Pet Shop Boys to Release "Christmas" EP on December 15th

Pet Shop Boys
The British electro-duo Pet Shop Boys are due to release a special holiday EP on December 15th entitled "Christmas." The EP includes a new version of "It Doesn't Often Snow at Christmas," "My Girl," a new version of "All Over The World," a special medley of "Viva La Vida" & "Domino Dancing," and a remix of "My Girl."

Pet Shop Boys
"It Doesn't Often Snow At Christmas" was originally an exclusive Christmas single issued to members of the official Pet Shop Boys fan club back in 1997. "All Over The World" is a track that appears on the Boys' latest album, Yes and both updates were produced by and the Pet Shop Boys. The Boys' rendition of the Motown Classic "My Girl" was originally performed at last year's charity benefit "Marius de VriesCan You Bear It?" which honored former assistant and close friend of Chris & Neil, Dainton Connell who died in a car accident. The "Viva La Vida"/"Domino Dancing" medley has been a big hit on their world tour, the EP features a Stuart Price-produced studio version.

Pet Shop Boys
In addition to this fabulous news, the Pet Shop Boys just learned that their album, Yes received a Grammy nomination in the Best Electronic/Dance Album category, their 5th overall Grammy nomination. The band also hit the top of the Billboard Dance Charts with their single "Did You See Me Coming," which was a follow up to their other #1 "Love, Etc." It's nice to see a band with as much longevity as the Pet Shop Boys. Here's to many more number ones!

Billboard Dance/Club Play Chart - July 30, 2009

Here's Thursday's Hot Dance/Club Play Chart from Billboard. LA-based dance/electro-pop singer Erika Jayne takes the top spot this week, seeing PSB drop back down to #9. Lady Gaga's "LoveGame" also drops from #5 to #10. I'm BEYOND thrilled that the Paradiso Girls have hit the Top 5 (although I wish they'd hit the mainstream charts with just as much gusto). Not any other big moves in the Top Ten, but a side note...I'm really hoping that all of these rumors circulating about the Pussycat Dolls breaking up aren't true. I can't say that I'd be surprised if they were true, I'm just hoping they aren't. The world still needs some Doll Domination!

Billboard Dance/Club Play Chart - July 23, 2009

Billboard has always been one of my top resources for this blog. My favorite sections? The news section of course, the charts and the Ask Billboard column (now written by Gary Trust).

Sometime early this week or late last week, Billboard.com got a complete makeover. While it took me a little while to get used to it...I'm really starting to like it. It appears that the Ask Billboard column has now been melded together with Chart Beat. Makes sense I guess. The charts section AMAZING now. I love it. Gray and pink...good color scheme, Billboard. Nice work.

Every Thursday without fail, I check out Billboard's Hot Dance/Club Play Chart to see which of my favorite dance artists are moving where. This chart tracks "the week's most popular songs played in dance clubs, compiled from reports from a national sample of club DJs."

Billboard Dance Club Play Chart
Starting today, and every Thursday after I'll be posting the top 10 from Billboard's Hot Dance/Club Play Chart. Sure, it's redundant if you read Billboard on your own but if you don't and you like dance music - I've got you covered!
