It’s great to see Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe actually in the video for “Monkey Business”. Believe it or not, the last clip where Pet Shop Boys appeared was on “Thursday” six years ago.
On this occasion, they are back with a groovy/funky melody that lacks the energy it requires to be played at the clubs. Perhaps, I believe it was designed to be remixed…
Anyway, their 14th studio album, ‘Hotspot’ produced by Stuart Price sounds pretty amazing. I swear I can’t stop playing the upbeat anthems “Happy People”, as well as, “Wedding In Berlin”. On the other hand, Electro-Pop gems like “Hoping For A Miracle”, and “Only The Dark” are particularly blissful.
