Song of the Day: 'My October Symphony' by Pet Shop Boys


I've probably posted this before, but it's so haunting and perfect that I can't resist doing it again. So many memories of visiting my friends Greg and Paul in Tempe in the fall of 1990 after having moved to Los Angeles the previous spring, and listening to this album that was like nothing I'd heard before. The Pet Shop Boys were done on the U.S. pop charts, yet in many ways this was when their career really began.

Excellent selection Kenneth! It's my favorite track from "Behaviour," and that's saying a lot, considering the LP also includes the classic "Being Boring." This is the album when I stopped thinking of PSB as pop stars and starting thinking of them as artists.
