Today I was in the Uber and the radio was playing this song, even though I've had been stressed about my problems this song bring me this kind of calm. Hopefully I knew the band before.

Why Pet Shop Boys' Being Boring is the perfect pop song.Two decades ago, Pet Shop Boys released their opus to life, love and loss. For me, it's the greatest single of all time.--Later this year - 12 November, to be precise - marks the 20th anniversary since Being Boring, the greatest single of all time, was released.Greatest single of all time, I hear you cry? Hang on a minute. Well, you're not alone. Even Neil Tennant, when informed of the honour, admitted: "No one thought that when it came out!" But first, a few facts. Being Boring was the second single from the Pets' fifth album, Behaviour, an autumnal masterpiece. It stalled at No 20, but quickly became a fan favourite (for me, like many other 15-year-olds stuck in suburbia, its lack of commercial success underlined its greatness).What makes the perfect pop song is, of course, another blog altogether, but whatever the formula - let's say, 2:52 min of verse/chorus + sentiment - we're still essentially dealing with subjectivity. So my argument is a personal one.None the less, certain factors are incontestable. Being Boring is a classic minor-key grower, its imprint on the soul deepens with repeated plays. Over to Tennant (in a 1996 BBC Radio 1 documentary) to shed some light: "We were always fascinated about the way Stock Aitken Waterman would change key for choruses. And so the verse of Being Boring was in A minor or D minor, maybe, after we went up a semi-tone into A flat for the chorus. Which we would never have done before. It wasn't an attempt to be mature; it was actually an attempt to be like Stock Aitken Waterman."Intriguingly, what began as an attempt to do out-and-out pop (if we are to believe the sometimes disingenuous Tennant) morphs into something else. And it's this juxtaposition, this delicate balance between disposability and maturity that forms part of the song's elixir.Another ingredient is autobiographical detail, which Tennant sums up: "The first verse is about all my friends in Newcastle [one in particular, Chris Dowell]. It just described what our aspirations were. And in the second verse I moved to London with an idea to go to polytechnic … and the third verse is looking back at what's happened and I'm doing what I'm doing, and he's dead. I mean, it's quite simple."Perhaps, yet its themes are anything but. In the panoramic lyrical sweep from the 1920s to the 70s and, finally, the 90s, Being Boring really is about everything: innocence and experience, ambition and self-realisation ("I never dreamt that I would get to be/The creature that I always hoped to be"), love and (AIDs-related) loss ("All the people I was kissing/Some are here, some are missing"), friendship, nostalgia, ennui and, of course, defiance ("We had too much time to find for ourselves"). Tennant's plaintive vocal style only adds to the pathos. And it's all infused with the glamour and spirit of writer Zelda Fitzgerald (whose 1922 essay, Eulogy on the Flapper, contained the song's ideological kernel: "She refused to be bored chiefly because she wasn't boring.")There are other factors that, like an elegant interior, don't add anything structurally to my argument, but are still intriguing: the oddly successful (though often unscannable) rhyming couplets ("When I went I left from the station/With a haversack and some trepidation"); the sophisticated production; harp flourishes, wah-wah guitar, eerily extended opening note (from which the "overture" breaks out in an unexpected direction); the subtle irony of the title, with Pet Shop Boys playing on the perception of them as "boring"; and the black-and-white Bruce Weber-directed video, a thing of beauty, with its nudity, poodles, white horses, tap dancers, writhing couples and handwritten scrawl of intent: "The song is about growing up ..."But greatest single ever, you ask, really? Aren't we dealing with something intangible here? Yes, but if art exists, as the writer Annie Dillard argues, "to make the stone stony", what could be stonier? Being Boring has followed me through my own teenage parties, student days, fumbled relationships and drunken evenings. In the summer it feels nostalgic, rose-tinted; in the winter it's a sun-beam, a cause for celebration. "I remember dancing to this," says one of the hundreds of comments on RU-clip, "and I'd get tears in my eyes thinking of all the friends and lovers I've lost, where my life has gone and where it ended up." In short, does another song evoke, so perfectly, the sigh of experience with the hope of living?

Life was so good in the 1980s and early 1990s... If a time portal opened up to the early 1980's I would cross oceans to get to it before it closed. : ) These guys were one of a kind generational group that made life so good!

The room in this video looks a lot like Freddy Mercury's party room in Bohemian Rhapsody...

"I never dreamt that I would get to be the creature that I always meant to be but I thought in spite of dreams you'd be sitting somewhere here with me". It brings back so many memories and with them, the certainty that innocence, once lost, can never be regained. Thank you, Pet Shop Boys.

T minus fifteen seconds, guidance is okay)
When I look back upon my life
It's always with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin
At school they taught me how to be
So pure in thought and word and deed
They didn't quite succeed
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin
Father, forgive me, I tried not to do it
Turned over a new leaf, then tore right through it
Whatever you taught me, I didn't believe it
Father, you fought me, 'cause I didn't care
And I still don't understand
So I look back upon my life
Forever with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to - it's a sin
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
(Confiteor Deo omnipotenti vobis fratres, quia peccavi nimis cogitatione
Verbo, opere et omissione, mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa)
