1. Why did
you decide to call the Hits album PopArt?
2. What have you remixed or changed?
3. Listening
to the hits one after another is a reminder that you have always written great
songs...
4. OK, here
we go. Track 1 is Go West
5. Is this the original 7" mix of Suburbia?
6. Next up is
Se a Vida É? What does that actually mean?
7. Next up, one of the Pet Shop Boys' classic
collaborations: What Have I Done to Deserve This?
With Dusty Springfield.
8. A cover
version next, of a song by Elvis Presley. Chris, are you a fan?
9. Next, a very Pet Shop Boys kind of title - I Wouldn't Normally Do This
Kind of Thing...
10. Home and
Dry, the next track, is more 'traditional' sounding, in musical terms...
11. And now, a UK 1 hit, Heart
12. There's a
really hopeful and optimistic lyric in the next song, Miracles...
13. How do you
feel about Loves Comes Quickly, the next song?
14. It's a Sin
seems to be based on a Catholic upbringing. Any autobiography
here?
15. Domino
Dancing is next. Is this song about jealousy?
16. A more
optimistic track next, Before. Before what?
17. New York City Boy: this is a real show stopper.
18. The track
It's Alright seems to sum up a philosophy about life and music...
19. A medley
now: I Can't Take My Eyes Off You and the U2 song Where The Streets Have No
Name. What was it that the U2 lead singer, Bono, said, when he heard your
version?
20. The last
track on the Pop CD is A Red Letter Day
21. CD2, Art. Track 1 is Left to My Own Devices. An autobiographical song?
22. Next, the
end of an affair: I Don't Know What You Want but I Can't Give it Any More
23. A new
single next: Flamboyant. Tell us about this track
24. Being
Boring comes from a quote from Zelda Fitzgerald, doesn't it?
25. Next up,
Can You Forgive Her?
26. Now, the
track that started it all: West End Girls...
27. Next, a
song that was written about politicians. Unusual subject
matter?
28. Tell us
about So Hard.
29. Rent is
next; and it has a hi-energy tempo that has been altered, hasn't it?
30. Next track is Jealousy
31. DJ Culture
next: how society changes...
32. You Only
Tell Me You Love Me When You're Drunk. I imagine that's a very Chris Lowe sort
of title?
33. Next up,
Liberation, a song about love - and trust
34. Paninaro
95, the anthem for Italian youth...
35. Opportunities
next. Who's got the brains and who's got the looks?
36. Yesterday
When I Was Mad: what's this song about?
37. The drums
on the intro of Single-Bilingual, and that samba beat, remind me a bit of a
Paul Simon track...
38. And
finally, the show stopper to beat all show stoppers! A medley from West Side
Story.
