"I Made My Excuses and Left" by the Pet Shop Boys from the album Fundamental. 2006.
I kinda always figured one day the Pet Shop Boys would get a feature. Not because of any favoritism, but rather their... unique blandness. How can they make the bland unique? Well, the way I see it, Mr. Lead Singer fronts the charge from his microphone easy-chair. He doesn't quite sing so much as talk in drawn out tones. And I don't mean that sing-talking/rapping dealio some pop artists like to call upon. No, he just tries to match the subdued, almost lazy feel of the track around him. I can't think of any edge-of-your-seat or edgy songs by the group, and even the hardest-hitting one that comes to mind kind of drones through the vocals. It's like a salt-free saltine cracker. Perhaps you can dip it into a soup or something, but you just have to chew through it.
I do love my saltines though...
