Editing Actually (section)

==Recording==
''Actually'' was recorded at [[Sarm Studios]] and [[Advision Studios]].<ref name="liner notes"/> On the album Pet Shop Boys worked with several producers, including [[Julian Mendelsohn]] and [[Stephen Hague]]. Mendelsohn produced and engineered half of the album's ten tracks, including the lead single and UK number one "It's a Sin", while Hague, who had produced the duo's previous album ''Please'', this time only produced a few tracks, including "What Have I Done to Deserve This?", and mixed "It's a Sin". "Heart", which went on to became a UK number one single, was produced by [[Andy Richards]] and mixed by Mendelsohn. Wanting to keep everything fresh and not lose perspective, the production method was usually to work only a few hours at the time on each track and then switch to another.<ref name="sound">{{cite web |last=Buskin |first=Richard |url=https://www.soundonsound.com/people/pet-shop-boys-its-sin |title=Pet Shop Boys 'It's A Sin' |work=[[Sound on Sound]] |date=December 2010 |access-date=4 June 2020 |archive-date=4 June 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200604192502/https://www.soundonsound.com/people/pet-shop-boys-its-sin |url-status=dead }}</ref>
