- The kings of pop: Pet Shop Boys
Live from Roskilde (Denmark)
Pet Shop Boys are an English synth-pop duo, formed in London in 1981 and consisting of Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe.Pet Shop Boys have sold more than 100 million records worldwide,and are listed as the most successful duo in UK music history by The Guinness Book of Records. Three-time Brit Award winners and six-time Grammy nominees, since 1985 they have achieved 42 Top 30 singles, 22 of them Top 10 hits in the UK Singles Chart, including four UK number ones: "West End Girls" (also number one on the US Billboard Hot 100), "It's a Sin", a synthpop version of "Always on My Mind", and "Heart". Other hit songs include a cover of "Go West", "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)" and "What Have I Done to Deserve This?" in a duet with Dusty Springfield. With five US top ten singles in the 1980s, they are associated with the Second British Invasion.At the 2009 Brit Awards in London, Pet Shop Boys received an award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. In 2016, Billboard magazine named Pet Shop Boys the number one dance duo/group over the 40 years since the chart's inception in 1976.[13] In 2017, the duo received NME's Godlike Genius Award. Neil Tennant (27) and Chris Lowe (21) met in a hi-fi shop on King's Road in Chelsea, London, in 1981.[14] Tennant had purchased a Korg MS-10 synthesizer which sparked a conversation with Lowe. Discovering that they had a mutual interest in dance and electronic music, they began to work together on material,first in Tennant's flat in Chelsea, then, from 1982, in a small studio in Camden Town. They say their band name was taken from friends who worked in a pet shop in Ealing, and were known as the "pet shop boys". In August 1983, Tennant, who was an assistant editor at Smash Hits, went to New York to interview Sting.While there he arranged to meet Hi-NRG producer Bobby Orlando and gave him a demo tape containing "It's a Sin" and "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)".From 1983-84, Orlando recorded 11 tracks with Tennant and Lowe including "West End Girls", "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)", "It's A Sin", "I Want A Lover", "I Get Excited", "Two Divided By Zero", "Rent", "Later Tonight", "Pet Shop Boys", "A Man Could Get Arrested" and "One More Chance". In April 1984, the Orlando-produced "West End Girls" was released, becoming a club hit in Los Angeles and San Francisco. On 2 November, it was voted "Screamer of the Week" by listeners of Long Island, New York, radio station WLIR. It was a minor dance hit in Belgium and France,but was only available in the United Kingdom as a 12" import.The quote was subsequently sampled in the song "Paninaro", and further established the band's early reputation of being anti-rock'n'roll and aligned with disco and dance music culture. The 1997 B-side "How I Learned to Hate Rock and Roll", and their 1991 songs "DJ Culture", "Can you forgive her?" and "How can you expect to be taken seriously?" continued this sentiment.Lowe and Tennant have since refuted this claim by mentioning since the rise of House, Rave and Disco, they are not so against rock as stated in multiple interviews when asked about it. However, they are still known for openly criticising trends in the music business, such as casting shows in 2010 or a pop climate obsessed with authenticity ("authenticity is a style and it's always the same style") in 2020.Music journalist Steve Harnell describes them as having both an "ear for commerciality" and the desire to create "something more highbrow". He also described Tennant's lyrics as showing a "love for language", which Tennant sparkles with sometimes quite-obscure cultural references.[89] Their music in the 1980s was inspired by dance music in gay clubs but transformed into a "very British and brainy brand of pop music, shot through with a streak of social comment so subtly done that people frequently missed the point entirely."Their band dynamic has played a role in their public image as well. Early in their career, the duo were frequently accused of lacking stage presence, said to be a deliberate reaction to the hyper-cheerful music of the time, demonstrated by bands such as Wham!. A typical early performance featured Lowe in the background playing the bassline on a Fairlight synthesiser keyboard and Tennant singing, but otherwise passive, in the foreground. Tennant and Lowe both became well known for standing still throughout performances. In a 2016 interview, Chris Lowe said the duo's live performances was a response to the music scene in the 1980s: "Everyone was so active. It was a big party where everyone was having a great time and smiling at the camera. Thumbs aloft! We just didn't want to do that. So we ignored the cameras and the jollity of the situations. Let's face it, it's easier to stand stock-still isn't it?".

There are some special songs that get your attention from the first time you listen to them. And you end up loving them forever. This is one of them.
Same as me, never boring.
A song that I still can't get over how much I love it and its been 30 years
Excellent...
Excelente
The very Best from PSB
Эта песня магически переносит в лучшие года , счастья, релакса и бесконечной надежды
One of the most beautifully written and masterful songs of the 20th century.
As teens my best friend and I used to cycle to the the airport to watch the planes, people used to say “you’re boring”, his mum loved PSB as much as I and always had this on in the kitchen. This song reminds me of him and laughing “we were never being boring” he past from leukaemia at the age of 19. RIP Paul Major.
Es necesario un GRAMMY para los Pet Shop Boys, uno de los pocos grupos que ha creado letras exquisitas con temas históricos, políticos, literarios y artísticos. «Being boring» surge de una cita de un libro de la escritora estadounidense Zelda Fitzgerald, pero también late, con melancolía electrónica, «En busca del tiempo perdido» de Proust. Asimismo, el vídeo es una obra de arte espléndida, reflejo de una belleza y juventud efímeras, que refuerza los versos de una canción sublime donde los recuerdos, la soledad y el sueño último del amor se alejan en cada estrofa recitada como un tren de ilusiones y metas alcanzadas que no volverá a pasar nunca por la misma estación.
Very special song to me
.. I lost my sister in 2019... and we were never being boring... We'd such a good childhood and teenage years listening to songs like this masterpiece ❤️
I don't care how many times i, ve tvt on this but these guys are absolutely fantastic at what they do ❤em too bits especially Chris he's absolutely fantastic at what he does And DrOP Dead GORRGEOUS.. For those of u who just put things on saying they're gay.. SO what they're not the only musicians that are.. Grow up act your age leave them alone
The best song ever... simply perfect.
It IS the best song ever, ever. Everyone should be able to relate to this song, if they understand it, and what its about. Thank you for the upload!
The dream of a lifetime, in just one single song.
Ребята! Хорошо что есть Вы и ваша музыка. Душа поёт!
A true masterpiece
Der beste Song von den PSP. Tiefer geht es kaum.Danke!
Песни моей молодости! Эти песни всегда со мной!
Pet Shop Boys - Being Boring - Classic!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A beautiful song from a beautiful album.
The best Pet Shop Boys Song ever...
Neil and chris let me tell you something I HOPE 🤞and PRAY🙏u dont give up yet.. Your too damn good at what u do ❤️u guys too bits and your music is fantastic ❤
One of my fav songs.♡
Ja Absolut..genial liebe es !!!! , das ist Perfektion !!!
I love this song
im 50 now...always been a huge PSB fan from the 80s .and always will be
Unico Basileiro aqui....viva anos 90
It's funny major key makes me cry...a rare moment that a pop song has that effect on me. And I don't even share the feelings described in here. I'm not a kind of person who gets sentimental by looking back the past....still, the chorus gets me every time, It's so beautiful...there is something very true about this song, like some of the songs J.S.Bach wrote. This also reminds me of La dolche vita by Federico Fellini, my favorite movie. I guess If you poured your soul into it, sometimes it becomes a masterpiece
God bless you pet shop boys
By far one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in my entire life.
I love how Neil is singing this live and in a lower key :) it fits with the experience superceding innocence idea.
Adore this song...🔊🔊🔊❤️❤️❤️
Love this song great music so underrated
This amazing song! Here we are in 2022 since the 80's. Regards from Brazil.
I'm glad they actually do it live still after all these years, the vocals are still live. Unlike so many other boring concerts. Live makes it so real and a much sought after memory/experience.
"Do it LIVE"??? The only live thing here, apart from Lowe's usual piss-taking, is Tennat's main line. where he often is out of tune...
Super show Chris lowe.
Absolutely breathtaking performance 💚
My favorite song ever. Cannot love it anymore than I always have.
We were never being bored....love my psb. Always superb.
que isso música linda demais saudades bons tempos.
ridiculously good pop song
Love that song
One of their outstanding songs
A
They are just magnificent.
Everybody must eat , drink and survive but that's hardly important if you don't share the gift of making people happy! Entertainers are GOD'S in disguise. This world is nothing without Entertainers, some are here and some are missing. RIP. Pet Shop Boys!!!
when you're young you find inspiration who's ever gone.... so real that it's difficult to get away from our reality
The lyrics are so full of wisdom and beauty at the same time! It's so unique...
love this song forver
Really.....i am amazed by the ability of this Duo,in creating beautiful songs, dancy songs with mature messages to them.... i Love YOU PSB
one of the deepest and most tear jerking songs ever made
Being 16 at that time, I loved the song but didn‘t quite get the message. Hits me hard now.
