[Dave w.]

sounds good...

thanks for the info.

are you going to the bayer leverkusen game next week, martin/adam?

[John M]

Wake Up Boo forty times? Excellent, I like Wake Up Boo, that's the one about sunshine isn't it.

I've just had a look at the artwork on Amazon and I'm not convinced, its very minimalist and New Order-esque but not great:



Ho hum. Did anyone read the interview with New Order in Q this month? Barney is going to be 50 this year. 50! Ageing is rubbish.

[Kris]

It is if it means writing albums like Waiting For The Sirens Call

Anyway surely he can't be 50????? I always figured he'd have been around 22 when Ian C topped himself just under 25 years ago....

He's going to be 50 next year according to this site which has a very scientific graph of New Order chart positions.

Is the new album really that bad? Surely even bad New Order is still quite good?

It's not really that bad no...... I just can't get pat song 5 in one listen cos it's just pretty dull.

Just my opinion of course xxx

I liked Get Ready, I've been listening to it again recently. While we're on the subject of 80's electro pop....actually this is the Anthology thread isn't it....anyway, I bought the Pet Shop Boys Greatest Hits at the weekend. I've never bought anything by them before but there's so many top tunes on there.

[Tommy BOO]

I've got all the albums by Pet Shop Boys.
I haven't listened to them for ages but most of them are pretty good.
I think I'll play 'Behaviour' tonight.
