Hands up if you used to watch Johnny Ball's Think of a Number show.

That's all I can think of when I hear this song.

Dance, dance, da-da-da-da-dance to disco...

I think it was about this time I sort of start to put a little distance between myself and remixes. But the MK mixes were memorable, if nothing else.

This mix unlocked Dancing Star for me. Feels like it moves along at a better pace.

I adore his remixes of Dancing Star. My unquestioned highlight of the Nonetheless era - mixes worthy of Disco.

Trouser mixes reminds me of the time when I started buying PSB singles. I had just started to earn money and walked around Aarhus with these mixes on my Discman. Happy times.

What a way to finish. The Bilingual remix CD was what made me realize I needed to go back and give the Pet Shop Boys a listen because I had obviously missed out. And the rest, as they say, is history.
