I feel blessed to have discovered the Pet Shop Boys as a Gen Z-er. Nobody I know in my age group knows about them. First heard of their top 80s hits from RUclips playlist by accident in 2019 and was hooked ever since. They are amazing in every decade. I hope I get to see them live before they retire. Cheers from America ❤
I felt the same at 1999 when everybody of my age listened Britney Spears, Nsync, Backstreet Boys but I enjoyed PSB, New Order, Depeche Mode music. But dont feel alone, with social media you can conect with every PSB fans no matter time or distance. :)
I discovered them in the early 90’s when I was in 5th grade back in Eastern Europe. Go west was such a masterpiece. A few years later I did go west. I’ve been in the USA for 28 years now. Boy time flies. Cheers PSB
It's Official! *_Nonetheless_** is Number 2 in the UK!* Awesome debut! Congratulations Neil & Chris!!! (Number 1 in Scotland and Number 3 in Australia!)
When I was growing up in Greece, in the late 1980s - early 1990s, Neil's lyric representations of being gay offered me something really special and valuable: the idea, the assurance I might say, that you can be happy, comfortable in your skin, and equal... as a gay person. This "lesson" was very indirect and non pedantic, still extremely clear and strong! So... A 51 year old New Athens Boy is here, today, contemplating and saying a huge, well deserved thank you to the Pet Shop Boys!
I'm German (a bit older than you though) and can very well relate to what you've written. In the mid 80s I became a New Hamburg Boy . I guess there are a lot of us New Big(ger) City Boys out there.😀👍
a New Hollywood Boy here. Just enough songwriting success in the '80s to say "I made my Hollywood dream come true" on a modest level... but I was smart enough to keep my day job (hospital social worker during the surrealistic and brutal AIDS epidemic when it was a death sentence. Trust me.., you didn't want to be there This lovely song is reminiscent of the similarly reflective "The Pop Kids".
@@FriendofDorothy what a wonderful story! Thank you for sharing it with us. The Aids epidemic was a tragedy for so many people, families, even generations. I am so glad you made it to the other side! Be well, pop kid.
Γεια σου πατρίδα🙋🏻♂️Φάν απ´το 1987…όταν πρώτο άκουσα το “it’s a sin”,λάτρεψα τον “ Actually” και από τότε κανένας δίσκος τους δεν με απογοήτευσε,έχουν πάντα πολύ ψηλά τον πήχη και είναι σταθερά οι πιο αγαπημένοι μου καλλιτέχνες.Έχω πάει σε πολλά live τους αλλά το καλύτερο τους ήταν εδώ στην Αθήνα πρόπερσι στην πλατεία νερού.
..and I'm 61, just back from seeing them again at Co-op Live. Simply stunning and Chris had to mouth "we should go" to Neil as they just didn't want to leave the stage. Stunning..
I have listened to this song three times, headphones on, lost in the rhythm. Every single time I get chills across my shoulders and up the back of my head then get lost in the lyrics and become very nostalgic. Absolutely beautiful piece of music and will always have a special place like so many of their songs. Just fantastic❤
First listened to these guys from Actually and the classics on there, someone who was far too young at the time too understand what they were singing about, but nevertheless something connected. 37 years later they still connect in that unique way, and songs like this trigger exactly the same feelings. Thanks Neil & Chris x
Actually is my favourite album with “It’s a sin” - my favourite song. The only mistake you made - you wrote “nevertheless” but should have written “nonetheless” 😂
@@philipkouznetsov3196 True, I'd never make it as a music journalist 😂. I may have inadvertently given them the name of their next album though in the process 😅🎧
These guys are amazing. Still delivering classics after all these years and on their own terms. Have always loved the Pet Shop Boys. The best of the best. Very nostalgic from an old fan.
Hermosa canción...una vez más..componiendo y cantando EXCELENTES !! Tengo 69 años..y AMO sus canciones desde sus comienzos..los sigo!! Saludos desde Uruguay..
What a beautiful song! Thanks for make me smile and cry at the same time. This song remembers me to West End Girls sounds. Love the way you make music.
Heartfelt. I can relate to this. By the way Nonetheless is one of those new records that I play nonstop without skipping a track. Well done Neil and Chris.
Here I can’t support you. It’s not Behavior or even Actually and Please where I skip one song(Shopping and Violence), and not even Bilingual with skipping Electrisity and Up against it. This album is something between Yes(that’s better) and Nightlife (that’s a little bit worse than Nonetheless). In all these 3 albums there 6 songs are able to be listened to, Feel, Dancing star, Bullet for narcissus and Shlagger hit parade - to the trash bin , imho of course
@@philipkouznetsov3196 that’s your opinion. My faves are Nonetheless, Actually, Very and Behaviour. To skip Shopping or Violence discloses that you are not a real fan, just a casual listener to PSB
By the way, this is the problem for me with having conversation to petheads(PSB fans). The saying that Electricity is good, Radiophonic or Integral is nice (no melody at all in all of them) along with It’s a sin, Jealosy, Secret of happiness or New London boy(wonderful tune and the genuine Pet Shop Boys) is insulting for PSB esteem. PSB is melody first of all but not the original style like Integral, Electricity or Love etc(Dancing star is the second edition)
@@omanmc Maybe you are right about fanship. But as I calculated I love and like 195 songs of the Pet Shop Boys and not any other group can compare with them in these number of songs and compositions. I’m too picky, of course. I skip Young offender, One and one makes five and even Theatre in Very- what’s the discussion))
Soy fan de los pet shop boys desde que tenía 5 años de edad, y ahora tengo 40 años de edad y puedo decir son el soundtrack perfecto de toda mi vida, el refugio de mi alma esta en su música. I can say this is the Best Duo from all the time, and I'm from El Salvador, greetings to all of You. I really love Pet Shop Boys.

I'm a Gen-Zer too and i know them because of my dad. Bless his soul
@@Nadys7 One of the good sides to social media :) What music hits your soul is all that matters.
@@Benmeglei1 Cheers ✌🏻That’s quite a journey.
Im almost 60 and still listening to Pet Shop Boys
Wonderful song
Y yo ❤
I'm 64 and still listening too😂
45 here :)
@OscarMemo333. 53 and I still love them!!!!
55 this year .. loved them from day one
It's Official! *_Nonetheless_** is Number 2 in the UK!* Awesome debut!
Congratulations Neil & Chris!!!
(Number 1 in Scotland and Number 3 in Australia!)
It's sold 35 CDs! These days you go multiplatinum once you sell a hundred.
This is a perfect Album. I see my familiar Pet Shop Boys. A 38-years-fan from Hong Kong.

This just brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Neil and Chris.
A mí también..so do i!
I'm 37 and listening to Pet Shop Boys. They are great.
..and I'm 61, just back from seeing them again at Co-op Live. Simply stunning and Chris had to mouth "we should go" to Neil as they just didn't want to leave the stage. Stunning..
Love this. ❤ From a loyal fan since 1985.
An instant classic. Fantastic track that deserves to be a single.
And it will become. the next Single release😊. In November.
One of the best Pet Shop Boys songs ever!!
OMG THIS IS GREAT! Thank You Guys . Im listening above 30 years
Such a great song. Musically and lyrically. Amazing. Like a mixture of October Symphony and West End girls.
Love this, long live PSB, still droppin' sweet tunes in 2024. :)
Reminds me a bit of "West End Girls", it,s fantastic to listen to this in 2024!!
Yes! The elegance, the progression and, definitely, the rap! And with references to London
Definately I think this song is a homecoming song!! Beautiful in every sense of the way!!
My favourite track of the new album 😊 shared with The Secret of Happiness. How I adore this duo, they have provided the soundtrack to my life.
Oh! Agree, but it’s obviosly the second (8,5 out of 10), Secret of happiness is 9.2 out of 10. It’s a sin is an etalon - 10 points.
I have listened to this song three times, headphones on, lost in the rhythm. Every single time I get chills across my shoulders and up the back of my head then get lost in the lyrics and become very nostalgic. Absolutely beautiful piece of music and will always have a special place like so many of their songs. Just fantastic❤
That mournful trumpet at the end is...everything.
PSB. Love since 1985
From the very start they've been superb
Music a mix of nostalgia and memories! Beautiful voice, they are the best!
Fantastic. Nearly 40 years being in my life. Thanks pet shop boys 😊
New 5th Single release in November. Absolutely great choice.
First listened to these guys from Actually and the classics on there, someone who was far too young at the time too understand what they were singing about, but nevertheless something connected. 37 years later they still connect in that unique way, and songs like this trigger exactly the same feelings.

Beautiful songs from this new album just stick in your head like this one
Cruising in my car with these tunes , windows down in the sunshine, what could be better ❤❤
Love this! In fact love this album totally!! Over and over again!!
And the topic of London and boys with a 1980s sound returns again....Sounding lovely....
My heart is full. Am I dreaming? This cut is so beautiful!
Wow… Neil and Chris you have did it a gain….. feels and sounds little as back to the roots. You are still number one!
I'm loving the mood on this track,nice rhythm.
A'la Krafwerk...Expo 2000 😊
The bass in all the songs is so well done! Classic, but beautifully crafted sounds
Que Maravilla ya los tenemos de vuelta otra vez, son increíbles gracias PSB .
It"s about time, boys! Spectacular album! Great production again! Well worth the wait!!!
...... heavenly........, thank you!!! 🎶🌈
These guys are amazing. Still delivering classics after all these years and on their own terms. Have always loved the Pet Shop Boys. The best of the best. Very nostalgic from an old fan.
Love this song, it’s got such a great relaxed vibe to it and the vocals and lyrics are perfect
I'm 55 and still listening too
51 and loving it. Reminds me of being younger and coming out on the scene. Not in London, but in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Thanks, PSB.
@@damonturnbull5903 I'm 51, Europe, Poland, Gdynia 😊
Such a classic sound from the petshop boys love it
They are just TOO GOOD!!!!
This transported me back to my teens in the most unexpectedly wonderful way... Thank you
Finally one that sounds like it's taken from Behavior album, I love it !
Radio 4’s Today programme brought me here, the sound was so fresh it stopped me in my tracks. And the words are breathtaking.
Hermosa canción...una vez más..componiendo y cantando EXCELENTES !! Tengo 69 años..y AMO sus canciones desde sus comienzos..los sigo!! Saludos desde Uruguay..
I shed tears of joy at the angelic voices...
It sound like a great album!
ASI ES, ABSOLUTAMENTE FABULOSO !!! 🤗🇨🇱
Soul soothing, spirit pleasing, body grooving positive vibes
What a beautiful words!!
Wow. It hit me like "My October Symphony".
Don't swear!
OMG! Instant Classic!!!
Now this is just lovely
What a beautiful song! Thanks for make me smile and cry at the same time. This song remembers me to West End Girls sounds. Love the way you make music.
🎉This touches my heart ❤️. So gorgeous! Your music is freedom! Love it! ❤️
This one is so so beautiful that I can't quite put it into words yet, and that's it
Old scool feeling, love it! Now all we need is a new EUROBOY track please!
Cuánta paz trae esta melodía a mi vida.
Pet Shop Boys = Masterpiece
My total fave of the album ❤
Great percussion 😊 love the retro sound of this
“New London boy” and “Why am I dancing” are the two best tracks of the album ❤
I can agree here) But the best is “The secret of happiness” anyway! It’s eternal art forever!
"Love is the law" is not bad at all neither.
Tears! So good. James understands this band. Stuart Price VOETSEK. The have never sounded so good.
Perfection. Best album in years.
Yes❤ loved them at 18 in 1986 and still now at 56.
Superbe album pour ne pas changer j'écoute PSB depuis leur début merci pour toutes ces années de bonheur allez vivent le prochain
Beautiful amazing downtempo ballad 🙂
The view from your balcony + it always comes as a surprise + west end girls = new London boy 🔥👍👌
Neil, you're the greatest rapper of all time!!! :-) Thank you guys!

Good song! Been a big fan since 1996.
03:12 “All it takes is a stolen glance”. That reminds me of “I Want a Lover”. Lovely lyrics.
Thanx guys, love the album❤
I'm 45 and this is the way its like, and thanks to Pet Shop Boys, its the way its likely going to always be. Stay free, just be, psb for life!

My second favorite track from Nonetheless. ♥️🎹✨🎙️
“new….london…..

Throws me into a delicious curling up on the bed holding pillows, feeling my first tortured crush. 👏
Super Album. Ich bin begeistert.
This song and loneliness have been added to the dreamworld tour setlist..Great music
LOVE.
Good to hear they've still got it
Another beautiful but sad song from our Boys.
So looking forward to seeing them in September 🙌🏻🙌🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
