GETTING AWAY WITH IT

Passable pop song. Never been huge into Electronic, though.
I can't believe Chris Marker did the video for it, though. Absolutely typical video for the time period...would've thought someone as creative as Marker would spice up the formula somehow.
I quite like this one. Shame it was done in Electronic and not NO. I don't regard Electronic as "Electronic". It's just Bernard Sumner as a solo artist to me.
Best Bit I think Neil Tennants vocals fit in really well.
Worst Bit Didnt like the vid or cover artwork too much.
Why you love/hate it... A supergroup you can actually admit to liking.

The biggest waste of money you ever spent My new garden path. Installed by a complete monkey who did what I wanted to the letter without thinking it looks like shit and maybe telling me this.
As a side point. Wasnt it written by Neil Tennant and its actually about Morrisey?
Um...No, Barney and Johnny wrote the song, Neil just did the backing vocals. I actually bought the debut Electronic album, it's ok, it's like New Order without bass.

- Best part is opening and closing parts/melodies
- Worst is the "i love you more than you love me" part gets a bit tiresome/whiny.
- Sumner, Marr, and Tennant. Kind of lost its relevance unless if you are an 80's/early 90's dance-pop geek.

lol, I really like that Barney's S!
It's Neil's 'i should do what he said' I cannot stand!
I thought it was gayish song.
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
- The few seconds leading up to the second time they do the chorus, followed by, of course, the chorus. Pure gold!
- The ending. I like it, but it's my least favorite part of the song.
- It's a brilliant pop song.

- I once spent several hundred dollars to visit a particularly bitchy ex-GF of mine a few years back!

Best Bit Lyrics.
Worst Bit Got scared that this was the end of NO 'coz Barney was going his own way.
Why you love/hate it... Like the PSB's, liked The Smiths, Love NOrder, so was very exciting to see bits of them all come together.

- I tried to save money before when I had my car overhauled. I got a cheap mechanic, and I thought I was able to save money. I had numerous repairs after that, and after 2 years, I decided to have it overhauled again!
