    Hi all welcome back to another video Dereck Reacts back at it again! This time around we take a look at another first time reaction made possible via PATREON wth GO WEST and their song " We Close Our Eye." My handy man Peter Cox brings out his rugged side in this video, and lores me in with great sound and vocals. This 1985' song has all the bells and whistles of a great 80s hit. See my react now!

    Peter Cox has one of the best voices ever recorded. I wish more people knew and appreciated him. Go West was one of my favorite 80's bands, right there with Depeche Mode and Pet Shop Boys. The 12" remixes of their songs are incredible, and I have most of them. For further listening: the fantastic Don't Look Down, Eye to Eye, Call Me, The King of Wishful Thinking, and I Want to Hear It From You. Go West are superb!!!

  • @theKarstenR

    Yass, I love this one. That hook just is a classic.
    And the singer's voice is just amazing. They actually had a number of really good songs.

    Go West are still going strong, 36 years after this was released. Peter has an amazing voice and he's a really nice guy, I've met him lots of times. Saw them a few weeks ago

  • @alancooper6443
    @alancooper6443 3 роки тому +15

    This Eighties gem flew under the radar back when it first came out. Their big hit was King Of Wishful Thinking from the Pretty Woman movie and soundtrack

    • @mnomadvfx

      Ironically I'd heard this dozens to hundreds of times before I ever heard King Of Wishful Thinking 😅
      Long live the Pipe Wrench kings!

    Once heard - never forgotten! Thanks Dereck. They did good… 6 or 7 big hits UK and a couple US and still doing the business on the live circuit now.👍

    Peter Cox is the lead singer here. Dude's voice is great. He had a solo career too, with a song called "Ain't Gonna Cry Again" really standing out and showing his vocal talent.
    They also had a song on the movie Pretty Woman soundtrack called "King of Wishful Thinking".

    According to go west the video was made more difficult to be made. Because he was either greased down heavily to make it look like he was sweating. Good song though I remember it well and I'm 60.

  • @paulmason6474
    @paulmason6474 3 роки тому +6

    Feel so old remember it first time around. Think you should do lots of 80’s songs. Keep well, keep hold of your bananas!! ( if you need any help I have safe hands).

  • @NoCanDu
    @NoCanDu 2 роки тому +2

    I loved them! Still do. They were bigger in the UK than the US (unfortunately for me,) but I used to track down all of their import 12” singles. “King of Wishful Thinking” would later be a huge hit here.

  • @mikekaraoke
    @mikekaraoke 3 роки тому +3

    Check out Call me next, and the vieo to that one has def aged well-surly you will agree on that one!
    So they had a minor hit in US with this one-but they did have other hit singles ones that were hits in the US-shame they had no hit albums there though but did in other countries!

    Great video, thanks! The music video was directed by Godley & Creme, formerly of 10CC, who were big names at the time. It was Go West's first single, and therefore first video, so they didn't have an image at this point. Godley & Creme dressed them both up in lots of different outfits and shot test footage, and it was the "sweaty vest" look that the record company staff liked best! Go West never did anything as good as this again, but Peter Cox is a fantastic vocalist...

    Living in a Box - Living in a Box, Godley & Creme - Cry, Fiction Factory - Feels Like Heaven, Mental As Anything - Live It Up, Cock Robin - The Promise You Made, Camouflage - The Great Commandment, WAX - Bridge to Your Heart, Real Life - Send Me An Angel, Black - Wonderful Life, China Crisis - Wishful Thinking, Re-Flex - The Politics of Dancing, Sly Fox - Let's Go All the Way, Freur - Doot Doot, Hollywood Beyond - What's The Colour of Money? and so many more to explore.

    No it was not the same guy. I saw them live in '85. Unfortunately they came and went very quickly. You should try reacting to "Call Me".

    @slimlouis6441 3 роки тому +1

    I liked this in my teens but now… no. It sounds like a pretend pop song for a band in a movie about pop stars forced to do things that are not their true art or vision lol.

  • @davidewin6833
    @davidewin6833 3 роки тому

    If you liked that one then try Don't Look Down (The Sequel) version which I think is better than the album version: ua-cam.com/video/EdUaZfdwtcM/v-deo.html
