1986 was such great times. Who else remembers this back in the 1980’s?
Sure do remember. Music like this is not made anymore. 80s were great.
I do. I visited family in Hungary and the communist government wouldn't let me leave and my four year old daughter. It took a whole year before we were allowed to return to the U.S.

I know, Pet Shop Boys were one of my favorite groups back in the 80’s. First came West End Girls, then Suburbia. Later in 1988 I remembered Domino Dancing, then my all-time favorite, Heart.
I hope that they will make concerts again. I would love to hear them again.

Hungary, that is A Nation behind the Iron Curtain. Am I correct? So is Romania. Nadia Comaneci did not defect to the United States until 1989.
I used to hear this "80's dance crap" stuff in the clubs the GF's used to insist we visit. Being a "metal guy" hated it at the time but certainly enjoying it 35 years later. Some of this stuff turn out to be pretty timeless.
NOTHING BEATS THE 80's MUSIC!
Maybe early 90's techno. But I did say maybe
90's hiphop does
@juancarlosvaldes4538
Good music is good music no matter what era you grew up with. You just to have respect for other music not just the music that you like.
So true miss it
Thank you Tetris for reintroducing this classic.
Back when MTV had good music videos
Thanks to the commercial, this song is now #1 on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Songs Chart, and #2 on the iTunes Dance Chart. Pretty cool a commercial has exposed a lot of new fans to an all-time great duo.
Yes you're right my royal highness
That's because we need to turn time back and go back then when everything was easier and happier
I got back into listening to The Fixx because of the song that was used in a commercial. The sing is called "Saved by Zero"
!!
CPS Johan you are so right sir!!
This song hit no. 1 February 27, 2021 on the Billboard/Dance Electronic Digital Songs. 40 years later and it topped out everything in the present day. In some ways the 80s never died and still live today.
Goes to show people that good music does well in any generation.
Your kidding? That’s amazing!!! Truly incredible when classics(especially 80s classics)are remembered.
AMEN 🙏 Reminds me of my local politicians. 🙄🤑
They should just stop releasing new music and start re-releasing everything starting in the 70s 😅
Yikes!!..Really?..Haha. The power of good Music...Go 80s..Makes this 54 Year old feel good..😊
I had this album "Opportunities" and other PSB albums on cassette tape. I listened to it on my walkman and boom box. I've been a massive PSB fan since the early 80's. Believe it or not, PSB once opened for Depeche Mode. The 80's was absolutely glorious. I'm so very grateful to have been a teen in the 80's. Thank you.
Interestingly, both bands are going strong still. I've seen both in concert in the last few years. DM is down from 4 guys to 2 though.
Wow
That would have bn amazing bro
Love PSB
SOUTH AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺 ♥️
The Pet Shop Boys part of the amazing music of the most amazing musical generation that EVER was💕💕💕 so grateful I grew up in that generation🥹
Truth! Love 💞
Amen!
I was a 70's teen and love many 70's songs, but, the 80's ruled in both music and girls.
My wife didn’t think this was a real song, so I’m here to show her that it is.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🙆🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
How old is she? This gem is from the 80’s.
....Who tf questions whether a song exists or not? Strange concept. What made her think this song doesn't exist?
@@cof... it's a normal question what you know not everyone knows 🙆🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
Yes..but does your wife like it? If not, expose her to the pet shop boys..she will come around.
Here because of the All State ad 😎
Me too! 😎😎🎶🎶
Right..!!! Lmao 🤣😂
Yep!
Hahah me too
Yeppers 👍🏼
It doesn't get more 80s than this.
*90s
@@turrican4d599 ...it's from 1986 and looks every bit so.
Im sick of the radio playing the same tired AcDc, mj, Prince, areosmith, Rolling Stones. How about increasing your the variety?
Maybe it's me, but the air seemed fresher back then
@@danielmarinucci1591 I think it was.
From my teenage years to my 40s, I completely adore these two ❤
I had the BIGGEST crush on Neil when I was a kid. Looking back, I still find him adorable. Love those spiffy suits he always wore.
Same lol
His voice is really attractive too
Holy fack. I haven't seen this video in 25 years. Good times.
Absolute classic! 54yo here. ❤ 🇬🇧
Totally agree!….42yo here. 🇬🇧
The 1980s was one of the most innovative decades in music history. The technology evolved rapidly.
Band is making lots of money now with their old song in the car insurance commercial. A person with brains came up with the great commercial, hope they got a big bonus. :D
I’ve got this pitch, right. Of a person driving his car listening to a song about making lots of money...only for our AllState ad, it’s actually about saving a lot of money! Oh, and there’s a singing hood ornament.
@@cloud1641 genius
Now this is a music video
Nice good tunes
لا
And an insurance ad. :-)
And gay as hell, but hey!
And it just screams 80's.
I'm here because it was a HIT in 1985 and it's STILL a hit!!
Class of 85! Great Times!
I played this album and many of their other albums over and over again again endlessly. Such good music!
Generation X here to represent! I recall when it the song first came out!
GEN X!!! 👍😎💃🎶🎵🎶
Class of '86
@@yankeedave - Class of '86 here too! The best decade for movies, music, and TV shows (well tied for the 70s since I'm old enough to appreciate the entertainment of that decade too). Today is all unoriginal mindless mush in all three. Or at best retreads. I remember when Elton John was asked on a late night talk show in the late 1990s by one of the big three late night hosts I can't remember which - he was asked when he wrote the song theme for the 1994 movie Lion King what he thought about the music of that 90s decade's music. He essentially said people had run out of original writing talent. He was so right over 20 years ago. Notice the increase in popularity of company marketing teams using classic songs in their ads - specifically around the Big 80s! Nobody can write melodies anymore. Elton saw it coming too. We now have an entire generation who grew up with simpleton thinking computers doing their "music" for them and they couldn't write a melody on sheet paper if their lives depended on it. Hell most probably couldn't even read a basic piano lesson sheet and play it.
@@Nfarce The Truth
Another genXer who loves her 70s and 80s music 🎶❤️❤️😎
Hearing this song in the All-State ad reminded me of how great the PSB are. I still have my cassette tapes of them from high school. Good memories of great music. This song & Peter Gabriel's Big Time were my theme songs as I worked to get tf out of poverty! Happy to report that I was successful.
"There's a lot of opportunities, if you know when to take them, you know. There's a lot of opportunities, if there aren't you can make them, make or break them." You can't buy better advice. Far too few people follow it. ❤
Good group but they weren’t a ‘force’ like Ac/DC w/ Bon Scott or the Ramones were🎸
@@JohnnyangelNIU no comparison because they aren't in the same genre, wouldn't even have the same audience. That's like comparing Marilyn Manson & Garth Brooks.
Thumbs up these mid 80s electronica pop songs. Such a unique sound.
Absolutely 💯 %adore these guys love em to bits they got a lot of talent and do fantastic songs
..love em...especially Chris lowe he,s 😍 gorgeous xxx
If you want to experience it again, check out retrowave bands like Lazerhawk and especially Scandroid.
@@melaniemason4049d
I’m here because of both the Allstate commercial and the song. It was a song I liked, but forgot about til Allstate juggled my memory. 🥰
Almost 30 years old, I can't believe this. This was the best Funky POP ever.
i know, right! They as a band are frigging older than me altogether!
This song has been stuck in my head since the Super Bowl ad.
I know the feeling 😂
Could be worse. Could be a funeral song..
Ikr! Every time i been hearing the commercial i never want it 2 end!!
Same.
Welcome back to the 80s
That Allstate ad brought this song back to the forefront! I had forgotten how great this song is! And it’s got a good message, too.
I posted a video titled "Hand Drawn Opportunities". It has this song.
yes too bad the singers in the commercial sounded atrocious
That guy in the Allstate commercial looked like Craig Robinson.
Bitcoin and Dogecoin in a nutshell.
I Was 15 in 1981 when I first heard of The Pet Shop Boys and they were one of my favorite Pop London groups. This is a great song( 1986 ) my other favorite is West End Girls ( 1984 )They use to rock it all the time MTV.
You didn't hear the Pet Shop Boys in 1981
@@cappaculla I didn't ? 🤔
You’ve aged wonderfully.
@@vaughnwalker1840 Thank you ! Yes born 1966 will be 55 this August.
Actually both songs are from 1986
These guys ruled 80's synth pop.
Amen brother those were the days
They were not pop. That is just a facade.
@Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT and Philip Oakley/Human League
Let's not forget Talking Heads
@Wilt Chamberlain is the GOAT Bauhaus and Siouxsie, too
Pet Shop Boys should have over 100 million viewers at least
Hands up if the Tetris movie brought you here! ✋
What a perfectly fitting song that was! (And a fantastic film too!)
Brought me here too! It's such a fitting song
Tetris is the shit ! Blue scuti never dies
I KNEW this was a 1980s song! When I saw the All State commercial, I said, "That's an '80s classic. I've heard that before..." What shocks me is, this Pet Shop Boys single hasn't got played to death on the radio, over the last year. It should be Top 10 on the charts, worldwide. I'm glad these 2 are raking in the dough, just off of this particular tune.
PSB are so underrated. So much of their work is simply brilliant
Always On My Mind is another overlooked gem.
Genius Like Van Beethoven or Amadeus Mozart♥️💙
Underated? So underated ? Were u not alive in the 80's ? They'd sell out shows everywhere they went .
@@daveyboy_exactly. Fucking LEGENDS
WHAT PLANET ARE YOU FROM. PSB ARE MASSIVE
Brilliant song Perfect band.
Love Pet Shop Boys forever!!
Proper mix. Iconic sound of the 80s. You had to be there
Instantly recognizable because of the original opening music. Perfect. Music builds interest/excitement. ❤ it.
Hauntingly beautiful song. Genius.
Yes I Am
Check the song Disappointed by Electronic with Neil on vocals... him at his best ever vocally
Who knew an Allstate add would revive a song to return to billboard
I love the fact this song is enjoying a second wind in mainstream popularity due to things like the Tetris movie, and it featuring in a popular advert shown during the Superbowl in the US. I always felt this was one of Neil and Chris' very best numbers which should have been an even bigger hit than it was in the UK first time, or even second time around.
After listening to the remix, I swear at 2:28 I can hear korobeiniki lol
"Tetris" has brought me here too.
Long live the Pet Shop Boys
A hit is a hit no matter what century it is. Pizza doesn’t just go out of style just because 50 years passes.
This one!!!!
No but it gets cold
They just find new places to put the cheese in. 😉
Amen to that 🙏🏾
🍕 pizza is played out. Sushi 🍣 is where its at!
They need to do something with those people from the Allstate ad. They'd make millions.
One of the Pet Shop Boys top 10 hits!
Pet shop boys need to be on the all state commercial singing the song...all state help 80s music resurface
I’m here because I love the pet shop boys songs
Pet Shop Boys are living legends
Especiall in comunistic Poland
Still hitting the charts too
@@Deano14397Still amazing after 35 years which is increditable!
Yes they are legends!!!!!
They are in their 60s! Still hip enough for Lady Gaga to perform a medley of their songs with them on the Brit Awards in 2009! 😻
I always preferred this version of the song.
Pure absolute genius from a band that made music that puts today’s talentless musicians to shame
I grew up a child of the 60s, a teen in the 70s, and came of age in the 80s. I look back at each of those decades and I’m very happy to have been a part of each. Each decade had unique and distinct music that I absolutely bonded with. This song is full of everything that was the 80s. I became a guy in the 90s, a man in the 2000s, and now I’m just an old guy with lots of great memories. One of the things about music, is they are tied to certain memories, and that’s just fantastic. I get a kick out of hearing a song and a certain someone, something, or whatever comes to mind.
Did we share a life?
Мне в районе 50, стариком себя не считаю, в душе всё тот же скромный раздолбай, который стеснялся подойти к девчонке, которая нравится, но совершал другие, гораздо более опасные безумства.
И, в случае необходимости, готов их повторить, хотя здоровье уже не совсем то, что было раньше.
@@user-in1gv3zo3s- All true, but time slowly eroded many things. Sometimes I look in the mirror and wonder who that guy is looking back at me. It’s a stark reminder of Father Time doing his thing. I don’t know when it all happened, but here we are. Like the minute had of a clock, you don’t see it moving but it does. I don’t do anything the same in my 60s as I did even in my 50s, let alone 20s and 30s, and that’s ok. It’s just how it is and I’m at peace with it. I still do things, even purchased my first motorcycle and licensed at the age of 61, and I’m loving it. It’s definitely on the dangerous side, and I am very cautious when I ride, but I don’t think I would have felt the same about riding and my abilities when younger. I would not have any fear and would have had 100% confidence in myself. I would have taken to it like the wind. It’s not like that for me today.
That Beat though...It's Funky AF!! PSB always been dope! I remember this video on heavy rotation on MTV!! Great Music! Great Times!!
They are geniuses.
Because of Allstate this is the first song I play in the car every time I get in it... FULL BLAST!! Thanks Allstate!!
One of the greatest bands from the 80's!
JESUS SAVES trust HIM this week!
That's write!!!!!!
Duo.
Yep
Jesus saved collecting the rent
Singing hood ornament, Allstate commercial. I hope "royalties" were paid. Congrats 👏 gentlemen.
Klasse Musik,sie mussten es verstehen. Anders als manche Musik von Heute❤
"Oh, there's a lot of opportunities, if you know you can take them.
Oh, there's a lot of opportunities, if there aren't you can make them."
Still stands true today!
My salute to The Pet Shop Boys.
All their songs are still relevant today.
Make or break them 😂
PSB are one of the heavyweights in the 80's and early 90's. They contributed so many giant hits that left us wanting more. They deserve more credit for sure.
Still making good music. Their last two albums were outstanding.
I always have to listen to this twice because I have so many favorite parts.
Me too!
I love the part about Making money - the illegal....
Keep listening!! 😸
It would not have been the '80s without Pet Shop Boys.
That hood ornament on TV has me here
Me too!
Me too!
Me three😁😁
@@ericbrown5588 same
Me too! 🤣🤣🤣
Great to see Pet Shop Boys getting some much deserved recognition across the pond ❤️🥰
L O V E This!!
One of the best 80's intros ever made
That's why you see all the greatest songs on ads these days is because the '80s Rocked!!!!
I love this....I've been humming this for days...since the Allstate Commercial.
I'm rediscovering their catalog. Will be requesting for the DJ's at all of the business mixers to play this song! It's ideal for Silicon Valley
HERE because I grew up with the Sensational 80'ssss and all it's Legendary Citizens. Ofcourse all of it's Outstanding MUSIC. I LO❤E the PET SHOP BOYS always SICKENING and so PHENOMENAL Amen.
The hood ornament could never do it better than the pet shop boys.... Period!
If you grew up in the 80's you know this tune. so many bands.
Also, almost always a fixture of heist movies or stock manipulation movies lol. usually the montage part.
I close my eyes and I see myself watching this on MTV decades ago. One of those iconic 80s tunes that tell stories of the times then...PSB masters of the art.
I see myself in the bar with my then boyfriend and his sister. I remember i wished he was singing this to me 😂
Just a wonderful song! It brings back high school memories. One of the finest Pet Shop Boys hits....
These ad companies now are brilliant in reserecting these 80's and 90s songs to hype up their commercials
I've had this video up for two days now (and counting) and I keep hitting repeat!...This song has always been an inspiration for me.
Did you manage to get rich yet?
I was a teenager in the 80s and I remember this fabulous song and so many others from this great group, many many that I heard (and still hear) and I like them a lot. Greetings from Argentina.
So happy they used this PSB classic in the Tetris movie! A perfect fit for the 80s feel of the movie!
Masterpiece of PSB.!!!
I never listen to as the French Say Gar Baje
YES IM HERE BECAUSE OF THE ALL STATE COMMERCIAL. COOL SONG WOOO
Love Pet Shop Boys. Good era for this music. Love the 80s✌
Thank you the best music ever. Can't get enough ✌
Here because of the new movie Tetris! So good! It’s a must see! It’s nothing like you would expect it to be!
Chris is looking really cute in this video, like an old-fashioned 1980s “Castro Clone.” Too bad he always preferred to keep shyly in the background, but at the same time, it adds to the adorability factor.
West End Girls, and this song were their best songs in my opinion.
You are so correct. I love The Pet Shop Boys, I was in my 20’s in the 80’s and the music was the bomb!
Did they have other songs?
Bruh don't sleep on It's A Sin.
@@funtimes5693 42 Songs in the UK Top 30 Single charts
@@pa3997 In fact, they are considered one of the best band in music history in Europe.
in a world filled with evil, classic tracks like this from the 80s really fills people with euphoria and hope.
"Tetris" movie introduced me to this song. I was listening to US radio in 1986, and never heard it.
I have been a huge fan of Pet Shop Boys for over 30 years. If you're new to PSB and like their music, you can call me a friend because YOU have good taste and you are awesome!
One of my all time favorite song!
Seawyatt...they are the best.
I love pet shop boys 🙃
East End Boys, West End Girls
You Were Always On My Mind
It's A Sin
What Have I done to deserve This ?
In my opinion one of their best songs ever.
It is and its a very despicable story in the song 😂
the 80's best pop culture decade by far. movies, music, you name it, it was the best time.
I was born in 1981 and I remember when this was played here on German radio back in 1986, when PSB were really getting big at the time. I was still in kindergarten, couldn’t understand or speak English at the time, but they were basically everywhere. “West End Girls“ was a gigantic breakthrough hit, then iconic songs like this one and “Suburbia“ (which charted much higher here in Germany than in the UK) followed.
The rest is history. I absolutely love them.
Who remembers this song from 1986? 🙋♀️
I do 👍❤️😎
Not me sadly. I was two years old.
First time hearing it because of Allstate! Love it!
I do.
I was 16 teen when this came out, I been a fan of PSB since then and my youngest daughter is a huge fan.
I love when Chris nonchalantly nicks a bit of fruit to eat at 2.36, that's just the sort of thing he is great at in PSB vids... Like his random little dance in West End Girls
Or his dance at th-cam.com/video/Wn9E5i7l-Eg/w-d-xo.html of the video for "What Have I Done To Deserve This"
Don't ask me how I got here but I'm glad I stumbled into this. Good song, great sentiment, amazing video.
Best version of this song, and the one I remember played at the clubs!!
This is actually a good song to go reviral
The guy in the convertible and hood ornament on a tv commercial made me look this up cause it keeps singing in my head all day lol!!
I freaking love this song ❤️ that piano intro and then the hard hitting synth
Hard to believe this is almost if not 30 years old. Oh my god what have I done!
Thank god i grew up listening this
Since the song first came out, I love this song. So glad for the commercial for resurrecting this song. It’s worth listening to it over and over and over again.
LEGEND ALBUM 💪💪💪STILL ROCKING THE WORLD HERE 💪💪💪😘😎❤️
Wait this was in a commercial 😮?😂 crying in gen x😂
Never heard it before Super Bowl...at first I was creeped out with the singing hood ornament, now I think it's the best. The driver makes it, too.
I am still creeped out by the ornament.
