I turned 63 today and I am setting alone in my small apartment listening to this and truly feeling the heartache of getting old in a world that does not care for anything more than youth and money. It all passes so quickly. One day you're 16 and the world is bright and shiny and new and the next it is all old and broken and will never be fixed! Thank you for this song for my birthday!

[navagodinez]

A song about growing old...which is happening way sooner than I thought.
Cheers to all of you who grew up with their music.
🥂

I'm 52 years old. The Earth has been spinning for millions of years, and I got to live on it at the same time as The Pet Shop Boys. And my life is ever the richer for it.

[dreamcast]

I am 75 years old and after all the doom and gloom what a brilliant song, brings back many memories, Soft Cell and PSB at their best, can't wait to get the Album.

[charliezicolillo]

It is a song about getting old.But how could you get old just listening to this song.

[blatherskite]

Considering I originally got into Pet Shop Boys back in 1986 because they were the nearest thing I could find to Soft Cell after Soft Cell disbanded in 1984, this is a simultaneously curious and very welcome convergence :)

[calbudd]

I love this song. Soft Cell and Pet Shop Boys never sounded better.

[normandy]

My wife and my favourite artists together. Wonderful.
The last song before she sadly passed away. Rest in peace my love. Miss you so much

[toybarons]

I'm a fan of both Soft Cell and PSB. I'm 57. Been a fan since the 80s. Thanks gang.

[MetalVentor]

I have traveled the world. I will turn 56. I remember dancing as a teenager to softcell in Los Angeles. Travel the world. It stretches life out to be much longer. Instead of living in the same city. Working the same job. Accept less money and less things to see the world!! It’s incredible!! If your young and reading this. Travel. Travel. Travel.

[przemekgrabowski]

Chris Lowe and Dave Ball were both born in 1959 in Blackpool and went to school together, so it was an old friends reunion.

[Benovip]

I'm only 32, but I wonder sometimes where life went.

To everyone who's +50. I wish you blessings and happiness

[simonritson]

This would have been a massive hit if it had been recorded in the late 80's....

[howardkinder]

Brilliant song.
One minute, it was the 80s, and then, in a blink of eye, it's 2023.
Sad in one way as you've got less years in front of you, but wouldn't change a thing.
What a great era I was part of.

[gregfisher]

I'm 55 so was partying in the eighties. Soooo uplifted by a classic electro pop song from the best in the business. Perfectly timed to lift the heart and bring back happy memories. Thanks boys, an inspiration as you have always been.

[AmandaEllis]

Can’t wait!!! Remember Neil Tennant reviewing Soft Cell when he worked for Smash Hits! Followed Marc for years ..

[rocketchef]

As I can see I am not the only one who was getting older. Love you guys.

[Rob_J_Tipper]

What a brilliant song and video, bringing together two of my favourite groups.

I’ve just turned 55 so this song rings true for me. I reflect on my youth clubbing in the 80’s with not a care in the world. So very different to today, as I struggle with growing older and the many difficulties it brings (I now have early onset dementia).

Thanks Marc, Dave, Neil and Chris for such a brilliant thought provoking song.

[ghosthroughx]

This is practically perfect! Why is this not a no. 1 hit? If it were the 80s or 90s I bet it would have been.

[skippiijoy]

Soft Cell and the PSB?!?!? Whoever read my Christmas wish list, thank you! 😍

Edit: OMG, this. So much love for it!!! Worth the wait.❤️❤️❤️
