Disappointed vs. Sad

By Jaxson

  • Disappointed

    “Disappointed” was the fourth single by the English band Electronic. Like their first single “Getting Away with It” it featured Neil Tennant of Pet Shop Boys as well as founding members Johnny Marr and Bernard Sumner. It was released in June 1992 on Parlophone soon after the demise of Factory Records. The single was even assigned the Factory catalogue number FAC 348, and the logo of the label remained on the artwork.
