Pet Shop Boys - Two Divided By Zero

[09thenicholas]

two Divided by Zereo sounds good to me !!!!!!!!!!! love the 80s

[lboymusic]

Best Pet Shop's Music EVER!!!!

[leerat]

please was the first cd i ever bought, and will have a place in my heart forever :)

[tonymixon01]

I have loved this song since the day I first heard it!! It has struck a chord deep in my soul and my perception of this is that its two lovers, planning to leave their respective situations...thus the two divided by zero.. zero being their situation...



[btho5531]

@tonymixon01 Thats actually a good comment. I never thought of the song in that context of two lovers. I always thought this song was about committing a crime. Thats a brillant comment. Good one.

[chrisman0pwn0]

division by zero is simple.

you have 2 cookies... you divide them by zero people... you still have 2 cookies.

2/0=2 see kids! its that simp-

*is shot in the head*

[CommandoRazor]

@MEGABLOKSSPARTAN I have no idea.... just copy the second line

[CommandoRazor]

Divide YouTube by zero...

[Praventore]

one of their best, cause of that background sound , listen carefully

[april199510]

.............................o­kay someone PLEASE reply to this comment. I don't understand this song one tiny little bit! Please explain what it's about or something! x Love you Chris <3

[joncbs]

@april199510 Obvious troll is obvious

[thecoldheart2012]

One more song why I love PSB so much! A very great opener for an album. All the first six PSB albums and related maxis and b-sides were fantastic!

[margerytka72]

Kocham

[tiamarr]

AAAAAAAHHHH! ok...I...just...love...this...­sooooong:)

[juanmrt]

7 peoples dont run away and they spread a rumour and they have to pay

[leedscasual1]

loves it

[jens260876]

Let` s not go home,

we`ll catch the late train,

i`ve got enough money to pay on the way,

when the postman calls he deliver the letter....

Yes, i love this song very much..so old, but hearing it again and again...

[Loocas77]

What's the car they ride in ?

[smiffy1071]

@Loocas77 Looks like a 1950's ford consul....but I could be very wrong!

[spottydog4477]

@Loocas77 its a little Ford Zephyr from the mid 50's........my dad had one!

[oblique2008]

amazing track

[lineswine]

The beeps at 1:04,1:12, 2:38 & 2:45 sound suspiciously like the beeps you get when a PPG 2.2 + waveterm have a glitch!

[utahn3752]

@lineswine You took the words right out of my mouth--and best song the boys ever did, but only in my opinion

[Jhensy2012]

Always brilliant, such talented songwriters.

[SodanDK]

its ok to divide by zero, if you are using floating point numbers... the result you get back is 'infinite'. In c++ it would be:

float x = 2;

x /= 0;

[PrinceWatercress]

The first song from the first album.

Thanks for the memories, PSB.

[GUCCIJIM]

I remember playing this song over and over and over again when it was first released......2:16 to 2:30 is my favorite part.....just amazing!

[alvaroponce13]

psb.maestros de la musica.

reino unido cuna de los mejores musicos del mundo.

[sidandmoi]

underrated song. please is an excellent album and this is the best song from it

[armintiestoferry]

i physically can't stop listening to this song. every time it gets to the end i have to restart it. i must have listened to it 20+ times in the last two hours. wtf!!!!

[09thenicholas]

great song ,love it

[paulnodpod]

come divide me ...  23. q

[1980NJH]

Playa Dice hangin from he Mirror

[SnapCraft316]

Made with a Sharp EL-620 voice synthesized calculator. Even the "beep-beep" in the song is part of the calc's sound effects.

[noescom]

@SnapCraft316 I thought it's the Speak & Math kids toy?

[SnapCraft316]

@noescom No, it is the Sharp Calculator. I found it at a garage sale and being a PSB fan I recognized it fairly quickly. Maybe I'll post usage of it soon.

[noescom]

@SnapCraft316 I bought the sharp calculator and you're right. It's exactly the same samples. The Speak & Spell is used in the live version (Pandemonium Tour).

[gameonandon]

My brother was born to this song lol. My mum had it blaring in the delivery room when he popped out lol :)

[paulnodpod]

come on que me. divide meeeeeeeee. 

[TeslaDRay]

i love their constant straight faces. they are so cool, naturally cool. i heard they are also REALLY COOL to their fans.

[Maseraticrazy]

Great tune, but pretty random video!

[stewiemg42]

just seen them play this on t.v at glasto,pure class,brings back memories of being a teen!!!!!!!

[Cimbarius]

classic - still magic.

[kudrevsky]

Start of the singing here together with a plane flying is just plain awesome...

[JohnCope79]

But only Chuck Norris can devide by zero!

[JohnCope79]

Erm, it's "divide", not "devide".

[Chianagirl]

love it especially when the car got damaged but neil & chris didnt give a glance

[seldenboy]

the first song from the first album.. the beginning of the legend..

[expedition16]

It's just that the video sucks though. Today's songs, crap music but awesome music vids, 80's was great music but the vids never lived up to the song except for MJ and Madonna's and real big artists.

[theforce2010]

id have this song blasting

[BrutusMcCrunch]

I could cry because of the memories from my teen years when life was actually fucking decent.If only i knew how crap it would get later.......Please was such a classic CD

[runeDNA]

Who cares what it's about? It sounds superb! Great song!

[justy1onle]

It's about Neil and his friends running away down to London. They used to go to the train station and fantasise about it. Though I love everyones points about it aswell and think they are all very good and well thought. This is my favourite PSB song of all time!

[ashleyfa44]

Theyr the best pop duet of all times!!

PSB for ever!!

[suhairihussin]

love PSB

[Bethfromwigan]

what is this song about ?

[harrymtsally]

i dont really know its from the pet shop boys movie called it COULDENT HAPPEN HERE from around 1987 and the whole film is a very david lynch type movie

[carub00]

About two been divided by zero...

[RHINOWINOLUNATIC]

@Bethfromwigan

Does it matter? I think though it's about 2 people planning to go running off and starting again, but you know they'll never get round to doing it.

[xpinkxlipglossx1]

I love the pet shop boys music and them

[MrGodBotherer]

For b = 0, the equation bx = a can be rewritten as 0x = a or simply 0 = a. Thus, in this case, the equation bx = a has no solution if a is not equal to 0, and has any x as a solution if a equals 0. In either case, there is no unique value, so is undefined. Conversely, in a field, the expression is always defined if b is not equal to zero.

[MrGodBotherer]

I've shagged somebody in the back of my car listening to this song! It was great .. just like the pet shop boys ;-)

[walker2s]

very classey ha ha

[xXPurpleSergueiXx]

OMG! I just love this band and gonna love them 4 ever!!!

[SomethingGodAwful]

Oh God! They divided by zero! HOLY SH--

[PrinceWatercress]

@SomethingGodAwful LMAO!

[JCCyC]

@SomethingGodAwful And that's what happens when you divide by zero.

You get machine-gunned by a crazy guy in a biplane.

Let that serve as a cautionary tale.

[txbuster]

@SomethingGodAwful LOL

[manhshopboy]

my parents too

[prettyinblue1985]

My parents loved this band.

[karaloca]

They were probably rogering each other senseless in the back of your dads Ford Granada, whilst listening to it on cassette. You never know if it wasn't for this song - you may not be here today! LOL.

[prettyinblue1985]

Um, no.. For one, The Pet Shop Boys didn't come out until 1986 and I was born in 1985. My parents didn't start listening to this band until well into the early 90's - 93 or so. For 2, you're an idiot and I don't appreciate your comments.

[prettyinblue1985]

Ok, sorry.. 1984 or so.. when they came out.

[karaloca]

Listening to a record from early 86 in 93?

Well at least no one can accuse your father of not taking his time. Sweet.

[LebaneseBrit]

ROFL at your comment!!

There's not much that's more disgusting than imagining your parents having sex.

Piss funny!!

[Sorasen]

I just saw PSB in concert, and they perform this song even better now than they do here.

[PPLUIS80S]

Dios mio, como cante esta

cancion . . . cuando me bañaba

cuando caminaba, donde fuera..

esta cancion super super . . .

Viva PSB. . .Que hermosos recuerdos..

[putzthemouse]

Reminds me of a 16 year old version of myself riding on the SF Muni Metro, listening to this on my Walkman. PSB still rule!

[paul20motorbikes]

Sooooooooooooo good ...it hurts!!!!

[MalintzinLee]

WriTghT BroTherS RighT?. I Do LovE ThIs Song. PeT... Loves YoU 4 EveR N EveR MoRe. KissSSeeeSSSssssZstOOO222 Muchchchchchch.

[orden265]

[fred10538]

"you can give it all up for a place in the sun"

[TAYLORME43]

Neil should do a book on tape. His voice is just the best. I have loved the Pet Shop Boys since1986. They defined my college 4 years

[S8clothing]

5 divided by zero is Divided by ZERO!

[Majorhedgehog89]

I love this song !

[leamgem]

Did anybody else walk the streets and the park with their gang blasting out the 'Please' album on a rastablasta?!!

[jjaassoonnjjaassoonn]

Yes Yes Yes Yes.... I did, i thought i was the dogs dangly bits walking throught the park in Evesham blasting this album out, espicially this track!! How funny we were not the only ones.. Love it.

[beem24]

[mechsgal]

Shoot, I was a kid when I heard that. What a memory. I love how he sings... sssoooo smooth and soft like.

[pivotwous]

I've just seen the movie, it's great. Off course they're not the best actors ever, but they did well :P

[misterviolator]

i love this song!

[Playmate909]

The video comes from the film they done

It Couldn't happen here

[darwleg]

I like Pet Shop Boys music, but why they did a song called 2 divided by zero??Maybe for drive us crazy with that division!!!!

[crusher8576]

I tried to divide 2 by zero and my CALCULATOR EXPLODED WHAT DO I DO NOW?

[SpikeXtreme]

According to windows xp calculator "cannot divide by zero" was the answer.

[umbraluno]

I didn't have a clue that pet shop boys shot a video of 2 divided by 0. This song is taken from their debut album PLEASE...But, as far as I know It never was released as a single. So, where does video come from? Any clue?

[esquirel78]

movie It Couldn't Happen Here

[milw189]

WOW!! ME NIETHER! This is WAY COOL DUDE!!

[asoberprep]

read the info tab on the right was re edited for the movie it couldnt happen here.

[xfileswilly]

Great track ! The PSBs had loads of railway stuff in there music and two divided by zero had a voice in the background half way though this song. It cam from Victoria station, the chap is announcing the Epsom down service. Great stuff.

[darwleg]

Puff!! I have amnesia so many years studying that on my university career and i forget about that!! Thanks!!

[darwleg]

2%0=???????? I did 2 divided by zero with my calculator and results someting like error!!

[madminister]

2 / 0 is infinity. any number devidided by zero is infinity

[Lilinye]

2/0 != infinity. Infinity is not a number, it is a set.

2/0 = undefined.

[wizsoft]

@Lilinye It is is undefined by definition, but if you divide any real number by smaller positive or negative numbers the result becomes larger positively and negatively respectively. So 1/0.1 = 10, 1/0.01 = 100 etc till infinity and 1/-0.1 = -10, 1/-0.01 = -100 etc till -infinity so at the point of the denominator =0 it switches from -infinity to +infinity or a discontinuity in the equation. Maybe the end of the universe is the beginning?

[YFLOInternational]

@Lilinye My guess is they mean that they can not be divided. The concept is undefined because it is unrealistic and non-probabilistic that the 2 can be halved by anything. The notion is purely imaginary. Therefore, the only way in which to understand this is within the context and framework of an existential mind in observance of the imaginary number set. Which would further suggest that none of this is as we perceive it to be. Non-integer systems cannot explain this phenomenon. 2,1=Null.

[sunshine80dd]

der song ist spitze und war der opener des albums "please"...

[Paninaro88]

a excelent song for a great album!!!

[VenetaTownMayor]

In the top 10 list of 80s music.

[3anaurv2]

the first of the first album and the best already.

[rikkot]

Teo divided by zero: this song has two meanings interwoven into it.

First, the idealistic young love declaring that the two of them will be divided by zero, that is, nothinh will stand between them.

But, there will be no happy ending, since "2/0" equals infinity... Nothing can last that long.

[luisalexis1969]

TREMENDO VIDEO

[mahsa]

Can a song get any better? Neil Tennant outsmarts everyone in music.

[duliemb]

Ainda bem que temos como armazenar sons como este e muitos outros....imagine se a "Dança do Créu" fosse nossa única saída...estariamos fodidosssss....Pet Shop Boys neles.....rsrsrrsrsr

[Suspekt23]

One of the best PSB-Songs EVER !!!

[DevonnyfromOusack]

Super song :-)

[diesonneuk]

I love this song

What pure escapism this track is...

"let's not go home"

[FallasDeOrigern]

Well, this song is one of the last one's produced by Bobby Orlando and was co-wroted by him and the PSB

[anflo69]

muito legal PSB, PENA Q O TEMPO SEMPRE PASSA, MAS AS MÚSICAS SÃO ETERNAS...

[newpsb72]

Great songs ! thanks ...

PSB Hungarian Fan (1986)

[speedinginmyporsche]

Nice North by Northwest and Bonnie and Clyde montage. PSB are genius!

[ffm20zaheri]

the movie was disgusting :-(

i borrowed it 6 years ago from the library and i was disappointed by the topic of the movie

[tonymixon01]

ha ha ha they have like a thousand albums,... and unable to locate on any of them

its as if this song is their "signature" piece and they are not releasing it. I cannot locate on any discs..

[tonymixon01]

some one please tell me where i can get a cd of this song

I HAVE to have it

I seem to be addicted to it

[nath21650]

Its on the PSB album, please. :D

[MONICA8790]

Yes, is the FIRST song of the FIRST album

[arthurmex]

Their first song from all Lp´s discography, good!

[wmichswingers]

anyone know what kind of plane that is? Looks a bit like a DH Tiger Moth...

[ParisD]

I have to admit, when this tune came out, I was a complete metal-head. But this one tune remains one of my favorites from the 80s. I don't care for the rest of thier stuff, but this one is a real stand out. Great arrangement, awesome beat and nicely ambiguous lyrics. I agree...this should have been a single.

[stevesoxx]

I love this song!!!! My favorite part of this song is 1 min and 41 seconds to 2 min and 2 min and 15 seconds.

[Miles1031]

stlpsb said: Any number divided by zero is zero, not undefined.

I must say, this video makes absolutely no sense.

...well im sorry to tell you, but YOU make no sense. any number divided by zero IS undefined. you basically said that 0 x 0 = 2. THAT doesn't make any sense. next time you make a statement like that, make sure you know what you're talking about.

[laurrentiu]

Mine too! :))))

[laurrentiu]

(for my previous comment): @stevesoxx

[stealthboy19]

I love the Pet Shop Boys and this is my favourite song by them;)

[youthquake]

this is my all time favourite song by the boys

[annathegirl622]

Chris really looked great in the movie

[prohibido]

"2 dividido por 0" translation in spanish

great song

from chile

[claudiodesevilla]

Please, What do airport departure this aeroplane?.-

Thanks

Claudio From Sevilla, Spain

[conedandstoned]

Its a brilliant movie,my all time favorite flick

[jerrysutty]

How cool does chris look... timeless

[stlpsb]

Any number divided by zero is zero, not undefined.

I must say, this video makes absolutely no sense.

[LimeyIce]

Best song by the Pet Shop Boys ever!!!

[arytaj]

THe answe is "UNDEFINED". Any nymber divided by zero is "UNDEFIEND". Nice song.

[olivetiming]

Fantastic ! Le titre qui ouvre le 1er album des Pet Shop Boys. Plus de 20 ans après, c'est toujours exceptionnel ! Cela s'appel le Talent.

[Dalquaz]

I'm with hyperwhizzkid, this is Stephan Hague's best production.

[hyperwhizzkid]

This is my favourite ever Pet Shop Boys song! It's the first track on the album Please, a great start to a great album. They should have released it as a single, it's the best they've ever done!

[Thimmy1]

I love this movie and the boys are great!

[maryrosestorey]

I'm glad you love this movie. I loved making it and had a great time. The reception, critically, was mixed but nonetheless I still think it had a lot. I thank you for your reaction. Have a merry Christmas, best wishes, Mad Jack

[run2me2020]

you made the video? Thats cool. Its so annoying it is not out on DVD! Can you pull some strings?
