They're such oddballs! Neil presents himself as the perfect British gentleman, but underneath the surface, there's a very naughty boy, indeed. And Chris, although comatose in public, is a total troll whenever asked to speak! I remember watching Pet Shop Boys' video collection DVD about 20 years ago with the audio commentary on, and Chris' comments repeatedly made me spit my drink. He's a FUNNY man! Anyway, the new song, from what little was heard in this video, sounds very reminiscent of "Domino Dancing". Nice!

Met Neil Tennant in a record company press office when he worked for the old pop mag, Smash Hits. I remember him saying he’d formed a band. I was thinking, “Oh yeah, you, me, and every other wannabe. “What’s it called?” He said “The Pet Shop Boys.” And I’m thinking, yeah that’ll work. 🙄 But he made it happen, wrote some great songs, and is still going strong decades later. Hats off to him. 👍

Oh yes! And then there's "One of the crowd", "We all feel better in the dark", "Lies" and "Decide"! And a bit in "This used to be the future". Chris doing vocals is quite a b-side thing. Actually most of my favourite PSB tracks are b-sides. They are so great in writing these three categories: Singles, album tracks and b-sides. Writing b-sides is very clever both in an artistic and the commercial perspective! And a great treat for us fans! 😊
