I was not even a teen until November of 1989...I turned 13 years young. However the 80's were the times for outstanding dance music. I'm still an 80's dance music fan..I'm 46 now.
I feel old now i was in my teens when the PSB's burst onto the scene, this was always on my mind + this is deffo the best remix of this electro pop smash
The Pet Shop Boys unleash an immense amount 0f Consonants and syllables done at their pet shop. Neil Tennant (27) and Chris Lowe (22) met in a hi-fi shop on King's Road in Chelsea, London, in 1981. had purchased a Korg MS-10 synthesizer which sparked a conversation with Lowe. Discovering that they had a mutual interest in dance and electronic music, they began to work together on material,[13] first in Tennant's flat in Chelsea, then, from 1982, in a small studio in Camden Town. < They say their band name was taken from friends who worked in a pet shop in Ealing and were known as the "pet shop boys".> [14]In August 1983, Tennant, who was an assistant editor at Smash Hits, went to New York to interview Sting.[13]While there he arranged to meet Hi-NRG producer Bobby Orlando and gave him a demo tape containing "It's a Sin" and "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)". 1983-84, Orlando recorded 11 tracks with Tennant and Lowe including "West End Girls", "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)", "It's A Sin", "I Want A Lover", "I Get Excited", "Two Divided By Zero", "Rent", "Later Tonight", "Pet Shop Boys", "A Man Could Get Arrested" and "One More Chance".

On 2 November, it was voted "Screamer of the Week" by listeners of Long Island, New York, radio station It was a minor dance hit in Belgium and France, but was only available in the United Kingdom as a 12" import. a Super W o W World Over The World Of Music...
..pet shop boys smashing it again w another epic jam ..this songs a hit but this mix is even hotter .. ..always on my mind under mark texier extended instrumental version goes hard too..
I was so excited for the 2021 tour. I was set to buy tickets for Toronto when I realized the 2021 tour was canceled just one day earlier. Disappointing, but like the song "Opportunities", I bought 4 tickets for a newly added venue in Brooklyn, NY for 2022. Can't wait!!!!
Believe it or not but this was the first song that the Pet Shop Boys released. It was a flop till West End Girls hit the charts. Then they released it and strangely it became a hit! It sums up the attitude of 1980's Britain then. With it's Boom or Bust. Loads of people suffered. They did not make Lots of Money..No harm to you Neil and Chris. I still buy your stuff. Although it's getting weirder with every album..Peace and Love..Weird Bill from Scotland.
Recorded in 1986. I am glad they keep playing it. This music would be cool in a happening night club. Where everyone dresses to kill .The talked about place to be.
The original Shep Pettibone Mastermix of West End Girls is also only available on vinyl, although you can find an extended edit on Disco. The Shep Pettibone Mastermix of Love Comes Quickly can also be found on Disco, but hasn't been released since. Since may of their other early mixes have found their way onto CD, I wonder if it is a royalties issue with Shep.
You are probably correct. I think so because Neil tends to elaborate on things hen he talks, yet, during the BBC Radio 2 interview/ documentary he mentions Shep once and very briefly. He only indicate that it is a real person and not a modification of their name (Pet Shop Boys/ Shep Pettibone)... and nothing more. Probably the relationship between them is not the best at the moment. This is my conjecture.
I love the Pet Shop Boys first both guys' were a few years older than me but it was the bomb to be a young gay guy growing up two of the best gay men jamming out all of the air ways with all their European hit songs coming out all the time. In fact, with them and their music I didn't feel so different watching them both making music and they looked like they were really both really looked happy with a long term relationship in life and were happy being in a committed love relationship. Honestly, did know if either were intimate with each other or just band mates. Either way I knew and know now both guys are gay and were a positive influence on me as a young gay man coming into his own sexuality. Also, my gaydar is not wrong when it comes to know my own kind of same-sex seekers.

I still love them so much!!!! I'm 49 now and play their music most days and loud!!!! Musical geniuses!!! Thank you Neil and Chris😭❤❤
Would have all PSB singles blasting in my room in the 80's. Iconic masterpieces all!!!!!!!!!!!!
Every Shep Pettibone remix is awesome.
Love Shep's Level42 - Lessons in Love remix too.
Wish I'd been a teen in the 80s. Visions of dancing in lots of underground British clubs.
Some of the best years of my life. Such a creative era in music history.
I was a teen in the 80’s and I would go back now
I was not even a teen until November of 1989...I turned 13 years young.
However the 80's were the times for outstanding dance music.

Me too
shep was one of the best remixers .... i thought he hadn't done many ,,,,,, the wiki list is huge .....
Shep is a legend.
i still have this 12 version on vinyl timeless
I have two copies on clear vinyl, with the big picture labels :) This mix never got a release on CD.
Pet Shop Boys in 2019. Still the best! Burn Today's Boring Music!!!
their music HOLDS UP!!!!
Same 2022
The most gorgeous ever among all remixes of the duo.
I love this mix of Opportunities the best. Played in the clubs
Excellent version.....love it to death.
This is the start of my love of British Dance music. No one beats the Brits very complex stuff.
Except that Shep Pettibone, the person who made this remix, is an American record producer, remixer, songwriter and club DJ.
The Human League, SoftCell, ABC band, and a number of British groups were the sounds of the 80's.
Italio disco rip off
@@muskymcg italo disco the best dance music.this is basically italo disco
I feel old now i was in my teens when the PSB's burst onto the scene, this was always on my mind + this is deffo the best remix of this electro pop smash

I still have this on 12inch vinyls from odyssey records store in New Orleans
Genial de los 80... inolvidable

Listening to the lyrics, no other song could sum up better the Greed is Good mantra of the 80's.

This is a perfect record. Bizarre key changes. Made you WORK to find a key match sometimes.. also the best record to go and pee

Wow, I've never heard that one before. Thank you very much for sharing.
It's a shame that this great remix has yet to be released on CD.

Why CD?
Money heals all wounds

Asking for a friend : who has the brains, cuz I have the looks 😮
It WAS FUN!!!!
Lovely rip.
Put it to playback speed 2 and go to 2mins it sounds kind of good.
Nu wave was upon us.
5:57 The outro synths kicks ass. never knew this mix existed (just the original two versions and the reprise off of please)
Pretty fierce remix, added a little oomph to the original (and yes I was looking for the insurance commercial remix)
so many Roland XOX drum machines used!!! Love it.
Same for me, but with at least a billion envelope!!! ;)
Yeah 1980’s
My best version!!🔥
Thumbz upp peepz!!
It's the orginal popmusic true!!!
was this ever released on cd, because it's different from the Disco album
As far as I know it has not been on CD, but I am not an expert in PSB releases.
Very Good! But better Latin Rascals Mix
The version I have seems to have 4 additional minutes beyond the 7:21 min mark.
