Tracklist

1So, Some General Questions First. Where Was The Album Recorded? And Tell Us About Trevor Horn’s Role As Producer.1:39
2Twentieth Century Is Next Up. Sometimes The Solution Is Worse Than The Problem.2:14
3It’s A Very Modern Sounding Record, But Some Of The Synth Sounds Seem To Be Harking Back To The Golden Age Of The ’80s. Is This A Retro Record?2:54
4The First Single, Track 8, Is I’m With Stupid, Which Has Got Plenty Of Publicity Because On One Level At Least, It’s About Blair And Bush.2:28
5It Starts Off With A Jerry Springer Figure Introducing The Show. Who’s That?0:51
6The Last Track, Integral, Is A Real Belter. Great Dance Backing; But Sinister As Hell In The Lyrics. “If You’ve Got Nothing To Hide / You Have Nothing To Fear”. Now Where Have I Heard That Before?2:04
7Next Up Is Minimal. Art? Fashion? Music? All Of Them?2:11
8Why Is The Album Called Fundamental? Anything To Do With Religious Fundamentalism?0:28
9OK, Track By Track Now, Through The 12 Tracks On Fundamental. Track 1, Psychological, Seems To Me To Start Out With At Least A Hint, A Flavour, Of The Sound Of Kraftwerk’s The Model. Deliberate?2:03
10God Willing, A Short Track (1.18), Bridges Between Numb And Luna Park. It’s Almost Like The Track That Introduces Side 2, In The Days When We Had Side 2…2:06
11Track 3 Is I Made My Excuses And Left, The Well Known Journalistic Cliché, Used To Get An Investigative Reporter Out Of A Hole…3:35
12There’s A Lot More Than The Spare Machine Generated Dance Rhythms That Sometimes Characterize PSB Tracks. Fundamental Has Plenty Of Big Brass And Strings. Who’s Done The Orchestrations?0:44
13And Now For Side 2 Then. Luna Park, The Fairground Where We All Love To Be Scared…3:09
14Track 9 is Casanova In Hell. The Great Lover… Past It.1:50
15Track 2 Is The Sodom And Gomorrah Show. Obviously To Do With The Biblical Story About The Twin Cities Destroyed By God, Because Of Their Behaviour. A Euro Beat 134 BPM PSB Classic, But With That Sting In The Tail…3:11
16This Is Such A Pet Shop Boys Classic! Pretty Song, Swirling Synths; But Underneath, The Velvet Glove Contains A Steel Fist…1:35
17There Are Some Nice Brass Figures On The Beginning Of The Next Track, Indefinite Leave To Remain.2:13
18There’s Only One Track On The Album That Doesn’t Have The Songwriting Credit “Tennant/Lowe”; And That The 5th Track, Numb. It’s A Gorgeous, Very Sad Song By Diane Warren, And It Plainly Comes Straight From The Heart… Did She Come To You With The Song; Or Did You Go To Her?3:39
