The final results are in for my poll this past week, in which I asked my
site visitors what they think the odds are that the Pet Shop Boys will ever
win a Grammy Award. And the response that received the most votes was:
* "The odds are against it -- but it's possible," picked by 42.5% of the
voters.
To see the complete results, please visit my "Commentary" site at
http://www.geowayne.com/psbhtml.htm and click the "Past Survey Results"
button in the left navigation bar.
My new poll for the week ahead may prove a little more challenging than
most -- especially for those of you who, like me, love nearly everything the
Boys have done. But since even I have to admit that I like some PSB albums
and songs more than others, this should work. I'm wondering which albums
have, in your opinion, the greatest "dissonance" with their extracted
singles in terms of overall quality. In other words, first you get to pick
the album that seems the "weakest" when compared to the general quality of
its singles (that is, the singles are "stronger" than their album). And then
you can pick the album whose singles seem the weakest compared to the
overall quality of the album itself (the album is stronger than its
singles)? So please put on your aesthetic thinking caps, and when you're
ready, make your choices right there on my home page.
Meanwhile, thanks to everyone who voted in last week's survey! And I wish
you all a fabulous week!
