to all the douche-bags who aren't into this version, WHY THE FUCK LISTEN TO IT THEN! don't comment bullshit, just click off the video and listen the U2 version. I personally prefer the pet shop boys to U2 but that's the type of music I'm into. Both bands are great in their own right.
@kingofkeyboards your gay, kelli69 is gay, and any other techno humping motherfucker who thinks this version is better than the original is gay. go munch some cock you weirdos lol
@wild1033 never said this was better, just said I prefer this as I'm more fond of this type of music. it's knobheads like you who can't read that cause trouble and write bullshit. like I said the U2 original version is great but as a fan of electronic music this is more to my liking. you clearly have one of the least diverse tastes in music on earth. considering bono and the other band members approve very much so of this version go tell them what you said here. bye ;-) "lol"
@kingofkeyboards oh i can read. i read everything you said. "i personally prefer the gay shop boys to U2". sounds like you have shitty taste in music and i just thought i'd point that out. have a nice day you techno cocksucker.
I really don't think that this version of the song is that bad. Sometimes you have to freshen things up a bit and change a certain sound so that things don't become boring or mundane. I will always love any version of song that PSB puts out no matter what because I love them that much.
If I would have known that the Pet Shop Boys were doing this song, I would have never clicked on this video and wasted even 2 seconds of my life. This is pure crap! They ruined a true masterpiece! Even U2 would be absolutely mortified, embarrassed, nauseous by this horrid crap; I know I am!!!
I feel bad for the people of Russia to have to hear such a good song be ruined by these people only U2 can play where the streets have no name these people made me throw up my pizza.
Huge U2 fan since 1985. I loved the Pet Shop Boys cover when it first came out in 1991! It's the only successful cover of U2...ever (well, in Europe). Yes, perhaps no one should ever even attempt to cover U2, but it was such a different take on the original that I feel it worked. However I do agree that Neil Tennant's voice sounds a bit sketchy now, a couple decades later after his prime.
Oh My. I am a big PSB fan and the studio version of this song is actually quite good, but... There really are no polite words to use here, very, very unfortunate. Does not give license, however for all of the Gay Bashing going on here. Nuf said.
I was there. Not bad considering this concert was put together a week before the event, after Geldof and organizers realized that there were only 7 concerts and they forgot about Russia. Not heavily advertized - my friend and I got there an hour late and got right up front. PSB, a favorite in Moscow, played 6 songs, 2 of them were "It's a sin." Some great Russian bands preceded them. I don't think the organizers really got their point across due to the last minute, but it was a good time.
Shame U2 are shit and completely irrelevant, banging out the same old shit for the last 20 years while others have moved on and innovated. So sorry :(
I WISH I COULD DROP A BOMB AT THIS PLACE ... What a load of shitsniffing crap. Who is this cocksucker by the way. I'll search for him and his cocksucker members so I can dismember them myself
jezooo man!!! did they pull this guy aff the street az a placement! they actually jump into 2 songs wat the fuk iz tha all about uffffffff sorry wat a lot a shit lol
Me gustan los PSB pero estoy de acuerdo que esta no es una buena actuacion, No se que le paso a Neil ese dia, una verdadera pena con un grupo tan grande como ellos. Aun asi PSB Ruleeeees¡¡¡
It's not their best cover, and I wish they'd stop performing it live, but PSB run circles around U2. U2 was actually my favourite band until I saw PSB at Live 8. Seeing pop music through a humourous and ironic lens really exposes U2's earnestness, weakness, and self-righteousness.
Pet Shop Boys are a studio band, not live performance. They need all the studio effects and production to beef up what is otherwise a mediocre show (I don't mean anything against the Boys since their album version of this song is fairly good on it's own merits).
Pet Shop Boys lack the necessary impact of delivering what is a very emotionally powerful song in a live setting.
I don´t like this live performance either. But don´t mess with PSBs! I would guess that this is the only time you´ve seen PSB on live. There is more to learn, m8!
Unfortunately it doesn't work that way. Anyone can create and play a cover of a song by another band, so long as they pay royalties to the original band/label via PRS.
his voice is a piece of trash! ruined this song for me man!

I agree to some extent, when Lowe only uses Nord Electric
keyboards and not Synths they sound not so Pet Shop Boys
and more generic. Lowe needs to stick to Korgs, Yamaha
and Rolands to bring out their more advance sound like in
the Night Life tour and their Fundamental act. They need to dump the guitar bit big time...
