  • i could kick my own butt i forgot this band loved it still do

  • I LOVE THIS TRACK!!

    I want back to '80s

    Damn, scientists. How long I must wait

    for the time machine?

  • you can fly away to the end of the world... but where does it get you?

  • us 80s kid will apriciate this more than other generations

    my life was simple football fizzy sweets and 80s pop

    music....and of course my bmx...miss you era

  • Amazing!! never got the credit it deserved.

  • fucking brill

  • As good of a songwriting duo as there has ever been, in any time, in any genre, from any walk of life, all around the world.

    Tennant/Lowe > all

  • Favorite Pet Shop Boys song. SO FUCKING AWESOME, KICKS TOTAL ASS!

  • WOW! Simply one of the best groups of the 80's and possibly their best song. 2:40 to 3:00 is awesome.....great vid! Takes me back to a better time and place....ahh to be young again!!

  • Fall 1984, Checkpoint Charlie, 7pm, my Walkman, this song playing. East German border guard entrance. U.S. passport. A once over. Thumbed right. Followed a lined pathway past a guard-house, approaching a wall. A Vopo standing at its end. No exit apparent, he shoves his right elbow against the wall and a door springs open. I step through onto a busy street, 1950's cars driving past. I look back. The door closes. indistinguishable from the wall. This song blaring in my ears.

  • @Veritas23257 Fall 1984. This song didn't come out until '86.

  • @flares

    You're right ... in the U.S.

    But I bought the tape in London in late November 1984, before I flew to Berlin. This song, and a few others on the album, were originally released in the UK well over a year before they were packaged and released as an album in the U.S.

  • 7 Idiots dislike this ..... what a loser ! ...

  • Without doubt the best 80's band

  • You are not nostalgic, but just speaking the truth

  • i had forgotten how fricken awesome they were , i grew up listening to them but havent been back to their music in 10 years , they made music that didnt need all the bullshit PR crap just great lyrics and tunes , without a doubt one the great song writers of the 80`s

  • Makes me feel 14 again!!

  • brings back such good memories.

  • this so should have been a bigger hit! one of their hidden gems.

  • THE most under-rated PSB single. This crushes all current 'pop' songs into a black hole. A legendary yet simplistic track with the usual depth of vocal fragility that Neil oozes time and time again. How long have we gotta wait for a time machine to transport us back to this era?!

  • and the lyrics are great because few songs have such lyrics, true, beautiful , simple, interesting, talking directly to the listenner

  • This song is SEXY! My favorite from PSB.

  • @tshirtjay This is also my favorite PSB song. I love it.

  • WOW... ... ... ... ... ...

  • They should play this on the radio instead of Nikki Whoraj or Lil Chimp.

  • Back in the day, I remember a good friend of mine was so enamored with this song, he made a cassette tape copy of the "please" cd for his car. THIS song however, he included two times in a row.

  • may just be one of the most under rated songs of all time ????its brilliant.

  • Love it!!

  • A million times better then the crap of nowadays

  • It's true you know, sooner or later, it happens to everyone, sometimes in the most unexpected, unopportune moments.

  • A forgotten classic

  • Amazing how some groups never fade...this song will live forever. Awesome!

  • I love this song! Memories of 1986...

  • absolute classic,used to listen to these on my walkman,this was on it,cant remember the album,was a bit scared at the time to let my m8's know what was in my walkman,they thought it was the stoneroses lol.wish i could go back to the 80's.i get kinda emotional when i go back to that decade.pure magic.

  • beautiful and underated song

  • i graduated in 1979 and this is the kind of music i,m talking about. todays music, no way. DENO.

  • Until this past Tuesday, I hadn't herd this song in years. Thank the Goddess for 1st Wave XM... & Luiscmkl for posting this vid!

  • I like this song because It's beautiful and, for me, it's totally wrong.

    In many years, a lot of people felt in love with me and I've never been able to reciprocate. So love never came, but I don't regret too much, I've had a lot of sex and friendship.

  • Esta música é eterna .

  • Most music today is shit, but I am trying to change that..

  • this tak me back to the cold of the winter 

  • high style ! it´s the 80's !

  • SO THAAAAAATS WHERE THAT SAMPLE COMES FROM !!!!!!!!!1!!!!

  • Sooner or later, Sooner or later, this happens to Everyone, to Everyone..

  • @cielobuio, judging by the number of positive votes your comment received, I'd say you're not being too nostalgic at all. 8)

  • @cielubio, judging by the number of positive votes your comment received, I'd say you're not being too nostalgic at all. 8)

  • One of my PSB best songs.

  • Superb.

  • I agree todays music will be lost in a a year or 2..these songs are timeless..

  • i agree. music today is horrible for the most part.

  • 2: little is zealous because everything touches hearts

  • The best Pet shop boys song,if you stumble onto this page and have never heard this before ,hope you love this as much as we do!!!

  • Just discovered this existed, and really like it ... I highly recommend the cover (which I'd heard first) by the Canadian group Memphis.  I think fans will appreciate it.

  • @Nieghorn

    cant beat an original like this. timeless pop song

  • BRAVI....................

  • Realmente Ado0ro esa Canci0ón es fabuloosa ♥ ♥ ♥

  • This Is My Favorite Song From Psb

  • Awesome record from the Pet Shop Boys. Great dance song.

  • I absolutely love this PSB song and to me this is their greatest !! Earliest stuff is definitely their best and this was an era when Chris Lowe was seen without his sunglasses.. he always seems to wear them now !!

  • @WalshNo5 agreed.had an album (vinyl)of 12inch tunes,discotheque if memory serves me.awesome.early stuff was their best by far.suburbia,opportunities,wes­t end girls. great days,great tunes.

  • Still fucking incredible, after all these years ....

  • :)))

  • @seanmcgpa after all these years? its only getting better every time i listen to it.

  • how to download this video

  • This group is brilliant and they are still making music. THey did it not to be so much at the top of the charts and for the bottom line, but to really write and make good music.

  • A pretty optimistic song.

  • This is truly their best song! LOVE IT!!

  • AGREED !!!

  • I hated the Pet Shops Boys with a passion.....but for some bizarre reason I like this song

  • That's because it's their best song.

  • I am thankful to be right there to enjoy all great tunes of the 80s!!.... PSB's is simply one of the best groups of them.. Some group has 1 or 2 good tunes, PSB's kept coming up with multiple hits.

  • @cutebobo1 true...PSB rock :)

    They are fantastic... Domino Dancing is everlasting perfect in my opinion...But also other... Also Patsy Kensit production (and the Introspective Mix)!

    Regards,

    Luca ITALIA

  • psb rock!!

  • Damn this is so good still, after all these years.

  • one of their absolute best

  • Agree. While I think some of the others have more complexity, I think Neils voice and the music are most rhythmic on this one. The End of The World would come close though.

  • Ironic - back in the 80s, we just took good music like this for granted, but compared to today's popular music, this is on a par with Bach.

    Or am I just too nostalgic ?

  • NO cielobuio, you're NOT just too nostalgic!

    You are absolutely, 100% RIGHT my friend!

    We DID just take great music like this for granted back then, because it was EVERYWHERE!

    I was a huge fan of Hard Rock and Heavy Metal from the 80's, but as I grew older I realised that I loved ALL genres of music from the 1980's. You can listen to just about ANYTHING from the 80's and really dig it.

    Some of the "music" of today is so lousy it just turns my stomach. Many teens of today like our music more!

  • Yeah music from the 80s was the absolute best. I'm 18(wish i was born in the 80s) and I listen to just about anything. But most music nowadays just makes my stomach turn. It just makes me wonder since people that grew up in the 80s still listen to 80s music, will the people today that grow up listening to *cough*Miley Cyrus*cough* still be listening to her 20+ years from now? Doubt it. If they do then that's just sad.

  • lol good point,

    this song reminds me of one of my first "true loves"

  • @cielobuio No, you are right on. Today's mainstream popular music is complete crap.

  • @cobbcon2001

    I was listening to a song on the radio last night and it was just a man bragging about all his money and stuff... It's pointless

  • @cielobuio I'd say that's pretty spot-on.

  • @cielobuio

    no,no ur absolutely right my friend.i feel exactly the same way. it's like no one under 28 has a soul at all.

  • @BrutusMcCrunch I'm 17 and get called "pretentious" because I refuse to listen to shitty modern day music, it sucks to be young and not have the right to be "nostalgic" of the past

  • @grayearmuffs0o

    I hear you man.Keep it up and then come up with something totally new based on these sources!

  • @cielobuio you are really exaggerating. and you've become really, really old. This "everything used to be better" sentiment is the first + most important sign of mental aging. Dont u think the 1960s generation thinks PSB is crap just as much you think "todays" music is crap? Oh yes they do!!

    Besides, I like Beyonce, Linkin Park, Sufjan Stevens, Coldplay, Eminem, Warren G, even some country music, even though Taylor "Barbieface" S. is no country AT ALL its just poppy. Dixiechicks, THAT'S country

  • @regger099:

    The majority (80%) of today's music is absolute shit. It has nothing to do with age & everything to do with taste. I was born in '81 (just like Beyonce), so that blows the "sign of mental aging" BS. Do you honestly think that Rihanna could have ran with Madonna or Janet Jackson? Could Justin Bieber hang with Michael Jackson? Music was arranged better, lyrics were written better, & voices sounded better, for the most part, back then. REAL Music died after 1996.

  • @regger099:

    Every generation has their good & bad artists, but this generation's music is horrible. The scales are so unbalanced. Finding good new music is like finding a diamond in mud. The missing 20% is out there, but it's hard as hell to find because the record industy is working hard to continually spoon-feed their poop (Bieber, Cyrus, Rihanna, Katy Perry) to the public.

  • @SpankRamen2 It's pretty easy to find good music if you're into indie because this has been the decade of indie music. Listen to Broken Social Scene for some amazing music, for instance.

  • so well said...

  • @cielobuio

    not all ....just very observant!...damn I miss the 80's

  • @cielobuio No your right....music has really lost creativity and musical talent. Beauty and youth are now being mistaken for talent.

  • @cielobuio

    I know what you mean. Every generation leaves its mark but I think our generation was really underappreciated. Man, where has the time gone? 

  • @eatandtravel I love your comment, Man, where has the time gone?

    I ask myself so often, but I already know the answer: my life was so furious I didn't notice it passing by, I don't know, maybe it was the same for you.

  • @vaxiawval

    I hear you my man. Look at the past with fondness and happiness and be happier about the future.

    Our time was AWESOME or better yet RADICAL.

  • @eatandtravel

    i was only 5 when this came out but loved every minute of the 80's. long live them.

  • @cielobuio, Bach!!!

    Please. Rock me Amadeus!

  • @cielobuio Not at all my friend. Most of today's popular music is pretty forgettable.

  • @cielobuio both

  • "It may seem romantic and that's no defense, Love will always get to you!"

  • THE REASON I tell you all the following story (see below) is that "Love Comes Quickly" was playing at the dance club that we ended up at!

    It was THE VERY FIRST TIME I heard the song.

    I have loved it ever since!

    Based on my story below...My version is called:

    "LOVE GOES AWAY QUICKLY TOO!! (lol)

  • Gorgeous sounding track. PSB's best ever....AND I have a suitably melancholy STORY to go with it! Thru some friends, I met a pretty blonde girl at a rock club in about 1987 or '88. I bought her a rose, and asked her out. We went for dinner and dancing. She even hinted she might get naked that night! BUT she lost interest a few hours later because I ran out of money on the date!

    Her sweet girlfriend passed me a $20 spot under the table! Alas, it was too late!

    I SHOULD'VE dated the friend!!

  • one of the finest songs by pet shop nice chords god knows how he sings in that register!

  • for me is the best of their song... electric and romantic song

  • True! Probably it'really the best!

  • one of their best songs.

  • I have a hell of alot of respect for all the great music they made. The very best of New Wave.

  • Ma chanson préférée. Magnifique !

  • A time travel!

  • this and "opportunities" are my fav PSB songs.

  • i LOVE YOU Neil!

  • I don't know. There's always something about the PSB videos that I really like.

  • magical time in the 80s, reminds me of new york city dance clubs and my old boyfriend.

  • I love this song more than any other PSB hits. This song reminds me of the most unforgettable girl I ever met

  • I come quickly too.

    always been a problem of mine sadly

  • psbs music touches and speaks to people, not gender,sex etc.

  • this was PSB's second single and it flopped. i never understood why. this is my absolute favorite PSB track and i love it even more than west end girls if u can believe that.

  • I feel the same way!

  • Fun song!!...brings back memories of that decade!.

  • yeven if they are gay their music speaks to everyone.

  • 2 ex-wives later....I'm still waiting..... Oh Yeah....and straight Guys Love the Pet Shop Boys too....

  • The Pet Shop Boys made the best dance songs of my youth. They were so way before their time.

  • @RealVerdad

    If you want to write about 80's music, the Pet Shop Boys have to included.

  • @RealVerdad , . . well said my good friend . .

  • this is their best tune i think. it holds up the best. west end girl is still great though.

  • I agree. This song has a special place in my heart and in my soul.

  • Pet shop boys are the bomb

  • LOVE COMES QUICKLY, I'll taste forbidden pleasures,I will fly til the end of the world, love you PSB! Chicago

  • wish I never fell in love now :(

  • I'm pretty sure they are both gay. Or may be one is. I know at least one is.

  • Beautiful song by "The GREAT Pet Shop Boys!"

  • I absolutely agree with the lyrics in this song, sooner or later it does happen to everyone...

    Great track 5*

  • still waiting for it to happen to me :(

  • loooooooove the 80s!!

  • new wave rules!!!

  • this was the best song they ever did...

  • Back in the day when music was still good.

  • "Sooner or later, this happens to everyone."

    Bullshit!!!!!

  • An unforgettable, classic song from the 80's.

    Was on a first date with a beautiful girl( who was out of my league) when I first heard it...

    I lost her, but won a great melody & memory.

    Andy McKay from Roxy Music plays the sax on it. For anyone who's ever fallen in love at first sight...Love Comes Quickly -indeed.

    Truly, PSB's most shining moment !

  • hermoso BEATIFUL SONG ´´´´´´´´

  • sooner or later, this happens to everyone

  • This is my favorite Pet Shop Boys song! I love this song

  • Love comes quickly . Took me about 11seconds to fall in love with you Pam . 10 seconds to realise i wasn't dreaming and 1 second later mesmorized. Love at first sight. You are F**king stunning. Love this song too . 1st Pet shop boys album Please is one of my fav albums. next song pet shop boys opportuninties. txt me

  • This is my favorite Pet Shop Boys song. Truly gifted guys.

  • Probably. I mean, you were raining latent, frustrated homo blows down all over that poor "Mrs" of yours... : /

    You were bound to hit, well... pretty much everything... Benoit! xD

  • Wrong and WRONG, Mr Smack My Bitch Up! ^_^

  • I love the mix on the album Disco of 'Love Comes Quickly', also the "West End Girls" Mix is very good as well as 'Paninaro', my top 3 tracks from Disco, top remix album

  • No. The funny thing about you, Mr Joe Average, is that your pent up desires will eventually manifest as violence towards that famous "Mrs" of yours! ^_^

    (*If she taps out, you gotta break the hold! : / )

  • Listen, closet cum-craver. You and your 'onegina' can enjoy your rote, routine, soap scrubbed, nonoxynol-9 daubed, condom clad, dental dam lined, lights off mission position every other month like you do for all I care.

    All I know for sure is that you have latent homosexual desires! ^_^

    Read up on the psychological explanations for homophobia, or even xenophobia, and you'll find that the prejudice is more often than not a direct result of fear, jealousy and pent up desire!... fag! ^_^

  • That's okay. : )

    Pins are sharp, after all. ; )

    Just make the anal foreplay longer (and deeper!)

    next time.  Okay, Mr Tongue? ^_-

  • What's the difference between them going through "500 dicks" and you growling 500 smelly, acidic, menstrual, germ-y pussies? And you do realise there's also a correlation between cunnilingus and oral cancer, right...? : /

    So the former activity sounds far more palatable when you put it factually, don't it? <_<

  • Love this song so much! Brings back so many great memories! Miss those good times!

  • i absolutely love the Hixxy & Re-Con hardcore remix of this song!!! If you havent listened to it go check it out!!!

  • Still a Classic in 2009!

    Pet shop Boys 4-Ever!

  • That's not saying much really, given how craptastic song today are. -_-

    Awesome ditty though! One of the 'Boys" best.

  • 1986? wow a sound of hope, I'd say, since then, thousands of men have had my body, love came to many of them, never to me. Now I'm old and, amazingly, there's still people who wants to pick me up but I'm totally drained. Should I wait around the corner instead in Ibiza discos?"

  • Who cares if they're gay! Good '80s music is good '80s music.

  • It's usually homosexuals that end up insightful and open-minded enough to write songs like this. Close-minded heteros will rarely be in touch with their emotions enough to see past tits, ass, poontang, money, marriage or babies to compose this sort of stuff. C'est la vie. -_-

    ...But what's their sexual orientation got to do with anything anyway...? o_0

  • it's wonderful to see so many people moved in a positive way to this song on youtube. Yes, it's unbelievable that this was not a number one hit. Like many, and perhaps even Neil, I think this is possibly their best track. x

  • there is someone here who has no love, only hate, pure irrational ridiculous hate of the lowest intelligence form, but sooner or later, love happens to everyone. Then you will find enlightenment.
