For some reason I can't explain Neil always gesticulates very much. He does it all the time on interviews and on stage he waves his arms. Can that man never be still?

Remember he is "a nervous boy..." like said on that song...

"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.

Yes, maybe and then he sings he was nervous when he met the guy backstage in "The night I fell in love".

What are you talking about gesticulates? He hardly moves on stage except for moving his leg every now and then.

Lol! Neil gesticulates?! Well, whaddaya want, he has to show he is not a piece of furniture like Chris and give *some* sign of life.

After all, hard to keep still when you're singing, entertaining an audience and/or giving interviews.. seeing the other one doesn't really do any of those.

Even Kraftwerk gesticulate a bit more on stage these days, so why not Neil :P

The man hardly moves. He just snaps his fingers and moves his leg that is it.

Chris moves his hands, hey. And you gotta see the Glastonbury show from 2000
Interviewer:
-What would you tell someone about yourself if you wanted to impress them?

Chris:
-I´ve got a 12-inch plonker.

I was being ironic psb-freak.

How on earth can anyone say Neil "always gesticulates very much"?! :wall: I've never seen such a 'restrained' artist on stage.

Hey the Bowler hat has done a full circle...Ok Neil is wearing it at the moment.
Nothing outdates with the Pet Shop Boys.
Still prefer the Posh hat on Chrissy and the elegant suit & tie on Neil for the performance for Always on my mind on Top of the pops.
I'm too weak to be strong
