If you could erase something from PSB's carreer... What would it be?

A song?
A couple of songs?
A whole album?
A book?
A video?
A costume?
A tour?
A whole era?

Hummm... hard question!!... I'd go with Home and Dry video. God! What were they thinking?!?!

Ehm... why don't you make it a poll?

I think a poll is too limited... I want examples of songs, albums, etc...

Like I said, I'd delete the H&D video

The musical/Nightlife era. Spread themselves too thin working on both and what we got was a mediocre album (with filler b-sides) and a mediocre musical. I've never seen it and I'm not a fan of musicals anyway so I'm bias, but I sort of switched off during that era and lost interest in PSB.

Never bought the cast album either and never will, the production sounded dated even back then and the vocal stylings were a big turn off. I'd gladly erase that whole period from their career.

Well you could share additional thoughts to go with your vote.
There should always be the option: 'other' (great title for a track)

Negative threads like this are boring.

A song: DJ Culture
A couple of songs: The Sound Of The Atomic Splitting and Je T'Aime Moi Non Plus
A whole album: Disco2
A video: Always On My Mind and It's A Sin
A tour: 1989
And the film, It couldn't happen here

Same here... of course Nightlife as some good stuff: Closer to heaven, For your own good and Radiophonic. But New York city boy and almost the rest of the album today i skip... In Denial should have been recorded by Kylie as a Duet with Robbie (that would've have been something!)

I bought CTH and never really enjoyed that much... again there's some good stuff...

All in all i found the musical style of that era to be kinda "lost", I don't get the pure blism I get from Introspective on Nightlife...

For me this has always been I don't know what you want but I can't give it any more. The worst PSB lead single ever, that ruined the potential of a great album with gems like For Your Own Good, Closer To Heaven and Happiness Is An Option on it.

Second worst thing they ever did is this horrible, mutilated radio edit of Numb. It's the only PSB recording I boycot. I will not ever play it again and I want to forget about it.

Nothing major. They've surpassed my expectations through the years. Even when they do something I don't care for - DJ Culture, New York City Boy and so on - there's something better just around the corner.
