"Getting Away with It" is the first single by the English band Electronic, which comprised Bernard Sumner of New Order, ex-Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr, and guesting vocalist Neil Tennant of the Pet Shop Boys. 
It was first released in 1989.
Musically, Bernard Sumner wrote the verse and Johnny Marr wrote the chorus.
The lyrics, co-written by Tennant with Sumner, are a parody of Marr's Smiths partner Morrissey, and his public stereotyping as morose and masochistic (Pet Shop Boys would further satirise this trend on their 1990 song "Miserablism").
Morrissey, for his part, criticized the song in a 1991 interview, calling it "totally useless" and joking that the song had a "very apt title".
In a 2021 interview with Music Radar, Marr revealed that Chris Lowe also worked on the track, citing the bassline as his work. 
ABC and The The, Drummer David Palmer programmed the track's drums.
Two music videos were made for "Getting Away with It".
The first, directed by Chris Marker and produced by Michael Shamberg for European use in 1989, featured Sumner, Marr and Tennant in a studio environment miming to the single edit of the song.
Additional footage of Marker's muse Catherine Belkhodja, strolling among peacocks through Paris Zoo and also singing to the track, was left out.
The second video, shot in 1990, was made for the US release.
Sumner and Tennant appeared, alternately, against a series of coloured backgrounds, with artistic effects superimposed.
Two women's faces are also panned in close-up.
The later version is available on the 2006 Get the Message DVD.

Neil introduces "from Blackpool, Lancashire, the one and only Mr Chris Lowe" and breaks into laughter mid-song as Chris messes up and plays out of tune (proof that he's playing live lol). They both crack up as if it's just the two of them watching TV on a Sunday afternoon, as if the world isn't watching. "He can't remember the chords," Neil jokes and adds "We were NEVER being boring, particularly in the end."
One true Lowetennant moment. 💗💗

#PetShopBoys - Two Divided By Zero (live) 2009
Pretty cool projections etc. And also a Pretty cool Mirror-ball Jacket there that #ChrisLowe has on there. In my club days, I would really want one of those! lol
Also I really dig the fashion models. I mean that is pretty cool!
I would love to do that an Art Show, just have a bunch of fancy folk walking around with colored cube heads meandering around looking at paintings without eyes or face at all. There would be no expression or facial reaction at all to lead anyone else looking at the paintings. That would be awesome and pretty Pop! lol

Australian James OFlaherty dies in Irish gas station explosion
The explosion was so large that it damaged a nearby apartment building and shattered the windows of nearby cottages. A man in his 20s remains in critical condition at St James’s Hospital in Dublin, while seven others continue to be treated at Letterkenny University Hospital in stable condition. Two women console each other at the site of an Apple Green service station explosion in Krislove, Ireland.attributed to him:Getty Images Among the 10 dead were four men, three women, two teenagers – a man and a woman – and the girl. Police Chief David Kelly told a news conference that initial evidence “points to a tragic accident.” Irish Prime Minister Michael Martin said the accident was an unspeakable tragedy for a small community of just a few hundred people. “People across this island will be stunned by the same sense of shock and utter devastation as the people of Chrislow at this tragic loss of life,” Martin said in a statement late Friday. “I would like to express my deepest condolences to their family and friends and to the entire Chrislo community, on the darkest days for Donegal and the entire country.” Bernard Doherty, who lives nearby and knows all but one of the victims, told national broadcaster RTE that he and others began clearing the debris with tractors and trailers before the Irish Coast Guard and a specialist rescue team from nearby Northern Ireland joined emergency services at the scene. . loading “The rubble was blown across the front yard up to the road. There was everything from tin to blocks, floorboards, and contents of the store lying all over the place,” adding that one person was pulled out alive. “About 20 seconds after we landed at the scene, we knew what lay ahead.” Get a direct note from our foreigner correspondents About what’s making headlines around the world.
