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.

Apropo royalties for West End girls: today I've seen a new commercial for one of the Danish banks, and they used West End girls's melody for it! Is it legal? Can PSB demand any compansation for it? Does anybody really care about their opinion at all? :? :?:
Presumably they have given permission and will be getting...
I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but the German band "Element of Crime" have covered Drunk and have included it as a b-side to their new single Delmenhorst.
They've also written a little comment on their website:

Here's one we seem to have missed.
Amazon says that a Boxed Set called Just Say Sire: The Sire Records Story was released on Sept 27, 05. It's 3 CDs of Sire acts plus a DVD with videos by some of the acts - in our case New York City boy by PSB.

Sire was the label of the '80, that is a good collection, but I have most of it already.
Okay, laugh, snicker, carp and jeer if you like, but I’ve always enjoyed the Pet Shop Boys. The remixes are always techno exceptionale, and the lads write some fine songs. The vocals put some people off - too twee, too weightless, too . . . gay. As for the last charge,...

Those early demos make me laugh. Like Oh Dear and Budadabadabadabadum.
Put in order (depending on your taste, which the best sentences have been said about the new album are). The thing you like most will be the first and the last one, the thing you like less.

First off, I'm hearing lots of talk about the new Robbie Williams track "Sin Sin Sin" - and how it sounds EXACTLY like the Pet Shop Boys ... not only musically but also in the way Robbie sings on this track. So has anyone here heard it and are the comparisons fair?
I'm listening to the jingle PSB wrote for "The Noise". What was The Noise, though. TV show or something? A little confused....

I seem to remember it was a music show.
It appears my memory is returning fully. I have yet to remember why I started drinking however. Whenever I consider it I just see a face... Could it be the face of the devil, I wonder?
I was asked to do a CD-R of PSB songs for my girlfriends mother.
Which songs do you think a 'mother' in 55 of ages would like?
Some must be songs that she has 'heard on radio' and recognize but I don't want it to be too much up-tempo electronica.
Here is the songs I choosed.

They are going to do whatever they want with the new album, but if you could give them one advice about a particular thing you would like to listen on the album, tell us. Maybe, PSB are reading that.

A hi-nrg (!) or a house album would do just fine, for me. Complete with all PSB melancholic trademarks spread throughout the record... plus lots of saxes, flute and trumpets playing along with the keyboards (I like brass...)
PSB appeared twice in this eclectic, heterogeneous list from Oct'2005 Blender mag.
Outkast, Britney's Baby One More Time and 50cent among the top 10 is arguable (and I like some Outkast tracks). But quite interesting list, nevertheless.

Looks like we'll have to wait and see what happens with this one.
Once there was talk to make No time for tears a Single. What happen to the idea?

Not a good idea. 'Nyet' is the only song that could be a great single.
you better should write ...that could be a single... :)
I'm sure we will get the missing tracks/versions on one of the next singles from the new album.
I know this is very close to being off-topic, but it is worth noting that Harold Pinter - until now most famous for being mentioned in the lyrics of Up Against it (he with the "slow scenes") - has won this year's Nobel Prize for literature. A bit of a surprise, I understand.

In the studio - 18 October '05
Chris and Neil with producer Trevor Horn are now mixing the tracks for their forthcoming album. It is expected that the album will be finished within the next month and will be released in Spring next year.
Touring plans for next year are currently being discussed.

PSB´s gigs are fabulous live. It´s worth of all that money to go abroad to see them.
Am I imagining things or did somebody post a link a couple of days ago to a strange mix of TSA... I listened to it and thought it sounded like it was produced on an old casio synth... funny though. Thing is... I can't find it and now I think I've dreamt it all up ? Help

Trying to move the discussion back to its original topic: Why would anyone care about a TSA mix? TSA is one of the worst songs the PSB have recorded (musically, that is, lyrically it's one of their best) - I'D do anything to find out how to get my hands on a good quality copy of the Alter-Ego remix...

Won't even try to download anything for I don't want to guess if it's a fake or not and don't want to hear anything before the official release. (Then I'll be able to look in Neil's eyes without any shame thinking how many songs I've downloaded and that if Neil knew that he would kill me :angel: )

Hello everyone!
I was just wondering if anyone got the lyrics for "you've got to start somewhere". I've been looking everywhere for the lyrics and I haven't found it :(
Assuming all the tracks we've heard titles for are on the album, and assuming there are 12 tracks on the album in a desperate 'let's do Very again' move, which of the following tracklist orders is the most likely:
1.Numb
2.The Resurrectionist
3.The Sodom and Gomorrah Show...
Because the producer is TH. I don't know a lot of things about how a song is made. So if TH is the new producer, what kind of things have Abu Duque made for the new album?

Just to stay on topic; Abu Duque will probably get pre-production credits on the tracks he's worked on (if any of his input is still used that is)
thought that would get your attention :wink: anyway the album could be delayed by a teeny weeny bit as according to one of the Paddingtons (in this months Esquire - being a music special)
