Great thread! I love PSB rarities and will post them as the spirit moves me.

Here's a live version of "What Have I Done To Deserve This" sung as a duet with Melissa Etheridge. Sound quality is OK.

Remember Napster? Not the lame, barely breathing version it turned into today (is it even still around?) but the revolutionary turn of the century original incarnation.

Absolutely!



Let me now share with you a bit of insight into the iconic [i]West End Girls[/i].
http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?a ... E33F37574A
From the BBC Radio 2 documenatry "Pet Shop Boys, Really!"

Keeping in mind the hip-hopesque origins of West End Girls, listen to this early version of the song, the Montreal 7", with an edgier and more "enthusiastic" vocal delivery by Neil replete with additional lyrics.

The Pet Shop Boys have always had a finger on the pulse of New York street culture. From the very first collaboration with Bobby O. to later workings with Shep Pettibone, Danny Tenaglia and David Morales for example, the Pet Shop Boys have established themselves as dance club masters. I'm a big collector of their singles and remixes for this very reason. Plus with their New Wave edge, very original branding, cool fashion sense and museum quality graphic design how could I not be seduced to the Pet Side? [;)][:D]
