Ok ok, it was a joke. Actually, I would like to hear the PSB do some Beach Boys covers. And collaborate with Prince.

Eminem. Duh.

did adam f really just produce a psb single?

― jess (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 21:49 (twenty-one years ago)

Daft Punk.

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 21:54 (twenty-one years ago)

why doesn't jack white take a stab at it.

― Thea (Thea), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 21:55 (twenty-one years ago)

franz ferdinand

― adam west (adamwest), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 21:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Alizee seconded.

The rumoured collaboration with Sophie Ellis Bextor, really, was too perfect an idea in theory to work in practice.

― edward o (edwardo), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 22:29 (twenty-one years ago)

Someone really cool, like Aqualung.

― adam. (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 22:30 (twenty-one years ago)

Rammstein, and they're doing it thank god.

― The Good Dr. Bill (Andrew Unterberger), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 22:39 (twenty-one years ago)

scott walker.

― frenchbloke (frenchbloke), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 22:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Norah Jones, because she's got a great voice and so far all her production has been a major snoozefest.

― rentboy (rentboy), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 22:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Not Eisenstein, by all accounts.

― Wooden (Wooden), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 22:58 (twenty-one years ago)

The Rammstein remix is EXCELLENT. Yes! Yes! And the chorus of "Mein Teil" goes "You are what you eat, and you're eating my dick". Or similar. Greatest lyrics ever.

― edward o (edwardo), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 22:59 (twenty-one years ago)

Axl Rose is a fan and I'd LOVE it if they remixed "November Rain"!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 23:21 (twenty-one years ago)

That comes as NO surprise (Axl being a fan), but good call.

― adam. (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 23:25 (twenty-one years ago)

They might almost make it listenable!

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 September 2004 00:13 (twenty-one years ago)

be gone with you!

― adam. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 23 September 2004 00:16 (twenty-one years ago)

The whole Use Your Illusion deal was one good album and one bad one equally split among the two discs...and "November Rain" was a liability.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 September 2004 00:18 (twenty-one years ago)

You are king of wrong right now! You just won every olympic gold medal in WRONG! You have obviously just been beamed down from the planet WRONG! How wrong are you, Ned? VERY

― adam. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 23 September 2004 00:20 (twenty-one years ago)

I do not agree with you either.

― adam. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 23 September 2004 00:20 (twenty-one years ago)

I believe you spoke.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 September 2004 00:24 (twenty-one years ago)

my word-hole did open, yes.

― adam. (nordicskilla), Thursday, 23 September 2004 00:25 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm glad we had this talk.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 23 September 2004 00:26 (twenty-one years ago)

*shakes Ned's hand, offers business card*

call me, we'll do lunch.

*leaves*

Fischerspooner could teach them a thing or two about sincerity.

― the surface noise (slight return) (electricsound), Thursday, 23 September 2004 01:26 (twenty-one years ago)

'November Rain' is an epic of Wagnerian proportions. It is the 'Ride of the Valkyries' of pop-metal, but melancholic and Romantic as well. Anyone who doesn't like 'November Rain' should be reported to the department of Homeland Security for links to terrorism.

Actually it's kind of silly son, but Genuis, oh yes, in the Spirit of GREAT GENIUS.

― The TAO that can be Posted is not the TAO! (The Tao that can be Posted is), Thursday, 23 September 2004 01:43 (twenty-one years ago)

SONG for fuck's sake. Jeez LOUISE.

― The TAO that can be Posted is not the TAO! (The Tao that can be Posted is), Thursday, 23 September 2004 01:43 (twenty-one years ago)

Missy Elliott

(Herbert was a good choice as well)

― Kevin Erickson, Thursday, 23 September 2004 04:59 (twenty-one years ago)

they should collaborate with new order, just to make that other thread more interesting. (and no, the stuff on the first electronic album doesn't count: i'm talking a full-on both-bands affair.)

That Xenomania mix has got to happen sooner or later, right?

Mike Skinner

― Siegbran (eofor), Thursday, 23 September 2004 10:41 (twenty-one years ago)

Alison Moyet. Or Naomi Campbell.

― Joseph McCombs (Joseph McCombs), Thursday, 23 September 2004 12:22 (twenty-one years ago)

what does maria b mean by that?

― piscesboy, Thursday, 23 September 2004 12:26 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm thinking of a voice to contrast with that of Tennant for a duet, like Leonard Cohen or, even better, Stephin Merritt.

Duh, Jimmy Tamborello/Dntel. Obviously.

― BlastsOfStatic (BlastsofStatic), Wednesday, 29 September 2004 16:04 (twenty-one years ago)

New Order and Johnny Marr! Oh, wait...

― schwantz, Wednesday, 29 September 2004 16:12 (twenty-one years ago)

Steve Albini, you know it makes sense.

― Billy Dods (Billy Dods), Wednesday, 29 September 2004 17:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Sarah Cracknell

Yeah, a Sarah Cracknell or St. Etienne collaboration would be heaven. I don't know what the PSB think of St. Etienne though, I keep asking them (through their "questions" section on their website) but they've never responded. I'm beginning to think they are not very fond of them.

― daavid (daavid), Wednesday, 29 September 2004 18:50 (twenty-one years ago)

why the hell aren't they on the Nancy Sinatra album? (or are they?)

― Matos W.K. (M Matos), Wednesday, 29 September 2004 19:06 (twenty-one years ago)

I don't think so

The promo for Compact Pet Shop Boys (the best of the PSB back catalogue remodelled by Kompakt artists and released on a series of 3-inch CDs) sounds very good indeed.

― dh, Thursday, 30 September 2004 22:08 (twenty-one years ago)

WTF???

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Friday, 1 October 2004 08:30 (twenty-one years ago)

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 1 October 2004 08:59 (twenty-one years ago)

if that's a joke I'm going to kill you

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 1 October 2004 08:59 (twenty-one years ago)

tee hee.

that should read "sounds very good indeed, in my imagination."

― dh, Friday, 1 October 2004 12:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Brain Wilson. No joke.

― lovebug starski (lovebug starski), Friday, 1 October 2004 12:28 (twenty-one years ago)

I guess I have to remove the "compact pet shop boys" from my soulseek wishlist, and then... call back the friends I have called since to tell them about it...

― snowballing (snowballing), Friday, 1 October 2004 14:02 (twenty-one years ago)

that should read "sounds very good indeed, in my imagination."

I have to hurt you now.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 1 October 2004 14:06 (twenty-one years ago)

Antony and the Johnsons

― mottdeterre (mottdeterre), Friday, 1 October 2004 17:08 (twenty-one years ago)

Antony and the Johnsons seconded. 'Twould be cool.
Also: Masami Akita or Steven Stapleton.

― noodle vague (noodle vague), Friday, 1 October 2004 17:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Momus motioned here.

― t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Friday, 1 October 2004 17:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Steve Albini, you know it makes sense.

Hmmmmmm. Given Neil's recent affinity for the guitar, this could actually work. Neil on guitar and vocal, Chris on preprogrammed workstation synth, live off the floor, no overdubs.

Alternately, a revamped Big Black with Neil singing lead and Chris sitting in a corner, looking miserable.

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Saturday, 2 October 2004 14:07 (twenty-one years ago)

Mark E Smith - It'd be classic.

― mzui, Saturday, 2 October 2004 14:11 (twenty-one years ago)

If Freddy Mercury (peace be upon him) was still with us, he'd be my pick.

― The TAO that can be Posted is not the TAO! (The Tao that can be Posted is), Sunday, 3 October 2004 01:01 (twenty-one years ago)

Actually Momus suggested that the PSB should release an entire album of covers of his own songs. I think its not a bad idea.
