I like the Pet Shop Boys!

[financeguy]

Right, I have a confession to make. My musical tastes are mainly rock oriented. Bit of alt. rock, bit of hard rock, bit of middle of the road. Sometimes a bit of country or blues.

I'm not a huge fan of pop or electronic music. Except I do like the Pet Shop Boys. Yes, that's right, the gayest band in the known universe. Well, ok the Village People were probably gayer but it's a close thing.

So what does this mean? Could it be that slowly and surely I will be corrupted by this gay music and start to question my own preferences? Could it be that the gayness of the Pet Shop Boys will infiltrate my mind and cause me to make a bad lifestyle choice and therefore, go to hell, which as we know is where God sends all the gays? Could it be that the Pet Shop Boys will succeed in their plan to influence my mind, just as SpongeBob Square Pants is trying to corrupt American youth with its thinly disguised gay imagery?

Maybe I should call Tom DeLay. Perhaps he can clean out my cd collection for me, replacing all and any traces of gayness with good, clean, honest, straight music. Yes I think that's what I'll do..

WHAT D'YES RECKON?

I love the Pet Shop Boys and was thinking about making a thread about them the other day in the Bang and Clatter section.

Aha! I knew it!!!

First, you want to know why Stephen Frys boyfriend is not at the royal wedding.

No wait....


First, you were posting in a frock thread


Seriously, I like the Pet Shop Boys too. West End Girls and all that. I really should replace my old Pet Shop Boys vinyls with CD. Do they have a greatest hits CD?

Haha...how am I surprised?

I think PSB are okay. Sometimes I get in a mood to be "campy" and they fit the bill.

They're not as gay as Erasure or Bronski Beat. PSB never did much for me though, the English Beat or New Order are about as close to swishy as I ever got.

Yes, "PopArt", a 2 CD collection of all the best stuff. Includes the WTSHNN cover.

Pet Shop Boys and David Bowie - 'Hello Spaceboy'...

 

[financeguy]

'Hello Spaceboy' isn't on the PopArt collection, sadly.

 

[Aardvark747]

Oh!

Still - a great collaboration imo!

I like the Pet Shop Boys, too. Their music is great for working out.

All the thirty-fortysomethings I know think Pet Shop Boys is ultra cool, without question.

At least you don't have a weird weakness for Vanessa Carlton, like moi.

Yes I grew up in the 80's not surprisingly.
