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 recently watched Pop-Art videos. More than half of them for the first time in my life and some, such as Go West, can you forgive her, What have I done to deserve this, It's a sin, I wouldn't normally do this kind of thing - after about a ten years break. It was like returning in childhood in time machine.

Racie, PopArt dvd was published long ago, i was just lazy to go to buy it.
And they sold me 2 copies by mistake (found it out at home), now i will present 1 to someone 8)

Heart and Yesterday, when I was mad still the best.
I was a fool not to see them earlier.

I think animals are conditioned to their environment. My cat can happily curl up and go to sleep next to a stereo that blares out techno and dance music, and of course PSB! She's known nothing else since kittenhood.
Must say she tends to scratch the good furniture when she hears 'I want a Dog'...
GOT BACK IN ON SUNDAY MORNINg and started to listen to pete tong`s essential selection on Radio 1... Managed to hear a very strange dub mix of west end girls. Check it out by going here...

yep, the link was to Juno Records website where they have samples of all records they sell.
Sorry, I removed the link because no-one spoke up. We have to be sure we're not hosting copyrighted material here for obvious reasons.
For me it was Please LP (traded it from my older sis :0))
First 12" I bought (at release date) think it was Left T M O D. 12"

My first PSB purchase was Rent on 7" (the day after the infamous "hurricane" in the UK in October 1987). I followed that up with Always On My Mind on 7" and then got Please and Actually on LP for Crimbo. After that I was hooked!

Well I remember them doing a version of 'Suburbia' for one of Jonathan Ross's guests, so I'd imagine that will be in there somewhere.
I think it'll probably be the main source to know new things related to the new album. It supossed the answers given to fan questions, which are included on it, will talk about it.
Could someone please tell me where/when this clip was played?

I can not listen to the sample but I guess it might be from "Break 4 love", which Neil did in collaboration with Peter Rauhoffer.

What was funny was that everyone agreed, apart from Can You Forgive Her? We were split down the middle. I put the casting vote for art.

NOT ONE 4 GOSSIP
More likely it would be: "Bizarre...Pet Shop Boys".
It´s been advertised on Spanish TV today, and though PSB image didn´t appear, "PET SHOP BOYS" could be seen in the backgroud among the rest of the artists. :)

Go West Live8 in Moscow has been showed by Mtv around the world .... :P
Was Go West the best song that could have been chosen from their Live 8 set? I haven't seen any of the others, but maybe West End Girls or Domino Dancing would have been a better choice?

There is a very good interview with Peter Hook in the Filter magazine web page and he makes a funny comment about PSB:

To quote the always interesting Wayne Studer:

I love 'Some speculation'! It's unique and gorgeous. It was especially good at the Savoy show, the bass was really thumpy and Sylvia Mason-James enhanced it a lot.
Been thinking about quite a huge project for some years now, but now might be the time to realize it! - I'm going to take ALL PSB-songs and make an A-Z catalouge on CD. I'll make one CD per character and I need YOUR help to select _which versions_ and in _what_ order to place the songs! I'll make a...
I LOVE these songs.
If there was a chance to make a current version, which one would you choose?

Darkmoon: I haven't heard anything about the Attribute project, but we're planning to release "Nervously" and "the End of the World" on our own in stead.
Well... if you are in need of a remix for 'The end of the world', send me a PM, I'd love to do it!

Just bought the Live 8 DVD box set which has just been released.
PSB are on disc 3, sandwiched in between Neil Young and Robbie Williams (so to speak). Only "Go West" has been included, but it's nicely appropriate as they are performing in Moscow. I like the arrangement they use, but Neil's vocal...

He's more than a little off too .. but that might have been a problem with the monitor system :roll:

I had already heard the Stephen Hague West End Girls in the Rio De Janeiro radios a few times (around 1986).
Just when I was getting used to it, I heard in the motel I was, after having a wonderful afternoon... I vividly remember the moment it played: I was intrigued by that sad melody.
Taking a look to the official site is easy to know how much Neil Tennat visits this forum.
For example:
.The kids charity
.The pop justice article: "One of OUR favourite websites..." (Neil doesn't hide he is the person who writes the news on the official site).
It's funny to see that :twisted:

:lol: Oh dear. Yes of course you're right, and I do know that. I can't have been thinking straight. The shame :oops:
Rather than speculate whether they frequent this forum to stay abreast of public opinion, lets assume that every so often when there's nothing but cr@p on the telly they do, and they're reading this thread right now.

Finally I got my BP CD from Thailand, surprisingly they manufactured it in Thailand! It is wthout slipcase, no sticker. No CC too.
Everything else (artwork) is similar, I think. And it is not even released in SINGAPORE!?!?!? Darn it - does EMI Singapore think this is a non-selling item?
Brief mention of the Boys. In the latest Attitude magazine (Nov 2005), Trinny and Susannah (English fashion 'gurus') are questioned in the 'How Gay Are You?' section. One of the questions asks them if they know who Chris Lowe is. To which Susanna answers :
