Better late than never! I love that there are people still discovering the pop brilliance of Results all these years later. A timeless classic.
All these club remxies of Don't Drop Bombs. Wow. Perhaps my favourite club remxies ever. Really and truly.
I’ve actually never heard the Results album outside of the singles. I really must rectify that as I adore the Dusty collaborations and the PSB were at their peak. Weekend task set.
Rent and Tonight Is Forever are phenomenal power ballads. Dare I say it, I prefer both of them to the PSB originals. It’s such a shame she didn’t do another album with the Pet Shop Boys- but I suppose Don’t Drop Bombs, So Sorry I Said and Love Pains flopping meant that she was probably wasn’t interested. A true shame because as Dame @idratherjack says- it’s a timeless classic and the best PSB album ever.
Surprised they didn't release Twist... as a single, but in 1989 (or early 1990) perhaps it was considered too soon after the original.
I love how back in those days on chat shows the guests had room to have an actual conversation. If they were on say Graham Norton now, they'd be on for 2 mins about the record, he'd have some mad internet story and another guest interjecting and we'd know next to nothing about the album other than it's out soon.
Plus we'd have hosts hired primarily for their looks, unable to ask a follow-up question or show any genuine interest in the artist being interviewed, other than laughing or feigning awe at how they amazing they look, or mentioning their own personal memories of the artist in question's hit/s, as though we are interested in that.
That would have been amazing. I wonder if she was disappointed and put off by the underperformance of the other singles? It's a shame Liza never returned to the dancefloor on record again.
I think Results was an experiment for Liza to prove that she could do modern day music and not just do show tunes. I think the well, results of the album itself, was enough for her.
Absolutely! I love how the single remix was produced by the same man behind Kylie's One Boy Girl of all things, Keith Cohen!
