"Glad All Over" is a version of the early 60s hit by The Dave Clark Five which Pet Shop Boys performed in Chris Lowe's home town of Blackpool, UK last summer.
The song has become a victory anthem for Blackpool FC UK football club, which rose to the Premier League this year. This new studio version was arranged and produced by Pet Shop Boys and Tim Powell.
"I Cried For Us" features Neil Tennant singing a song by the late Kate McGarrigle, mother of Rufus Wainwright, at her memorial concert at the Royal Festival Hall in London last June in an arrangement by Pet Shop Boys. Chris and Neil produced this studio version which was mixed by Pete Gleadall.
Pet Shop Boys will also release an accompanying video for "Together" directed by Peeter Rebane. The song accompanies visually stunning choreography intended to tell the entire story through the dancers as a centerpiece. Perfectly composed by choreographer Mäar Ago, many different styles of dance are showcased, including Russian Cossack, waltz, ballet, and even break dancing.
Since first meeting in London in 1981, Pet Shop Boys' Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe have sold more than 50 million albums around the world.
