Free Music Review: High Quality PSB
Hit: 5 Stars
As the Pet Shop Boys have matured in their writing they have moved from superior pop stars who range from catchy and clever through stirring and uplifting into stunning musicians who rank with some of the best modern composers around. This song, Numb, from their latest album Fundamental, is an example of finely nuanced writing that transcends pop and stands as the kind of mood piece that used to be known as lieder in classical circles. Its powerful and deceptively simple melody perfectly underlines a lyric that could stand alone as poetry alongside a T S Eliot or a Gertrude Stein in any modern anthology. Both the boys are hitting at the top of their game in this outstanding track. I'm not sure how it will chart alongside today's more conventional offerings, but it is a great sign that the record company was willing to highlight this first class modern music and back the remixes and versions offered on the two singles releases Numb Part 1 & Numb Part 2. My only regret is that they couldn't have been a little more generous and given us the contents on one disc. As usual, however, the additional rarities on a PSB single end up being some of the highlights of my collection. Thanks Boys.....keep it up.
