Yeah, it's always annoying when he's not given enough if any credit. Much like the 1991 US Tonight Show appearance where the cameras were focusing mostly on Neil, which Chris noticed from the nearby monitors so he left the stage.

Pet Shop Boys just surprisingly dropped a new track:


An beautiful anti-war and anti Putin song. It's a demo, so not much production and fiddling.

Propaganda...

Then there should be an anti-Zelenskij track too. Just to reach the balance.

Propaganda released their album last year, which was pretty good (under the name xPropaganda)! Featured Claudia Bruecken and Susan Freitag, produced by Stephen Lipson, who did their first album "A Secret Wish".

But I'm pretty sure Neil Tennant, who has a degree in Russian history, knows something about the country's past (which is what Living in the past is about). This new song is one in a long line of Russia-songs PSB have written: My October Symphony, The Silver Age, Bolshy, heck, they wrote the soundtrack of famous Russian movie Battleship Potemkin! (a full list of PSB Russia inspired songs can be found here: http://www.geowayne.com/newDesign/lists/russian.htm ). Russia is like a common thread in their work.

And then there's them opening MTV Russia (footage used in the Go West video), playing Live 8 in Moscow. In other words: Russia has played an significant part in their career.
