to talk too much over the music in her shows. I still listen though - yep I'm getting on a bit now, pass the pipe and slippers!!!!! :twisted:

I received the I'm with stupid DVD today and in the sleeve it gives you the details to download a real ringtone of I'm with stupid.
I texted my order, but it keeps replying with a message saying the item code is not valid, though it is the code in the sleevenotes... did anyone in the UK manage to download the ringtone?

I can´t order any ringtones in my mobile phone. :( So no way of getting I'm with stupid.
They´ve started adding those ringtone orders on cd sleeves.
Without a ticket, I managed to blag my way in, and found a seat about 10 rows back. It's a great theatre, maybe seats around 500, sloping back away from the enormous stage. Elton John sat near the back, next to the ubiqutous Janet Street-Porter. The stage was set up...
Randi Rhodes has been playing West End Girls as a bumper for the last month and a half, right around the time I started a post to promote Im With Stupid in her music section on her bulletin board (it's in the Heard on the show section).

Interesting. She really should play I'm with stupid, though I can’t take her for very long. She can be SO obnoxious.

I noticed under TOP ARTIST DOWNLOADS the first one is 'Girls Don't Cry', then 'The Resurrectionists', plus a couple of 'I'm with stupid' mixes. The single version is the 5th listed.

This is all sounding too good ... I can't wait to slap the cd into my player and play it fully from start to finish in a darkened room ... twice! ... just like I used to do with all new PSB releases back in the day.
That's exactly what I did. You've really got something to look forward to.

So Robbie performing one song at a one-off PSB gig will prevent him from appearing at any of Take That's numerous tour dates, will it? You can"t beat tabloid journalism!
Just looking through the podcast directory on iTunes, I came across one that was basically an interview with Will Young carried out by David Walliams for Will's website.

I think it would be very useful if the official site could list which downloads of I'm with stupid are available and where. At the moment it is all a bit confusing. It would also appear that the downloads are only available in the UK. Is this one of those troublesome BPI rules? Also, do all the official...
