It's this one! https://www.discogs.com/Various-Now...ic-1993-The-Millennium-Series/release/2599916 It's also cheaply available here! Warning, there are straight bops on this one... https://www.discogs.com/Various-Goal-20-Winning-Hits/release/1554916 I think this was supposed to be the original single version.
Just discovered throught GeoWayne website that there is a different version of Positive Role Model PSB rendition Mixers: Florian Richter and Kai Deiner Disco 3 album version (4:02) Also available on one of the "Further Listening" bonus discs accompanying the 2017 Nightlife reissue Mixer: [unknown at this time] "Studio version" (4:04) A slightly different mix from the above, officially released only on the press promo CD Five Titles from Closer to Heaven Looked on YT but I don't seem to find it. Someone know how "slightly different" is this second mix ?
From memory, that mix only chops a bit off the intro (by accident?).... BUT, there's also a demo version which starts with the words "positive role model", and then goes for the sample.
I finally found the Catalogue book for a decent price after years of looking. It's beautiful! If they re-print it I will flip a table I swear to God. We definitely need a second book though.
I watched the Live in Rio DVD last night, I'd forgotten how soft porn the dancers were. *watches again*
They're working on Annually 2022. What can we expect? Spoiler: Read only if you're bored 15 pages of questions answered, including Chris saying things like "I quite like toast, if I'm honest" A behind-the-scenes tour prep diary, with lots of discussion of pandemic-era travel and catering Neil deconstructs the recent Paul Weller remix, and talks about the time they met at Smash Hits The announcement that they're working on a soundtrack to an obscure Russian film from 1962 that's actually 48 minutes of Bolshy deconstructed and performed by a string quartet In Your Imagination, a special colouring section featuring images from tour backdrops Opportunities to make lots of money through further licensing of Opportunities (Lets make lots of money) in still more American TV ads The announcement of a complete singles box set, featuring all versions of all songs, but available only on 226 coloured cassettes through their official web site for £1,210 (plus £310 shipping) Neil's forthcoming children's book, Do I have to? about household chores and the importance of learning the value of hard work But honestly, I miss them.
Watching It Couldn't Happen Here for the first time. I didn't know what to expect, but I definitely wasn't expecting... this. The Always on My Mind section was funny, though. (Am I going crazier or did this thread use to be called "Pet Shop Boys, generally"?)
Our dads did a 3h bopfest Christmas takeover. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0012rsl Playlist for the folks who don't want to listen to the Boys present stuff themselves (heathens!) https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3vPuAznzrN3Gac1B5RX7CE I'm also begging the person who did this to revert it back to the original title. Or else you'll be tried at The Hague! kii @Popjustice @Mr.Arroz @matthew. @OspreyQueen @2014
Nah, that usually comes late January/early February. Also, I wouldn't be scared about it selling out, the last couple were pretty slow sellers.
