"I wouldn't normally do this kind of thing" is the third single from Pet Shop Boys fifth album "Very". It was released in the UK by Parlophone Records on start_date|1993|11|29 where it eventually reached #13 in the chart. It reached #2 in the US Club chart where it was released in start_date|1994|1.

Bonus material

The single was bolstered by a large amount of bonus material available across a wide range of formats, on top of the nine remixes commissioned. The main b-side is "Too many people", but the single also featured remixes of "Please" tracks "Violence" and "West End girls".

Packaging

In the UK, the first CD single came in a rubber sleeve, that held both CD one and two. This packaging was quite reminiscent for "Very Relentless".

As with the previous singles from "Very", the duo donned new outfits for the single's promotional campaign. Chris featured in a blonde wig with a pink and white costume, while Neil was adorned in a brunette wig and darker clothing.

Robbie Williams version

A cover version of "I wouldn't normally do this kind of thing" by Robbie Williams appeared as the b-side to his singe "Let Me Entertain You" in 1998. His version of the song can also be heard in the US sitcom "Friends" in the episode entitled "The One with the Routine".
