Well THAT is ironic though.
You've... never... played... Electric...?
Pet Shop Boys Rate. Part 1: 1985-1991. Winner.

Hmm, Springsteen is pretty good at pop himself and that cover fell pretty flat for me.
We´re The Pet Shop Boys" is hilarious. They just needed to cover it. There´s no way that they could have avoided it.

I love that they are paying songwriter royalties on this to someone else.
Ray: What the hell is wrong with you?
Neil and Chris: No no, Eric, go on doing that – did you see Release had five covers plus Japanese edition plus deluxe reissue? Just saying.
You really should. Lots to enjoy on both.
Yes is shit though, Love etc. and Legacy aside.
Where The Streets… was a strange single for me. I had just gotten used to Behaviour and listened to it all the time. And then this comes and I didn’t like it that much. I do like that it’s coupled with Seriously? though.
One More Chance works better in its 7-inch mix for me and I too find that the album version takes too long to get started.
I don’t remember why I didn’t give Do I Have To? a 10, I should have. I can imagine this being a very Chris thing to ask.

One More Chance leaving is terrible news.
The U2 cover leaving would have been excellent news one or two weeks ago.
But to think people prefer it to My October Symphony or A Man Could Get Arrested...
Anyway : top covers by Pet Shop Boys :
1 Go West
2 It’s Alright
3 We’re The Pet Shop Boys
4 Always On My Mind / In My House
10 The Bee Gees one
11 Some Elvis Cover
20 The Last To Die
10000 The rest, including Somewhere, the U2 one, Je T’Aime, What Keeps Mankind Alive, Losing My Mind (their version)...

Shit-a-brick ... I’m back in the game ...
Streets is rubbish (5) … Bet She’s Not Your Girlfriend is a 8 … One More Chance is an 8 ... We All Feel Better In The Dark is a 6 but the BIR After Hours Climax is a 10 ... Your.Funny Uncle is a 10 … Inga improves Do I Have To? ….

Pandemonium, All Over The World and Did You See Me Coming? say hello.
Pandemonium and Did You See Me Coming are two of the best things they've done in the last 20 years.
I have literally no idea how Love Etc goes.
They/them, he/him
Common sense at last! Hurrah!
Oh my, add Beautiful People to those two and you have listed the worst tracks on Yes.

Consider yourself blocked, heathen.
I find some people's dislike of Yes to be a little perplexing. Now I admit that I don't really know much of Pet Shop Boys beyond Please and Actually, but Yes has been called one of their best and was even included in 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.
Yes is their most soulless album by far (two or three highlights notwithstanding), and I hope you don't really me expect me to be impressed by something called "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die".

Has there ever been a longer title for a single than:
How can you expect to be taken seriously? / Where the streets have no name (I can’t take my eyes off you)
How can you expect to be taken seriously? / Where the streets have no name (I can’t take my eyes off you)
Can we all at least agree that The Way It Used To Be is incredible?
