The final results are in for my poll this past week, in which I asked my
site visitors to pick their favorite mashup of a Pet Shop Boys song with the
music of one or more other artists. And, as it turns out, there was a tie
for the top response:
* "I can't or won't choose," *and*
* "PSB vs. Britney Spears, Adele, Rihanna, + 3, 'The Power of Rolling Along
(Till the World Ends)'," each of which were selected by 22.0% 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 navigation bar.
My new poll for the week ahead is inspired by the recent phenomenon of
record companies re-releasing a "classic" album in a high-priced "deluxe"
expanded format, generally consisting of several discs (four, five, or even
six or more) with a plethora of previously unreleased material, including
alternate takes or mixes of its songs, completely "new" songs recorded
during the same sessions, b-sides, live recordings, and the like, along with
special artwork and reading material. So I'm wondering which of the Pet Shop
Boys' own "classic era" studio albums-from "Please" through "Very"-you would
most like to be re-released in this format. Or would you prefer that *none*
of their albums receive this treatment? Thanks to Martijn for suggesting
this question!
And thanks to everyone who voted in last week's survey! I wish you all a
superb week ahead!
