Pet Shop Boys - Can You Forgive Her?

[DJofSWE2]

this is the first music video i ever watched, when MTV still was good...

[Metalisalearning77]

When this came out along with "Go West" This track left the biggest impression on me since 1994

[minimalgirl10]

Me encanta, amo a Pet Shop Boys y cualquier cosa que hagan.xx

[GJR7]

1:47 cool (y)

[MrSeththecat]

Weirdy - LOLly video

[mimilolie30]

the song is great but the video is very weird

[phoney98]

no, i DEFINANTLY want revenge! >:^)

[panchocajas]

me encantan los pet sho boys me traen muchos recuerdos

su musica

[boogs2007]

Go away David Guetta! You're distracting me from watching Pet Shop Boys.

They are not as big as Take That but they are still a great band.

Se A Vida E is a great summer track it doesn't matter what year it is it's a Summer anthem.

I actually sung Search My Heaven by Alesha Rome and it matched the background music really well.

[mr867749]

@larsexwow I can!

[Skjolldir]

Finntroll is pretty god damn inpredictable...making a cover of this!? ah well, anything sounds fitting for me through finntroll, looking forward to it

[HLecterPHD]

01:07 wonder if they do that in bed

[nasreenamina]

I a fan of pet shop boys since 1988 and is wonderful to hear this wonderful music.

[PSBHanz]

I'm only 13 and I adore Pet Shop Boys and many more 80's and 90's songs, the video is amazing :) I watched TOTP 80's special and saw them singing West End Girls, I love it how young they were!! LIVE LONG :D

[ijustwannawatchshite]

I'm glad this was made 17-18 years ago. If it was made today with today's CGI it would look rubbish and forgetable, like a Justin Timberlake video. And everyone would talk about how fake it was.

.

This video is not fake, it's creatively artificial. It's already stood the test of time for almost 20 years... here's looking forward to enjoying this again in 2030,

[DairoStug]

One of the best intro in a song.

Great theme.

Bye ¡¡¡

ds

[Strannik191]

"because you dance to disco and you don't like rock". I prefer disco too.

Great song in all respects. I can't belive it's already 18 years since it appeared, how fast the years run by!

[MrDevah]

By the way. Are they gay? Or, is one of them gay?

[Xanixade]

@Actuallysalemslot

Great, you catch the idea. Every man can be a fool for one woman.

Man, you are a genius. This is the only smart comment that I receive till now.

About what you discover, is a long time pass period.

[chrysthyan77]

Don't be haste, I am a fan of Pet Shop Boys even from 1990 and this is one of their favorite song to me. But the idea... listen to the lyrics!

[MrDevah]

@chrysthyan77 You comprehend? Bah

[chrysthyan77]

@MrDevah

Yes, i understand what they want to say in this song. And in my case is about o woman and a man.

Why the gay people think all the bands like Pet Shop Boys and Queen sings only for them?

The lead vocals are bisexual, not gay.

So I think they know what they are saying when they speak about love of a woman.

[MrDevah]

@chrysthyan77 I see. Thanks for the info

[v312ym34n]

@chrysthyan77 Umm. No offense, but this song is about a guy having a fight with his girl/wife because he was in love with a man in the past. There are several implicit references to homosexuality: "changing teams," "going to go and get herself a real man instead," "Because you dance to disco, and you don't like rock." The lines "Ask yourself: Can you even deliver/What she demands of you?" are also much stronger if they are pointed at a guy who's not certain of his sexuality.

[swampyfrogness]

@v312ym34n They are gay, always were, this song is yeah for a guy who would probably be happier with anotehr man , rather then being mad at women (or do you want revenge??).

[dingding377]

@swampyfrogness being gay is not about getting revenge on women

[dingding377]

@dingding377 i owe swampyfrognees an apology this song is about gay men who try to go out with women who try to pretend they are not gay listen to lyrics but i still love the song

[swampyfrogness]

@dingding377 i agree , and i believe that the sone has exactly this message : "being gay is not about revenge, be gay is you want or are meant to be, or .... don't be if otherwise" :)

[dingding377]

@v312ym34n SO WHAT its a great song

[v312ym34n]

@dingding377 Oh yeah, I love this song. I was just replying to a guy who posted that for him the guy in the song is hetero and trying to explain, no, Pet Shop Boys definitely wrote this song to be about a guy who's not sure.

[nasreenamina]

@v312ym34n Interesting point, that makes the song better

[pendejorubio]

I like then very much their music was always amazing!!!

[SergeiMaximov]

perfect



[alexmagdi]

spectacular wow that video make fly awasome

[alexmagdi]

spectacular , i found a lot ofelements on this video on bedtime story video of madonna am wrong?

[chrysthyan77]

This song is about man who wasn't a man. Do you want this in Top 10?:)

[tdwon]

@chrysthyan77. Yes. Why not?

What you say does not follow.

[msvsomm]

@chrysthyan77 Shut the F... Up !!! Yes it should ...

[Actuallysalemslot]

@chrysthyan77 Who says you are a man who is a real man? This song made UK top ten in 1993, reaching number 7. Lyrics are just about a confused person....What disturbs you is probably that you find glimpses from your life in the song.

[daZooovt]

very mistical song and clip

[Akititan]

One of the best pop songs ever!! Y best video too....

[alocohc]

Neil looks georgeous in this video. And the video is just the best.

[alocohc]

Neil looks georgeous in this video.

[PJsmoker]

This song is the best. Forgiveness is the hardest thing anyone can do. People dont let go. Dont realize we are all human and make mistakes. Its awlful hold gudges because its very childish

[gjhhj6y]

They released Very when grunge was cool.

I think it was their way of saying "maybe grunge isn't as cool as you think"

[chauhanrohit]

Luv the song! But honestly, I don't see any art in the video, I find it stupid & no justice to the beautiful song! ;)

But that's my view! no offence meant!

[Esca20chi]

@chauhanrohit  agree

[OutAndAboutBritain]

even though this video is about 7 years old it does not look one bit dated. IMO one of the greatest pop video ever made!

[GarryW05]

I liked this song when i was three and I only heard it again two years ago and i still love it

[calle68]

Can you forgive THEM? I don't think so. PSP will always rule and their music and video are cleary piece of art with no imitation at all. So british, and so global.

[ickdok]

i love this video because it is just totally random and doesnt really have anything too do with the song ^^ :)

[marc2789]

Masterpiece!

[Senateur211]

Ce clip génial est sorti pendant l'une des périodes les plus déprimantes musicalement en Amérique : le grunge, avec Nirvana. Quelle période pourrie !!! Heureusement, les PSB étaient là pour mettre de la couleur et du rythme européen. Je déteste les USA !!!

[madeinamsterdam2028]

What can I say, this song is so 'different' it has so much depths and peaks and there's a lot of romance in it that I cannot stay away from listening to it at least every once a month or so . . . . just GReat !

[anthonynewsome]

VERY is a classic album, Dreaming of the Queen, Go West, One and one make Five, Very is their 5th studio album by & released in 1993. All 5 singles off VERY had amazing videos, peace 2010

[LightningT5]

This has got to be an early 1990s Synthpop classic, just love this song

[GerryTeekman]

Not only a great dance song, but one of the great video clips of all time, along with classic vids like Bowie's 'Ashes to Ashes' - (look it up if you haven't seen it - it's worth it!), and 'Don't Dream It's Over' - Crowded House. Really spacy. However watching it today, I suspect these boys may've been experimenting with mind-altering substances....

[marco8081a]

I was in school when this came out. I was a massive PSB fan at the time, mainly because of my own sexual ambivalence at the time. I can't help but smirk at the bit about "that first friend".

[The11caio11]

Perfect !

[ROBUNITO]

They´re perfect...when they came to Brazil I was a teenager and I freaked out that I couldn´t go their show...this song is just amazing! And their performance also...

[wolfglobal]

This is the song that made me a PSB fan, When it was released I was so fascinated by the music and Neils voice. I would sing it in my room so many times :D Then I discovered their earlier work I became a fan 4 life :D

[armandoxsmac]

@wolfglobal me paso lo mismo xD,escuche la cancion y lei la letra en esos momentos estaba acabado :( pero sus canciones me hicieron pasar por esa epoca triste :D

[SweetSoulIAm]

I have the orange CD-VERY Pet Shop Boys since the mid-90s and I still play it to this day

I can forgive YOU but I can't forget

[Zonum1]

+1 Same here

[bob72kat]

@SweetSoulIAm is that the bobbly orange CD case? @phoney98...but that's childish, so childish.......

[telemetry9]

This could actually be the best concept and imagery in any pop video.

[NitzanRubin]

back to the future

[universoall]

PSB estuvieron en concierto en la Cd. de México y fui con mi hijo de 7años (yo tengo 37) y le encantó!! Los dos lo disfrutamos muuuuuucho!!!!! Gracias PSB por existir! Thanks a lot for being PS, you are really great!

[stevieg4ever]

and on the 8th day God created.... The Pet Shop Boys...

[1sigrun]

you're so right

[mutedisease]

Fiercely smart lyrics to this song eh!!!

[mutedisease]

Bombastic intro really gets you hooked and the intelligent lyrics compliment this excellent song. Even though I don´t listen to their new stuff, this classic still get´s me singing out loud. Thumbs up for song and video.

[Picuj]

Fuckin' love this video and song...

[Socitochile]

Genial !!!

Fantástico.

Pet Shop Boys son los mejores.

[kicsibaba1]

This is big big video.I like very very!!!!!!!!!!

[ZQCHEN]

I can't forget when I first listened to it on the TV in 1993. It's really amazing even it has been already 16 years ago.

[skrikon]

Pet Shop Boys is definetly THE best pop group in the world! Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe are both musical geniuses!

[larsexwow]

Can anyone agree with me, that this song is one of the best songs ever?

[tomialpha]

This is really a good and catchy song, but I think PSB has better songs too.

This is "mid-category" from a genial band.

But you can't hear such perfect songs nowadays from newer bands.

[petshopb]

@larsexwow I can agree , sometimes i have the same feeling:) but this is not the only psb song which makes me feel like that.

[dingding377]

@larsexwow YES!!!

[dipdowel]

@larsexwow True. It is.

[gorlenn]

@larsexwow I agree!



[2obsessivecompulsive]

@larsexwow Agreed!

[TheUAssassin]

@larsexwow So is. But what about "It's a sin"? :)

[larsexwow]

@TheUAssassin "It's a sin" is super song, especially arangee of synthesiser! :)

[martimerius]

it was an amazing song years ago and it still is

[skrikon]

One of the coolest songs ever!

[Tericon6]

It is actually a crime against humanity that this didn't reach number one...

[Maktfaktor]

@Tericon6

No matter how much I agree that this song is fantastic, I think it is an GROSS OVERSTATEMENT to say that this song not making it to number one is a crime against humanity. Imagine to have your whole family murdered, your home torn down, everything you ever had taken away by evil-doers in the name of some twisted greater good, then compare it to this song not making #1. It seems quite easy huh? Still a great song though.

[cogitacogito]

Magnificent..

[lalala020]

Certainly still a fabulous song after all those years!!

[MvB77]

I totally agree: It still sounds so fresh and was kind of upfront when it came out in Spring 1993! I'll never forget this massive impact.

[amigodelsilencio]

I'm pleased to have the opportunity to be the first to comment this. It's always been amazing, but listen this today let you understand how much was outstanding this song and this clip. It would be easily a top-10 everywhere today, and perhaps tomorrow.
