I haven't heard such an amazing fusion of orchestral and dance since I heard Che Guevara and Debussy to a disco beat.
If they were left to their own devices...
They probably would.
In a West end town.
DJ Culture in suburbia? You love to see it.
I like what everyone did here
LVM y el artista anteriormente conocido como Queque, me trajeron a esta versión
Yo tmbn vengo de parte de quequé
Capitulo?😁
@@arnau9 osti.ass, no me acuerdo, pero eran de los 4 últimos capitulos
Y el flipao de Broncano con la original...
One of the smartest songs in years: "all the schadenfreude it's cost
calculating what you've lost."
Go watch your Ricky Morty andy
@@user-ou1ff6fg6c What does that even mean and what does that have to do with the song?
The Pet Shop Boys have been doing this for over 35 years now, a truly cerebral lyrical group who incorporates impeccable music and melody. I don't know if there's any other group out there like these guys today. I definitely dub PSB a Supergroup
Yes! And with super synths!
"the smiths you can dance to"
I'd say Daft Punk was close... WAS
The were supposed to be just a pop-dance group, but they have the best lyrics of any serious group I've ever heard.
Agreed. Lyrically and musically, they blow al their synthpop contemporaries out of the water
@@Danimal1577 Not only synthpop. They have more original and interesting lyrics that many pop-rock groups which have supposedly deeper lyrics, which was my original meaning.
One of their most underrated tracks but still brilliant to listen to !
That Michael Nyman sample is genius.
Can't stop hearing this song over and over and over again
One of the best Pet Shop Boys tracks. Loved it from the first time I heard it.
I agree. True masterpiece. This one, Fluorescent, , The Last to die, and Thursday just got me right from the start. Since of course most songs anywhere take a couple listens to get the feel. PSB has a way of getting into your heart and imagination right off quite often.
Couldn't agree more!
Yes, and it's absolutely a shame that this one has never been allowed to be a hit altough it was a single. 20-25 earlier this would've been a sure number 1! Shame on today's record buyers (or rather: track downloaders) ^^
Ive followed Pet Shop Boys since West End Girls and this is one of the strongest tracks they have put out. Ever. After the mixed bag that was Elysium this new album is a definite pleasant surprise, and is a triumph.
So true. They've been around nearly 40 years 😊
I agree that love is nothing more than a bourgeois construct
It's just a worn out hollow word.
The most overused lie ... smh
You said it. At least that's been my experience. And superficial as well. I'm totally jaded.
We have to seize the means of love and distribute it evenly, comrade
Absolute wonder of a song. I just can’t get over it. Going strong for PSB at 16 years old baby. “When you walked out you did me a favor, it’s absolutely clear to me, that love is a bourgeois construct, just like they said at university.” 🎉🎉❤️❤️❤️
I can't say how much I love this song. Firstly, the music in itself is brilliant, particularly with the 'sample' of Henry Purcell/Michael Nyman (which really brings that 'bourgeois' touch to the song, of course, hehe). But also : the lyrics. I love them ; they're hilarious and very clever !
@Master Of Puppets No thanks
I love Pet Shop boys a lot! specially Neil Tennant he is a gentleman and cute!
:)
I totally agree: I mean, "Is he gorgeous or what!"
I'm a straight male, yet I have to say: abso-friggin-lutely! :)
"You won't see me with a bunch of roses promising fatality" - now that's a misheard lyric waiting to be found. ;)
still one of the greatest PSB tracks of all time.
Wow!!! What a great song!!!! The beginning is a masterpiece!
But you are aware that's a Michel Nyman piece, aren't you? It's called "Chasing Sheep is Best Left To Shepherds"
Which is likewise based in a excerpt from a Henry Purcell's opera from the 17th century
I didn't know it, thanks for telling me.
Really? 17th century? That's incredible!
The first few seconds remind me a bit of an Enya song
Sociologists' anthem right here!
After hearing the "comeback" hype about Electric, I expected a good PSB album. But I didn't anticipate THIS!
This album (and this track in particular) blew way past my expectations. I am in awe of their ability to constantly confound expectations. They're unstoppable.
Did you know neil is now 59?
Just amazing talent. He and Neil were the soundtrack to my youth in the 80s. Love Neil's vocal performances and the soaring themes. EPIC!
The best of pop in the whole world: Pet Shop Boys.....What else?
Chasing Sheep is Best Left to Shepherds is a piece of minimalist music from the soundtrack for The Draughtsman's Contract, written by Michael Nyman. It is based on a ground bass from the Prelude to Act III, Scene 2 of Henry Purcell’s opera, King Arthur.[1]
That's why PSB are so amazing
KNOWLEDGE IS POWER! x
What's not to like? Love the PSB's music.
Happy birthday Chris Lowe! Wish you all the best :)!
i hope he had a great day
Musical and synth genius.
For a long time I have handled Pet Shop Boys as a crossover band geniously not turning classical music into pop music but the other way around. Listening to Introspective quite a few times has given me the notion that each piece is something like a movement of a symphony. On top of it all, this Purcell piece is the theme of one of my very favourite movies the Draughtman's Contract. All in one, thank you indeed Neill and Chris. God, what an experience it'd be to have a beer with you in Budapest.
Thank you Pet Shop Boys for keeping giving us amazing songs
Pet shop boys is the best
I'm just a kid that wasn't around to witness PSB the 80's, but personally, this track reminds me a lot of "Go West", so it's good in my books. Overall, I really like the album.
And "Go West" is very like USSR anthem.
@@alexpest4234 Wow what an old comment of mine. Damn I wish I was still a kid. Adulting sucks.
@@niteflash06 Agree. ))
"Explore the outer limits of boredom, moaning periodically." :0)
Sounds like a Morrissey lyric. Not like PSB hasn't taken swipes at The Moz before. ("Miserablism")
So present on this 2020 pandemias time .. these hornets cheers up though
This has to be one of the best songs PSB have released in years. Incredible. And they're the real deal. They ain't jumping on no bandwagon cos they built the bloody bandwagon 30 years ago.
This must be awarded as song of the year!!! It's truly AMAZING!!! Pet Shop Boys are the best on Earth, any other singer or group can only LEARN from Neil and Chris. PSB RULE!!!!!!!
The first 10 seconds or so sound like the beginning of an Enya song. Anyhow, this song is one of PSB's masterpieces.
The "whoah's" during the chorus breaks sounds like that Lady Gaga jam
@@Danimal1577 Lady Gaga? Eeeew ;-)))
Clever mix of two the 1980's greatest artists - Michael Nyman and the Pet Shop Boys. I love this...takes me right back to my youth and happy times in the early 1980's. Thank you Neil and Chris and all involved.
Thank you Pet Shop Boys for keeping giving us beautiful songs ❤️💜🎵
I really, really, really hope that the Pet Shop Boys are smart enough to release this as the next single. The strongest song from the album, but also one of their best songs in their career.
This is just pure class
Neil & Chris have been making pure brilliance for over 30 years now and it shows no sign of letting up.
Two of my passions together: Pet Shop Boys and Michael Nyman.
One of the best music composition of 2000s. I saw them in Philharmonic music hall in Washington DC. Best concert, so much energy and they played all their best new and old songs!
A perfect moment for my soul : listen this music; sorry, better my trip over the clouds, enjoying the sunset, at the Atlantic Ocean, in my last trip to Amsterdam. WWWWOOOOOOWWWWWW ! ! !
This album changed my life forever, still one of their best ones!!
Introspective and Behaviour were great too
Viva Pet Shop Boys!! Album ''Electric'' is super like ''Elysium''. Good health Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe! Lithuania :)
Indeed
'Super' is also super!
Do you reckon they read this comment and got Super?
Viva sim
3:01 - 3:46 Best part of this song, in my opinion.
THIS BROUGHT THE PSB BACK TO ME! THANK YOU NEIL AND CHRIS!
PET SHOP BOYS!!!! los mejores exponentes del technopop fino, elegante...escucharlos hoy y los temas del ayer hacen que me gusten mas...fanatico de la primera hora...los vi una vez en argentina y la gente explotaba con ellos...unos grosos...los mejores de la historia y al dia de hoy UNICOS E INIGUALABLES!!!!
Por supuesto...unos genios!!!
Sim amo !!!!!
_los mejores exponentes del technopop fino, elegante_
Yo recién los estoy descubriendo... y tengo que decir que estoy de acuerdo.
Been rocking to you boys for almost 30 years! Thank you♡♡♡
Sean Murphy 😁
love this song so much
Best song on the album by a mile. Just can't stop listening.
Daft Punk, Pet Shop Boys, David Bowie...2013 is turning out all right after all :)
one of my favorite song of all time!!!!!! good job PSB !!!!
El Rancius estuvo aquí.
Mis dieses
What an incredilbe song...I'm playing it over and over again. It would be a mistake if this isnt released as their next single.
How cute - 'Chashing sheep is best left to Sheperds' in a 21st century coating. :)
After all this years you still sound great! Depeche Mode and Pet Shop are my fav band ever
Once again, pet shop boys saunter along the tightrope that runs between the ludicrous and the brilliant. This could've been toe-curling, but it's perfect - throwaway pop that you wouldn't ever want to throw away.
Love when they twist and inverse it all... 'Until you come back to me'. Love matters
AMAZING TRACK
GREAT!!!!!!!!!Can help listen to it over and over and over again...Love mu boys forever
I love you Pet Shop Boys!!!
becoming one of my fav PSB songs!! 3 that synth is magical!
You get so into this song I have to replay this over and over and over seen it at least. 8 times today !!!!!!!!!
Another classic from PSB... great!
Happy Days. Happy Music.
Thanks the PSB's
Pet Shop Boys são eternos.
Yes, that's Michael Nyman. The music from "The Draughtsman's contract (1989)".
King Arthur - Act 3, Scene 2:
