Oh, All The Young Dudes...?



If you collect records (or if you have a turntable and enjoy analog music) you know that there's a period at the end of the eighties and during the early nineties where records seem to almost completely disappear. You can barely find an LP from that era. Not that they totally stopped making the, but it was the down of the era of the CD. And one of the victims of that void are acts like the Pet Shop Boys. I have been able to get some of their 12 inches (get your mind out of the gutter, babes!) because I love maxi singles, but I have just three of their Long Plays (Actually, Please and Disco). The rest of their music I have on CD. 

I got into the Pet Shop Boys because I used to have a boyfriend who loved Parinaro, one dark, fun, booming jewel of a song that was the soundtrack to more than a fun night for us. I got back into them because I started watching It's A Sin (that is the title of a TV series with @OllyAlexander that takes place during the early AIDS crisis years in the UK and their song is played in the opening credits). I have random motivators. What can I say?

And then this video popped up on my YouTube suggestions and I just had to post it here. Because Time. How it fucking flies. All the Young Dudes today will be the Pet Shop Boys in this video tomorrow. Cause time does not stop, Constant Reader. It keeps marching on. 

XOXO

P.S. Bowie this.

    Time marches on for all of us. For some, it stomps angrily! LOL. I will play my vinyl but the CDs still offer convenience --- you know, because not having to flip over an album after 15 - 20 minutes saves time. 🤯😁🤣
