Sold it out. He's written a load of great songs. Is solo stuff such as 'Had a Dream' album is also great prog rock/ pop music.

Em No Would be a criminal waste of a fantastic live act who completely smashed it on WH the year the Stones played. Yea bring them back but as headliners on either WH or the Other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernSoul52 Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago I know they smashed the Other headline slot the other year, which arguably shows where the festival considers their currency. But Pet Shop Boys would have been a good Legends Slot. Possibly work much better under cover of darkness though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without the staging / lighting, it'd almost be 2 blokes standing still for 75 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernSoul52 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Yeah, it does come with the spectacle as such. Hmmm... Tears for Fears then. One of the biggest albums of 1985, celebrates its anniversary. Not saying you play it in full, but gives them a timely sell. 1 Everybody Wants to Rule the World 2 Change 3 Mad World 4 No Small Thing 5 Break It Down Again 6 Head Over Heels 7 Sowing the Seeds of Love 8 The Tipping Point 9 Suffer the Children 10 Secret World 11 Women in Chains 12 Advice for the Young at Heart 13 Pale Shelter 14 Creep 15 Shout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted 30 minutes ago Report Share Posted 30 minutes ago I'd be well up for Tears for Fears. Tarred with a bit of an 80s brush but they have some genuinely great tunes, and Tipping Point was one of my top albums of 2022. @stuartbert two hats put me on to this podcast in general and this one in particular, picks apart what makes Everybody Wants To Rule The World such a damn fine song https://strongsongspodcast.com/episode/everybody-wants-to-rule-the-world-by-tears-for-fears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balti-pie Posted 17 minutes ago Report Share Posted 17 minutes ago Strong songs is a great, great podcast! Though it has made me critically analyse various parts of songs i really love, to try and distil why i like em 😄 i absolutely love a resolving melody, its so satisfying, and i had to be told why i love the things i love. Its made me appreciate Kate Bush even more, the episode on her was splendid. Wish he'd cover more heavy stuff, though . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you do 😉 There's definitely some episodes I have to skip, as he's just talking in terms that I don't understand in the least! But some of them are great, particularly loved the ones he did on Africa and Call Me Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
