That’s the real … That’s the real message of this song, yes.
The Pet Shop Boys are leftists, and this is a sad, melancholy, pessimistic song. Neil Tennant has such a thin little voice and the choir is so far, far away … and they NEVER EVER sing together, not one note! The singer wants to go west, but you just know in your heart he ain’t going anywhere, and if he managed to pack his bags, he has nothing in common with anyone in the west.
in the history of … in the history of earth there was no empire like Soviet.
it was named”Union” but it was empire,in soviet union there was no CHOISE.i’m from georgia,and there is big radio station in north georgia,it was built in 20th century to block all west radio waves in georgia.our people was always fighting for freedom,and we freed ourselves in 1991 from Soviet union. we knew that west was our only hope,and now we think same. but russia is still trying to take us in control and renew soviet empire
