Pet Shop Boys


So i was driving home from school today, when my radio picked up a pretty snazzy song. I looked at the screen, and what did i see? PET SHOP BOYS?

Didn't they form in like, early 1980's? How old does that make them?? Anyways, after i had gotten rid of my dumbfoundedness i actually really began to appreciate the song, and appreciate them for having been around for so long and still sounding good. And i like their song I'm with stupid - 2006, i think? - supposedly having some negative connotations about our oh-so-mighty ex-president BUSH and Tony Blair? (Being an international student, i actually know who that is) I guess i like any song that goes against that terrible american mistake, that (oh NO!) repeated itself in 2004, after having started a war so terrible and unnecessary, that it probably burned the history books after it was imprinted in them.

On a lighter note: me liking the PSB, does not mean that i approve of other bands - who should have long ago been buried in the ground (not metaphorically) - continuing to escapade around the world, doing "tours" and calling themselves "comebacks". Oldies should stay buried in:
a) the ground
b) our iPods, under 'not recently listened to'
c) the grandmother's super old boombox from the god-knows-when's.

One thing i cannot stand, other than racism, homophobia or two-faced backstabbing ho-bags
are bands that don't know when to STOP!
*ahem rolling stones ahem*

Wow. who knew my thoughts on the Pet Shop Boys would lead to a whole rampage about politics. (and my hate for them grandpas... ARGH)

ok. i have to go relax now. Have a great day y'all.

ps. here's the song that almost made me have an accident in the car.
