Time for decisions?

I think N & C have taken decitions about the tracklisting of the album (and the order of the tracks), the new singles and maybe the next tour. The thing is they don't want to announce that on the official site because if they did that it wouldn't be good to make some changes (for example with the first single :wink: ).

So, this time Popjustice have announced something that the PSB official site hasn't confirmed yet (they'll wait until the last time, I suppose).

I don't know why but I think they are not very secure about the decitions they have to take for the new album, that's for sure. And also I think they take a look to all the reviews some people give about "Fundamental" (that's why I think they have changed the order of the tracks). So everything can change again.

Maybe they can take good or wrong decitions but is a fact that they are thinking about it seriously.

this post is totally cunfusing.
What point are you trying to make.

These kind of alterations happen all the time with record companies its an everyday thing.
9 times out of 10 any changes are down to Emi not psb

I don't know if the record companies do that again and again. I don't remember changes in the first singles of other artists, having announced before (which it doesn't mean it doesn't happen).

What I wanted to say is that now PSB are going to think a little bit more any "new" from the official site (at least I suppose that). I believe they don't want to make a mistake again of saying something and then change their decitions. I think, that's why POPJUSTICE has given the information and the official site hasn't confirmed.

They never actually said that what was on the official site was final.
I quote:

"The current running order of "Fundamental", Pet Shop Boys' forthcoming album, looks like this at the moment (but they are still experimenting with it):"


So nothing on the official site is the final decision unless they specifically say so.

But they have said "Minimal" was the first single and maybe they'll have to change this information. Something similar has happened with the release date of "Fundamental". That's why I think they are going to wait a little bit more to give any information on the official site.

Everything you say is true, but, in the final analysis, who cares?

Of course they have decisions to make, like we all do (get out of bed at half past ten, phone up a friend etc.. etc..)

I get the feeling even the PSB are excited about this CD, not that they arent about other ones but I think they believe they have something special with this one.

Seemjs to me the original running-order Fundamental will be a very rare item to get even after the release of the album.

nickname, they are releasing 'I'm with stupid' as a single so that Walliams and Lucas can send up Blair and Bush in the video. It must be obvious.

EMI probably see the opportunity for lots of publicity and interest from the Little Britain connection. They are still of the zeitgeist.

It could be a good thing in uk but not in the rest of the world where the characters of Little Britain are not famous.

They have to use Little Britain with a song of good quality.

Anyway, it has nothing in common with the topic of this thread.

At least the poor rest of the world will know who Bush and Blair are, eh?
