14 :ne: Pet Shop Boys - Love Etc. [P]

Chart Run: 14 [1 wks]

 

Release date: 16-3-2009

Format: CDS

Number of Discs: 1

Catalogue Number: CDR6765

Label: PARLOPHONE

 

Formed in the mid-1980s, the British electropop dance duo Pet Shop Boys neatly summed up the age of WALL STREET player Gordon Gecko's greed-is-good dictum and Ronald Reagan's trickle-down economics policy in one of their early singles, "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)." However, unlike most of their companions in the 1980s charts, they proved to have remarkable staying power, scoring hits throughout the decade and well into the '90s, and undertaking intriguing and successful collaborations with iconic pop artists like Dusty Springfield and Liza Minnelli. Their later projects included scoring a West End musical and a 2004 live soundtrack to the classic 1920s Russian film, BATTLESHIP POTEMKIN - HMV

I like the song, so typical PSB!!! But the video is horrendous! Is the video made from the designer of Mario and other video games from 80?

 

I get the feeling this might be a hate chart #1 next week. :(
Varied opinions. I really dislike PSB - everyone else loves it. I love La Roux In For The Kill - everyone else dislikes it :lol:

Brilliant that off-beat pop like La Roux can enter so high.

Though Tennessee's Kings of Leon are a rock band from the south, that doesn't mean they're a Southern Rock band. The Followill brothers Caleb, Jared, and Nathan (along with their cousin Matthew) play a straight-ahead, hard-driving brand of rock & roll that owes more to Crazy Horse and the Rolling Stones than it does to Molly Hatchet. Their debut album, 2003's YOUTH & YOUNG MANHOOD showed them to be an earthier equivalent to garage-rock contemporaries like the White Stripes and the Strokes. - HMV

Boy this is a bad record for La Roux. I think this will be a one-hit wonder becuase it sounded like it was recorded in someone's bedroom.
