Pet Shop Boys

"The Pop Kids"

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Feb 16, 2016

Electronic pop legends Pet Shop Boys are set to issue a brand new LP this spring, and that's Super. Literally. Ahead of the April 1 album release through the duo's x2 imprint, you can peep a lyric video for the '90s-loving new single, "The Pop Kids."

Backed by a pulsating pop-house beat akin to something Pet Shop Boys would have produced a couple of decades back, the piece finds Neil Tennant's familiar, gentleman's croon reminiscing about long-gone university days. Instead of studies, though, it recalls time spent in London obsessing over the music scene and pop hits.

Visually, the video scrolls lyrics above various dancers and lasered-up scenarios.
