We Close Our Eyes - Oingo Boingo (Lyrics)

[@alexiscarrington-colby733]

IM 50 AND THIS IS STILL AND FOREVER RELEVANT!

[@PoetryMyLove]

I love this song so much, it's always helped me through rough times, but also been there for good. When friends aren't there for me, this song is.

[@ソトヤママリアテレサ]

been there, done that and came out stinking like roses. i know how it feels. are you alright? peace.☮️🎶✨-j in southern Japan from my wife's KZbin with her permission of course, cos good guys always ask permission before using another's property. ☮️🎶✨

[@1984AP]

Awesome! One of my fist cassettes. Oingo Boingo - Boingo from 1987. Still sounds great! One of the best songs they ever did. I remember closing my eyes listening to this in the car as a kid for a few seconds everythime the line came on. Songs today will NEVER compare to the 80s. NEVER!

[@ronaldoamorim7052]

Mais uma excelente música dos anos 80... me fez voltar no tempo!

[@gustavo_3023]

Ronaldo Amorim realmente amigo, compartilho da sua opinião mesmo eu tendo apenas 15 anos rssrsrsrsrs, música boa demais

[@lisalorrainetaylor4883]

The greatest song by Oingo Boingo, followed by Out of Control! I could listen to Danny Elfman singing this song forever and 4 days, and it would STILL hit the same!🥹❤️❤️❤️

[@Highland804]

This is one of my favorites, too. Love Danny's voice in this one.

[@Highland804]

Yes. Yes, it is. :) Met him twice last year.

[@skaboy512]

Lucky! he has been my biggest hero in my life i have always wanted to talk to him since I was 9 i am 43 now lol highland804

[@Highland804]

ian steiner I met him again twice last year at the Hollywood Bowl.

[@rosabatista9785]

Linda d+++++essa música!!!!amo muito essa banda!!!!

[@vikkideissler3648]

God is me, I am God. we close our ourselves off and grow, but an easier way LOVE

[@robinandrew1223]

Danny's harmonies are beautiful although my favorite version of "We Close Our Eyes' is from the Farewell Tour. It's got more of a 90's kick plus it's clean, super clean LIVE!! Still LOVE EVERYTHING YOU DO , DANNY!! I look death in the mirror everyday & wonder is today the day, so as much as he's smiling back, telling me to just take my time It's a damn good thing I heard "Out of Control" FIRST - WHEW!!

[@Milliardo5]

Same here--I love that version of this song from their Farewell Tour. Lovely song really, brings back memories of the 80s and early 90s.

[@robinandrew1223]

Thank you so much :X

Prob my fav song from oingo, been listening to this song Since the 80s , waiting to be resurrected by some new show And have a new generation enjoy it.

[@IshikawaGoemon]

It played on the series finale in Psych. It was also covered by Ninja Sex Party.

[@Higsurf]

thanks for doing this..I was fortunate to see them in concert twice...simply one of the greatest bands ever

[@240ups]

I want to thank you for putting this song in Lyric form. I have loved this song for years and I now have simply posedt your version to friends on Facebook when they express frustration in relationships or political expression. ......subsiquently afterwards they hate my guts! ....No... I'm just kidding, I love this song for its message to relax and step back.... and I appreciate your effort for us to read and hear it at the same time....thanks!

[@elchikitotepido]

This song is so amazing that if it where to be release today it would still go top10!!!

[@seafoam107]

One of the best songs of all times!

[@elchikitotepido]

@1984AP I totally agree my friend the 80's where a great time for one to grow-up however the 80's are not gone the are still here my friend!!! =)

[@paxazzari]

This song will always remind me of a beautiful young woman whom I met back when I was a radio dj. This was her favorite request.

[@glenng1960]

Such a great song, love Boingo saw them at Universal, Irvine Meadows cant remember how many times. Great job!! By the way if you want to relive Boingo go see the coverband Dead Mans Party they are spot on. They play all the time in SoCal.

[@jackhammer0078]

Good taste in music brought me here.

[@Pixygon]

I love that movie!

[@gdoumerc1984]

Brings back great college memories - thanks.

[@Legionsadvocate]

First time I've heard this song, and I think it's awesome. Thanks for uploading this. :)

[@coindude69]

WOW...one of my all time favorite songs!!! Classic!!

[@elizabetedeoliveira7947]

Uau, eu curti muito essa banda e principalmente essa música, pois eu estava no auge da minha juventude, foi muito bom! Obrigada.

[@Highland804]

Love love love Danny. Love love love his voice. Love love love Oingo Boingo. And yes, I did see them live. Don't hate. ;)

[@YouheardaboutPluto]

They played this song at the very end of "Psych" last episode and I really liked it ( it fit the episode really well too).

[@kirasalsa9709]

I finally saw the final episode (today, actually) hearing this song at the end made me super happy.

[@ehelibuff73]

I love that song. Thank you!

[@aloetom]

Thanks for taking the time to put this up for us !

[@wstr1123]

Thank you! This is the best quality of all those for this song on KZbin!

[@popularAPunk19]

if i can go back to the 80's i am going to see them and other fave 80 bands i never grew up with sadly a 90's kid i had a great year of music but 80s was a party never ended with tragic ends

[@Craigtcs]

This reminds me of my younger years when life was so much easier and exciting. Now it's nothing but work and getting older :(

[@sfflyer123]

Exactly. 100% spot on.

[@alexiscarrington-colby733]

SOONER OR LATER IT HAPPENS TO US ALL!

[@Jumbosock]

The change is by choice. Let’s all go back to the simpler and happier times. I’ve already sold most things and started to make the change back.

[@fasj400]

Lovin years, "we close our eyes and dream and another year has come and gone..."It made me cry! I was a teen on that time!

[@franciscojaviertorresmonte608]

excelente!!! obviamente la version original es mas que buena, y esta version no se queda atras

[@LonelyAssassin96]

I love this song so much! Now, if only oingo boingo had made a music video of it. Oh, well. I'm already on it. Hope everyone decides to check it out. Although, I'll be singing it instead of Danny Elfman. Hard to beleive a 14-year-old would be listening to this stuff, but I love the older songs. so much better than *shudder* modern music.*shudder (again)* But, seriously, Thanks!

[@ApollusBrutusSeverillus]

[@SyrDoN]

yea this will be my next visualization I make. I remember cranking this full blast in my car driving home from work at the mall when I was a teenager.

[@kristinXisXamazing]

[@garymazin158]

1st heard this on the BtVS SOUNDTRACK, but I didn’t know it was a 1987 Song by OINGO BOINGO. Also, I believe SUSSANAH HOFFS of THE BANGLES did a version.

[@Uniongamers]

One of the best!!!

[@elchikitotepido]

ASI ES AMIGO EL GRUPO DE LOS 80's Y SI NO UNO DE LOS MAS REPRESENTATIVOS =)

[@Lil_tapatio626]

[@serrico0869]

I remember being heartbroken over a girl I dated for several years as she dumped me for another, this song made me think of a future woman(s) and all will be well. It did.

[@oliviafontenot4983]

[@michaelleitera4689]

Although I previously heard this song, I still think NSP did it better

[@werderwayne1]

It amazes me that NO ONE makes this song in Karaoke format! One can get "We Close our Eyes" by Go West. WHO?!?!?!?

[@SabrinaStronger]

any 2022 listeners out there ??

[@jeffjohnson8624]

i don't think my most recent comment is on here. yup, my KZbin was in fact Deepfaked. i hope Google can get control of their KZbin back.

[@angelinarobert622]

"i saw death in the face last night. l saw him in a mirror. " Does Danny Elfman suffer from schizophrenia. I mean there's also Solfeggio Schizophrana. and other references to halucinations in his lyrics. 🤔 Hmmm…
