Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about It's a Sin - Disco Mix; 2018 Remaster [2018 Remastered Version]. By Songfacts®.

Pet Shop Boy Neil Tennant was raised Catholic and his lyrics on "It's A Sin" reflect his unfavorable view of the church. This caused a lot of controversy, but got the group plenty of attention and helped make the song a huge hit in the UK, where it became their second #1, following "West End Girls."

The ending stanza is sung in Latin. Loosely translated it reads: "Father my father, please forgive me for I have sinned, it is my fault, it is my fault."

Tennant wrote the lyrics to get back at some of his teachers at his former school, St. Cuthberts. The teachers said some harsh things about him when the song was released.
