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.

What's saddest about all the moaning about how Neil and Chris have betrayed us/slept with our fathers/collaborated with the Nazis is that there will come a day when they no longer release music.
And then we'll look back on the halcyon days when we could pay £8.99 for one new track. ;)
Alright...I've been looking for it for ages and guess what, I manage to watch it today finally! so I put it to Youtube at once to share with you guys 8)
Yes...another "live" performance (Sylvia was singing LIVE btw), but I really love those Chris-close-up shots!
Last post
Being a Pethead, it looks fake.
Neil's voice has changed over the years and the way he sings this track...so it looked as it is...the odd vocal over the top of the 7".
...this man could get arrested for impersonating Neil Tennant!
Parlophone have informed us that the release date of Disco 4 will probably have to be put back by one or two weeks because of delays in completing the licensing of tracks from other record companies. We will confirm the new release date here shortly.

Altered tracklist, after removing songs for which license could not be obtained:
1. Pet Shop Boys, Integral (Perfect Immaculate remix)
2. Pet Shop Boys, I'm With Stupid (PSB Maxi mix)

That's great! I was thinking the entire "Disco 4" idea not only made little sense but was probably not easy...

It only says 'served' them, and I take it as once, not a regular occurrence. And it could have been as a larf, him popping in and liking a pipe, or simply a gift, as I'm sure they have a lot of friends and some of them are bound to smoke.

Do you think there will ever be Pet Shop Boys albums with these titles?

No it wouldn't, so let's call it "Mixed up" instead, or whatever. My point was that for some odd reason people here are ignoring history and expect great things from a 'Disco' releases while a "bonus" release of remixes (being made available for the general public for the first time) would hardly...

I think they count albums, eps, singles, 12". 7", dvds, 10", cassets, everything since they started to release music on any format.
unless I'm hallucinating I just went onto the popjustice website and their song of the day was Integral (new remix) I clicked on the link and it brought up a Kylie song, when I went back it was a Kylie song again. Could be worth keeping an eye on the site

The perfect immaculate mix sounds incredibly flat, it almost feels like they've gone out of there way to kill this. I get a tingle down my spine when I hear the album version, none of that with the promo, just boredom. Oh well..

There are endless possibilities on just how a song can be redone and I found Disco 2 to be quite admirable. Although I am only a novice PSB fan and in many cases these were my first tastes of some of the songs featured, I can say that my listening experience was pleasant and enjoyable.
If Erasure and PSB had a fight, who would win? I reckon Andy would be knocked out pretty quickly by Neil, while Vince would probably try to bite Chris in the ankle. If it came down to Neil and Vince, I reckon Neil could just about take him.

Just make sure you have a GREAT pause button, or you may not even see yourself! :lol:
I completely disagree with this. I've done nothing wrong, yet i'm still absolutely terrified. I think Disco 4 has to take much of the blame. Yoko Ono is scarier than Satan.

It is intriguing to think what is it that you could "do wrong", in this song? :roll:

OK, I know a straightforward B-sides compilation follow-up to 'Alternative' wouldn't provide us with any exclusive material (although sure that could be sorted by a quick rummage through the vaults), but look at what sort of a tasty line-up it would potentially be. :P Surely this would be more...

I am all for another Alternative cd, perhaps they would consider it.
This week saw a few songs re-entering the UK charts:
"I wouldn't normally do this kind of thing" 12"/12" (#118);

last usa figures I saw still had Fundamental selling fewer copies than Disco 3!
Its gotta be close to Gold (100k) in the UK by now, but selling only a handful of copies a week is going to take a decade to get that elusive gold cert from the BPI.
we all know disco 4 with mostly negative responses, so if the boys put out disco 5 or any future disco series, what old "official mixes" can be compiled to make a great Disco?

Well not in my opinion. :lol:

What have I done to deserve this (SP mix) Good one :clap:

Also TS+GS demo. I don't like the demo of I'm with stupid, there's hardly any difference between it and the final version.
Isnt the demo for I'm with stupid slower than the released track?
Bought myself an ION turntable from Currys yesterday. Has AUX inputs and USB.
Busy now sampling those obscure remixes only found on vinyl and hence annoying to play. :)
Very easy to use, though you have to remember to set up the codecs you want to use for recording and playback.
I hardly play...

I have one too, I love it. I use it to digitize all the 12"s I don't have on CD yet (nothing PSB related) and it's doing great. I miss the pitch controller, but hey, it's got a USB plug!
What do we think ??? As only 2 of the tracks are from PSB should the boys be on the front ?? Should it be some kind of "arty" pic or maybe a collage of all the artists involved...
I would like to see some kind of digitized photo of some of the software used to remix the tracks :)

The PSB are in a unique position; regarded by many as an 80's band, and a band who hit it big in their 30's halfway through the decade, they are among the oldest of the surviving synth/electro-pop bands. Therefore, they will step into brand new territory; being old and writing pulsating dance...

As mush as I love the Boys, I cringe every time I see Rod Stewart on stage and think "oh god, the man looks like Richard Dawson with a wig on." Maybe they should switch to producing only once Neil turns 60.
Anyway, I think that they've beaten this synths into strings thing to death after Nightlife,...
after seeing many PSB performances on YouTube, whether TV shows or live appearances, I think Neil lip-synchs more than he sings live
is it his choice or does he have to, what is your opinion
he always sings live on concerts and proves that he's a great singer live, so I wonder why he lip-synchs on...

Neil's not too bad, live. I think he's got better actually.
I listened to Kylie's Showgirl DVD yesterday. She's not much better than Neil, at all.
