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.
Tennant: We've spent the first five months of this year in our studio writing songs. We now have 16 new songs and are currently recording nine of them with Trevor Horn.
I'm a little slow on the uptake, does that mean they have indeed scrapped all of...

No, they will save some tracks for b-sides and perhaps a future release of some kind.
They always record more tracks than they include on the album - the 'Release' demo CD with several completely unreleased tracks is a testament to this.
What language will the dialogue cards for the movie be written in? I've seen sample of one version of the movie here in the U.S. on DVD. The dialogue cards were written in Russian with English subtitles.

Thanks zunkunft.
I thought German might be the answer, but then I considered the soundtrack lyrics would likely remain in English. And aren't the Boys working off "their" version of the film, and not the newly restored German version from earlier this year?
I've just started reading iPod, therefore i am by Dylan Jones, editor of GQ magazine. It is littered with references to PSB and he says that Being boring makes him well up even now!

the best baps in England belong to Lucy Pinder
I'd never heard of Lucy Pinder before, but after visiting her website at www.lucypinder.info , then I have to agree with you!
Going to be honest here, the early PSB sounds is what they are all about.
The PSBs to me is West End Girls --> Was It Worth It.
How can anyone match the fantastic sounds of the Synth sound of West End girls and Opportunities, the haunting sounds of Love Comes Quickly, to the cracking synth sounds of It's A...

Harry, I enjoyed Potemkin too.
As a one off, it was special, and I ahve fond memories of the event last year.
But now they seem to have taken it beyond that, milking it for more than its worth. It isnt THAT good, it more of a curiosity than anything, why they have decided to tour the world with...
Long time ago I remember seeing photos from Nightlife Tour where Neil T and Chri L are with people in fancy dress on stage (and I'm not talking about the New York City Boys and Silvia) performing their show. I think they were pet-heads :shock: but I don't know. I think I saw it on the PET FILES...
I think we'll have to wait for news about studio album, these days the official site is going to talk about Potemkin only, I suppose. :(
Last post
I still think they should have released the Potemkin CD as a limited edition bonus CD to go with the forthcoming album. It would probably reach a broader audience that way.
At least, one song with more than four o five minutes as usual.

The brilliance of Go West is not its cheesy dance production, but it's the way Pet Shop Boys covered it. The subtle changes in the melody, the newly written bridge, the one tone up (before the final chorus) and the dance part after the final 'goooo weeeeest.'
Sometimes I am a little bit surprised to see how many people think PSB are a group of the 80's. People said that because PSB don't have massive hits from 1993 with Go West and it was a cover.
My question is: do you think if psb WANT to make a massive hit they are able to do it?.
I know they...

I suppose I'm in the minority here - I have always loved Se a vida e and never understood why people hate it so much. I think it's beautifully wistful.
I love Before too. The only single from Bilingual I have a problem with is Single-Bilingual which is a good track but too esoteric to be a single....
I've just been looking on www.amazon.co.uk. Originally, there were two "Battleship Potemkin" releases due - one at 11.99 and one at £15.99. There was a thread about these 2 releases - one which was due to be just CD and the other to be a CD+DVD release:
However now all Amazon seem to list is one...

Hello.. been a member forever, but am now a certified lurker!

I prefer Disco 2.
Ouch!
This is hard hitting and controversial posting at it's extreme best.
Personally I'd rather have a hearty dose of clap rather than a copy Disco 2.
As it turns out I have both and I don't appear to be able to get rid of either.
According to my TiVo, PSB will be interviewed by Elaine Paige on her Radio 2 Show on Sunday September 4th. They will be talking about their admiration for songwriters such as Noel Coward and Stephen Sondheim. As usual with BBC Radio shows, after the live recording it will be available on 'Listen...

And a wonderful tip of the hat to the PSB aesthetic :clap:
I know I'd have had a good laugh if I saw this display. N&C in patently fake wigs & eyebrows peeping out at us is certainly worth a giggle or two.
Well, so it they were going to include the 3 songs of Potemkin on the new album (which ones are pop songs with strong orchestral arregments).
I think the "epic" songs of the new album could be orchestral songs too, as I thought. At least, with strings. If not, PSB never would have thought the...

He has changed his 'how the new album will sound like' story so many times during the last 2 years and it's taking so long to complete
Alongside their new album they could release a five-disc dvd set: "The making of".

cannot understand, i cannot understand why there is no single release on the soundtrack potemkin. how, please, can someone tell me, how shall the soundtrack attack the top 100 without a single release???
do people think the boys are in the right position to launch a new album? what i mean is - coming off the back (ish) of Flamboyant, Miracles and Potemkin. Is it the right or wrong time to make a comeback?
My personal opinion is that it is the perfect time. I've got a lot of mates who loved...
Last post
I don't think this is a comeback - they have always taken their time for the albums, and done a lot of side projects. I don't think PopArt, Flamboyant, Miracles, Potemkin or Disco 3 make a lot of difference either way - as an established band, PSB will get a lot of publicity when they bring out the...

Heard the TV ad for the Finnish version of The Beauty and the Geek yesterday.
During the long ad Opportunities was played. Something like 20-30 seconds.

I think we'll probably have some news (apart from Potemkin release) about the studio album. Someone has taken old studio news away from the Official Site.

Emma Bunton released 3 before the Free Me album and Dannii Minogues new album (will eventually be released) after 2 singles. Suppose George Michael Patience had 3 before release. Geri Passion also had 2 singles before it's release.

I have the feeling fans will be very satisfied with this forthcoming new album. There will be more hits on it than on their previous records. It will be a comeback of success again after 90´s.
These days I have been listening the album of Tina Turner, Wildest Dreams. It's a funny to do that because on it you can hear people like Antonio Banderas (singing in Spanish), Sting, the 50% of U2's composition "Goldeneye" (soundtrack of the James Bond movie). But overall, of course, the Pet Shop...
