Pet Shop Boys cover Dave Clark Five, Kate McGarrigle on new ‘Together’ single

Pet Shop Boys

The Pet Shop Boys today announced details of their new single, “Together,” which will be released Nov. 29 in the U.K. — backed by new studio recordings of two cover songs — and appear on the duo’s forthcoming best-of Ultimate.

Although full tracklists haven’t yet been unveiled, PSB’s site reports that the single will be released as two different CDs and a digital download, and will feature, as B-sides, studio versions of “Glad All Over,” the Dave Clark’s Five’s 1963 No. 1 single that the band performed in Blackpool this past summer; and “I Cried For Us,” a Kate McGarrigle song that Neil Tennant sang at her memorial concert in London last June (see video of both, plus hear a 30-second clip of ‘Together,’ below).

The single also will include an extended version of “Together” mixed by Tim Powell, as well as a number of other unnamed “dance remixes.” The duo also is scheduled to shoot a music video for the song later this month in Eastern Europe.
