[quote="weirdalfan1980"]I got a better idea, lets find these bastards responsible, put them all in a room and use the flame thrower. Maybe we can all stone them.[/quote]

yeah, why not, two wrongs and all that...why stop there, we could record it and put it on video as a lesson to all...and if you ain't with us, chuck them in too...forget about all the innocent Iraqi's bombed out of existence or those that have had their homes turned into a furnace but hey, they had it coming to them, tough love, eh?

Honestly...

tut-tut :roll:

Like they do with women (about the stone).

"It´s fundamental that we do only exist in our own universe. When you like Pet Shop Boys, you are in our world. This is absolutely crucial to our entire outlook...what we do has an incredibly strong identity and applies only to us. It´s a case of not recognising the existence of anybody else!". Neil Tennant.

I can't agree with you more but they don't show us who they are just like the IRA, How can you reason or punish scum with no face? They are the lowest of the low and are part of NO religion AT ALL. :evil:

Too late Steve. They wrote Violence.
But concerning this, I know what you mean. This basically has nothing to do with PSB.

"Kings Cross" on the other hand has several lines that bear a huge coincidence to a disaster at Kings Cross station.

i don't like all those remakes if artists repeat themselves. if at all they should write siomething completely new. but why? at least i want them ending up like the generation of u2. king's cross is a masterpice itself and i can't forget all those people clapping along to it during the discover tour. everytime i see that i've got a special feeling inside of me. in my view this really is one of the best songs they've ever written so far and i don't want another and new song sounding like a repetition of it.

I don' think they'll release it as a single (or should), but it will definitely make the setlist of their next tour now!

none of the songs mentioned are especially good as a single?

people wanted Candle In The Wind cos it was a strong song and Elton is very popular

As much as I love London as an LP track, it doesnt seem to fit the events. It describes people moving to london out of desperation in their homeland ... in some ways it was a compassionate song about their motivation but not about violance?.... while the terrorists attacks were more about misdirected Londoners with angst?
