Pet Shop Boys - Suburbia (Parlophone)

A bit of a glum song with Neil Tennant singing about how miserable it is to live in what he calls a
'suburban hell'. I must confess that I find all this stuff about 'broken glass' and 'bus shelters' a tiny bit boring, lyrically speaking, but it's got a lovely mournful one-finger piano tune which isn't half bad at all. And it has dogs barking on it. (William Shaw, Smash Hits, September 24, 1986)
