Yesterday. Submitted on: 2009-10-30 |

There are a lot of bands today that are trying to resurrect the 80's sound, yet the Pet Shop Boys were Actually there, and are still doing this kind of music better than anyone.
A welcome return to their classic sound, "Yes" finds the Boys recovering from the malaise of their previous LP "Fundamental", which was quite good in its own way, yet at times was very somber and overly orchestral.
"Yes' is full of the synthetic sweep and disco pulse that Neil and Chris have perfected in their 25-plus year career, and its general mood is more upbeat and positive than their other recent albums. Lead single "Love, etc." is delightfully bitchy, and follow-up "Did You See Me Coming" is quite hooky and radio-friendly. And just listenening to standout tracks like "King of Rome" and "Pandemonium", you'll swear its 1987 again. These guys just own this genre, plain and simple.
Although its doubtful that any new Pet Shop Boys music will get airplay in the USA, for their worldwide audience (and their built-in one here), "Yes" is the best release in years from these perennial disco divas.

| Oh boy. Where to start? I have been a huge fan of PSB since 1996. My first PSB CD was Very. After that Bilingual. Then I had to have everything they owned. I spent days on Amazon, in record stores, on the web, finding every single, every CD and even vinyl. I loved it all. I was even worried when I heard about the mellow "Release". But I loved that one, too. A lot. So, I was counting days to get Yes!. Well, I have tried and tried, but it's a big No!. More like a no-no. The trademarks of PSB are catchy melodies, clever lyrics and flawless arrangements. I don't find any of that here. I have to struggle to recall a single melody from this CD and I really hate some of the lyrics. What's worse, it sounds like it's really only one very long song instead of 11 different ones. And not even a good song. Just a long, dull, irritating background for a low budget movie. At this point two singles have been released. I bought Love, etc. I can't bring myself to listen to it again. Then I heard Beautiful People was next. This will be the first PSB single I don't buy. The melody is amateurish and the lyrics have been heard in so many ways so many times before. I could go on about each track on the CD, but it means I would have to listen to them all again. I just can't. I hope the Pet Shop Boys revisit what went wrong here (too much reliance on non-PSB contributions). They are a unique act and need to cultivate what makes them different. |

It is an excellent product, one of the best pop albums of this year, a must have for pet shop boys fun, as well as for people who is not, the best songs in the album are love itc, did you see me coming?, pandemomium and building a wall. PSB continue to mantain their quality creating new songs...
Just listen to it! |

The best album of this amazing duo.....you really have to listen to this masterpiece.Here some of the best tracks...
Are you a romantic?
You will love.

-Vulnerable
-King Of Rome
Do you like to dance songs with very smart and human lyrics.
- Love etc.
- Did You See Me Coming?
- More Than A Dream
-Pandemonium
Really great songs about life, love and dreams....
The entire disc lets you listen to songs full of human situations told in a unique way in which feelings are expressed with true genius and innocence ( unbelievable, like when you first fell in love.)
While this duo uses all his wits to send a real and critical message, something that many musicians are afraid to do.
The second disc is for dancing....the same great songs..
I REALLY LOVE THE SONG , More than a dream (Magical dub) .
Believe me, this is not another dance music record.
