Behaviour (1990), by Pet Shop Boys, is an all-time great album. One of the surprisingly few albums ever made without filler.
Despite them having hit-filled albums, such as Please, and Actually, preceding it, this is their best. Whereas Actually can sound a bit of an eclectic hits compilation, as can, to a lesser degree, Please, Behaviour's masterful Harold Faltermeyer production leaves it sounding like a proper album. With each song being different, yet similar, it sounds like a dream from start to finish - with Being Boring (one of their best songs) the perfect introduction, and Jealousy being the perfect grand finale (running orders really do matter).
The only way you could improve this masterpiece is to switch in the Extended Dance Mix for So Hard, and the even more dramatic Extended Version of Jealousy.
If you don't like this you don't like music, so GTFO:
6/5!
FYI - Be sure to listen to all PSB's albums up to, and including, Very/Relentless (1993). After that, mostly just check out the singles, 'A Red Letter Day', was good, with 'Somewhere', and 'Love Is A Bourgeois Contruct' being great. Although I haven't heard everything since myself.
