Maybe I'm old fashioned and possess bugger-all sense of rhythm, but since the late 90's, I've grown weary and less enthusiastic about Pet Shop Boys remixes. Before I moved to the United States and away from decent music stores, I would eagerly await the new single release and pick up every format, but I miss the days of the plain simple "extended versions" - It's a Sin and Where the Streets... being some great examples.

Thats my two cents worth.

IF they release such a thing, then please complete including ALL the mixes, promo only versions, lots of demos... Further Listening was totally inconsequent.

Well put, the Further Listening cd should've been an mp3 disc with a track listing at least 30 times as long as the one they eventually ended up with

A lot of us here miss the days of the classic extended "disco" mixes...(Pettibone, Mendelsohn, Kevorkian, Hague...sadly this times are gone, but time to time we can expect some surprise...

Nonono, no compromises on this. Can't stand the availability of only 128 kbps on iTunes store. I want proper CD quality.

I think their own remix of I'm with stupid is crap! Extended versions are great but don't go on about bringing old remixers back!

Keep using new, fresh talent!!!

Yes, for example PSB's extension mix of I don't know what you want but I can't give it any more and Morales mix of New York city boy.

Exactly

! and probably the extended Miracles and Tomcraft's Flamboyant, altought I think it´s a un-inspired extended version...a missed opportunity for a masterpiece...

Shame we're not getting a 7-minute Numb extended mix... that would have been nice.

I was listening to the 12" of Jealousy the other day... no dance floor potential whatsoever, but it didn't matter..... it was extended and released on CD and vinyl. Wonderful.
