  • @betancore1971; Sad the amount of anger and hatred in people. Very sad indeed.

  • top music guys keep it up

  • Kickass fan. Not past tense. These guys really KNOW how to make kick ass music...

    New single release end of Oct 2010

  • Pet Shop Boys RULES FOREVER !!!!

  • I like this song! It feels great to reminisce my teen years during the 80s. 80's sounds rules!! I wish I could turn back the clock!

  • i like all songs of them ,great lyrics ,great voice,great music ,and great videos more than that great sense of humer goes through all of pet shop boys songs ,dear guys you could do more as before i wish u luck and god bless u pet shop boys and thanks for uploading litesoundcameraction thank you very much .

  • To hell with sub developments in particular, they are cancerous growths on the ass of society.

  • Instant fave,man!

  • love it u'll have to get in to the beat thats the problem(:)

  • "I only wanted something else to do but hang-around"

    Genius lyrics. No wonder we have young kids being vandals, on drugs, or joining gangs. Nothing much to do in a suburban home but TV & computers except the ocassional stroll in the park. You just have to make do of what you got. :(

  • I grew-up in the '80s & I'm only realizing now the depth & meaning of this song.

    The suburban sprawl was a result of the industrialization of America and the population growth right after WWII. But somehow the suburbia we've come to love has further isolated us as human beings. The suburbs, lacking public transport is far from the city & far from nature. It fails in the social aspect of man.

  • When was the last time you've seen a neighbor talk to each other or a parade being held in the suburb? None! In the suburbs, you always need a car to go to the nearest store or cafe. Not very good for human interaction. This song is as relevant today as it was over 20 years ago with the home foreclosures we see today. Very prophetic- the genius of Petshop Boys.

  • I bought their first album on cassette tape on holiday in Malta! God, I was barely in double digits!!

  • My favourite psb track Goin to see them jn Blackpool this summer Should be a top gig

  • Neal Tenant is such a fucking talented singer, as well as Boy George.

  • At 44 to 46 seconds it shows two different cars from 1965. I have each of those classic cars!!!!!!!!!!

  • this is my best of PSB...:)

    Suburbia struck me 20yrs ago.

  • i use to be afraid of this video as a child

  • What are you , a wimp?

  • Surprised this isnt on Lynch's Blue Velvet lol

  • unos de los mejores grupos de los 80s,si es que no el mejor,y vivan los 80s¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡­¡

  • tremendos , mabaj14

  • S U B U R B I A (James Holden Idiot Soundtrack)

  • When I *first* heard this song in the 80s, I had a vision that what is described in the lyrics would soon happen in the Boston suburb of Medford, Mass! Well, not only is this pair a matched set of excellent musicians, they're also PROPHETS to boot! For these things are happening in elsewhere, and due to the mortgage meltdown, I don't think it will be long before these sorts of things occur in Medford, as well!

  • PSB rock..though I LOVE this song, it reminds me that ex-roomie nicked my copies of Please and Actually... >:=/

  • solo me acuerdo de el salvador en los 87 -88 bajo las balas pero escuchaba a psb en abc puta que rrecuerdo.....................­..........

  • its the bloody pet shop boys sweetie

    i love them

  • essa musica e demaiss

    adoro ela!!!

    bons tempos!!!

  • greeeeeat song !

  • These guys really knew how to make kick ass music

  • The song's primary inspiration is the 1984 Penelope Spheeris film Suburbia, and its depiction of violence and squalor in the suburbs of Los Angeles;

  • I love Pet Shop Boys!

  • @coolcat03240 ......mmmmm ME TOOOO !!!!!!!

  • This song reminds me of being 5 years old in Reno Nevada and playing in the yard with my older sister!!

  • Why are the British People soooo obsessed with American Culture ??????

  • this is 80's music we were not so well known for our arrogance then.

  • The song isn't very good in the first 1:15, but after that it's great :)

  • think the real version cuts out that crap start....your dear wright.

  • This is the real audio version, that "crap start" is on the original album track. Personally I like it.

  • wtf is eastenders ?  something gay ?

  • Eastenders is a long running British soap opera. At one time, it was THE most popular show on the BBC.

    Funny, now you mention it, I do sort of see the resemblance. But I don't think the two songs sound EXACTLY alike

  • watch

    SUBURBIA BY MARIO AMURA

    it's an amazing video on the suburbs of Rome with James Holden Sound

    let me know what do you think about!

  • Eastenders tune !

  • It's the same thing.The words to Anyone can fall in love went with the theme tune to Eastenders,the theme tune has always been the same,just changed slightly over the years.

  • Comment removed

  • the video was filmed in duarte california .

    and i live in duarte .

    and my aunt and uncle were in this video .

    my uncle at :36 through :40

    and my aunt at 1:56 through 1:58.

    she's in the front with the pink pants .

  • Fantasic song

  • along with west end girls this is the pet shop boys finest hour.

    i

  • did the pet shop boys make it big in the USA or were they not into good music(british music) at the time?

  • Yeah they made it big over there West End Girls was a US No1 and they had four other Top 10 hits over there.

  • CHOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

  • It makes me happy. :)

  • i wish i could be a young boy in that time i like pet shop boys great musical grop.

  • ace song.

  • me gusta mucho esta cancion

  • I don't mean the actual rhythm of the tune is exactly the same, i mean the sound of the instrument is similar.I even read a review somewhere,and even they said the sound on " Suburbia " is similar to the Eastenders theme tune.

  • pop at its finest

  • My fav psb song. Amazing. And how good were they on the Brits. Amazing! I was there.

  • its called se a vida e! :)

  • thank yaz :D

  • Yes, this song was made for the movie " Suburbia ".I'm sure i read that somewhere.

    Does the music in this song remind anyone of the theme music in " Eastenders " ?.For anyone who hasn't seen it, " Eastenders " is a British soap opera.The music in " West end girls " reminds me of it too.

  • The music to EastEnders goes:

    Der der der der dum dum dum

    Der der der der der

    Der derrrr der der der

    But this music does:

    Dum

    Dum de dum

    De dum duddy dum de dum

    Dum de da da - Dum de da da

    So, no they are clearly nothing alike, what you going on about ????

  • This doesn't sound anything like Eastenders, are you sure your not thinking of Anyone Can Fall In Love by Anita Dobson, that was the Eastenders theme tune turned into a pop song (Anita at the time played Angie Watts in Eastenders)

  • Brilliant song - One of my favourites !!

  • One of my favourite songs of all time and without doubt their best song.

  • Wow...amazing track. Probably my favorite Pet Shop Boys song.

  • Great track. Pet Shop Boys reminds me so much of growing up in the 80's...a happier and simpler life!!! My mates dad worked for EMI in the 80's and knew them personally.

  • To my mind their best song without a doubt, glad to see the first in their Brits medley yesterday.

  • the best of everything

  • Was this song made for the movie "Suburbia," it's been so long since the 80s I just don't remember.

  • No the movie came out before it-I do however remember Neil or Chris saying the song was inspired by the film, but that was back in 1985/1986

  • good music

  • knock knock knock ho is It?????

  • To WillBill6942

    I cannot agree more with you..West End Girls had a great commercial success but Suburbia somehow is way better in my opinion, I feel attached to this song.

  • to shanker and wildbill i also concur, this was the best pet shop boys song

  • Though they will always be remembered for "West End Girls", I have to say this was their best song.

  • absolutley fantastic song :)

  • one of their best songs

  • god how i loved them in the 80's pet shop boys was the first tape i bought n how i loved chris lowe...i loved him! there pictures was plastered al over my bedroom then i grew up... they need to re-release that song it's soooo good its better than what's out there now even the video is still pretty good

  • muy buena canción

  • i love this song too, very emotional!

  • pet shop boys are flippin awesome good song weird but cool vid :)

  • Suburbia, where some douche-bag developer short changed a farmer for his land in order to cram many $700K homes into every square yard of land, thus, creating the rats in a cage syndrome leaving society wondering why people loose it and become short fused.

  • love this song

  • ha ha ha hoe staat het met de spaanse contessa, leuk die suburban spell, neuken gaat u door en door....

  • surburbia, where they tear down the trees and name streets after them.

  • This song is a masterpiece of Electronic Pop I love it and I think that it's from 1987 when I was born

  • before that

  • WE LUV PET SHOP BOYS WAHOOOOO!!!

    NAGYON JÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓ!!!!!!! :)))))

  • classic......

  • great song!

  • BECAUSE I LIKE WHAT ELSE !

    TECKMASSE

  • the beginning of this song is like the song´s alf. jajjajaj who was the first? i love pet shop boys

  • Brought back memories of being raised in the San Fernando Valley where it was filmed. Back in the 1980s, I was so taken by the mantel scene w/ the photo of the pug, because we owned a pug, that I designed the fireplace in our new house to have a ceramic pug at the hearth. And there it has set the past 5 years

  • Das war eine der Nummern, die mich an meine erste Freundin erinnern.... Mir läuft jetzt noch´n Gefühl von Verliebzheit durch den Magen, wenn ich diese Nummer höre!

    (It reminds me of my first girl, and I still have goose-bumps on me!) Thx 4 puttin´ this inside!!!!! Sehr sehr GEIL!!!!!

  • Du bist geil?

  • ya no se hacen canciones como estas...de que albun es esta cancion

  • es del album "Disco"....verdaderamente genial

  • i can't do anything about the way genetics shaped my looks, but in my heart i always love british music from the 80s and i love freedom and liberty. pet shop boys is one of my all time favorites (80's, not the 90s and beyond psb).

  • being of indian descent, i love the pet shop boys. while a lot of bnp supporting, council estate dwelling scum say that i should listen to indian music and not pet shop boys, i tell them to go take a hike because pet shop boys beliefs are like mine: left oriented. neil tennant is gay and i am indian descent, so we are both 'minorities' in the majority WASP (white anglo saxon protestant) community. never mind that jesus christ was an arab jew!

  • Excellent song which will never age with time. Great news about upcoming Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. Long overdue. Thank you Pet Shop Boys.

  • I Love this song and I Have listened to it over and over again. Thanks to litesoundactioncamera for this <3

  • this is the better version from the album "Disco"

  • realease at 1986,it was and will an generation hymn,i was 13,when sound it in the radio. and i liked as much as nowadays like 1986

  • what year was this?

  • Felicitaciones a Pet Shop Boys por el premio especial que recibirán el 18 de febrero en los Brit Awards del 2009.

  • Awesome. One of my favorite songs from the group. Great musicians.

  • love this song

  • Good song! I could listen to it over and over!

  • I was on their concert in the beginning/middle of the 2000s years,in Budapest,"Kapcsolat Napja" Koncert!There were cca 300-500hundred people on the Heroes' Square watching/hearing them!

  • I love Pet Shop Boys!

    Good song ^-^!

    Neil songs very well

    and Chris is brilliant too

  • toohunk4u any song of those bands are unbelievle. From 1980 till 1986 aproximetly the music in UK was amazing. Comparated nowadays its a crap,only save it people as paul weller,artic monkeys,libertines...and a few more bands...

  • LOL...including PSB!! (they only started becoming successful in 1986!)

  • suburban hell. That's most of the UK, init?

  • LOL...about 80% I would guess at yeh...but there are still unspoilt English villages and small towns if you look close enough. Where scum and assylum seekers can't afford. Places in Hampshire and Berkshire where intend to settle, if not, I'm staying abroad!!!

  • ..It's really awesome..reminds me of my high school life..those wr the days..

  • SUBURBIA-petshop boys, FEELS LIKE HEAVEN-fiction factory, GHOST IN YOU-psychedelic furs, SECRET-o.m.d, WISHINGFUL THINKING-china crisis, are my fave songs for the 80's.... nice rottweilers in this video...

  • buenisimo buena combianacion de voz e instrumentales

  • I was grown up in the 80's and can't live without PSB.. The unmistakable voice from Neil Tennant is amazing

  • what year was this can any 1 tell me it was the 80s but what year please?? :)

    amazin tune well done petshop boya u r legends x

  • 1986

  • Excellente song!!!Pet Shop Boys one of the greatest band of the world!!!!

  • neil tennant has created 2 of the most succesful of 80 (suburbia) and 90 (being bored). Only for that 2 songs its one of the genius and biggest man of tecno-rock. No matter the other songs...

  • bilicana, you forgot west end girls lol!

  • god save the pet shop boys!!!!! thanks youtube for post it!!!!

  • GOD save the West, because only in the West we have great suburbias to sing a great song like that from Pet Shop Boys!

  • grande canzone

  • Very funny, have a look around 2:50 : on the television you can see the video of 'Opportunities (second version)'.

    Great song, great group, and best of all, most of their songs are really great.

  • Preciosa canción,cargada de buenos recuerdos

  • This song is what its all about!! I love the pet shops!!

  • I wouldnt call em a one hit wonder. They had #1 hit with west end girls, #10 with opportunities, #2 with what have i done to deserve this with dusty springfield, #9 its a sin, #4 always on my mind remake and couple other top 40 songs like domino dancing. If i were to knock them it would be their left wing socialist eurotrash politics. Their music pretty good.

  • God Save the DOGS

  • i think this is their best track besides westend

  • someone needs to make a suburbia music video about detroit.

  • lol its a similar style to the streets now we know mike skinner took his inspiration lol
