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
Sometimes the TH-cam algorithm throws you an absolute gem.
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.
@@fredmila
Yes, I noticed that too.
Do you know if he is actually collaborating, or if it's about that short hook from People are People, that you can hear (remade, not sampled)?
@@micke_mango I don't know
You've just described Ladytron. Who sounded like this years ago.
Yep good spot @@micke_mango If not a sample, a definite hat-tip :-)
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.......
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.
@@robguttridge6591 aaaahhhh, that would explain it! She did a great job and should rightly be pleased. Thanks for the background info. BTW, where was it filmed?
@@Toby4929 Craig, other commenters have recognized the location as East London, next to the Thames River. I've never been there, so I couldn't say.
@@robguttridge6591 I wasn't sure if it was London or Hamburg.
Absolutely. Turns it from absolutely fabulous to GOAT
The best use of roller skates in a music video since "Wired for Sound" by Cliff Richard
hmm, what about this one: th-cam.com/video/hi4pzKvuEQM/w-d-xo.html
edit: there's a really nice 15 minute feature of the making of featuring roller skating star Candice Heiden th-cam.com/video/8l2Y0BrsJ18/w-d-xo.html

I'll get my coat...
Marcel, that made me spit out my tea!!
But... The next time you see that Cliff video check out his Walkman, because there is no cassette in it!!
In all fairness, that was probably a blessing in disguise! 😉🇬🇧
The best thing about psb is they never cease to innovate. Whole album mostly in german...bring it on. Love this and will love the album. Spitfire still sends a shiver up my spine
Perhaps, a sub genre, they could try in Schwitzi Tutsche ?
Gives off some propper Kraftwerk vibes. Absolutely awsome!
Let's hear it for the dancers. Serious skills...
As a returning skater, I totally agree, they are so talented and just look so cool
I got this as a random mid roll ad on an unrelated video, and had no idea what it was. I googled “komm tanzen” to try and figure it out, and here I am.
I love the way that the rain stops and the ground dries out....
serving synchronized swimmer realness skating on wet AND uneven pavement ? yeah I’ll come dance queens
oh swimming suits... I thought they were slimmed telly tubbies
Mark Godfrey to be fair it took till the 3rd/4th one showed up for me to put it together before then I was right alongside you on the Telly tubby journey
Tabby Camburn's choreography and dancing are just wonderful. I envy the production crew that watched and assisted in the creation of this music video: such grace, such beauty, captured and shared with the world.
Where was it filmed do you know?
Appears to be London England, next to the Thames River. @@sarahhempenstall6806
@@sarahhempenstall6806 Opposite the Isle of Dogs, near the o2 in London. maps.app.goo.gl/cXTqvJ4s7Zmbp7DaA
Keep coming back too this amazing psb song with your coment in mind, she (Tabby Camburn) amazes me more each time, you can see the pride on her face. Song and choreography👌
The female form really is beautiful 😍
It's nice to see what the Gagarin astronauts get up to on their days off.
The Gagarin astronauts were Messrs Wrigglesworth and Willgoose, they are shown putting on spacesuits!!!
Honest, the lads are so talented.
Easily one of the best records of 2021.....
Rain should never stop play.

Ok, that's different. Loved it, a bit of electro kraut poppy heaven. And the dancers were so graceful, made me teary. A wee slice of heaven.
Fantastic- heard this for the first time tonight in a Wetherspoons in Swindon
Come dancing.
I love this comment thread for so many reasons.
That was some amazing rollerskate dancing.
In addition to being an amazing song with immensely talented dancers...I think I'm infatuated. Nearing sixty and didnt think this could still happen to me.
On the cusp of 50, and when I saw this 2 years ago I felt like the dirtiest of old fellas, until I realised those amazing women are wanting their talent to be recognised. And so they are!
So orderly and mad at the same time... That's people in one. Love the comments here so now it's love for PSB and PSB fans!!!!!
This is heavenly.
Komm tanzen...MEGA Beat. SO EINE COOLE DEUTSCHE BAND, DIE ES RICHTIG KRACHEN LÄSST💋Super Track....tanzen. Berliner Clubs rufen.....
I've now got an inexplicable urge to eat jelly babies.
wow I just did actually
Freud would have a field day
Lmao. That’s v funny 😆
You say that like it’s a bad thing.
The film grain and the watery twilight - fits perfectly with the music and action - PSB never fail to amaze me
That bit with the dancers in a groovy train, electronic music pumping away, I could watch that on loop forever.
Everything will be OK.
Anyone else come here from an advert? Couldn't stop watching!
Love the sound and the vid!
"Lookout, the jelly babies have found the roller skates!"
What can I say?? Sheer brilliance both musically and the visual concept
would love some stills of this, especially the close up of dancers cruising off at the end..fab filming.
Will never be astonished at the sheer contrast of landscapes in London you can find from one location
Spitfire is beyond brilliant and this aint far behind
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.
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.
I for one welcome our new retro-futuristic skating overlords
I, for two.
Hell yeah!!!!!
Let's hope they bring better weather, though
@@tolhumexy6706 Maybe if they skate backward to a time where humans don't trash the earth? : 0 ...Sorry, for being killjoy. Will see my way out.
Me too!
What a tune this is. Very beautiful dancers too
The moon walk-like movement from about 0:43 is amazingly gracious.

Eera singing in German, PSB and Martin Gore is a match made in heaven. I am happy.
And finally I realize the People are People-sample.
I love how the background gradually transitions from desolate industrial structures, to the hyper corporate Canary Wharf. Oh the wonderful contrasts in East London.
The german voice is so at home with electronic music.
Gets better and better with every listen. Roll on the Bright Magic in September!
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.
Blown away - you chaps are simply amazing! I'll also look forward to embarassing my wife/daughters with my dad dancing when that time comes....
These guys never fail to deliver something different and catchy and ridiculously brilliant. I love it.
Wow those girls have wheels on their feet
Congratulations Tabby and team. Loved this !!
It was such a shock for me to start playing this and realise that the song was in German.Two years ago I decided to teach myself German, in isolation and with no-one to converse with. So weird that I unknowingly happened upon this song from one of my favourite bands, in a foreign language, and understood every word.
It is probably an improvement on my approach of entirely learning Deutsch from deep house (Tiefhaus?) tracks.
@@richdrich3611 Man muss denken, dass das Vokabular davon ein wenig eng ist.
@@richdrich3611 As a native German speaker i really like your Idea of "tiefhaus". :) We actually don't translate it and just call it "deep House", too.
@SimplyReg - If you've been searching for/watching German language videos and/or Public Service Broadcasting videos on youtube, it's most likely youtube's algorithm that recommended it to you. 😉
@@7ren7on But "Tiefhaus" is a good name for a german minimalist project, I recon
Perfect combination of music and motion. Best music video ever. Makes me want to get out there and DANCE AGAIN!
Hutters Missus..Savage. Sick..funky techno. Astonishing movement.
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.
"Now is the time on Sprockets when we dance!"
Touch it! Touch the monkey. It wants you to touch it.
@@geob3963 "Ow! It bit me!!!"
I’ve only just noticed the 4:3 aspect ratio. Amazing how just that adds to the retro feel.
I've been a fan ever since the 'The War Room' and you guys have never ceased to amaze me with your incredible talent and sophistication for songwriting/composition.
Love the new track/video and can't wait to pre-order the marbled vinyl!
Been a fan since I saw then at hulls freedom fest. Go is still my fav
New PSB album forthcoming--rad! Yay!
Wang Chung & Depeche keeps on hitting me....Great track and production...
If you're wondering, it was filmed on Olympian Way, Greenwich.
Thanks, was wondering about that. Had guessed that it was south of the river, good to have the actual location.
Thanks. I wondered this too,
Looking at that location with Google maps in sat view it appears so.
@@clarkadams895 Try Streetview too.
@@carbolic_smokeball Yep, did that to confirm further by matching up the views of the buildings across the river from a nearby street. :) Nice looking area.
Absolutely EXCELLENT. A touch of the Chemical Brothers. Superb choreography and cinematography - can't wait for the album and tour.
I love how they took the dull, dystopian british cityscape as a background for their rather refreshing musical and visual work - just because it was there.
Wir vergessen Zeit und Ort - I come back here and look and listen regularly. A Gem.
This band make such listenable music. Congratulations to J. and the boys on yet another superb track.
It's going to be a long, long wait now until September's album release.
Thanks a bunch, PSB.
Maybe it will be until then that we can all dance together again. Here's looking forward to it!
it's now October,lol
Love the synth in the background just works well with the vocals and musical elements brilliant.
And after not being allowed to dance during lockdown, then being permitted to sit listen to djs but not dance in seats(or even gently bop), for me, this song captured the huge joy of being free to dance again. The skaters are astounding and i have taken up rollerskating (as a wobbling and haphazard 50 something rather than phenomenal synchronised dancer like these women). But the video definitely inspired me to get my skates back on after about 40 years! ❤
This has been on loop now for over an hour and gets better with every listen!
richtig tolle musik , und das video , einfach toll. dickes dankeschön . lg mike
Tune. Vid.
Came to watch mesmerizing roller skating, spent an hour to figure out the location.
At first I was confused and unsure, but now I've watched it twice and I think I like it.
PSB's greatest song yet!
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!
The lyrics, roughly converted to English:
Salty sweat

Thanks sir - the approved translation is also in the video description for anyone interested
@@PSBHQ PSB - Pet Shop Boys. PSB - Public Service Broadcasting. Coincidence? I think not....😉
Those who pushed the limit of exploration inspire me everyday, every season and even trip I think they did this before the trail, before we knew the true risks.
Accidental find this morning and I have played it over and over for 3 hours. Brilliant.
Fantastisk!! Love this vibe SO much! Please bring back roller discos and lycra 😀
Great surprise these sounds! Great song, great video! Curious to hear the whole album! See you soon! ⚡
Evokes memories of my time in West Germany in the 80s.
You roller skated in a tight brightly-coloured skin tight suit? Sounds fun!
Filmed at Victoria Wharf by Greenwich golf range. Incredible choreography, these ladies are amazing!
Love their enigmatic smiles 😃
That’s not far from my house.
From Neu! soundalikes to New Order soundalikes...Love it !!
Tickets booked for Brixton Nov 21! Cant wait. Time will tell if will actually end up Nov 21!
delicious sound so many influences. I spot a small dip of kraftwerk also.
Oh man I can’t wait to throw awkward shapes to this at a gig.
"Now is ze time on Sprockets vhen ve dance!"
Love it!! I've always found it odd that not many people dance at your gigs, maybe this will change that....
That probably has something to with the type of audience PSB attracts. I don't dance, and I really don't like going to concerts, but when they visited my country a couple of years ago I damn well went. But I didn't dance :-)
Seen them 4 times always Dance 😘
I danced at Belfast big weekend festival, and when I've seen them and we're hemmed in the stalls I'm still up! (Sorry if you're behind me) 😁
Super"🏵️💖✌️👍🌻
It's official - few things look cooler then a moonwalk on roller skates!
1000x times better live!
What great song with so many roots and probably a hidden hommage to "Woman, take in your arms, rock your Baby!".
I didn't realise how much I missed skating, or at least seeing others skate. I hope this bodes a return to wheels! Love the music too.
Hard to believe that this is by the same guys who made "All Out". Excellent stuff, and brilliant live.
I like the pink one 😊
PSB meets Kraftwerk, meets New Order, meets Legs & Co (showing my age there)? But, smarty arse comments aside I'm liking v much indeed. Glad melody is alive and well with you guys. Fabulous! ❤️
As a huge fan of Kraftwerk, exactly what I was thinking. The great descendants of the guys from Düsseldorf city !
Depeche mode with people are people and human league with susanne and Joanne only
@@gman7159 Thanks, I was trying to remember what that ditty was from, you're right, it is Depeche Mode.
Ditto 👍
Meets Propaganda?
Visually, some touches of Daft Punk & OK Go, a few wisps of Depeche Mode in the sound... What's not to like? _Go!_ is still my favourite (gets played often) but this ranks a close 2nd (with every other track they've played).
Yes. Visuals definitely reminded me of OK Go’s “I won’t let you down”.
Depeche Mode you say, then you font be surprised to know that Martin Gore has been given a writing credit!
RAM Era Daft Punk was something that instantly sprung to mind! it's incredible
@@davidstewart9463 Yep. Guitar riff from People Are People apparently!
The visual costuming, just sheer German-ness of it, plus the whole women in strange uniforms doing stuff in sync also directly echoes "Go" by Chemical Brothers. So it's s merger of OK Go and Go, from the band that made Go!
If I'm still around in twenty years time, I will say to other people that this was my favourite song from this musical era.
Another awesome song, and those skaters look fantastic against the background
Great news there is an album to look forward to in September
Spiffing
Fabulous funky Frauleins :)
Love the simplicity of this video. What fun!
Think I'm gona have to try and regain my racing snake frame in order wear one of those outfits at our next PSB gig ...but seriously guys BRILLIANT!!!!
Thank you for the Cork gig! It was amazing! Hope to see ye again soon!
The sound quality of this song is phenomenal, utterly phantasmagorical. Since I heard it today, it's had me transfixed somewhat, It evokes lots of cool thoughts and imaginations. I LOVE IT ;-)
Oh my god, can't stop listening!
Very retro very 80s I like it .
Pop perfection.
