Experiencing the music in the 80s was an indescribable feeling. The hits, the beginning of the home computer c64 and atari are legendary. I miss that time very much and with the Pet Shop Boys it's like traveling back in time. Great band.

[@FishpondsLady]

I was a young girl and a teenager in the 80s/90s and although I was a metal fan, I also loved the Pet Shop Boys especially and other synth pop bands like Erasure, the Communards, Depeche Mode... I know the PSB were singing about being gay but it was more than that - I'm autistic but not diagnosed until my 40s, I'm female and heterosexual - but songs like this talked to me. Made it ok to be "different". And the music is just wonderful. My mother loved them too. Thank you Pet Shop Boys!

You got that right. You understand nothing. Even if you're too dim to think about the multi-layered criticism of British classism, capitalism and the homelessness of young queer men due to familial rejection, left with no guidance, no employment prospects, who end up as "rent boys" (it's right in the title), rather than risk the dangers of risking w/men their own age, you can't hear the music is mournful? You don't think that "Yeah you do stuff with money and it's easy" followed up with "but look at my hopes, look at my dreams, the currency we've spent, I love you, you pay my rent" isn't heart-breaking? How on earth is that "romantic" to you? What is wrong with everyone? Good lord. That's what he's sacrificed. His hopes and dreams. They're crushed on the ground for mere survival and the protection offered by a largely transactional and emotionally shut down "arrangement" to avoid romantic feelings and real happiness in a world that largely rejects them. The clip is straightwashed 'cos it's the 1980s.

It is indeed haunting. You're the first comment I've seen to at least get that part. While no doubt there's criticism here of the British class system and the soul-destroying nature of capitalism, the clip has been straigtwashed 'cos...1980s. The song is primarily about the experience of young g*y men's complete vulnerability and them often being left homeless and with little choice other than to be a rent boys on the side.
