I haven't heard such an amazing fusion of orchestral and dance since I heard Che Guevara and Debussy to a disco beat.

The Pet Shop Boys have been doing this for over 35 years now, a truly cerebral lyrical group who incorporates impeccable music and melody. I don't know if there's any other group out there like these guys today. I definitely dub PSB a Supergroup

Can't stop hearing this song over and over and over again
Absolute wonder of a song. I just can’t get over it. Going strong for PSB at 16 years old baby. “When you walked out you did me a favor, it’s absolutely clear to me, that love is a bourgeois construct, just like they said at university.” 🎉🎉❤️❤️❤️
One of the best Pet Shop Boys tracks. Loved it from the first time I heard it.

I agree. True masterpiece. This one, Fluorescent, , The Last to die, and Thursday just got me right from the start. Since of course most songs anywhere take a couple listens to get the feel. PSB has a way of getting into your heart and imagination right off quite often.

Yes, and it's absolutely a shame that this one has never been allowed to be a hit altough it was a single. 20-25 earlier this would've been a sure number 1! Shame on today's record buyers (or rather: track downloaders) ^^
I can't say how much I love this song. Firstly, the music in itself is brilliant, particularly with the 'sample' of Henry Purcell/Michael Nyman (which really brings that 'bourgeois' touch to the song, of course, hehe). But also : the lyrics. I love them ; they're hilarious and very clever !

The first few seconds remind me a bit of an Enya song

The best of pop in the whole world: Pet Shop Boys.....What else?
This must be awarded as song of the year!!! It's truly AMAZING!!! Pet Shop Boys are the best on Earth, any other singer or group can only LEARN from Neil and Chris. PSB RULE!!!!!!!
After hearing the "comeback" hype about Electric, I expected a good PSB album. But I didn't anticipate THIS! This album (and this track in particular) blew way past my expectations. I am in awe of their ability to constantly confound expectations. They're unstoppable.
Did you know neil is now 59? Just amazing talent. He and Neil were the soundtrack to my youth in the 80s. Love Neil's vocal performances and the soaring themes. EPIC!
A perfect moment for my soul : listen this music; sorry, better my trip over the clouds, enjoying the sunset, at the Atlantic Ocean, in my last trip to Amsterdam. WWWWOOOOOOWWWWWW ! ! !
What's not to like? Love the PSB's music.
Sociologists' anthem right here!

Clever mix of two the 1980's greatest artists - Michael Nyman and the Pet Shop Boys. I love this...takes me right back to my youth and happy times in the early 1980's. Thank you Neil and Chris and all involved.
The first 10 seconds or so sound like the beginning of an Enya song. Anyhow, this song is one of PSB's masterpieces.

For a long time I have handled Pet Shop Boys as a crossover band geniously not turning classical music into pop music but the other way around. Listening to Introspective quite a few times has given me the notion that each piece is something like a movement of a symphony. On top of it all, this Purcell piece is the theme of one of my very favourite movies the Draughtman's Contract. All in one, thank you indeed Neill and Chris. God, what an experience it'd be to have a beer with you in Budapest.
One of the best music composition of 2000s. I saw them in Philharmonic music hall in Washington DC. Best concert, so much energy and they played all their best new and old songs!
Chasing Sheep is Best Left to Shepherds is a piece of minimalist music from the soundtrack for The Draughtsman's Contract, written by Michael Nyman. It is based on a ground bass from the Prelude to Act III, Scene 2 of Henry Purcell’s opera, King Arthur.[1]

I'm just a kid that wasn't around to witness PSB the 80's, but personally, this track reminds me a lot of "Go West", so it's good in my books. Overall, I really like the album.
