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.
After Potemkin and Concrete, is it about time PSB did a studio album with an Orchestra. We have already had Left To My Own Devices as a one off single and Concrete is one of the most enjoyable albums i have eve had the pleasure of listening to.
I'm surprised the BBC have not plugged Concrete on...

Urm... you mean in a complete take? Because otherwise, Fundamental is virtually all orchestral - there are, what, two? three? songs that don't feature one, aren't there? I suppose a totally orchestral album...

The e-mail Neil* sent me says it's 140 minutes with extras. :)
Anyone know if they plan to release a DVD for this tour....I mean, they've certaintly released a whole lot of stuff this year and I know that I for one would definately pick up someting like this since I can't go in person...well, I could, nah, I can't. Anyway, sorry if this has been asked and...
Last post
its planned but I'm sure, they don't know at the time when they will record a show for a possible later release of a liveDVD. Assume it will happen during the European gigs and Neil will have some words about it on the official page at that time.
When we talk about Limited Edition 7'' like Minimal or I am with Stupid or Numb .....how many copies exist ?
Last post
as I wrote before: it always depends on the requests of the shops and record dealers. I'm sure 'Numb' will have around 2,500 pressings, cause it won't have that much requests 'Minimal' had in the past!
Another thing is - these 7inches always will be deleted right after they were pressed in the...

I'll buy 'Concrete' & 'A life in pop' next wednesday. Fortunately, unlike Minimal or Numb, they have been released in Spain. I hope that some shop imports Catalogue, though.
Is is true that 'Concrete' is non-stop, not separate tracks?

I'm not sure but I read somewhere here that on Robbie's album (haven't got it myself yet) 'She's Madonna' and 'We're the Pet Shop Boys" are credited as being performed by Robbie Williams and the Pet Shop Boys. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
So that means that once 'She's Madonna' becomes a...

In this doco, Neil says the homo-erotic elements in the Domino Dancing filmclip were unintentional.
Do you think that's true? The boys relection in Chis' sunglasses (at night) at the end of the clip does seem a bit suggestive!

Well, yes... but isn't it a PSB track and not NT track?
Or...maybe it's the first track fron NT solo project... :D :D :D
Well, it´s a Pet Shop Boys track, but the vocals are Performed just by Neil Tennant. 'Performed' just means performed...not produced nor something like that...

Hi all, I'm seeing PSB Thursday in Detroit and was wondering if a few of you who've seen them on the N. American tour can give me an idea of what time they typically start the show.
Thanks in advance!

I really love PSB & Robbie & have bought both Albums.
I play PSB albums over & over again , they make me really happy.
I hope PSB & RW work together again - love She's Madonna & Wer'e the Pet Shop Boys.

"while albums from Pet Shop Boys (Parlophone), Meat Loaf’s Best Of (Sony TV/Virgin) and Elaine Paige (UMTV/W14) will settle for entries outside the Top 40."
Last post
So, it looks like the album will have to settle for a place in the lower top 75 by Sunday.
Don't get your hopes too high, or else you'll be disappointed.
Their albums don't normally plummet from the midweek position as much as the singles.
Curious if the PopJustice CD is on UK Itunes or if it will be a cd only release? Anyone know?
wanting to hear the "A new version of Pet Shop Boys' It's A Sin', in an 'electro style'."
Last post
Well I can confirm so far it is not. :( Not on UK Itunes or any other digital store (so far at least) but I dont think they plan to put it on any digital store either.
Maybe there are very obvious answers to this and I'm about the get 'you bloody idiot, don't you realise that ...'-type responses, BUT:
If one aim of releasing singles like Numb, which seem to have a wider appeal than say, Minimal, is to stimulate sales of Fundamental, then why isn't Fundamental...
Last post
It could be that Fundamental its now going for 3.99 at HMV.. ...and has been for the past 2 months
I think a poll in the official site, giving the opportunity of chosing the single to their fans would be a good idea. The most voted song of a new album could be the main single.

I'm listening to "Concrete" and I'm almost shocked by how well Neil sings! How come he's so great now compared to the Live 8 embarassment last year?? :shock:
At least they got a medley of some of their songs played and one of the DJs (don't know which one) said he loves the Pet Shop Boys and Numb is a great track (which it is). o_O :mrgreen:
Last post
coincide with the European tour in January
Speaking of which, it's almost November. Any danger of being issued with some dates/ venues?
Numb sold just under 6,000 copies, which is very poor. This week, you got a top ten hit if you sold 7,000. So maybe poor sales was the norm for everyone. Is the single chart really dead in the water? It looks like it.

Last post
Very true. Yet the music industries whinge when people illegally download stuff and at the same time, don't put any effort in to advertising or distributing music properly.
Now come on EMI get your act together and release '' Integral '' as a single, nearly all '' Fundamental '' reviews I have read have seen this as the stand out track. I would love to see it double a - sided with '' Fugitive '' another brilliant PSB song. Can anyone let me know how it ( Integral )...
Last post
No, you can't. The third format has to be either 7", 12" or a dvd single. However, why not do like Depeche Mode have done a couple of times – release cds + cdm + 12"/dvd on the release date and then 3-4 weeks later an extra maxi cd that has all the mixes that didn't fit on the previous releases. It...
Integral/Fugitive (radio edit)
Both are controversial.
Both would make good songs.
But neither are strong individually chart wise.
This way the radio air play would decide...take Where the streets have no name (I can't take my eyes off you)/How can you expect to be taken seriously??
And I'd like new mixes of both, so great for the fans!!!
Last post
If they release a fourth single, the most important thing is to get the b-sides right at this point. The dismal sales of Numb were mostly due to even the fan base deciding on to not buy the singles, because the Numb versions were of no interest to anyone, Party Song was considered dire by most...
I've just received a "Minimal" 10-track promo that I bought from eBay, and it looks like a counterfeit to me. The "sleeve" is just a folded piece of paper with the tracklisting and Parlophone logo printed on it -- not the close-up of the tubular writing that has been shown in pictures of the...
Last post
the thing is: after I got the tubular cardsleeve version, I also want the CD-R version (because I got it for the other releases (Ism/Stupid) also. Is this 'collectorism' or simply 'cazyism' ? :)
I'm exactly the same and I am sure there are quite a few of us out there!!
After playing the abysmal Guitar Hero on PS2 many months ago in Game, I saw DanceStar Legends on the shelf in a local video games shop just round the corner from my fave retailer and thought that this is similar tosh to GH.

Last post
SingStar Legends is about to become the best one in the series. Its tracklisting is awesome.
Interesting that Rhino chooses to promote PSB with their B-sides... - I wonder what made them do so? Perhaps they consider I'm With Stupid too controversial?
This CD is obviously just for fans. They've promoted I'm with stupid to radio with a promo CD.
I know Numb has had a few critics and some of the members here really didn't want it to be a single (not me - I love it). With this in mind though I did think is there any songs Neil and Chris have released that you don't like at all - or may be you didn't at first but they have grown on you?

Considering you, it is hard to call me a PSB fan :o I never listen to Nightlife (except IDWYW, Radiophonic and Boy Strange) and Release (except Love is a Catastrophe) and further CD of Bilingual (except Hit and Miss) and I guess I will always dislike them unless a revelation occurs to me in future...
Fantastic night. Show started a bit slow (with half the crowd missing during the first 2 songs) but things really picked up by the time Suburbia got going. Same setlist as TO I believe. Highlights for me were: rent, dreaming of the queen, minimal, shopping and flamboyant. S & G show sounded great...

I think that my favorite was It's a sin - usually it's Always on my mind. I did love Dreaming of the queen, too, and also thought that Numb was very powerful, with the video in the background. I was REALLY missing Being Boring, though.....
