bet he's gonna earn a fine sum from robbie's album. at least a six digit number. just mention "pet shop boys" in one of your songs and you got a hit.

I hope the PSB get some commission on the sales job they did on Robbie with that one. :lol:

A guy I know recently showed me a completely new My Robot Friend album and played some stuff from it. It sounded more progressive and messy to me than We're The Pet Shop Boys...

I bought his first album from him on the strength of "We're the Pet Shop Boys" and along with the cd he sent me a badge and a Barbie bookmark (!) inscribed with a personal message.

For the first album he got attention for roping in PSB fans... For the new album he's using Antony. Clever fellow. ;)

I can imagine the fact that 'We're the Pet Shop Boys' will be appearing on the new Robbie album would generate more publicity for PSB than for My Robot Friend, from the name obviously.

Judging by the embarrassing lyrics of RUDEBOX i would say it is the other way round!
