Stop what you're doing, we've heard the new Pet Shop Boys single and it's brilliant

  • December 12, 2008

Want to know more about 'Love Etc'? Send your questions to [email protected] and we'll answer them on Monday.

For the time being: 

1. It doesn't sound like anything Pet Shop Boys have done before.
2. It doesn't sound like anything Xenomania have done before.
3. It's three minutes and thirty four seconds long, ie only four seconds away from per­fec­tion (per­fec­tion being the length of '…Baby One More Time' — three minutes and thirty seconds).
4. The first word is "you" and the last word is "more".

Amazing. Send your questions in now and we'll fill in the blanks on Monday.
