“Cricket wife” digital single

“Cricket wife” digital single

Pet Shop Boys today release their new track “Cricket wife” plus “West End girls (lockdown version)” in digital format at the link below.

The dramatic new song – almost 10 minutes long – features orchestral sounds and was written by Chris as a classical-style instrumental piece; the lyrics, meanwhile, are taken from a poem Neil Tennant had written. Pete Gleadall mixed the final track. The second track is a lockdown version of Pet Shop Boys classic ‘West End girls’, a completely new version of the classic song which debuted online in June 2020. Both tracks were recorded during the first lockdown last year, with Chris and Neil recording their parts in their respective homes.
