I remember getting this on the day it came out and friend of mine asking me what it sounded like. I said "well, it sounds like New Order-meets-The Pet Shop Boys with thirty seconds of Smiths guitar in the middle of it." He looked really disappointed as said "oh, i was hoping for something else!" WHY? Sounds as good today as it did in 1989.
I always used to think of this as my theme tune. I now realise this is the ultimate theme tune for those with imposter syndrome. Always loved this song since I first heard it as a young teen.
How can three icons from three of the best bands that ever existed do a project like this? For me, who loves them all, it's unbelievable... Here in Brazil, we love The Smiths, New Order and Pet Shop Boys. This Electronic project and this song are timeless. Long live the three super artists
I first heard this driving towards Palm Springs. Oh a New Order song, then Neil sings... what,.#@ loved it then, still loving “Getting away with it” in 2024
My junior year of high school.. loved this song then and its still on my "favorite" playlist of less than 100 songs now . 100 songs i could listen to over and again.
Amazing song ,great performance;!! I wish have a Time machine for can see at Neil , Bernard AND Jhonny Marr...in at show, Electrónic was the best "combination" of the all times...!!👏🤩
It doesn’t get better than this, as I’ve said before on another video. And as a few people have said below, what a belter and absolute masterpiece. Bought the CD when it came out and it’s one of my favourites.
Oh, you'd be surprised. There are tons and tons of "live" performances of New Order and Electronic where they are miming. It's just that the TV shows pressured musicians into using playback music instead of actually performing.

Put it on repeat a thousand times I’d still put it on again absolute perfection ✌️
Look at all those legends together.
Epic!
Anything with Johnny Marr and Neil Tennant will be sublime ❤
Forgetting the lead vocalist here ! Bernard is class

89 Mate
You do know they're miming right
❤
Most beautiful

I get why you said the 90's.....style of music of the 90's effectively began in '89!!!😶
Same
Oh Mr Tennant how I still love you ❤
I absolutely love this band! So excited for the "Best Of Electronic" upcoming vinyl & CD release! 💙
I love Neil Tennant’s voice! 😊
35 years ago! I'm old.
A masterpiece.
A phenomenal song and debut album... I wish that we had heard more from Electronic...
3 LPs is still pretty decent!
3 albums, several singles and a best of?
I want this project back 😭
Me too... One of the best bands
Nah,the only proper musician in this "project"was Johnny Marr.

My all time favourite song. Massive Pet shop boys fan and going to see new order at Leeds arena next month. Wish i had seen electronic live
1989 was the best year of my life - loved it, would go back 35 years right now!
Me too pal 😢👍
Just wait a little longer, I'll build a machine for it😊
One of the greatest synth pop songs.

LOL, that's a hilarious way to describe Electronic, ahaha!

What a powerhouse side project for all. Sumner, Marr and Tennant. One of the best Pop Synth Albums in a very long time.

Sublime
Coolness personified - Neil Tennant
Love, love, love this song, and Electronic!
Lo mejor de Electronic. La unión de 2 grandes de los 80 nos trajo estas dulces melodias

Great tune and top band 👌🏼 My cousin was the drummer in Electronic..Kesta Martinez RIP 🙏🏼
The talented Johnny Marr *sigh*
This is what you call class
I love Bernard's expressions and movements when he sings (well, mimes here)
Epic album ❤ Time for a new one ;)
Utterly, utterly awesome......

Amazing song!!! Pet Shop Boys with New Order!❤❤❤
I love you more than you love me...unforgettable moments
Bons tempos
Amazing!
LEGENDS!
I was listening to this song on the plane in 1989!
When you have a photographic memory, you remember every single detail as if it were yesterday.
I feel the same vibe when I hear Smooth Operator by Sade, I fell in love with it on a plane ride to Italy in 1984

They are great, in a simple way
São tão bons que não me ocorrem palavras para dizer quão bons eles são.
What a voice
Saudade
Dream collaboration
Each one a Master in their own field

Muito boa musicalidade.uma verdadeira sintonia nas vozes.
Electronic were certainly much better than Revenge (Sorry Hooky).
Fantastic... happy days. Love it.❤❤❤❤❤
Brilliant. If we could only go back!
This is the 'Power Band' for people who love niche 80's music ❤
I wish they would get together and do another album
One of a kind.Along with Get The Message and Disappointed,their magnum opus.Loved Electronic from the word go.Still do.
Just loving this song ❤
❤❤❤
I was living the dream in college. Finding out about love, life, few cares and good times mostly.
Oh to be in that studio at the time!
Never thought I would ever see Barney miming!! Probably for the best!!!! Still love him!

There's a top of the pops vid on RUclips on stage with johhny Marr and neil Tennant 1989
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Brilliant track! Superb bass and outro guitar!
Last great song of The 80s.
Cameraman should have given more love to Marr
Bernard summer loved him❤
New order/pet shop boys - pure talent

How in the world is this 35 years ago?
Imagine being in 1989 and looking at the musical landscape 35yrs previous to this, 1954!!
It was a different world!!
I was born at that time, lucky me....not!
Still topsiding scalding~hot fire
🔥🔥🎶🎵🔥🔥
Neil with curly hair is EVERYTHING! ❤❤❤❤
📀💝🎶
Powerful.
😮 ❤
Luv
Did anyone tell the director Johnny is also the band's member?
Bravissimi
Barney is so shy ahhh
They need to bring totps back ❤
Sumner. 2:55
Tennant.
Marr
what an epic line, up
❤❤
What song to end the Epic Eighties 😢
1989...😊
Pop stars were all so smartly dressed in the 80s.
Deffo for when i die.
Great, great song. But it's so weird for me seeing the main man in the Pet Shop Boys choosing to be a backing singer!
Can’t believe there was no shots of Johnny there. What were they thinking about
Pet shop boys
is that johnny on gituar?
Wish chris was in group
Johnny's voice remains so isolated from the music
Moin
They’d be fucked without Neil Tennant on this.
Dang, I wish they weren't lipsynching :(
Would have been so much better if they'd gone with their original choice for lead vocalist - Nick Heyward
Ian Curtis is dancing in his grave
it's not a live performance, it's just a lipsync
Both can’t sing ha
One of the best songs from the 80’s ….. love it 😊😊😊
Deberían volver sin pensarlo,pleasee!!! Goo Electrónic Proyect...!!!👀💪
