Pop geniuses Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe of Pet Shop Boys choose the tunes that made them in this week's Tracks Of My Years.

Pet Shop Boys have sold over 50 million records worldwide in an astonishing career spanning four decades. From 鈥楧omino Dancing鈥� to 鈥榃est End Girls鈥�, their songs have been at the forefront of electronic music ever since they met in a hi-fi store in London in 1981.

Pet Shop Boys started 2024 with a brand new single, 'Loneliness', from their current album, 'Nonetheless'. They recently performed in Radio 2鈥檚 Piano Room, and they鈥檒l be playing five nights at London鈥檚 Royal Opera House in July.

Neil and Chris鈥� first two choices are from The Supremes and The Beatles.
