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'm here since mid-February and I haven't read anything about this track here.
So, I'm really, really, really interested in what you guys think about it.
I have it for few years and it's still the most weirdest thing PSB did; at least to me....
It's a cover, it doesn't contain neither Neil's or...

quite good track.It would be even better if Chris sang those lyrics with Sam Taylor Wood :D
would he moan or would it still be Sam? :D
I bet he wouldn't moan,but it would be funny to hear him tho
I read lengthy interviews with the PSB as they described what certain particular songs were about. This shattered my perception of what the songs were about, the songs I've been humming to for years and only too find out that it's about something else entirely! I dunno, it's kinda ruined the song...

Lyrics, like paintings, are often open to interpretation. Not always, but often.
That's the beauty of art, I think. So what if you get a different meaning from a PSB song than what Neil or Chris intended. It's not WRONG, just DIFFERENT.
And if you end up going "Aaaah, ok..I THOUGHT that's what...
I've decided to try to wait for Fundamental without listening to any songs in advance (that includes also I'm with stupid) to have once again "undisturbed" album experience (well, actually it must be at some point back in 89-91 when I heard a PSB album without knowing any song in advance for the last time)....
Last post
I'm not too worried about hearing the single(s) first. I'm kinda thinking that maybe the single might be a little different from the album mix, ala Suburbia, Heart, I wouldn't normally do..., Yesterday when I was mad, etc. If the single is slightly different, then when I hear the CD, it will still...
Stupid video - 1 April '06
The promotional video for "I'm with Stupid" is being filmed this weekend (April 1/2). It stars Matt Lucas and David Walliams. (Neil and Chris also appear in it.)
Cool that the boys have a guest appereance in their own...

I hope they're (N+ C) not in that much, a few scenes and maybe in the background.
lol what kind of fans have we become,
we dont like there pic on the album and now not in the video....
thats some funny $#!* man!!!!
I like the album cover :roll:
As for the video, I just like LB more :wink:
It was posted YESTERDAY on the Popjustice's forum (by Hula Fallulah):
There's something incredibly wrong with 'Fundamental' and I can't put my finger on it.
I've given it a couple of listens now, and I'm finding it, well, incredibly dull.
The only real highlights for me are Minimal (certainly...

Anyway, Im looking forward to all the comments on release day - the inevitable disagreements! One thing is for sure. It's their best album in a decade.
Would you mind making your own ranking of PSB's albums with "Fundamental" on it?
Was in Tescos late last night and saw a very large (6 pages + and full front page ) interview with PSB in The Word magazine. Didn't get a chance to buy it as it was a flying visit with the missus. :lol: :roll:
The importance of the downloads on the uk ¿singles? official chart is really big. Gnarls Barkley with "Crazy" is the new Number one but the single wil be launched this Monday.
Now, everybody can understand why PSB have changed their plans about singles.
Last post
PSB aren't the sort of band that will really benefit from the new rules as it's the kids who make the difference with this.
How so? :? Surely kids can't buy things online as they don't have credit cards!
You don't need a credit card, you can pay by SMS these days!
In my communications with Redman RE: the US release of Fundamental, I asked him about a possible re-design of the official site.
His response:
The site is going to be redesigned, we're just in the process of waiting to see who PSB chooses. It's between my company and a company in London....I made...

May I remind you that YOU brought the subject up. So, as the saying goes: If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. Nickname wanted to know what "corker" meant and I gave him a rough translation :lol:
America - 30 March '06
We would like to inform American Petheads that the USA release of "Fundamental" is under advanced discussion at the moment. We're hoping that it will be released in the USA on the same date as the rest of the world.

do you need some kind of special DVD playing software? (My PC doesn't play DVDs)... :cry:
Not to rip the audio tracks off you don't. As long as you have a DVD rom drive you can use DVD audio extractor to rip the audio tracks. I think ISOBuster may do it as well.
Beyond my understanding of conventional wisdom and beating about the bush, my understanding has reached a point of Universal conventional wisdom. I think in a form of identity undertaking, conventionally in modern society you have the ideal hypothesis concerning the structure of binary oppositional...

As frustrating as it is, Popjustice attract thousands of music fans to its site of all ages, and I expect only a small minority of visitors are PSB fans.
Neil recently stated that he loves the whole 'pop culture' thing and mentioned Popjustice. The site has an ideal audience; kids, adults,...
NOw they play I'm with stupid on finnish radio too. KissFM plays it every 3 hours this weekend. I´m listening to the radio station. I don´t like its music style much but now I have to listen to it. :shock:
As with all things there comes a time, after the experimentation, the doubting, the loss of enthusiasm, the identity crisis and the futility of it all that you come full circle and meet the point once more why you started to do what you do in the first...
Seriously, I haven't been here for a while, and the last time I checked in on you lot, I went straight for the off topic section.
So, they're touring again? There's new songs out?
The reason for me wisiting again is I thought I heard Neil's voice echoing from a radio at work today, and it was a...

So there are no mixes on the three formats i think. So you can get it perhaps through downloading from itunes. I heard from madonna and new order fans that the quality isn`t good. But was does this mean. I think ripping a cd with 256 kbps is near cd quality and 320 is cd quality.
Does this mean...

Just noticed how far we need good quality in our music now...years back, when the cassette was a usual format, I felt more than happy when I bought every PSB album or single released that way...the poor quality never was a problem then...I paid for that with a smile in my face, even when the sound...
When is Ebay going to start controlling what people are selling!!!
There are some morons on Ebay actually selling tickets to the Newcastle gig. Many PSB fans have been dissapointed because they were unable to get tickets, and now it would appear that some people have only obtained them for a...
Last post
It's not too bad if the prices are reasonable, but you haven't a hope in hell when arseholes get other arseholes to bid them up to inflate the price. There's probably a good reason the tickets are free in the first place.
It was EASILY available on the day of release here in Sweden and many weeks on, and by no means withdrawn? - what does he mean? - stupidly enough thou, I sold my copy and 'upgraded' to the UK version since it had the outer cover...

Interesting prices...is somebody rigging them? I've come across that 12" many times in Copenhagen at much lower prices - I think I have two copies at home.
I've pre-ordered my copys of the single from the official site. One question I forgot to ask was wether sales from the official site go towards the chart position. Does anybody no the answer to this?
Last post
I don't think online sales count. I know they didn't a while back but I don't know about now. I'd rather get from the shop as it is far easier to do.
I'm pretty sure the pre-ordered sales DO count towards the chart. 'Jack and Jill Party' was released exclusively through Recordstore and it made...
I just read here that there may be no U.S. release and they may have to rely on imports, so please tell me that isn't the case with Canadians? Hopefully, this will replicate PopArt, which had a Canadian release. Plus, at an HMV they had a slip case in the PSB section saying 'Look for the new PSB...

this is waht EMI Canada says for PSB

Release information for "Fundamental (Ltd Ed)" not currently available.
I'm not sure if this has been discussed yet but what are the plans if any for a US release. While Sancutary didn't do much for promotion of the last two PSB releases they put out, they were at least out there and are still in print and available. Will they be releasing "Fundamental" as well or does...
Last post
Erasure might be closer to a fair comparison, but I don't think NO is- they were more popular than PSB at both of their heights...(and NO has a label that believes in them).
Yes, PopArt wasn't released because of all the labels bickering, but if it were really that important, a deal could have...
I think that few (if any) other pop artists give fans the same opportunity to ask questions, and we're probably lucky that we had the chance to ask anything at all.
It's a great thrill for any fan to be acknowledged. Even Neil & Chris seemed a bit in awe to meet & work with Liza and Dusty.
appearantly, this issue is already available to some, and this is what the interview contained:
1. Neil claiming that although in public eye he is talkative and Chris is quiet, in real life it is actually opposite.
2. Neil saying that they always wanted to become cartoon characters.

He was trying to escape from naked Nickname who kept chasing him and, I'm paraphrasing, 'I think is possible that sychologikal can not be a singel if it is intrstruments music, no?' :P
There will be an exclusive gig at the Mermaid Theatre in London on 8th May. it's a BBC radio show , similar to their previous on at the BBC Radio Theatre a few years ago. No other details as yet - suffice to sat tickets won't be for sale so look out for competitions etc some time soon!

The ABC documentary about the making of this musical and the life of Dusty, this week featured the contribution of PSB in her comeback.
