Fundamental - have you heard this before?

1) Psychological - 3:01
The synth sound that starts there reminds me of a similar sound from Jack The Lad

2) Minimal
The pizzicato string that plays around 4:00 reminds me of Soviet from Electronic LP

3) Twentieth Century - 2:36
"Together we're better (better, better, better)" - the "better" reprise reminds me of how "before, before, before" is sung in Before

4) Indefinite Leave To Remain
The intro (before the guitar starts to play) slightly reminds me of The Dancer In The Dark movie prelude
Then in the interlude near the end, the guitars (?) / their melody (effect) sound to me a bit like in Footsteps

I heard also Electronic in Minimal and violins from New Order's Republic.

Twentieth Century reminds me of a song that starts with: "It was January" pom pom pom, do you know which song that is?
Sodom And Gommorah: the chorus reminds me of a song from the sixties of seventies but I don't know which one.

Twentieth Century reminds me of a song that starts with: "It was January" pom pom pom, do you know which song that is?

"It was January 1963 / when Johnny came home with a gift for me"?

New Order: "1963"

Yes, I think so. That's the one. Thank you very much!

Luna Park reminds me of the theme tune to Button Moon.

God Willing reminds me of Darkness by The Human League.

And as I said before. Minimal from *2:24 reminds me of
Kraftwerks "The Telephone Call"

* An empty box
an open space
a single thought
leaves a trace

Yes, defenitely!

I call you up
from time to time
to hear your voice
on the telephone line

I also heard references to older PSB lyrics. Psychological features the line 'baby, baby please', which also features in the first version of One More Chance. The Sodom And Gomorrah Show has the words 'where angels fear to tread'. Those words (actually a film title) also featured in Discoteca.

The whole track God Willing reminds me of the Battleship Potemkin soundtrack, the final part of Twentieth Century reminds me a bit of Some Speculation. The production on Psychological sounds a bit like Time On My Hands at some points. The chord progress in I Made My Excuses reminds me of The Survivors, the drum sounds in the bridge of I'm With Stupid sound a bit like the ones in Opportunities (version on Disco)...

And "laughing stock" in Can You Forgive Her and Casanova In Hell

I'm sure I heard Neil sing 'Redman' instead of 'remain' in 'ILTR'. I think it must be a hint that he's going on holiday soon.

Redman! Watch neil with them icepicks, matey.

Sheesh...

[LoveComesQuickly]

In Integral, the backing violins have a sequence of three-note phrases which sound very similar to those in the latter part of Michael Nyman's MGV (Musique à Grande Vitesse) (1993) - this is a great piece incidentally.

[Pacific707]

they have very similar parts

I'm also available for childrens parties, wedding and bar mitzvahs although I suppose it counts as spamming to mention that. I'm dead cheap actually...
