Pet Shop Boys - Being Boring (Germany Awards)

Oh, I remember this performance! I had to live through a terrible week afterwards because everyone kept teasing me about my favourite band getting an award for selling 250 albums (that's what the idiot presenter says in German...)

They are so brilliant songwriters and great stage presence and however Neil is sooo cute

Why this is brilliant ? Because it`s one of the best ever written.

Why couldn´t he use that haircut throughout the whole album? He had a quite nice haircut during Introspective and has half of it left on this one. Why did he cut his hair? :P
Otherwise, I believe this is their best song ever. Absolutley love never being boring. It spreads happiness.

Neil cut his hair short because his hair was getting thin. It would have looked stupid if it was still that long.

While most of the later 80's music videos and pop show performances are choreographed to be flattering and not show him from an angle you can see it, interviews aren't. The interview where they're with Liza on Wogan, he turns his head to Liza for a split second and you can see his bald spot at the center of his hair spiral, and there's an interview with Finnish subtitles where he looks down for a moment and you can see it thinning in the front. Even here, you can start to see the spot.

intresting, if you look in the Performance tour book, he had that hair he had in the late 80's, ant the photos was from the spring of '91

This was a song that slowly worked its way into my brain and, like you, I eventually came to regard as their greatest. The lyrics are almost painfully nostalgic.

what a great song, one of my favourites. I love them, aguante los pet shop boys, desde argentina leandro

great song
