Such a lovely and subtle rendition. Neil Tennant's version in the 80s was dripping with sarcasm, with anger, with disillusionment at the larger society. Its youthful angst and energy gave it the needed edge to propel this anthem to iconic status, a cutting commentary on modern urban life and its loneliness, isolation and despair. By 2002, Tennant's musical edges had softened and in older hands it becomes a song of gentle longing, of times gone by, of acceptance of the world as it is and his place in it. It's like the older Neil is telling the younger Neil, "don't worry. It's going to be ok in the end."
Damn!!! He looks better (and as young) as he did back then!!! When they made this track...that was it!!! That's all they had to do!!! They dropped the mic and said "OUR WORK IS DONE"!!!! HIT...CLASSIC!!!
West End Girls. Timeless classic. Will never stop listening to this song in all its forms.
🥰🥰
After 36 years this song is still fresh 👌
That bass line is so effective! I love this song.
That's what I like about synth driven music
This is an amazing song no matter how old it is.
Great music never gets old :)
What does age have to do with great music? You don’t go see a painting and say the Mona Lisa is pretty good for being 500 years old.
It will never sound old
One of the greatest songs ever…🔥🔥🔥
I saw them live in Toronto two days ago on the Unity tour with New Order. FANTASTIC. If you have the chance to go, go.
This is such a good song.
Never grows old! Always sounds fresh and gives any song today a run for its money.
Another great version of the song that changed all of our lives 👏
Glad to know the pet shop boys are still around. I grew up in the 80s and I love their music
Always and intemporels ❤
wow what an amazing voice live, perfect
I truly believe that Neil enjoys singing this song, as much as we enjoy listening to it!!

As of right now, this is the most underrated comment in this comment section.
i don't know if that's how Neil interoperates it, but amazing insight mate
It's going to be the end in the end, as another begins. Which I'm sure is a lesson well learned by him.
Both him and Chris are amazing. One of the best duos ever.
Already a small hit in 1984 in Belgium... the rest of the world had to wait another year for this song to become a classsic. Love it still!
Older but better💖That Neil...my, my, my...STILL DREAMY💖 Chris is a cutie too💖
80s electro sound is timeless
Miss emusic very much
This live version is beautiful!
It's the BEST
40 años de un tema eterno, gracias Pet Shop Boys 🎶👍🏼🎶

You gotta heart of glass or a heart of stone?

So good. Timeless.
Wow! Sounds just as good as it did back in the 80s!
THE BEST.
Brilliant version of a true classic. Thank you.
His vocals live are just about as good as the studio version. That’s not something you see with most performers. Very nice voice.
👍
He is unique
and 20 years after the original recording no less!
@@Medic3000 20? Almost 40 years old already!
@@sahara4229 true, but this particular clip is from 2002.
If Neil was a voice coach on one of these reality shows I might actually watch one.
The guitar player is on fire
Jody Linscott on percussion did a smashing job !
she did! I can't take my eyes off of her managing all that variety of instruments with absolute precision. Delightful!
New to the party - great song!!
the greatest song in history
Wow! This is a very well done arrangement.
Really GREAT song,Classy all around!!! The vocalist definitely reminds me of Al Stewart. Absolutely Genius!!!!
80s Britain great music
Lovely arregements. Guitars and percussion are amazing
I was waiting for the trumpet, but still a fantastic live version of the song. Always a classic for me!
