Reconsidering a Visit to the Pet Shop

Robert Everett-Green gives Yes, the latest release from the Pet Shop Boys a listen and shares his thoughts in Tuesday’s Globe and Mail:

“The Pets still emanate their peculiarly stagnant adoration of the rich and gorgeous, while finding subtle ways to question that attitude. In Beautiful People, there’s something almost innocent about the way Neil Tennant voices a desire for the beautiful life exactly as advertised. The suppression of irony exposes the fairy-tale yearnings that drive our society. The Pets never reject the dream: Love etc., the bouncy opening track, insists that love is all you need, but the lingering account of other desirables tells a different story.”
