Electronic - Getting Away With It (1990 Official Music Video) [HD Upgrade] 

Neil tennant is the complete musician , can do it all and yes his voice is very unique every word is crystal clear ,nicely spoken dude , the younger generation of musical talent could learn a thing or two from this musical genius 🙏

Yes, Neil's voice so recognizable!❤

Absolutely!

It’s not his original style and amazing how distinct it became. There was an interview recently where he stated how he refined it based on interviews when he was journalist for a pop magazine

Bernards voice is pretty unique also.

Looks like your getting away with it.

Me, pure genius 😊

Me

Yes rediscovered this sing, forgot his good it is

Sensacional! Dá um aperto no coração de tanta saudade.😢

totally fresh

I'm 71......Love it .!!

25 here, my da would always play it. LOVE IT

50 here, remember when this first came out, still love it.

Defo..

It’s a brilliant song with three fantastic musicians

Same, and agreed.

Yep...grunge had some quality music but eventually killed a great musical era

Absolutely I'm 59 we were in a wild era. Gen x saw the end of punk that grew into post punk,goth and new wave/alternative. The end of disco that morphed into club music. And the birth of rap/hip hop And that's just a part. There were those smash hits/bands ...loads of pop Great times. My favs were and still are Depeche Mode,The Cure and New Order. But I love The Clash,Blondie,Devo and the B52S

Me too im 57. 58 in the coming months. 👍

57 here too. Maybe I'm too nostalgic but stuff like this is 99% of what I can bear to listen to.

Joy Division/New order.

Plus a little bit of Psychedelic Furs.... 😆😆😆😆

producer: ABC

and Soft Cell

New order *

Morrisey 😊👍

Anne Dudley (Art of Noise) did the string arrangement

And on top of that, Johnny Marr.

Agree!! Without Tennant it wouldn't have been a hit.

It's an intentional Super Group... has my 3 favourite artists of all time. It was written by all 3.

Rockwell and Michael Jackson

@@carlosgalvez9312 without tennat it would have sounded lilke Mozart, he sounds like a boring annoying mumbling

❤

This was 1990

​@@pinkpantherer I would give anything to go back to the 80' and 90's. I hate the world we live in today.

@@pinkpantherer This single was actually released in 1989. But yeah close to both periods.

@@cinemar 1990

Nope 1989, Neil says so: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jMYbSdNxbeU.htmlsi=6zrKwq82KvzBiyPs

Did you ever hear the Johnny Marr version with his solo band?

I have. When this first came out, this track lived in my head. My neighbors hated it.

@@krillin876he played it when I saw him!! So good

Yep. Me too.

The greg wilson version is really good for this!

Oh yes 👍

Yep. Me. Oh the memories ❤

Yes definitely

Hello Kitty Lover Man! Thank you for the correction. Corrected with help from the “Grammar Guru.” newsroom.unl.edu/announce/snr/2789/15239

Yeah.maybe yeah

I remember when it released. KROQ in L.A. used to play it of course it helped Johnny Marr was in the band

Fabulous song. But it shares the title with the Sundays' "This Is Where the Story Ends," also a 12/89 release.

@@carlhorowitz6321 The title of that title is "HERE'S Where the Story Ends" :)

Sadly, me too…

Amen​@@sylviaochoa4527

Every couple has that? Or am I a cynic?

Absolutely ❤❤❤

@@geoffbaxter1509Yes. And I think I’m the one who loves more. Shitty feeling.

It does

All is life he was getting away with not being heartbroken, until now.

And Jouhhny Fucking Marr!!! You can totally hear him throughout this song!

@@carolshaw5257 He sings??

Remy Andersen PSB/NO and Johnny Marr

@@no15minutecities Guitar 😐

And the very talented Jimi Goodwin of Doves.

Agreed! Timeless

For sure!

Grandi

Best 80s track from the 90s

I love always cranking this tune up on the speakers as I do with all my fave tunes. Never ever had a complaint from the neighbours, I've been getting away with it all my life lol.

@@stevebrazilio Most Underrated comment brother.👍👍👍👍👍.....went over everyone's head's!!😖

Probably Bernard saying I can get Johnny Marr on board.Is there anything more Manchester then this band,Smiths,Joy Division,New Order in 1 band.Like if Cantona, Keane & Best combined to be greatest player ever.

@@HenryWaltonJones I think Tennant is from the Newcastle upon Tyne area? Still a brilliant track in my opinion.

this is a legendary story. i'm 27 right now, but i would die to be able to live out such an epic event.

@@paulluce2557 But Chris Lowe is originally from Blackpool, so Neil's kinda Manc' (or Lancastrian, at least) by proxy, yeah...?!

@@lavielemond Legendary partnership.

Sad but true. Wow...wish I was a kid again when this was out

well..dont forget broke

Forget people and live your life

Ross you're so right now look at the planet....MISERABLE!!! We are lucky to have enjoyed those fantastic years!!

Word!!

Ever❤️

It's wonderful isn't it, even back then as a 13 year old kid I loved both bands, this was a firecracker of a combination. I didn't really know much about the Smiths then but I did when they released their hits compilation in 1992, and that also ensured I knew Johnny Marr was a genius too.

Nowadays, nobody knows their names, unless you had a parent, who brought their kids up to appreciate true music!

Two of the best non-singing singers ever.

@@kildogery one of the most non-sense comments ever

It's up there with the best.

Yes I think it is

Brilliant

English talent. North west

💯❤

All my liiiiifeeeeee 😊

Never knew this wasn’t Pet Shop Boys!…actually at one point I thought it was New Order!

I'm still getting away with it !

EUUUUU !!!! 🙋🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 DO BRAZIL !!!!

Hell Yes 100%

bass line is *clean. as. fuck.*

@@EconAtheist Marr's fingerprints all over that - always thought it was weird to have him as the central partner in a very electronic (no pun intended) act, but he probably contributed a lot more than just guitar and writing - he might be a wizard on the synths for all we know.

Paul dagger from Bristol?

Anne Dudley (Art of Noise) arranged the strings. There is an instrumental version as well which I love :)

What about Johnny?

THE best, nothing more or less

All influenced by USA.

@@nickfury1 and usa was influenced by uk music. and both uk and USA was influenced by German music (kraftwerk) whats your point?

@@dannydorko7075 well said

@Jock Odd Sock well, I agree but you don't need to be so NATIONALIST

The whole album was good, right?

Renato Queiroz Filho yep indeed.

it's catchy but, let's face it, it would have never made the cut on a psb or new order album because it's simply not as priceless as what they did with their principal bands.

just a great "feel good" tune

Disappointed is a much better Electronic song.

That's what I honestly noticed as well.🙂

Yes, it's just made me smile hugely.. Lovely.

I always wonder who he's smiling at. Moments like this are so... human.

It was authentic too. That’s probably why they left it in. Bless.

Me too , that little smile he gives. Priceless

Colin Jennings of Spennymoor ?

I remember spennymoor from when i was in the army .1989 was great

No Birmingham. Where is Spennymoor? Twined with hell on earth?

In the darkest depths of the North East 😂😂 , I am amused by your comment.

I approve this message ⬆️

Mohnny Jarr

The Crying Game

remember waiting impatiently for the album to release? man did i play the living shit out of it on release day.

Take me back.

Better than anything that's came out last couple of years for certain.

It does

I totally agree

Love how you tie another beautiful song into your response! 💕🎶😎

@@madamezimba1007 Why, thank you, Madame. Being Boring is probably my favourite PSB track.

It also looks like he's dabbing at the 2:10 mark in the video, decades before it became a thing! Hadn't noticed that until now.

I guess this song was a New Life for Neil eh?

He had too much time for himself.

Obviously, it's gotta be sampled, it's exactly the same thing

Two songs I never get tired of hearing..

I always think that, "love my way"

True!

Agreed! Not a bad thing by the way

It was a trip and a guide for sure!

You have the advantage of mining perfect music gems like this from the 80's and 90's which contrast starkly with the fake junk jewelry of today. I grew up when the Beatles invaded America and never heard this song from 1989/1990 until 2022. Refreshing and beautiful. Everything in its own time.

it was great. We made mix tapes of this and cruised all night. And speed cameras had not yet been invented. Wish you could have been there !

@@richardclarke376 Hahaha, there were speed camera's in the 80's in my country but not many, and that changed alright. We don't even have parking police walking around anymore but a car with camera's that work waaaaaaaay faster. Hell, the 80's were a time where life was simple and affortable and we could we do anything we wanted, so we were really free alright!

You're on the right track, Noah. Keep being awesome.

Never

@@jimhadfield6450 it's already old.

Never, never!!!!

Ano essa nusica gênios ❤❤

Gil Orms Oh yes sir! Some of the best of the best. This album has been classic staple in my collection since 1992.

Gil Orms and Anne Dudley. Listen to the orchestration, sound familiar. ABC Lexicon of Love.

I consider 'Britpop' a pejorative. New Order, Pet Shop Boys and the Smiths were so far above and superior to Britpop (which came along in the next decade, by the way)

I think Gil’s comment just related to British Pop artists not the Brit Pop era. This was released way before. This and album it was on is still a stone cold classic to this day......

1990

1989-90 was a mysterious, hopeful and happy time in my life.

I was born in 2005, I just have good taste thanks to my mother, born 1973.

Clothes, hot hatches, no mobiles, no Internet, no speed cameras, rammed pubs rammed clubs miami vice and to tie it all together the music with recreational and everyone each other . I was 19 in 89 and lived like we all did to enjoy.

In 1977, I was 22, and music took a seismic shift with Punk Rock, and the contrast of New Wave. By 1978, New Wave was my preference. I was 25 in 1980, and 30 in 1985. Living in Los Angeles, I bought Getting Away With It as an import UK CD single. The song with always sparkle. Today is the first time I saw the video!! Now you also know, many fans of this song didn't grow up in the 1980's. I just follow the music, decade after decade, buying it, and supporting bands and recording artists by seeing them in concert. Today, since the first decade of this century, I'm seriously into Alternative/Indie music. Fortunately, I've lived long enough to own and continue listening to music I've loved since 1960.

Agree❤️

i just heard this on the radio, i thought it was new order too 😱😱 i used shazam for recognise this song hahaha

heard it for 1st time in trader joes/westlake OH, thought it was psychedelic furs. it came up in those searches, now i have it.

Supergroup, my man.

Always wondered. Were the Pet Shop Boys employees who cleaned the animal cages etc., or customers? And was the name of the shop Petco?

Jason Todd 8

Oh yes, I agree 100% mate, then the 90s hit which was one long weekend for me! 🤪😛😜

Wasn't many bad tunes,alot often forgotten,but remembered almost instantly,and often the lyrics..😊

@@RUFF-UNIT I was on the 90s clubbing scene, progressive house music was the one for me, wasn't really interested in much pop chart stuff.

@@roguetrooper5288 check out balance 002 kasey Taylor cd2, if you don't know it and have the time ✨

If only I had a time machine, I'd go back to the 80s right now. Great time for music.

Instantly recognisable, agreed.

60 here too mate just gone bring back the 80s ay ❤

🤘

Probably not, just more ignorant

I wish that people would stop moaning about the current times all the time. All those who thought that the eighties were happier than that twenty tens are those who will also say that the twenty tens were happier than the twenty forties. Every decade has its good and bad times and while the eighties were probably better than the seventies, the eighties were riddled with financial recessions. Perhaps they should read some history books about life in the nineteenth century to see how good they have it in the twenty-first century.

The world is a happy place now!

@@daisychain3007 Correct 💪👍

100% agree

Until that darn group 'take that' came along!!!!! Darn it!!!!!

Of the primarily English speaking countries, I will concur Great Britain put out really good pop music.

U2 and clannad.

The Beatles helped

A music lovers' dream!!

Gay.....& more gay.... come on..

@@neilwhetham8978 point being?????

TRUE!
