Go West - We Close Our Eyes • TopPop

[@littlenige]

God the 80's were fucking amazing.

[@siturl5834]

They were far better than that :P

[@sl4983]

Understatement!

[@supercali1471]

Peter Cox always have the good looks of a big screen matinee idol in the likes of James Dean, Rudolf Valentino, Alain Delon, etc. Their popular 80’s songs always remind me of my youth!♥️

[@siturl5834]

"Go West" did some really epic songs.

[@victoriaupton430]

The 114 disllikers obviously don't appreciate the brilliance of this amazing English group and how many groups are still going from the 80s I am 41 and this is my favourite group timeless music and very talented men

[@ricardoavecilla6284]

complete agree with you, saludos! 58 and enjoying some much amazing music.

[@eddherring4972]

I think the dislikers went east

[@jn683]

the era when music was great. i can listen to this all day. every day.

[@sablesenegal7488]

One of my favorite British bands of the '80s decade!

[@arturbomert9877]

Vocal harmony between 3:00 and 3:10 is simply extraordinary for that kind of music. Great band.

[@siturl5834]

Incredible music.

[@erikr3180]

An unforgettable band that was rarely heard on the radio!

[@dannydorko7075]

you can't be talking about UK radio?...

[@michelelaraia7358]

Non so in 🇮🇹

[@llamashockz]

@Kim Minseok which one?

[@lolcowm0rph]

@Kim Minseok GTA vice city is the one you're talking about

[@Havanacuba1985]

Yes here in U.K. they were on local radio constantly

[@MonicaTanAnLeng]

One of my absolute favorites! I can listen to this song for hours.

[@sl4983]

RIGHT?

[@antoniogimeno207]

absolutely underrated!

[@frankstudent]

Look at the people all around. No phones in the air. Everybody’s dancing, and in the moment.

[@sl4983]

Yup!

[@darren-q5n]

exactily

[@Zaaaaaaaaaaaaa1]

Amen!!!!!

[@26sd135]

His voice is Amazing.

[@juanricarddohuerta4847]

Agree

[@crashburn3292]

@Ronald Jordan It's not called "miming" it's called lip synching, and your punctuation sucks genius.

[@bankerguy66]

Peter Cox a very underrated voice.

[@48brianm]

This takes me back to when I was actually happy. Alas it seems so very long ago.

[@noelmurphy406]

Same as. Even the ‘dancing’ takes me back. It was just a simple drop of the shoulders coinciding with a bending of the knees, all to the beat 🤪

[@ajs41]

Sorry that you aren't happy today. I'm always happy listening to 80s music.

[@robertbinstead7662]

yeah like 40 years ago

[@YvieT]

Same here. Better times. I was in primary school when this song came out. Loved singing along to it on the radio with my brother 🎶

[@halenbud]

You Ain’t Lying

[@emmapeart6101]

Great song and band. Bring back the 80s ♥️.

[@NordiskSeger]

One of the most underrated hits of the 1980's. They play it rarely here on Swedish radio (although it happens) but a lot more often in British and Irish radio I noticed. Anyway, no matter how stressed I am, if this song plays, I always remain in the car and listen til it ends.

[@MB-zm8lc]

I absolutely love this song 80's pop at it's finest. GO WEST!

[@rhannay39]

Peter Cox has an amazing voice, Go West's version of "What you won't do for love" is brilliant.

[@素ぽいな]

ぶっちぎりてカッコいいです、本当に⤴️💨🙆💪

[@kamilahakilah6299]

Mannnn. They were such a good group. Have most of the vinyl on 12inch. Love peter's,voice.

[@Secret-sw8ih]

This ROCKS! 🤬 I love musical people who never miss a beat. He's SUCH a FABULOUS singer ....oomph! Yas!!!!

[@Secret-sw8ih]

He's just got a very masculine powerful voice. Love it ☺️

[@nufforme]

I'm usually up on pop culture and music. It love to know why a front man with chops like that, musicians and back up like that disappeared so quickly. This was bumping in Europe at the time. They have no idea the hype and inspiration it gave me when I was down. One of the ones that picked me up when I need a boost. It's one of those that will have you dancing, like no one is there. Cheers.

[@dannostalgia]

I'm 44 and living my second life through the lenses of an 80's era, my friend. Finally, living the dream.

[@RETRO.86]

80s generation had the best dance moves for sure 🙂

[@GatMan5019]

No.

[@MrCreepandMrJeep]

Absolutely 💯

[@Hal-fx9xx]

​@@GatMan5019you prefer twerking?

[@ericfreeman273]

He was such a cool artist of that time. what a great mover

[@vandamme514]

One of my favorite groups of all-time. Much underrated group.

[@josephcosta9772]

Here I am! I simply love this song! ❤️✌️

[@marktrbovic251]

Everybody rockin and grooving and nobody up themselves

[@sl4983]

That was the 80s!!

[@liztuckwell4452]

Saw them in concert at The London Palladium on Sunday night and they were great!

[@Konketsuthelonewolf]

I remember in the 90's some radio stations had King Of Wishful Thinking on repeat.

[@marcelmorton3811]

That chorus gives me goosebumps!

[@jesusebelortuazon9847]

Another one of my favorite duo back in the days...two gorgeous guys that rocked my world..luv luv Go West ❤️

[@iainrobb2875]

Really should have been massive

[@svrsvr6183]

I think it was massive at the time.

[@richardmaddocks4243]

It still is! 😂

[@Olegzyan]

a positive sound of the eighties! very inspiring!

[@zzzzxxxx341]

He's got powerful voice.

[@bethanylisapeake1336]

2024! I’m a 1988 baby and love this song! 🤗

[@Secret-sw8ih]

I was born 1978 & I adore this song! It rocks!!

[@Secret-sw8ih]

[@orangejuice1078]

He made unique vocals without oversinging

[@EdgarSoe]

I was looking for this song for years. Thank you, Shazam.

[@roccoparks]

Whose listening in 2024

[@skintrader100]

And saw them perform a month ago. He's got a good voice live as well.

[@sl4983]

[@ingafromaustria]

[@jimd1968]

Me, its flipping awesome

[@IngridNesbitt]

Me ❤

[@davidtexmex1616]

Loving the 80s feels throughout this

[@MrCreepandMrJeep]

I remember watching this on TV with my brother.

[@Secret-sw8ih]

Now that was super cool dude singing right there..his mannerisms etc were spot on! And the other guy dancing...well, ladies, who doesn't like an almost naked very fit man in a see through plastic suit? 😁👍🏻😆

[@Secret-sw8ih]

I'm sure my comment was intended for another video on KZbin!! Not this one?!

[@highbury1972]

I just crushed that Peter Cox is not rocking that gig in his vest and pipe wrench!!

[@ricardomauricioaraya7625]

I heard this song around 2006 for the first time at work while listening to a clasic 80's radio station I liked and the beat never left my head, but I never knew the song or band name... Until Shazam helped me figure it out a year or two ago... This song is so 80's and the videos are so cheese but I love it so much. Even though I never heard it when it originally came out, it takes me back to better days when I was a kid...

[@eduardohinojosa8366]

Temasooooooi. Muy buena Canción. Vivan los 80’s 🇨🇱🇬🇧

[@richardcoles2432]

So much energy...love it!

[@JPacGibson]

Such an underrated band. You can’t tell so much in this clip, but Katie Humble has a beautiful set of pipes. Strong singer ❤️

[@jondishmonmusicandstuff2753]

Boy oh boy!!! I used to snap my neck to this in the bars. This was a jam.

[@AbdulKuddus-rm4pd]

I used to think they were an American pop duo. But alas left with egg on my face. However his voice and their music was so brill. Miss the 80s.

[@Lily_of_th3_V4ll3y]

I think I'm hypnotized by his dance moves & voice. But it's not a bad thing !

[@RobV-i5n]

Me & my beautiful wife and I we're at the O2 to see this what a night the guys are right always Treat Her Like A Lady ❤

[@davidbeverly6411]

How much more fucking 80's can you get than this.....

[@discosisterwife6440]

I just want to thank Paul Rudd for remembering this duo in such a great way so recently.

[@victaylor1]

I never thought Rudd got the dancing that good.

[@terrywho22]

!!! Just saw that for the first time. 😂 🤣😂 🤣😂 🤣 Thanks for mentioning it.

[@melissawright1979]

@@victaylor1 I thought he did great!

[@sassymess7111]

Y'all, I'll be 55 next week. This...Was..My...JAM! Bck in the day!!

[@TheRunner75]

Thanks. Good 80s song.

[@ingeborremans9592]

Dit was zo een grote hit top ❤❤❤❤❤

[@monstergreen6728]

Got to love the 80's they were the best of times!!!!

[@tastybrownie7448]

This song is probably more relevant nowadays than it was back then even.

[@Secret-sw8ih]

This is awesome!

[@evypeace03]

Never close those gorgeous eyes! 👀

[@noelmurphy406]

That’s some shoulder droppin’ right there 🕺

[@LogiForce86]

Let's not start about shoulder pads though. The trend of the 80s... everything you bought had them.

[@marktrbovic251]

Great sound on this video

[@KadeSutherland]

Iconic🎉

[@jacksquat4140]

I watched this video on the same day I saw Peter Cox singing it in 2022. He may no longer have any hair, but his pipes are still pure gold.

[@sl4983]

LOVING this!!! Cool setting!

[@capitan_nostalgia]

Que nostalgia genera está canción a pesar que no había nacido 😢

[@Olly117g]

Es la nostalgia que anhelamos y se vuelve hasta real aunque no vivimos en esa época.

[@monstergreen6728]

got to love the 80's!!!

[@valguz9519]

Peter Cox 🥰🥰🥰

[@euanelliott3613]

In the mid '80's I was in college and after class I would walk to the city centre and drop into my favourite cafe for coffee. They had a tape playing that one of the girls had made at home, and this was on it. Hello Jill and Karen.

[@abelcortesquiroz2653]

Excelente canción me trae gratos momentos del ayer gran tema

[@angelamartin5003]

First time I ever saw him in the video for this song with the wrench I nearly fell off my chair he's absolutely gorgeous. I was eighteen at the time.

[@williameggleton414]

Now THIS is FUNKY!! : D

[@atifmir7409]

Still can't believe we had a music program that had the actual artists "perform" but really just mimed to the music.

[@nowlovemerightlikeiknowyoucan]

I looove the way Peter Cox dance! hoho!

When being spastic was cool?

[@josemarialopez9083]

Nací en diciembre de 1981 la mejor época de la música en inglés tenía 3 años cuando tema circulaba en las radios.

[@sauquoit13456]

On this day in 1985 {October 5th} Go West performed "We Close Our Eyes" on the U.S.A. nationally syndicated television program, 'Soul Train'... Earlier in 1985 on April 7th it peaked at #5 {for 1 week} on the United Kingdom's Official Top 100 Singles chart, and it stayed on the chart for fourteen weeks... And on the same 'ST' show the duo also performed "Don't Look Down", two months later on December 1st, 1985 it would peak at #13 {for 2 weeks} on the UK Top 100 Singles chart, and it spent ten weeks on the chart... Between 1985 and 1993 the London, England duo had thirteen records on the UK Top 100 Singles chart, one made the Top 10, the above 'We Close Our Eyes"... And from the 'For What It's Worth' department, the day the duo appeared on 'Soul Train' their "Eye to Eye" was at position #42 on Billboard's Hot Dance Club Play chart, but they didn't perform it on the show??? May Don Cornelius {1936 - 2012} R.I.P.

[@unsolicited577]

They did perform “Eye to Eye” on Soul Train. They also performed “We Close Our Eyes” as their, “come back later and play another one of your songs” (in Don Cornelius’ voice) song.

[@ersomey11]

i love the guitar part! lol

[@onlyme7036]

I'd forgotten how gorgeous he was

[@julianb9548]

My wife tells me that Peter Cox is one of her 80s crushes and this is a very sexy look (I see her point but not my type!!) However I will agree that Go West is a great group (saw them live with Tony Hadley and ABC a few years ago- dragged along by my wife!), Peter is a superb singer and highly under-rated. Fabulous song too.

[@dubbinghouse1771]

my favorite song

Great times and a very good friend of mine backing singer with Go West Katie such a great singer in her own right x

[@dheerajbw]

David Fisher Hey, is she really a friend of yours? I've had a crush on the lady since I've known GW, how is she doing now? Is she still involved someway in the music industry? Tell her she's extremely pretty. And could you tell if she's actually the backing singer in the first album, or just accompanied them to live performances, as I've read Mo Birch was the backing singer on the first album. I've been confused for long now. Thanks.

[@davidfisher667]

She is a friend and still looks the same a little older like us all but her voice is still as good today as ever and still sings .

[@dheerajbw]

@@davidfisher667 Yeah i recently became friends with her on fb, and she seems just as fine as always, good to know her voice is still great. She shifted to Italy in the later part of her career, as I came to know recently. Does she still live in Italy or has shifted back to the UK? And thanks for replying Sir.

[@dheerajbw]

@@davidfisher667 And Mr. fisher I really would have never known her name, had you not made this comment. I'd given up looking for a name for the backup vocalist a long time ago. It is just nowhere to be found, might have been there in the original CDs and LPs which I dont have. Can't thank you enough sir, may god bless you.

[@davidfisher667]

She lives in the UK just outside oxford still a lovely lady and great singer .
