The Pop Kids

The Pop Kids

“The Pop Kids”, the first single from the forthcoming Super album, will be released on March 18th on CD and digital formats. The track will also be immediately available on iTunes from February 16th to anyone who has pre-ordered the album. The CD single and digital bundle track-listing is as follows:

1. The Pop Kids (radio edit)
2. In bits
3. One-hit wonder
4. The Pop Kids (PSB deep dub)
5. The Pop Kids (The full story)

The ‘PSB deep dub’ and ‘The full story’ versions are remixes by Pet Shop Boys including additional vocals and, in the case of “The full story”, an extra verse which brings the story of the Pop Kids up to the present. “In bits” was produced and mixed by Stuart Price. “One-hit wonder” was produced by Pet Shop Boys and mixed by Pete Gleadall — it is a new version of an instrumental track written in late 1981 and remade in 2014 as the theme for Berlin’s online music show, The One-Hit Parade. This is the first time the full track has been released. 
A remix of “The Pop Kids” by MK (Marc Kinchen) will also be released on digital only on March 18th. A vinyl 12” single will also follow later in March. 
“The Pop Kids” will have its first play on BBC Radio 2’s Ken Bruce show on Feb 16.
