On the home page (4 spaces to the left of Forums) the news about Johnny Marr and Pet Shop Boys Collaboration from NME arrogantly and ignorantly states that Johnny Marr's first collaboration with Pet Shop Boys was Electronic's first album when Marr played on Behaviour in 1990. This Must Be the Place...and the excellent My October Symphony. Fuck NME and their second rate bullshit journalists. Don't buy their paper if they write such nonsense as this and the 60MPH review. Read it in the shop and leave without paying!

I already did that in the past, and what's more I've taken so many copies of this overpolished toilet paper excuse for an informative musicjournal without paying I must be the NME's biggest ENEMY around. Why should I pay a rip-off price for such shit?
Like a fool i keep buying it, in the vain hope that one day it will return to its former half-decentness. Yeah, right, as if - they had destiny's feckin child on the cover recently.
The bastards should be shot in the head. There only interted in scenes (Madchester, Britpop even f**cking riot girrrls) they can not handle the fact that just now and again bands can last the distance. They tried to rubbish Blur and champion Oaspiss but in the end even these tools realised that Blur were musicaly more inventive than those Burnage gob shites.
Exactly: Blur (despite evrything they stand for, and the fact that, yes, a few of their records have been good as well as rotten) are much better artistically than Oasis, who went up their own self-aggrandizing cul-de-sac aeons ago. Sorry, Monobrow Brothers. Hate Damon if you like, but even his feckin Gorillaz project has won over people who usually HATE Bluuurgh with a vengeance. How's that for subversity?
And here's another observation: You just know you're in for a shite journowank whenever the NME in so much as put a Union Jack on the front cover of their rag: How many times have they pulled this stunt off? On average at least twice a year me thinks! What a load of wank! Britpop?! ARSED! New Acoustic Movement? ARSED! Riot Grrrl? ARSED! New Brit Rock? ARSED!! New Wave of New Wave? ARSED!!! New Grave? ARSED WITH DOUBLE CHEESE AND GHERKINS!! :\puke:

Yeah, and he also collaborated on the remix of "I Want To Wake Up (1993 version) and he co-wrote one or two songs on the Bilingual album.
A little after the Nightlife album came out, Marr launched his website and I had asked a question to him and he answered it. I asked him if he thought that the Pet Shop Boys could use a guitar player like him for their live tour, considering that so many of their tracks are enhanced with a guitar part, and he said he fully agreed but that they didn't ask him (as if he was disappointed about it). It might be different next time!
Seb.

Well, actually this was my own writing, the NME text is below, so blame it on me.
I wasn't aware Johnny Marr did previous work than the Electronic album...
are you saying sebastien hasn't given you the full run-down? the NME is still a bullshit paper much like Rolling Stone and Spin in America.
Speaking of Bullsit Magazines, I saw in Mixer that Blue Monday placed 8th in the All Time Greatest Dance Singles. I think they used the photo of neworder sitting on a few cases of Becks.
hahaha
Nicolas and I will seldom consult each other before adding a news, so he didn't ask me anything for that one, otherwise I would have let him known about it. But, eh, nobody's perfect! ![]()
