The voices, the tempo in the interviews, they sound like in the eighties. Mental they are not getting old, or they do it purposely. Most people getting slower as they nearing fifty.

What do others think?

"Rubbish!"

To answer the question: As it seems to me, PSB
are on top at present and at their best, they do
not seem old, 'physically' maybe, as Neil recently
mentioned in an interview ...
They seem relaxed and wise on one hand, young
in their minds and interested in many things (po -
litix for instance) at the same time on the other...

For me, they seem more 'fresh', 'cool' and intelli-
gent than ever in their carreer.
I like their thoughts on things and enjoy their in-
terviews. Really funny, relaxed and fresh.

In terms of years, PSB are starting to age although I don't think people age mentally when they hit 50!!!

I wish people would focus more on their music, and less on their age. PSB just made their best album in 13 years. I'm so fed up and tired with radio stations who don't play a certain artist because of their age, or album reviewers who use the age argument to slag off an album. Just don't.

Neil and Chris are two very talented musicians, with an impressive career, who continue to deliver fantastic pop songs. That's all I need to know. I'm just not interested in the progress of Neil's balding or whatever.

there is nothing wrong with the PSB, its just that todays culture is so youth obsessed in relation to music that if you are past 17 you are considered pretty much over and done with.
