TREVOR HORN - PRODUCED by TREVOR HORN

and you may find time will blind you

Wow, I love a ton of this stuff but will always vote for "Video Killed The Radio Star".

I feel like I should go for one of the ABC singles, as The Lexicon Of Love is my favourite album ever, but there's so many masterpieces to choose from. Both the Buggles songs are incredible songs with some of the best production I've ever heard (their two albums are so good), the Frankie singles are still as thrilling as ever and Left To Own Devices is my second favourite song by my favourite band. Then there's Moments In Love, Mirror Mirror, All The Things She Said and Slave To The Rhythm which are all 10/10 singles. Really tough call.

“Look of Love” but close run with the PSB options for me.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

should have been a ranked poll

Not my absolute favourite here (and Beatbox & Mabuse are all time) but I think STTR (Blooded) for the production. Cry is pretty incredible too IIRC.

Went with 'It's Alright.'

I need to dig out all my old Pet Shops Boys records. Haven't given those a good listen in several years.

+1 for Cry

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Shit i need to listen to like 3/4 of these songs _right now_

Can’t remember what I voted for, but would be content with almost everything which got a vote winning.

OTM, with Crazy being my main exception. Everything on 0 votes was fairly overlooked.

I mean I love YES but no way OOALH is one of his best productions. And the Dollar singles are masterful ( "Videotheque" being my fave).

especially when you see how many votes Two Tribes (Hibakusha Mix) got which is probably one of the best 12" singles ever.

Hibakusha was kind of elusive at the time (3,000 copies?) so had an aura but really it's not better than Annihilation (or even Carnage) despite the fun Linn / Fairlight freakout bit.

point taken.
I do prefer the Annihilation mix as well tbh.

the fact is, both are ZTT at their height brilliance ..

I went with these.

Missed this obv. Would have been between "The Look Of Love", "Give Me Back My Heart" and "Video Killed The Radio Star". All absolutely ace. But probably the latter after all.

Look who's playing the bass in this Dire Straits tribute band:
