Pet Shop Boys Discography: The Complete Singles Collection

great cd

LOVE THIS PET SHOP BOYS CD IT HAS SOME GREAT SONGS ON IT BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO THERE MUSIC FOR A VERY LONG TIME I RECOMMEND THIS CD TO ANYONE WHOLIJE THE PET SHOP BOYS THANKYOU AMAZON.

Watching Pet Shop Boys on a tv show recently I realised that I had none of their music. I’ve now put that to rights. Great music, fast delivery, music on straight away … one happy bunny

Excellent

Great songs and memorable tunes, what I wanted, but a couple of the tracks skip in places, not ideal, but can live with it

This "greatest hits" album rightly celebrates the first ten years of PSBs, from this chance encounter between Chris Lowe and Neil Tennant in a music shop in Kings Road in August 1981, to the release of "Discography" in November 1991. Even if the first single on the CD, "West End Girls", was only released in October 1985, a first version of it was produced in 1983 and "Jealousy", one of the latter singles of the band in this time period, was effectively written in 1982. Therefore it is fair to say that this album covers ten years of music-making by the Boys. I am not going to replicate what has been repeated endlessly in these reviews, bar to say that these songs are all TIMELESS, and represent some of the best music-making in any genre. The addition of two new songs, especially written for this release, "DJ Culture" and "Was it worth it?" are both very good additions to the PSB canon and absolutely deserve to be here. My only complaint is the absence of "How can you expect to be taken seriously" - particularly the single version which had been brilliantly remixed by Brothers in Rhythm. But what is probably even more incredible is that this first "best of" album could have easily been extended to a 2-CD or even a 3-CD set. There was amazing music written by the Pet Shop Boys then which could/should have been here: the Liza Minnelli singles from "Results", the two singles for Dusty Springfield, or "Paninaro" (a single in its own right in Italy) and so many other tracks by PSBs that didn't make it as singles: "Kings Cross", "It couldn't happen here", or B-sides like "We all feel better in the dark", "Miserablism" and "Bet she's not your girlfriend". In light of all these riches coming from a band that has always been working very hard and has never stopped being relevant on a 30-year period, let's pay tribute to these two music geniuses who, more than twenty years after the release of this, manage to produce "Elyseum" and "Axis" back-to-back in barely twelve months! The adventure continues!

Fast dispatch and well packaged. Item as described plays ok. Recommend this album.

great value came on time

El producto llegó en el tiempo prometido, en perfectas condiciones.

Je suis satisfait de cette commande, le cd est de bonne qualité et à un prix correct. Je recommande

I give it 5 stars for the music - many of my favorite Pet Shop Boys songs. However, it was shipped in a flexible mailing pouch and of course the CD Jewel Case was cracked - please see the picture showing a 2-3 inch crack on the CD case. Thankfully the CD wasn't scratched so I'm not returning it. I'm so tired of the CD's I buy from Amazon having this same issue, please put them in a box or more packing around the CD to protect them better.

Pet Shop Boys en estado puro. MAGNIFICA RECOPILACION. CD EXTRAORDINARIO. ABSOLUTAMENTE IMPRESCINDIBLE

One of my favorite Pet Shop Boys albums.
