This 2025 Hidden Cameras single with an April 11 release date features a Pet Shop Boys remix, although that wouldn't be released online until April 25 and physically (12-inch vinyl) until May 9. Some online sources had credited the remix to "Hidden Cameras feat. Pet Shop Boys," which had suggested the Boys' involvement extends to more than mere remixing, but the official release describes it simply as a "Pet Shop Boys Remix."
The original track was already decidedly dance-oriented, so it's up to the Boys to amp up, so to speak, what was already there to begin with. Intriguingly, their remix is a bit reminiscent of Frankie Knuckles' classic house mix of "I Want a Dog" as it appeared on Introspective, though not nearly as bass-heavy. But there's no getting around the strong house influence on this mix, revealing its ongoing impact four decades after its development on dance music in general and on PSB in particular. Again, as on their simultaneously released remix of Tina Turner's "Hot for You Baby," there's no trace (at least unmistakably so) of Neil's voice. Their treatment of "How Do You Love?" is, however, far less idiosyncratic than on Tina's track and is far more conventionally designed for the dance floor.
