5.0 out of 5 stars Something of a return to form, 20 Mar 2002
By Neil Lewis (London) - See all my reviews
  
Poppier than some of their recent output, Home and Dry is a driving rock-influenced ballad, Sexy Northerner a decent if deadpan dance number and Always is vocoder-laced and wistful.

Hopefully this single points the direction the Boys are taking for the upcoming album 'Release'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Instant Pet Shop Boys injection!, 14 Mar 2002
By A Customer
Yes, the first single from the PSB's in a dogs age to be instantly likeable! I did like "IDKWYWBICGIA", "NYC Boy", and "Drunk" but they were definite growers. "Home and Dry" is a lovely irreverent little love song on it's own, but listened to in conjunction with some of the album tracks on "Release" it also seems to form part of a commentary about a lost loved one in the World Trade Centre atrocities. Whether these songs were written before or after that I have no idea, but the sentiment and lyrics flowing through the songs is uncanny...

4.0 out of 5 stars Good choice of tracks but still quite non-interesting..., 26 Feb 2002
By A Customer
At first one have to thank the PSB for making some of the 'Break 4 Love' mixes available in Europe, and the ambient mix of H&D is a gem! Still I can't help thinking that it would have been more interesting seeing other renditions of
the title track than the already US-released mixes of the collaboration made with Peter Rauhofer. The B4L-mixes are well chosen though, and the Hi-Pass mix is a lovely 70's influenced thingy that will make ya move, the UK radio mix is also much better than the US-dito in my opinion! But the problem is that most of us will be buying this CD for one track - the ambient mix of H&D, casual fans won't be buying CD2, and the rest of us have probably allready gotten the US imports of B4L (or vice versa if you live in the U.S.) But should you by any chance have forgotten/missed out on B4L, then buy this for gods sake =)
