Pet Shop Boys - New York City Boy flac mp3 download

I've seen this one a lot around American record stores. Must've been a popular import.

Wrong ttime in the side B - right time for (The Morales Dub Beats) is 5:17 min. or is not this mix.

Have you considered this might be the full version of the mix? Sometimes mixes get edited (shorter time) on official releases.

I think the track nº A2 New York City Boy (Morales Radio Edit) 5:16 is wrong time.Or the track is ''new york city boy - the morales dub mix edit : 5:16.

DEAR SELLER, THANK YOU FOR YOUR QUICK RESPONSE. I AM MOST SORRY, BUT I CANNOT COMMIT TO YOUR SHIPPING PRICE. AS I MENTIONED, I AM POOR AND MUST WATCH MY BUDGET. IF YOUR SHIPPING PRICE WAS $6.00 OR LESS I COULD MANAGE THE COST. IF YOU CAN DO THAT, LET ME KNOW. AGAIN, I AM SORRY. YOURS TRULY, PAUL EGAN.

Title track is one of the worst PSB songs. But the three associated b-sides -- Ghost of Myself, Casting a Shadow, Lies -- are among the better tracks of this somewhat lean era. The instrumental Shadow is particularly good.

Some people liked "New York City Boy", some didn't. The video made for it was very nice. They even rebuilded the interior of 'Studio 54', complete, with a Andry Warhol lookalike. The album version can work as a 'club mix'. The Superchumbo's Uptown Mix (track 3) sounds like a copy of "Happy Days" by Paul Jacobs (which sampled Northend). The guitar riff is basically the same, recreated in studio. "Casting A Shadow" is a conceptual masterpiece. Really. Composed specially for the last solar eclipse of the millenium, it was played 'live' for the event and equals in length the time the eclipse lasted. Radio 1 retransmitted the event but the presenters kept talking the whole time, which annoyed Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe. Over the years, numerous prophets announced the end of the world when the eclipse was supposed to occur. "Casting A Shadow", played live, was supposed to be an artistic 'happening' based on that idea. The crowd reunited for the event was supposed to be part of this happening. PSB were thinking about the retransmission being the 'final product' (with the noises from the crowd in the background). That's why they were angry at the presenters. A short pause from them (about 20 seconds) gave a good idea of what is what supposed to sound like altogether (the screaming crowd - you can't tell if it's joy or terror - over the music). Good vs. evil, religion vs. science, purity vs. sins. Classic PSB themes set in a dramatic moment. You ask yourself : "Is this really going to be the end of the world, or will we get redemption?". In the end, of course, we're still there and we understand that we got another 'chance', and the question is: what are you gonna do with it?

Tell me, how blatantly gay can one sound? I guess that depends on your definition of 'gay'. In my view, anything that remotely attempts to capture the essence of Village People is shamelessly gay... not that there's anything wrong with that, of course. This PSB offering takes the cake as their most outrageous thing they've done in a long while. It's blindingly obvious to see the connection with something off a decadent Village People compilation; just like 'San Francisco' was an west coast anthem, 'New York City Boy' seems to be east coast equivalent. With some positively hot horns and a pumping disco bass line, it's an effort not to do the points or the knee drops. If you're all up for a decidedly guilty pleasure, you could do a lot worse than spin this track before your chill-out section.

The instruments are not gay at all,but the lyrics or theme may be , but PSB have disco influences in their music.

The lyrics are a about a male prostitute in er...NYC.maybe happening in the middle 80's, New York was an extremely violent and decadent city.The theme is quite sad but I believe they managed to take the sadness out of it and it became a tacky uplifting house anthem.
