Not exactly a fan, but can appreciate their contribution.
Opportunities (Let’s Make Lots of Money) is one of the best singles of the 1980s.
Introspective was radical really, in terms of taking club music to a mainstream UK audience.
Pet Shop Boys
same here, I can appreciate their contribution. I have a soft spot for West End Girls as it was huge on MTV at the time of its release. I don’t think their recent tour was as good as some people made out though, any footage I saw was cringeworthy, the new stuff I heard wasn’t good at all. At least for my ears.
Saw them at the Exit Festival a few years ago.
Nothing special.
Been a fan since Please. Have seen them 3 or 4x over the years. The past few albums haven’t been my favorites… Hotspot was just… middling.
A great version of this
It’s a Sin is probably my earliest childhood memory when it comes to pop music.
The songwriting in Behaviour is class.
Smallman1 They’re old - in their prime, they were excellent.
Pickles remember this, it was crazy actually. They were playing proper house music at 11am on Radio One ffs. They had a guest DJ on every day as well for a half hour, was the first time I heard Sasha. They’ve always known what’s up 
Used to like the brother brown remix of only tell me you love me.

Actually the best PSB mix is this.
Yet another example of Morales’ genius

Ten great PSB tracks all from their imperial phase.
West End Girls, Love Comes Quickly, Being Boring, Rent, Left to my own devices, Domino Dancing, Suburbia, What Have I done to deserve this, Heart and It’s a Sin.
If you haven’t minced around a dancefloor during always on my mind then you aren’t a real man…
alistair yep brilliant
Incredible string of remixers they’ve worked with - pretty much anyone who’s anyone back in the day Knuckles, Morales, Tenaglia, Sasha, Farley and Heller, BIR, Jam and Spoon…

Was the first time sasha was on radio 1 (I think from memory). No idea about coxy etc.
PSBs were probably the first group I got into as a kid.
I love the ‘Actually’ album, Love Comes Quickly, Why Don’t We Live Together, then the Disco album with Paninaro on it. Wicked tracks…

There’s some new remixes of ‘West End Girls’ getting released in November. The Micheal Gray one is nice.
