Pet Shop Boys was formed by Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe in 1983. Neil Tennant was at that time working as a reporter at the English pop magazine "Smash Hits", and Chris Lowe was studying to become an architect. They met for the first time in August 1981, in an electronics store when Neil Tennant went to buy some parts for his synthesizer. In the summer of 1983 they went to USA where they recorded "West End Girls" and "Opportunities". These songs were released as singles in the following year, but they became only small hits in USA and France, so they continued as reporter and student. In 1985 they re-recorded the two songs with another producer and they now became big hits, especially "West End Girls" that became No. 1 in both England and USA. They released two more hit-singles and the album "Please" in 1986. The name "Please" was meant as a pun, you should go into the record store and say: "Can I have the Pet Shop Boys album please". After "Please" they released the remix album "Disco" which had mixes of the four hit-singles from "Please" and two B-sides. In 1987 they released the album "Actually" with four hit-singles. The name "Actually" was also meant as a pun, because they wrote "Not from the album actually" on the single "Always On My Mind", an Elvis Presley cover which was released in the same year. In 1988 they released "Introspective" with remixes, for example of some of their singles and the song "I'm Not Scared" which they had written for the band Eighth Wonder. In 1990 they released "Behaviour", for example with the singles "Being Boring", "So Hard" and "Jealousy". My Top 40 Pet Shop Boys 
In 1991 they released a collection, "Discography", with their first 18 singles. In 1993 Pet Shop Boys released the album "Very" with the hit-single "Go West", which is a cover of Village People's song. In 1994 they released "Disco 2", yet another remix album. This album is by most fans considered to be their least good album. In 1995 they released yet another collection, "Alternative". That album contains all of their B-sides and some bonus tracks from their CD-singles. It's a double CD with 30 songs where they experiment more than on their singles and album songs. In the spring of 1996 they released a single together with David Bowie called "Hallo Spaceboy". In September 1996 they released the album "Bilingual". From that album they released the singles "Before", "Se A Vida E (That's The Way Life Is)", "Single" and "A Red Letter Day". In July 1997 they released the single "Somewhere", a cover of the classic Bernstein/Sondheim song. Neil Tennant produced a Noel Coward tribute album which was released in April 1998. In July 1999 Pet Shop Boys released the single "I Don't Know What You Want But I Can't Give It Any More". In September 1999 they released the single "New York City Boy". The album "Nightlife" was released on October 11. January 29 2000 Pet Shop Boys had a concert at the Globe, Stockholm, Sweden. February 7 2000 their single "You Only Tell Me You Love Me When You're Drunk" was released in Sweden. July 9 2000 they had a concert in Karlstad, Sweden, at a "Children's Cancer Gala".
