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.
Stupid mixes - 24 March '06
Pet Shop Boys have done their own "PSB Maxi-Mix" of "I'm with Stupid". Other remixes of the new single are by Melnyk, Max Tundra and Abe Duque.
From official site.

I believe they are not good remixers, but it's interesting a remix of their own songs.
I really have heard enough..!!
It is extraordinary.
Nickname..........do you dislike all their remixes, including those of their own songs? (This won't be the first time - you do realise that don't you?)
* Bill Hamel (as Mezz) - Loved his work for years on Sunkissed, big in the pop remix scene too.
* Dave Seamen (as Group Therapy) - What can be said... Loved what he did for TFF.

I'm afraid it's not a fact that Radio 1 helps to improve sales (unless it's of the latest R&B chav band or the "indie flavour of the month"). In reality, Radio 1 stopped being relevent YEARS ago, especially in the case of the PSB's. Radio 2 is the most listened to station in the UK so I would say...
Yesterday I found in a store some 12"-s from the Paid Show Boys called West End Girls with a pic of Neil and Chris on the disc....off course I did get myself one, cause I did not believe it would be the Boys....but now, I am listening to it and it is indeed a remix of West End Girls, with the...

Is this show still on? It is no longer listed on the PSB site. However, NME did state it was happening earlier this week ( ), but now it is not on the PSB site. What's up?
Off to London in a few hours to spend a couple of days with the missus.

Yeah, Berwick St is your best bet. Also try Notting Hill where there are about 6 branches of Music Exchange, one of which has loads of PSB stuff, but not cheap.
HMV on Oxford St is the best corporate option.
Also Phonica on Poland St may just provide you with an exclusive promo, if you're lucky!...
I remember I read (when Release US 2CD was released) some messages that the audio quality of the bonus disc isn't excellent (reportedly sounded like some low-bitrate compressed audio). Can anyone say his/her opinion on that?
If it is "officially" of an inferior quality, then I'd like...
Last post
I was the one to gripe originally. I hope it did not scare off to many people. It is just the Home and Dry mix that is compressed quality. The rest is great and the only place you can get Nightlife on CD. I dunno the reasoning behind the inferior quality for the blank and jones mix, they probably...
I was playing San Andreas the other day and I heard another version of it, not PSB's version. My guess its a song from early 90's or late 80's, because the game is set in 1992.
(Though I prefer PSB version better)

I think Chris is OK but I don't think Neil is. He may be healthy looking but he has a quircky faulty quality doesn't he. He can be classed with the 'faulty's'. I don't think girls can go for that... not the smart sexy ones like Amy Adams. Also Chris seems short and stubby doesn't he. I don't think...
Victoria Newton's bizarre infatuation with PSB continues.

It's all good publicity. At least she didn't call them "camp band" or "gay icons" this time. :wink:
What with the 'light sabre' Word picture and the fantastic new shot released today, methinks Neil has been at the Hayward Gallery recently. :wink:

A series of stunning Flavin installations is permanently visible in Italy at Villa Panza di Biumo, Varese, near Milan, for anyone interested. Flavin died in 1996 at 63.

It has been mentioned on Danish radiostation P3 that the Danish musician/producer/remixer Anders Trentemoller has done a remix of the song. Maybe for a future single release or perhaps Fundamentalism?
Seems like this guy listens to it a lot..

there is also a good remix in my opinion from

I may be able to shed some light on the PSB, Blaknoisewhitesoul 100% royalties issue.

I know that the director of Donnie Darko wanted to use West End Girls in the Sparkle Motion sequence but it was too expensive.

M-80 is a radio station that usually play a lot of PSB songs (every day) and the best music of the 70's, 80's and 90's.

Today would have been a poignant day to release I'm with stupid.

I have no clue except for some remix of I'm with stupid. Perhaps a remix of Minimal, since it was already remixed by some DJ's but other than that :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

hope it'll contain all the lyrics for the new album, for the b-sides (at least to 'I'm with stupid' b-sides)
Anne Dudley - 19 March '06
A three-part series begins on BBC Radio 2 this Wednesday lookin at the career and work of a long-time PSB collaborator, the composer and arranger Anne Dudley. The series includes contributions from Neil Tennant and Trevor Horn. Click on the link for more information....
Last post
Dudley's break came in the 1980s, when she met ZTT's Trevor Horn and became "integral " to his often Pygmalion-like production jobs on the likes of Frankie Goes To Hollywood.
Oh my, there's that word again. (parenthesis added for effect)
What makes a song sound like a Trevor Horn production. The Fundamental CD is produced by him. Who writes the songs, who makes these sounds? Would the album sound different if someone else would have produced it. If Neil and Chris write their songs (that´s what I hope) what exactly is Trevor doing...
The knowing wink and nod word play of Pet Shop Boys has always made them a magnetic draw to me, and over the years we've been treated to all manner of double entendres, hidden meanings, and arcane references. However, their latest sniggering effort has probably surpassed the lot.
I haven't noticed...

Btw, reading the rules about singles, my understanding is that a 7'', a Maxi CD and a Maxi DVD can be combined, so they can avoid releasing the bloody 2-track-10-bloody-minutes CD single. :pray: :pray:

of course that was deliberate - Neil couldn't be too obvious on this one now could he!
As far as I'm aware this is the first news to break regarding I'm with stupid remixers....avant-garde (whatever that means) electronica whiz-kid Max Tundra, who also happens to be a very good friend of mine, is contributing 2 remixes for the forthcoming single.
Is the version I'm with stupid on the radio the radio version? It goes from 19 minutes in to 22 and a half so 3:30. Is the album version longer?

Yes, but most times the chords are the same in the chorus all through the song.
Did anybody else notice that the first chorus (after the first verse) seems to be missing the pads used in the second chorus? Similar to the Pop Art version of Flamboyant. Thus you really don't get the chord change of...
I hope the whole Bush thing will make the single sort of controversial and ensure it gets lots of airplay.
