Taken from their second studio album, Actually, and released as the album's third single on 12 October 1987, this remix was done in 2024 by The Blue Collar Bros. Go check out their channel; they've got some absolutely amazing fan mixes.
Rent was an early PSB song, written in 1984. The song is about a transactional relationship between two people. According to Neil Tennant, the title was chosen for its association with rent boys with the intention of being provocative, but the story he envisioned for the song was about a mistress of a powerful man. He's stated, "I've always imagined it's about a kept woman, and I always imagined it set in America. I vaguely thought of one of the Kennedys, for some reason, and imagined that this politician keeps this woman in a smart flat in Manhattan, and he's still got this family, and the two of them have some sort of relationship and they do love each other but it's all kind of secret...".
So I kind of kept that same theme loosely for my own video.....

Besides, I’m just a fan making ZERO money off these videos. I have refused to monetize my channel, because as a fan I refuse to make money off artists I respect and admire. I simply make these videos to share songs that I truly love, especially remixes, B-sides, and album tracks that have no official videos. YouTube has even blocked me from monetizing and instead THEY make money off me by putting ads in the videos.
