One of my favourite groups since the iconic " West End Girls " Some great singles and albums and a very good live act. Back with Electric, their best work in a decade and this little beauty is going viral, an Ibiza anthem this summer I think.

Any fans ?

Yes, best album in ages and a great show at the O2 last month. Vocal, Love is a bourgeois construct and Thursday are great new tracks and thoroughly recommended.

Thursday will be a summer hit but the stand out is Vocal for me.

Not a fan, but used to like them to a fashion in the 80's.
I can see how they could use their know-how/talent to have another successful period and I think the musical climate is perfect right now for them.

Not a big fan myself but love Al Stewart who has a voice that is almost identical to Neil Tennant

I did like What have I done to deserve this though as I am a massive Dusty Springfield fan

I love Tennants vocals and lyrics and the deadpan Lowe. They are a major force of UK music for 30 years. Always interesting and self effacing. Outrageous clothes and silly hats but the talent to back up their bombastic front. A national treasure for me.

Can't stand them and they are Gooners which simply adds to my antipathy.

Neil Tennant had a house in Rye. I waited on him and Janet Street-Porter. She ordered a creme caramel, which was highly amusing given her horrid voice.
