[Introspective] Final results of poll on covers preferred to PSB versions

[Wayne Studer]

The final results are in for my poll this past week, in which I asked my 
site visitors whether there are any covers by other artists of songs written 
by the Pet Shop Boys that they like more than the Boys' own versions -- a 
simple Yes/No question. And the response that received (by far) the most 
votes was:

* "No," picked by 73.9% of the voters.

To see the complete results (including a short list of songs that a few of 
those who voted "Yes" had specifically cited as being better by other 
artists than by PSB), please visit my "Commentary" site at 
http://www.geowayne.com/psbhtml.htm and click the "Past Survey Results" 
button in the left navigation bar.

As promised, my new poll for the week ahead deals with the recent news that 
the Pet Shop Boys would appear as "special guests" on the upcoming Take That 
reunion tour of the U.K., Ireland, and continental Europe. Not surprisingly, 
I'm wondering how you feel about this. I've listed several possible 
opinions, and I'm wondering which one comes closest to expressing how you 
feel. So please take a few moments to look at the statements presented right 
there on my home page and make your choice.

Meanwhile, thanks to everyone who voted in last week's survey! And I hope 
you all have a terrific week ahead!
