Avec New Order, Pet Shop Boys est un des groupes pop anglais des annees 80 qui a le mieux retenu la lecon du disco. Vers la fin des 70's, le ras-le-bol du guitar- hero et des groupes dinosaures a la virtuosite ampoulee commence a se faire sentir. "Saturday Night Fever" deboule, et sa musique, joyeuse et insouciante, grimpe au sommet des charts. Partout dans le monde, on celebre ce qui n'est pas encore devenu la dance et Giorgio Moroder, Village People et Donna Summer enregistrent leurs plus gros hits. En Angleterre, Neil Tennant et Chris Lowe, tetes pensantes de Pet Shop Boys, sont sensibles a cette frime exaltee : paillettes, fringues insensees, tout est de la partie pour faire de la disco une fete delirante. Si les Pet Shop Boys ont retenu les lecons du genre, ils n'ignorent pas non plus la pop de Bowie, le glam de T. Rex, la noevoe-muzak de Devo ou le raffinement des Smiths. Dansant, sensible aux beats techno et propre a squatter les discotheques comme Top Of The Pops, ce disque, qui condense le meilleur du duo, est une disco(radio)graphie gorgee d'optimisme. -- Philippe Robert

Bon moment bon cd pour prendre la longue route du travail. Peu connu et en perte de vitesse, les albulms qui nous ont laisses, eux, sont pas mal du tout. Duo Etrange, mais c'est a decouvrir, au moins un p'tit peu. Moi, j'aime cela.
 Essential, actually... Décembre 28, 2005

I 'came of age' in the 80s, and was working in London when the PSB first began releasing music. 'West End Girls' is a quintessentially London song; I immediately went out and bought their album. I've been purchasing all their albums since. This collection contains the major songs (the single releases) from their first four albums, plus a few new songs. For anyone who wants to have a good collection of 80s music, this is a must for the collection. The disco is present but not banal nor overpowering; the lyrics are intelligent and neither syrupy-sung nor screamed. The videos which go along with these songs are clever and artfully done. The playlist includes:
West End Girls -- a number one hit in America, Europe, Britain and Asia
Love comes quickly
Opportunities
Suburbia -- music perhaps inspired by EastEnders
It's a Sin -- another international no. 1 hit
What have I done to deserve this - a collaboration with Dusty Springfield
Rent
Always on my mind -- a remake of the classic
Heart
Domino dancing
Left to my own devices
It's alright
So hard
Being boring - name derived from Gertrude Stein
Where the streets have no name (can't take my eyes off of you) -- a combination of songs cleverly done
Jealousy
DJ Culture -- a new song released with the album
Was it worth it? -- another new song, released later The PSB don't easily fit into any particular category -- while they are gay performers, they are not exclusively 'gay' performers; their music reached a wide audience and was not preachy (in fact, their song 'How Can You Expect to be Taken Seriously' consciously pokes fun at pop stars who become spokesmen and 'experts' simply for being famous in another field). Unfortunately, due to the limitations imposed upon the length of CDs, this song had to be omitted from this collection (it does appear on the video compilation, however). Rolling Stone recently described them as being 'the Grateful Dead of the europop scene'. This is rather close to the mark in that they have dedicated followers who devour everything they produce as well as a more general audience who like them without obsessing. There are a few US No. 1 hits on this album, as well as songs that were much bigger hits in the broader world as American trends in music (at least as driven by radio and MTV airtime) have changed while the PSB sound is very much the same. And of course, the over-the-top disco version of 'Always on my Mind' makes me laugh and sing along every time I hear it. Neil Tennant has such a wonderful dead-pan delivery, and Chris Lowe's artful use of brass, string and bass together with backing beats, all from the electronic keyboard, is truly a wonder. This is an essential CD to have to understand the 1980s, London in the 80s, pop culture in the 80s. Also, to just have a good time! A great discography.
Une excellente introduction aux Pet Shop Boys ! Août 31, 2003

Il s'agit de la liste complete de leurs singles, de 1986 a 1991, classee par ordre chronologique, dont beaucoup de tubes.
Les melodies sont instantanement memorisables.
C'est un bon condense du talent Pet Shop Boys, meme si certaines chansons peuvent paraitre assez datees.
