Lyrics:
Salziger Schweiß
Bewegungen der Seelen
Hier spielen sie kraftvolle Musik
Warum nicht tanzen kommen?
Es ist ganz natürlich
Komm tanzen
Die Bewegung des Lebens
Aufregung steigt
Die Bewegung des Lebens
Dies ist unsere Zeit
[Chorus]
Komm tanzen
und loslassen
Komm tanzen
People, let's dance
Wir vergessen Zeit und Ort
Die Wärme steigt
Vergessen Zeit und Ort
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Von abends, bis morgens, bis abends wieder
Von Freitag, bis Samstag, bis Sonntag wieder
Komm tanzen
////////////////////////////////////
Salty sweat
The movement of souls
Here they play powerful music
Why not come and dance?
It's perfectly natural
Come, dance
The movement of life
Excitement builds
The movement of life
This is our time
[Chorus]
Come, dance
and lose yourself
Come, dance
People, let's dance
We forget time and place
The heat rises
Forgetting time and place
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
From evening, until morning, until evening again
From Friday, until Saturday, until Sunday again
Come, dance

You're not wrong. The German vibe really works for this.

You are so right. Makes me want to go out and peel an orange.

If New Order and Depeche Mode had collaborated and then employed a German female vocalist and asked the Pet Shop Boys to produce, it might have sounded like this. And this is great

Martin Gore is credited on this.

Anyone else notice the enigmatic Mona Lisa'esque slightly wry smile on Miss Pink? It's like she knows the joke is on us, but we're completely unaware of it.......

[@robguttridge6591]

It is a wonderfully wise and ego-free smile: She is the choreographer who designed the whole dance, and is enjoying how well her team is performing around her. The joy of a plan coming together, plus a break in the weather ... and she's looking back at the camera, with quiet satisfaction.

I’ve only just noticed the 4:3 aspect ratio. Amazing how just that adds to the retro feel.

[@malwill54]

As a kid enthralled by Delia Derbyshire followed by the German Neu Wave (geddit?) through Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk and then some this is a brilliantly worked modern twist on what has been one of the biggest influences on "modern" music. The mixture of Germanic Electro beats and funky dance moves. Full marks all down the line!!!! Overwhelming.

I'd never heard of PSB before this. Instant fan, the mood of this is so evocative. I've listened to a lot of your stuff now and love it all.

[@StudioMagnetique]

What an absolute tune. Kraftwerk influences galore. So happy to see PSB leaving the sample-based stuff and treading new ground. Love their back catalog, but you can overdo a theme. It takes integrity and bravery to do something new when you have a winning formula and I for one dig the shit out of the new sound. Future retro at it’s best, plus it oozes everything great about Germanys influence on European electronic music. Will be coming to see you live. Nicely done fellas.

[@budgetmoss9270]

This is so good to listen to in the car at night. It's got a kind of retro-futuristic robotic, alienated ghost In the machine feel about it, but having just translated the lyrics they are quite surprising. Nice!

[@blcsuperdave]

This is my first exposure to this group. As much as I think You Tube is sometimes pablum -- something like this grabs me and won't let go. It's mesmerizing! The vibrant colors against the drab, desaturated background is sugar for the eyes. It reminds me of Michel Grondry's "Go" video for the Chemical Brothers... but with DayGlo shininess. And I love the song too. Sticks right to the brain.
