Unbelievable! They are totally massplaying the song and it has reached #6 (not sales charts obviously but popularity chart on the station). This station is listened to by 14 - 45 years old mainly and played Minimal craftly but that never made it to the chart!! However they seem to love this song and so do the listeners obviously, hooray hooray

This is why I'm happy for PSB to never have a #1 again.

It's also appearing in a few other radio charts around Europe. Check out
http://www.lanet.lv/misc/charts/search.html and search for 'Pet Shop Boys In Private' and you get about 7 or 8 charts returned. Minimal is doing quite well in a few places as well.

So, the inclusion of In Private on the Minimal CDS wasn´t this terrible thing for wich everybody was angry about...I don´t remember any other b-side working on charts better than the main song on the past!

You have a point... - But fan interest (having all new B-sides on cd) and record company interest sometimes conflict...

I agree!
And In Brazil, In Private is being playing more than Minimal as well!
Actually many PSB B-sides in the past had a lot or ariplay, specially on the North region of Brazil.
Some examples:
1 - Was that what it was (the most played B-sides from all time and radio stations keep playing it 'til now!!!)
2 - I get excited (you get excited too)
3 - Don Juan
4 - Bet she's not your girffriend
5 - The boy who couldn't keep his clothes on
6 - (and now) In Private!!! (by the way, I like the Stuart's 7")
