Most overrated PSB song

[y3potential]

Being Boring is overrated, as is Behaviour. If I had read about BB and never heard it, there would be disappointment upon first listening. It’s not some world changing event or even that catchy. It’s not a very PSB sounding track. It’s very wistful and light.
I really like BB, but I wouldn’t even suggest it as a track to listen to for a new fan.

Although it's not a favourite of mine either, I do feel it's gained a certain poignant relevance with Neil & Chris and fans as the years have gone by... I believe we can all relate to the lyrics in some way..

Heart. It’s Heart. If you gave a non fan a list of all their singles and asked them to pick the four number ones, no-one would pick Heart.

... except Heart arguably has one of the most memorable video clips, so maybe they would?

I think Heart has heavyest rotation at MTV 80's

The thing about Heart is that the middle section features one the of greatest chord changes in the entire history of pop music.

So it’s underrated?

100% - it is definitely the "forgotten" #1 PSB single.

I suspect (and I think this about Always on my mind too) that its sentimental simplicity touches more than the core PSB audience. What do you do at Christmas but think about your loved ones - maybe even the ones you've wronged in the past - the record is a perfect "say it with flowers" gift.

Same for Heart - it's something I can easily see a teenager buying for a boy/girlfriend at the time as a token of their love or interest in them - and that would have boosted it's sales with the casual record buyer.

Always on my mind
Heart
Go West
Se a vida e

Love etc.

Vocal, by far!

Vocal is not overrated but i don't get the version of the super tour and dreamworld. The original version used during the electric version sounds much much better.

Go West and New York City Boy so overrated
Vocal for me is epic and proper Pet Shop Boys banger.
