The new Pet Shop Boys single is called 'Winner' and it's out next week

  • June 25, 2012
  • Brad O'Mance

Pet Shop Boys have announced that the first proper single from their new album 'Elysium' will be called 'Winner'.

If you think the artwork (right) is Olympics-friendly, wait until you hear the song.

The single will be premiered next Monday on The Ken Bruce Show on Radio 2 at some point between 9:30 and 12pm. It will then be available to buy on iTunes.

If you would like to own it phys­ic­ally then you'll have to wait until August 6. Mind you, your patience will be rewarded as you'll get three bonus tracks.

(To add another layer of com­plex­ity, you will then also be able to get two 'digital bundles' on that day, and they will come with bonus tracks and remixes.)

'Elysium' is out in September.
