Pet Shop Boys

Los británicos Pet Shop Boys no pararon de exprimir la fórmula que les dió a conocer a mediados de los 80 y les abrió las puertas del éxito. La utilización de sonidos dance/electrónicos abarrotados con una absorbente producción, y melodías muy comerciales, les llegó a consagrar como uno de los dúos más conocidos de la música pop, llegando a vender más de 100 millones de discos y numerosos premios a lo largo de estas últimas décadas.
Canciones como "West End Girls", "Suburbia", "Always on My Mind", "Heart", o "It's a Sin" sonaban sin parar en todas las radio fórmulas y se posicionaron en el número 1 en las listas de medio mundo. Su éxito era igual en todas las pistas de baile de cualquier discoteca que se considerara estar en la onda de la moda. Sus componentes eran Neil Tennant y Chris Lowe. Ellos se conocieron en una tienda de artículos electrónicos en Chelsea, Londres de 1981. Neil era crítico musical, y Chris estudiaba arquitectura. Ambos abandonaron esos proyectos para compartir su devoción por la música y convertirse en un grupo de referencia dance que ha influido en muchas generaciones.Más videos

Letra

When I look back upon my life
It's always with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin
At school they taught me how to be
So pure in thought and word and deed
They didn't quite succeed
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin
Father, forgive me, I tried not to do it
Turned over a new leaf, then tore right through it
Whatever you taught me, I didn't believe it
Father, you fought me, 'cause I didn't care
And I still don't understand
So I look back upon my life
Forever with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to - it's a sin
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
(Confiteor Deo omnipotenti vobis fratres, quia peccavi nimiscogitatione,
verbo, opere et omissione, mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maximaculpa)
[trans. "I confess to almighty god,
and to you my brothers,
that I have sinned exceedingly
in thought, word, act and omission,
through my fault, through my fault,
through my most grievous fault"]
