PET SHOP BOYS, “The Pop Kids”
The best thing that Pet Shop Boys could ever have done for their career is to bring back what they do so much better than many and put it up front – witty, electrifying music designed for clubs. 2013’s Electric was the result, and my favourite song of that year was the magnificent “Vocal”. Neil and Chris carry on with more of what their fans absolutely want the most with “The Pop Kids”. Like 80’s hits such as “Rent”, “Heart” and “Being Boring”, “The Pop Kids” is a simple, direct tale – wonder, excitement and love are all prominent, resulting in a warm, effusive song that should continue the lads’ prominence as revered champions of the dance music genre. It’s from their upcoming album Super due on April 1. Check out the lyric video up top and get the EP on iTunes.
