“So goddam handsome he makes me anxious,

He holds my hand through the sad advances

Why wouldn't he though?

I’m just the open secret no-one's ever gonna blow”

"The Mauritian Badminton Doubles Champion, 1973 is a pop song, and as such it covers all the classic pop bases, namely death, badminton, and cathedrals."

and as i sing i watch you diving / into a swimming pool that shines like a screen / and i call out, 'isn't this living?'

A cover of Pet Shop Boys’ “So Hard”. A stunning reinterpretation by Scottish singer/songwriter Hamish Hawk.

So Hard ★ Hamish Hawk

I double-cross you

and you get mysterious mail

I’ve tried hard not to shock you

It’s hard not to with the things I could say

Tell me why don’t we try

not to break our hearts and make it so hard

Tell me why don’t we try

not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves?

You lock your letters in a box

and you’ve hidden the key

I go one better — I’m indebted

to a contact magazine

Tell me why don’t we try

not to break our hearts and make it so hard

Tell me why don’t we try

not to break our hearts and make it so hard for us?

Everybody’s got to live together

just to find a little peace of mind there

If you give up your affairs forever

I will give up mine

But it’s hard

so hard

I’m always hoping you’ll be faithful

but you’re not I suppose

We’ve both given up smoking ’cause it’s fatal

so whose matches are those?

Tell me why don’t we try

not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves?

Why don’t we try

not to break our hearts and make it so hard

Tell me why don’t we try

not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves?

"May 15, 2025 PSB Songs Performed by Other Artists The Scottish singer/band Hamish Hawk will include a remake of "So Hard" on their upcoming EP Covers II. I've therefore noted this fact on my page devoted to Pet Shop Boys songs performed by other artists."

(from Geowayne)

But also:

"Hamish and his band have put out a covers EP before, one that included versions of songs by Leonard Cohen, The Smiths and more, and it was a process they enjoyed enough to want to do again in the future. This time round Hamish and the band have lovingly rendered songs they admire from the likes of The Pet Shop Boys (whose Neil Tennant is an admirer of Hamish's songwriting in return), Angel Olsen, The Eurythmics and even Sheryl Crow."

I love it when my favourite artists like each other's work
