Who is still listening to this masterpiece in 2024 after covid 19, social media, the death of good pop music and the world heading for a fall?
Looks like your getting away with it.
Me, pure genius 😊
Me
Yes rediscovered this sing, forgot his good it is
Sensacional! Dá um aperto no coração de tanta saudade.😢
I love Neil's voice, you could recognize it anywhere.
Neil tennant is the complete musician , can do it all and yes his voice is very unique every word is crystal clear ,nicely spoken dude , the younger generation of musical talent could learn a thing or two from this musical genius 🙏
Yes, Neil's voice so recognizable!❤
Absolutely!
It's time for another Electronic album.
33 years old and still feels so fresh
I'm 71......Love it .!!
25 here, my da would always play it. LOVE IT
50 here, remember when this first came out, still love it.
2024 anyone ?
Me🙋🏻♀️
Yep and until yesterday listening to Satellite Radio and discovering this NOT the Pet Shop Boys. Always learning
❤ this song always
@@troyclegg9849 But Neil Tennant's vocals are distinctive and sublime, so he's a standout on this. Great song.
Reporting in 2024
Neil Tennant on backing vocals and Johnny Marr on guitar.
To say that Electronic had too much tallent is an understatement.
I'm 57 these years of music were the best. I love this song. Just brilliant.
Same, and agreed.
Yep...grunge had some quality music but eventually killed a great musical era
when Neil Tennant is your back up singer you have an over abundance of talent in your band
And on top of that, Johnny Marr.
Agree!! Without Tennant it wouldn't have been a hit.
It's an intentional Super Group... has my 3 favourite artists of all time. It was written by all 3.
Rockwell and Michael Jackson
@@carlosgalvez9312 without tennat it would have sounded lilke Mozart, he sounds like a boring annoying mumbling
pet shop boys, new order, the smiths.... what a legendary mix
Morrisey 😊👍
I could just leave this song on repeat all day
Did you ever hear the Johnny Marr version with his solo band?
I have. When this first came out, this track lived in my head. My neighbors hated it.
@@krillin876he played it when I saw him!! So good
Yep.
Me too.
The greg wilson version is really good for this!
Joy Division,The Smiths and The Pet Shop Boys.3 of the greatest bands of all time together.What more can you ask for.Genius
Joy Division/New order.
Plus a little bit of Psychedelic Furs.... 😆😆😆😆
producer: ABC
and Soft Cell
New order *
Pet Shop Boys + New Order = PERFECTION
And Jouhhny Fucking Marr!!! You can totally hear him throughout this song!
@@carolshaw5257 He sings??
Remy Andersen PSB/NO and Johnny Marr
@@no15minutecities Guitar 😐
And the very talented Jimi Goodwin of Doves.
Manchester bands in the 90s was something else what a ere
❤
Crazy how Bernard Sumner can go from Joy Division to New Order then Electronic capturing a similar sound yet slightly more modern each time. I feel myself being obsessed with this song after following all 3 groups.
Oh I'm having a right night of it, 2024 anyone?
Oh yes 👍
Yep. Me. Oh the memories ❤
Released on 4 December 1989. Truly the last great song of the ‘80s.
Hello Kitty Lover Man! Thank you for the correction. Corrected with help from the “Grammar Guru.”
newsroom.unl.edu/announce/snr/2789/15239
Yeah.maybe yeah
I remember when it released. KROQ in L.A. used to play it of course it helped Johnny Marr was in the band
Fabulous song. But it shares the title with the Sundays' "This Is Where the Story Ends," also a 12/89 release.
@@carlhorowitz6321 The title of that title is "HERE'S Where the Story Ends" :)
Please, can we just bring back the 80's already?
This was 1990
@@pinkpantherer I would give anything to go back to the 80' and 90's. I hate the world we live in today.
@@pinkpantherer This single was actually released in 1989. But yeah close to both periods.
@@cinemar 1990
Nope 1989, Neil says so: ua-cam.com/video/jMYbSdNxbeU/v-deo.htmlsi=6zrKwq82KvzBiyPs
All of these 3 bands rocked, Johnny on the Guitars, Neil Tenant and Bernard Sumner totally killl it. We need these guys to come back with some new tracks ! it's almost 2023 come one guys who wants to see Electronic with some new tracks ?
I approve this message ⬆️
Not forgetting Johnny Marr on guitar....
I think this is one of the most beautiful songs ever made, really.
It's up there with the best.
Yes I think it is
Brilliant
English talent. North west
💯❤
This is 1989 in 4 minutes. Classic tune.
Colin Jennings of Spennymoor ?
I remember spennymoor from when i was in the army .1989 was great
No Birmingham. Where is Spennymoor? Twined with hell on earth?
In the darkest depths of the North East 😂😂 , I am amused by your comment.
There is no way in the world to express just how wonderful and meaningful this song is to me. It will forever be my favorite. Never ever getting tired of this. MAGIC!
Agreed! Timeless
The line "However I look its clear to see, I love you more than you love me" Hits real hard
Every couple has that? Or am I a cynic?
Absolutely ❤❤❤
@@geoffbaxter1509Yes. And I think I’m the one who loves more. Shitty feeling.
It does
All is life he was getting away with not being heartbroken, until now.
The production of this song is impeccable. Strings, synth and a Spanish guitar, Bernard and Neil… what’s not to love! Such an uplifting track.
bass line is *clean. as. fuck.*
@@EconAtheist Marr's fingerprints all over that - always thought it was weird to have him as the central partner in a very electronic (no pun intended) act, but he probably contributed a lot more than just guitar and writing - he might be a wizard on the synths for all we know.
Paul dagger from Bristol?
Anne Dudley (Art of Noise) arranged the strings. There is an instrumental version as well which I love :)
What about Johnny?
Soundtrack to my life, literally
Sadly, me too…
Amen@@sylviaochoa4527
Two of the best vocals ever put together.
Timeless.
Ever❤️
It's wonderful isn't it, even back then as a 13 year old kid I loved both bands, this was a firecracker of a combination. I didn't really know much about the Smiths then but I did when they released their hits compilation in 1992, and that also ensured I knew Johnny Marr was a genius too.
Nowadays, nobody knows their names, unless you had a parent, who brought their kids up to appreciate true music!
Two of the best non-singing singers ever.
@@kildogery one of the most non-sense comments ever
I love how Neil comes in as almost a bored outsider two minutes in, but he was never being boring.
Love how you tie another beautiful song into your response! 💕🎶😎
@@madamezimba1007 Why, thank you, Madame. Being Boring is probably my favourite PSB track.
It also looks like he's dabbing at the 2:10 mark in the video, decades before it became a thing! Hadn't noticed that until now.
I guess this song was a New Life for Neil eh?
He had too much time for himself.
Everyone that comments on these 80s bangers is great , we grew up in the best time
1989-90 was a mysterious, hopeful and happy time in my life.
I was born in 2005, I just have good taste thanks to my mother, born 1973.
Clothes, hot hatches, no mobiles, no Internet, no speed cameras, rammed pubs rammed clubs miami vice and to tie it all together the music with recreational and everyone each other . I was 19 in 89 and lived like we all did to enjoy.
In 1977, I was 22, and music took a seismic shift with Punk Rock, and the contrast of New Wave. By 1978, New Wave was my preference. I was 25 in 1980, and 30 in 1985. Living in Los Angeles, I bought Getting Away With It as an import UK CD single. The song with always sparkle. Today is the first time I saw the video!!
Now you also know, many fans of this song didn't grow up in the 1980's. I just follow the music, decade after decade, buying it, and supporting bands and recording artists by seeing them in concert. Today, since the first decade of this century, I'm seriously into Alternative/Indie music. Fortunately, I've lived long enough to own and continue listening to music I've loved since 1960.
Agree❤️
I will NEVER get sick of this song!!!
The whole album was good, right?
Renato Queiroz Filho yep indeed.
it's catchy but, let's face it, it would have never made the cut on a psb or new order album because it's simply not as priceless as what they did with their principal bands.
just a great "feel good" tune
Disappointed is a much better Electronic song.
The bit at the beginning where he looks to his left and obviously sees someone he cares about and his face lights up. Truly beautiful, i love that bit ❤
That's what I honestly noticed as well.🙂
Yes, it's just made me smile hugely.. Lovely.
I always wonder who he's smiling at.
Moments like this are so... human.
It was authentic too. That’s probably why they left it in. Bless.
Me too , that little smile he gives. Priceless
Bernard Sumner of Joy Division/New Order, Johnny Marr of the Smiths, and Neil Tennant of the Pet Shop Boys all on one track = pure '80s awesomeness!
For sure!
Grandi
Best 80s track from the 90s
I love always cranking this tune up on the speakers as I do with all my fave tunes. Never ever had a complaint from the neighbours, I've been getting away with it all my life lol.
@@stevebrazilio Most Underrated comment brother.👍👍👍👍👍.....went over everyone's head's!!😖
Love this song, make's me sad remembering the good times when life was free and easy and nothing mattered
Sad but true. Wow...wish I was a kid again when this was out
well..dont forget broke
Forget people and live your life
Ross you're so right now look at the planet....MISERABLE!!! We are lucky to have enjoyed those fantastic years!!
Word!!
In Britain we have some of the best musical talent 👍
THE best, nothing more or less
All influenced by USA.
@@nickfury1 and usa was influenced by uk music. and both uk and USA was influenced by German music (kraftwerk) whats your point?
@@dannydorko7075 well said
@Jock Odd Sock well, I agree but you don't need to be so NATIONALIST
Remember sending my parents to Woolworths to get this for me haha 🤣🤣🤣 classic, and the b side is amazing!!
This was the song of Christmas '89 and now almost in to 2022.. sounds more Awesome than ever! ❤🎶🎄
remember waiting impatiently for the album to release? man did i play the living shit out of it on release day.
Take me back.
Better than anything that's came out last couple of years for certain.
It does
I totally agree
When Neil Tennant is on backing vocals 👌
The Crying Game
I miss 1990. It was such a simpler time in my life. This song brings me right back to it. Time machine music.
Apparently, my cat Winky loves this song, he comes running when its on.
Hot damn im like 32 years late to the party, what a great song.
I was in a wine bar in Hale, Altrincham, near Manchester in the mid ‘80’s. Bernard Sumner was in close conversation with Neil Tennant on the next table.
I said to my girlfriend, “The outcome from this conversation could be interesting.”
Well, just wasn’t it?
Electronic. What a band.
Probably Bernard saying I can get Johnny Marr on board.Is there anything more Manchester then this band,Smiths,Joy Division,New Order in 1 band.Like if Cantona, Keane & Best combined to be greatest player ever.
@@HenryWaltonJones I think Tennant is from the Newcastle upon Tyne area? Still a brilliant track in my opinion.
this is a legendary story. i'm 27 right now, but i would die to be able to live out such an epic event.
@@paulluce2557 But Chris Lowe is originally from Blackpool, so Neil's kinda Manc' (or Lancastrian, at least) by proxy, yeah...?!
@@lavielemond Legendary partnership.
Heard this song for the first time on the radio not knowing whether it was pet shop boys or new order. hadn't considered it was both of them...with johnny marr.
i just heard this on the radio, i thought it was new order too 😱😱 i used shazam for recognise this song hahaha
heard it for 1st time in trader joes/westlake OH, thought it was psychedelic furs. it came up in those searches, now i have it.
Supergroup, my man.
Always wondered. Were the Pet Shop Boys employees who cleaned the animal cages etc., or customers? And was the name of the shop Petco?
Jason Todd 8
whata a tune, whata a moment!!
This song is an absolute classic just by its simplicity. To add Neil Tennant is a work of genius. He actually makes it magical.
The piano and bass intro is just divine 👌
sumner marr and tennant, can’t go wrong with that lineup
This song still rocks 30+ years later
Brilliant arrangement
This song never ever gets old.
Never
@@jimhadfield6450 it's already old.
Never, never!!!!
Ano essa nusica gênios ❤❤
Bernard Sumner, Johnny Marr, and Neil Tennant. There's Brit pop royalty. I had no idea these people were behind this track.
Gil Orms Oh yes sir! Some of the best of the best. This album has been classic staple in my collection since 1992.
Gil Orms and Anne Dudley. Listen to the orchestration, sound familiar. ABC Lexicon of Love.
I consider 'Britpop' a pejorative. New Order, Pet Shop Boys and the Smiths were so far above and superior to Britpop (which came along in the next decade, by the way)
I think Gil’s comment just related to British Pop artists not the Brit Pop era. This was released way before. This and album it was on is still a stone cold classic to this day......
1990
One of the best trio’s ever
Pop perfection.
Proof if it was needed,that the UK turn out some of the best music on the planet!
100% agree
Until that darn group 'take that' came along!!!!! Darn it!!!!!
Of the primarily English speaking countries, I will concur Great Britain put out really good pop music.
U2 and clannad.
The Beatles helped
What a time to be alive when this gem came out
Oh yes, I agree 100% mate, then the 90s hit which was one long weekend for me! 🤪😛😜
Wasn't many bad tunes,alot often forgotten,but remembered almost instantly,and often the lyrics..😊
@@RUFF-UNIT I was on the 90s clubbing scene, progressive house music was the one for me, wasn't really interested in much pop chart stuff.
@@roguetrooper5288 check out balance 002 kasey Taylor cd2, if you don't know it and have the time ✨
If only I had a time machine, I'd go back to the 80s right now. Great time for music.
Ive Still got this on cassette.but saying that I'm a 55 year old 80s lad😁
One of my favourite songs of all-time. When life was free and easy.
Sumner + Marr + Tennant = perfection
Brilliant song, Neil Tennant has a fantastic voice
2023 and it still sounds as good xx
Electronic - Getting Away With It (Factor B Remix)
Us British know how to do music, amazing talent
🇬🇧🏴
2020 and still sounds mint the world was such a happy place then
🤘
Probably not, just more ignorant
I wish that people would stop moaning about the current times all the time. All those who thought that the eighties were happier than that twenty tens are those who will also say that the twenty tens were happier than the twenty forties. Every decade has its good and bad times and while the eighties were probably better than the seventies, the eighties were riddled with financial recessions. Perhaps they should read some history books about life in the nineteenth century to see how good they have it in the twenty-first century.
The world is a happy place now!
@@daisychain3007 Correct 💪👍
this is one of those songs that just remains timeless
This has always been the jam ; Toronto to Chicago!!!! Dedicated to my friend Lisa Lofthouse who died 10 yrs ago. I love you Lisa. See you in the resurrection Lisa. Just rest baby. Sincerely Phillip
I absolutely love New Order/Joy Division, Pet Shop Boys, and The Smiths. They're all some of my favorite bands and I'm only 17, and to see a song with a few of my favorite musicians collaborating to make basically the equivalent to a new wave symphony... man, I wish I could've lived back then.
It was a trip and a guide for sure!
You have the advantage of mining perfect music gems like this from the 80's and 90's which contrast starkly with the fake junk jewelry of today. I grew up when the Beatles invaded America and never heard this song from 1989/1990 until 2022. Refreshing and beautiful. Everything in its own time.
it was great. We made mix tapes of this and cruised all night. And speed cameras had not yet been invented. Wish you could have been there !
@@richardclarke376 Hahaha, there were speed camera's in the 80's in my country but not many, and that changed alright.
We don't even have parking police walking around anymore but a car with camera's that work waaaaaaaay faster.
Hell, the 80's were a time where life was simple and affortable and we could we do anything we wanted,
so we were really free alright!
You're on the right track, Noah. Keep being awesome.
Bernard Sumner+Johnny Marr+
Neil Tennant=Perfection!!!!!
Effing love this... 54 years old now and have been fortunate enough to have seen the PSB's several times... sadly NEVER seen Bernard and his crew but this song still makes me smile and I really appreciate the talent of New Order xx
Johnny Marr ❤️
Mohnny Jarr
White Doves, speed, ganja, the great days of the 90's.
Oh yes 😁👍
3 very different 80s icons coming together in perfect harmony in the 90s....tune
+Sean Stewart 4 ... you forgot former Kraftwerk member Karl Bartos on nine songs in 1995. :)
Was he in electronic? No
+Sean Stewart Yep!!
+Peepin Tom well that's news to me but will take your word for it.
Yes.. Love this song, sorry I had to break this December thing that this thread had going.. haha
Neil Tennant maybe best uk voice last 40 years. One of the best im sure. Brilliant tune
Special song ❤
EXCELLENT SONG⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Whenever they sing, "all my life," it reminds me of the chorus in the song "Love My Way," by The Psychedelic Furs. Who agrees?
Obviously, it's gotta be sampled, it's exactly the same thing
Two songs I never get tired of hearing..
I always think that, "love my way"
True!
Agreed! Not a bad thing by the way
i was always a huge new order fan i feel terrible for not knowing this existed until last year. i lloooooove this song so much
Também amo essa música demais❤
Música descente ..pra pessoas decentes..hoje as músicas são vulgar com letras tolas e sujas cheia de palavrões ou então esse novo sertanejo podre cheio de melancolia sofrencia tristeza ..te jogando pra baixo..mas isso sim que é música boa de qualidade eletrônica.. parabéns a esse dueto maravilhoso.. essa música não sai mais da minha cabeça..❤❤❤
My wedding song❤
A song that lifts the spirits.
30 year's since this was released,but it never ages
Glad to know others still appreciate good music from the 80s
30 years??!! Really?? That must mean I'm 52! 52 years old?? Really???!
@@goonerlee yeah i know it’s crazy i’m still 24 !11 lol :)
"I'm an original sinner but when I'm with you I couldn't care less..." - one of the best lines ever??????
Gay.....& more gay.... come on..
@@neilwhetham8978 point being?????
Johnny Marr opened up for The Killers a few months ago in San Francisco, a few weeks later I was able to see New Order and Pet Shop Boys. Checking all the boxes 💯💢
A music lovers' dream!!
As a teen in the 80's we used to club a lot in my native Santo Domingo🇩🇴🌺 and this band was played religiously at clubs like OVNI, Columbus, Exodus, Alexander, Neon, etc. This music reminds me such good times! ❤
Wow, amazing how well this sound has aged. Loving it again after setting it aside for like 30 years.
That Johnny Marr lick is just perfection!
This song needs to be played at every Tory conference.
Neil voice is iconic. Love it
Instantly recognisable, agreed.
This song is a masterpiece. It takes my ears on a miraculous adventure. The arrangement of the orchestration makes me feel like I'm flying in the sky in an unknown fantasy. The violins are so beautiful especially as the song ends it makes me wanna cry. This current generation of mainstream music does not know music nor pure talent.
Feeling that with you bro. Legend...
A song from what now seems like a much happier, innocent time.
I wish I could put into words the emotions this song brings up in me. I’m now 60 and this takes me back to the 80 in warp speed. San Francisco, the clubs, the parties, living my best life-unstoppable.
Sweet 90s...
Neil's voice always present....
Marr such a genius
The middle guitar solo and the strings have always melted my heart Really an awesome pop song.
today 30 years Released :
28 May 1991 incredible how the years go by, I remember as if it were yesterday.
That time when musician superheroes of the 80's got together and made an 'Avengers' album. It will never see its equal.
Sumner, Marr and Tennant all in one place has to be a good thing. Brilliant track, timeless.
"I'm an original sinner but when I'm with you I couldn't care less....." Utter brilliance.
That bass line is masterful, it seems to be the work of Chris Lowe (of course). How about Marr's little guitar solo and the voices of Sumner and Neil? I think celestial. This a classic made to fly forever....
My 1 year old boys favorite song. He's going to be alright.
'Cause the music plays forever.

Musical genius. Superb lyrics, great vocals. It's hard not to find something to love about this song.
JM is playing guitar that's enough for me... the too quality singing is just an awesome bonus...love it.
Bernards little grin when the synth comes in.
One of electronics hit singles.......Such a fabulous collaboration of British musical talent.... Always puts a smile on my face.......
This song is so elegant and classy! The melody flawlessly done. Voices excellent.
perfect song. Johnny Marr can do no wrong.
many wish he would reform a "certain" band he used to be in.
