Oh yes Relentless. One thing leads to another best song. Did you know that if you write out all the words to said song & then read them back from the bottom line upwards it tells the story from start to finish the way it was written :!:

Rara avis!
"I think it’s an amazingly good album, I’ve got to be honest with you. It’s one of the albums I feel most proud of. But for people who don’t really know us, and have a sort of an idea about us, ‘Electric’ is more what the Pet Shop Boys are meant to be."
(Neil Tennant, speaking about "Elysium" on the eve of "Electric" release.)

It has to be "Please" and I guess everyone will have to agree with me. That's was how I became a fan after getting it.

Please and Introspective are their finest albums, IMO.

It's easy it's so easy... oops wrong song.

You have to read the lyrics backwards. So you have 2 stories for the price of one! ;)

One Thing Leads To Another - Backwards

(Chorus)

It can lead to another
Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
One thing leads to another
Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
The way that one thing can lead to another
and, oh my god, look you have just discovered
The way that one thing leads to another
and, oh my god, look you have just discovered


How one thing leads to another?
And Isn't it funny
You like your job
You get a job
And moving back in
Says she's moving out
Then your lover
With your mother
The house is colder
You're feeling older
And your life's tougher
You're in such a mess
You could'nt care less
About the job you're got
'Cause you care such alot
For the lover you lost
And the job begins to suffer


(Repeat Chorus)


And the job begins to suffer
And the job begins to suffer
You're so depressed
You fail your test
Your boss get pissed
With the deaedline missed
Off my back
You think get this pressure
When you turn up late
You get the sack
And start to think about another
So you pour a drink
You think you might discover
What's going on tonight?


(Repeat Chorus)


Need a lover
'Cause you think you might
Who just rediscovered her mother
To replace the other
The club you go to has potential
Someone stares at you
To make a move now seems essential
So you dance together
Like you could dance forever
Drinks are poured
She says "My place or yours?"
You wanna make love to her
She says sure you can
But when you get down to it
She's a man


Confused and alone
So you drive back home
But you're not careful
You go too fast
Policemen flash for your credentials
You're gone too far
You crash the car
You slip into a coma
In the dark
Your life passes before you
You wonder why
Then the Doctor says it's too late
They close your eyes
Attitudes are materialistic
