I think that's a good call, but much more likely to be the Loneliness 12" single. Due to so few pressing plants left vinyl tends to take far longer than CD to schedule.

I can't see or understand the rationale of having the same b sides from Loneliness appearing on the next single, albeit in remixed or shorter form. I believe (hope) we will get 2 new b sides as we have come to expect from Neil and Chris.

They say "Never meet your heroes" but maybe there should be a "Never cover your heroes songs" rule too.
Keep it in the vaults along with other live-exclusive one-offs such as Homosexuality and Philadelphia.

I'm a dude, dad! I'm a dude, dad!

Someone on Youtube in the comments said "If you delete this we can all pretend it never happened, and I promise I'll never tell anyone" and I agree.

We can ask George Lucas if he has space in the vault next to the Star Wars Christmas Special.

I just want a decent amount of b sides, not just one as with three of Hotspot's singles. Elysium had three b sides per single and now that they're back with Parly, any reason why we can't again?

Me: "when is pet shop boys loneliness single released on 12" vinyl?"

Bing Copilot: "The Loneliness single by Pet Shop Boys is set to be released on 12" vinyl on 26th April 2024"

Refers to HMV website, but content must currently be hidden. This is how I believe we are not getting the same b-sides on the new single, but different mixes on a different format of the first single.

I'd attach a screenshot but it won't let me.

I’ve found Bing atrocious doing basic searches, if Bing CoPilot is AI then I’d be very sceptical. Would they release something on the same day as the album? and don’t singles, even in this day and age, be released on a different day as albums.

I use Bing Copilot quite a lot. Never accept the potted version it gives unchecked, what it does well however is indicate sources of reliable information for further detailed investigation.
