Pet Shop Boys on COVER dutch morning paper (AD)

[Ronald42]

And a big article inside, which is very unusual for Holland. It's about the new album ofcourse and that they are back where they started. Electronic dance music instead of the the guitars from Release.

No time to scan it right now. If no one beats me to it I will do it tonight.

Oh hell we live in mordern times right? It's online here http://www.ad.nl/cultuurenshow/article369066.ece IN DUTCH

Very good, but some words are still Dutch! Cap Shop Boys

Maybe I can help you:
Terug naar af: back at square one
Waan van de dag: be swayed by the issues of the day
Tegen het lijf lopen: bump into someone
Graag geziene gast: an esteemed man
Het loodje leggen: kick the bucket
Computerspelletjes: computergames
Heldendom: hero worship
Kwaad in de zin: bad things in mind

Wow, I will ask my neighbor the newspaper. If she didnt put it in the litterbox for the cats already

Well, well.... at least some attention in the Netherlands. Who would have thought. Radio 2 and 3FM ignore them almost completely, the promotion by EMI equals zero. The new single reached the dizzling heights of #64 in the sales chart (mind you: the re-release of Heal The World by Michael Jackson is at #40 this week) and is already falling down in the second week. The album entered at a satisfying #42 position, but it's nearly 100 percent safe to bet that this will be the highest position.
