OK, I agree with that actually. We haven't had the proper seven-inch version yet neither so it's a remix really... I'm crap at doing things like this, I always change my mind o_O.

That was when people kept banging on about it being the best thing from the Fundamental era and it's not IMO. I do regard it very highly now though...

Is ' This Must Be The Place I Waited Years To Leave' officially the fans favourite album track, closely followed by 'Dreaming Of The Queen'?

I might have asked this before, i cannot remember but in 'I Want To Wake Up' Neils sings ''Songs like tainted love and love is strange''. Is 'love is strange' a song, or is he saying that love is strange. It's always bugged me.

Does anyone think think that PSB would have released I'm Not Scared, had Patsy Kensit not butchered it?

Everything But The Girl covered it as well - around 1991, I think.
Passion, love, sex, money, violence, religion, injustice and death. More on that story later.

Although I brought my vision of tracklist of hypothetical "Best of" compilation in this thread, I'm still thinking that Parlophone would release rather a successor of "Alternative" than that.

"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.)

Sure! Battleship Potatopumpkin (or whatever it was called) was an album.

Now that would make a good title for a single on it's own.
