The new Best-Of-slash-Singles-Collection from Pet Shop Boys is out now in the UK. Pop Art comes in two varieties - regular (2 CDs, one called Pop the other called Art and the Pop Art Mix version that has a third CD of, you guessed it, remixes. To use the Reading Rainbow method of analysis, I think this is a fine collection, especially since it includes two new songs, "Miracles" (pitch-perfect pop) and "Flamboyant" (very electroclash, that one) and it has all the songs you know and some you should. Apparently, there's not a US release date firmed up for this yet. Let's hope it's sooner rather than later, eh?
