To me, the great gift of the PSBs is that through the things their music has given me and all their fans is that in a way, we all, a little bit, become our own Pet Shop Boys regardless of gender or orientation. Kindness, good will, being gentle and, most of all but not most importantly, cool.
A history/ current affairs lesson to a beat. That is why they have lasted so long.. The Pet Shop Boys are special to many people and i hope they get everything in life that they deserve x
@KellerCello. Agreed. It's superb. Somehow I could see them singing this song with an orchestra in a grand ole opera house. Love the chord and key changes. Even without the lyrics, the music is brilliant on its own.
@KellerCello I think you would probably like Owen Pallett's other work. He's the orchestra arranger on this track, and his other work is very classically informed.
Though I love The Way It Used To Be and King of Rome, I think this is the best song on Yes. It is a masterpiece. Within the pop realm they created a non-pop song. Astounding.
Denle un anillo, el les explicara por que... La burguesia lo superara, mirame, estoy TAN sobrepuesto! Y a ti se te pasara, lo haras, te repondras a tiempo
AH, QUE CANCION TAN LOCA, ESPERO QUE MI TRADUCCION LES SIRVE A MIS CARNALES LATINOS... CORRIJANME SI ME EQUIVOQUE, POR FAVOR
La opinion publica puede no estar de tu lado/ Hay quienes creen que han sido llevados de paseo/ Tu lo superaras/ Estoy de tu lado porque ya se te pasara y que viaje fue este! Todos los artistas del mundo cantan por ti esta noche, todos los artistas del mundo cantan por ti y esta oscuro/ Esta oscuro pero se te pasara, en tus marcas, ya lo superaras/ Ese chico del almacen de telefonia automotriz ha estado al telefono, quiere mejorar tu movil/ Te has dado cuenta que tu computadora es un espia?...
Ahi seras el Rey sobre el agua desesperado, rehuyendo de la matanza/ Estan reclutando un ejercito en el Norte, desde el ministro de York hasta el Firth of Forth/ Una peregrinacion de gracia, no lo creeras, que rostro tan humano, cuando lo recibas/ Y tu te sobrepondras, con tiempo que perder, lo superaras/ Hay un crucero esperando en Scapa Flow para alejarte de todo lo que ya sabes/ El viejo hombre agonizaba, realmente se habia comprometido...
Eso es el fin, pero vas a superarlo amigo mio/ Pasara el tiempo, los gobiernos caeran, los glaciares se derretiran, los huracanes vociferaran/ Trenes a alta velocidad nos llevaran de norte a sur y nos regresaran el mismo dia/ Y a ti se te pasara, lo haces, ya lo superas/ Las estaciones cambiaran, mas o menos. Desapareceran las especies, el arte desconcertara, el resentimiento permanecera en el este y el oeste, la policia esperara un arresto/ Por ahora, lo superaras. Como sea, ya se te pasara...
La mejor cancion del disco, otra muestra de lo que Pet Shop Boys Puede lograr con buenos productores y su grandioso talento. Yo compre 3 veces este disco para regalar.
Can someone please tell me why this song has been censored in china? i live on the coast where the firth of forth is (fife,scotland) and my grand father worked at scapa flow during the war, where the germans tried to invade us. my history knowledge is pretty minimal. help!!
There were quite a few lines that connected to current times. It stated the lines on the official website, but can't seem to find them now. If you contact them they will give you the actual lines.
Thanks pnelad. i will look into it. there are loads of references, very strong song. some say its Tony Blair's legacy in parts ie. some people feel like that they have been taken for a ride. but you will get over it... look at me, i'm SO over it. great song. thanks for the info mate.
Many fans don't like this one, but I do. Lyrically it's the most interesting song on Yes and the song is really a grower. The mood is similar to "It couldn't happen here" and also Neil's double-tracked voice is used in "Being boring" (ironically the most-loved PSB songs among fans...)
This is an absolutley brilliant track, all tracks through actually! This seemed quite strange to me in the beginning, but when I listen to it now, I can just dream away on a place somewhere else. It is very relaxing, as it is a bit sad in the beginning: "That's it, the end. But you'll get over it, my friend." It very much feels like an end song. Like Being Boring did on the Discovery tour vid. Absolutley love that vid. =D
It's not only the most interesting song lyrically, it's also the most interesting musically. I'm a musician and I think, they are exploring in this song sound worlds, they never did in the past.
Nos igen, szuper lett, az egész album!!! Én a Depeche Mode-ot jobban szeretem, mint a PSB-t, de valljuk be őszintén, a PSB most sokkal jobb albumot hozott össze mint a Mode!
Nem tudjátok, jönnek kis hazánkba koncertezni valamikor?
oh,akkor rendben. Amint gondolom már észre vetted útálom ha valaki elvárja a sztároktól(meg általában a másik embertől) hogy tökéletes legyen. Mikor igazából senki sem tökéletes. Én bevallom egyáltalán nem tudok franciául,de boldog volnék ha eltudnám úgy mondani mint Neil.
A Pet Shop Boys-tól már az is tökéletes, hogy léteznek és sokkal jobb lemezeket adnak ki, mint a hasonló stílusú kortársaik, pl.a Depeche Mode, Erasure, A-ha, New Order és a többiek.
Ez az album önmagáért beszél, minden hibájával együtt a legjobb munkájuk 16 éve!
If you do not like this song, listen to it on your iPod when you lay in bed at night to sleep. You will hear its brilliance as your mind aimlessly flows with the sounds.
This song sounds good. The vocal arrangement is not that strong. But the production is okay. I have listened to the their whole new album. And I really am not sure if I'm gonna buy the album. Overall I miss the beautiful strong melody's in their older songs. But maybe I'm too hard on them. I'm gonna listen to the songs again and again. Maybe I need them to grow on me. Like for example the latest KEANE album. First I found it weak but now I find it very strong.
they have gone back to the drawing board, haven taken what they know best over the years and put it all into one new fantastic album, they are back on top and are heading for another number 1 album. YES
Beautiful masterpiece of art, Neil sounds beautiful in French <3

I still think Very is better, but the songs are strong enough and more unified than ever.
It's almost the same category as Please, Actually and Behaviour were.
It's not a nonsense confusement like the half of the Bilingual album and some songs on Nightlife.
It's quality.

This song is not weak at all as many "fans" it say.
Only it's not so catchy and fast like the other songs are on the cd, but the lyrics are fantastic!
It requires a bit reflection to understand it entirely and the simple minded "fans"are probably incapable to do it.
What a pity!

People can say it's the worst song of the album.
I can't agree more because Love etc. is worse.(for me)
I think this whole album is a highlight compared to the fact they exist since 28 years and have recorded several great albums.
In 1986 nobady could have said they will make music still in 2009.
Other bands dissappear or become shit but they always proove the talent of playing quality music.
This melodies are cathy, enjoyable and very strong too!
We must respect them forever!
