Discography - Complete Singles Collection by Pet Shop Boys - DeepRiffs

COMPILATION

Although the Pet Shop Boys are a rarity, a dance-pop band that makes well-structured and satisfying albums, Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe are at heart pop classicists who appreciate good hooks above all else. Their brilliant collaboration with Dusty Springfield, "What Have I Done to Deserve This?" and their even-better mash-up of U2 and Frankie Valli hits, "Where the Streets Have No Name (I Can't Take My Eyes Off You)," reveal the duo's underlying respect for and mastery of classic pop forms. The other 16 songs here range from the breezy "Love Comes Quickly" and the Latin-tinged "Domino Dancing" to the more mature and emotionally weighty "Jealousy" and "Being Boring," with all of the tracks placed chronologically to chart the duo's increasing abilities. Best of all, Discography: The Complete Singles Collection gathers the original 7" single mixes of all 18 songs, as opposed to the longer dance mixes (and often very different album versions) found on previous CDs, performing a valuable service for fans who first discovered them via the radio instead of the dancefloor.
