LMAO, the irony is that I work at a night shift at Walmart. Despite the Walmart radio having mostly awful songs, when I first heard this, I was desperately looking for it, but needed to carefully listen to the lyrics without distractions. A few months later, after finding the song "She Drives Me Crazy", today I found the song with the lyric "Wishful Thinking." As soon as I found the song, I was SO thankful for my patience. This also gave me the opportunity to search for reaction videos for this song, to share the good news that this song SLAPS hard. I'm going to add the song to my personal MP3 Player soon.
He can still sing today. I watched a recent concert video of him singing this song.. He still has it and the audience sang along with him. It was awesome.. Place was packed..
This song, and "Boys Of Summer" by Don Henley, were my absolute go to songs to crank on my stereo as a teen when driving around in the summer in my mustang..... damn, those vibes!
@@susannetherton1933 Yeah, but the "Dad" dancing is comedic gold. Jimmy Fallon and Paul Rudd do a hilarious almost exact copy of the vid. Look it up(~_^)
Pretty woman is my moms favorite movie. She loved Richard Gere. She took me to see this in the movie theater when I was a kid. Chick flicks were so much better back then... They were watchable compared to the chick flicks nowadays..
Since you reacted to this, you gotta react to Jimmy Fallon & Paul Rudd recreation of this video. It's spot on and funny because Paul Rudd actually is singing it.
Fun fact:- Go west - One way street, was used in the Rocky 4 movie, it was playing on the robot Rocky got his son for his birthday while rocky was outside washing the car.
I've been waiting for this one Leo 😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 you're going to so enjoy & appreciate this one Leo 😉😊😎😂🤣 & I can't lie, I've been the king of wishful thinking once or twice before 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 that is until I met Miss Patti from Cali on your channel & I ain't been the king of wishful thinking for the last 6 weeks & going strong Leo, thank you for allowing us to meet & let us continue to talk with one another, you'll never know how much we appreciate it 😊😊😊😊😉😎😉😎😉😎
Thank you for all the work you're doing, so many videos, so much happiness you're putting out in the world. Have a GREAT weekend Leo! You're my favorite!
Gotta love those light poppy songs from the early 90's. I don't know about the video, seems like they just threw everything in there including the kitchen sink. It's got that feeling that things aren't so bad.
You completely caught me off guard with this reaction. Good job. You're arrive! You need to believe in yourself. I also struggle with believing in myself.
Oh wow. Brother, some of these more "eclectic" songs you are reacting to are hitting me in the nostalgia bone. I haven't thought of this song in about 30 years. And yet I remember every word. Never saw the video before, though. A lot of the 80s and 90s songs I know by heart have videos I have never seen because they just never happened to be on MTV, BET or VH1 when I was flipping through channels.
Man I just discovered your other channel! I have been watching your movie reactions for months, and now just checked this out, soooooooo good man! New subscriber!
Normally I know the song and I am like smirking 'Oh he dont even know yet'. But damn, I barely knew this banger. I was vibing out with ya! Made my day!
Leo! Omg i had forgotten about this song cos I hadn't watched 'Pretty Woman' in years but this is a banger!! This song, Kenny G - Songbird and Roxette - It Must Have Been Love were all in that classic film. Jah bless old movies and soundtracks!👏💚🎉
Aaah had some good times while this was playing on a mix tape somewhere. Broke a sweat bustin' my moves oh yeah. Probably break a hip now! Go Leo, go. x
This song will always remind me of the movie Pretty Woman when Richard Gere is driving the Lotus Esprit!
Absofuknlutely! I had the soundtrack growing up!
Exactly
Yess!! I was just wondering where the hell i know this from but I know it! Haha
“Driving.” Vivian drove it; Edward beat it like a rented mule. :)
@@ryanclark6402 he left his transmission wayyyy back there lol, when i hear the gear change screaming.
This song is a damn classic. One of those, in Wal-Mart at 2am looking for pancake mix and you hear it over the loudspeaker shits.
That was the best part of Wal-Mart being 24/7. I'd be in there 1am shopping and old school bangers you don't hear on the radio would come on.

This made me think of Fine Young Cannibals - She Drives Me Crazy because these songs were out around the time
Yes, early 90’s. With a tinge of 80’s style.
@@taoist32 JUST before the Nirvana onslaught that revolutionized the music scene - putting Alternative on top.
@@johndesalvo4467 Yep. Nirvana killed off the 80’s as well as heavy metal.
Yesss!!!❤❤❤
Damn dude, you are old as hell if you remember those songs coming out. Wait, I was born in the 70's so it's ok I guess my fellow old-timer .
The parody that Paul Rudd did to this video was genius
There are not enough up votes for this comment.
Thanks for that, just watched it, have to mention how funny Jimmy Fallon is :)
Now I gotta check it out!
It was good, so was their version of Styx too much time on my hands
Mr. Video needs to do it. It's not even a parody. It's a near shot by shot recreation!
It's like a song you blast sitting outside on a hot summer day while you drink a beer.
It's just good for the neighbourhood
Underrated song and singer. You're right Mr Video, Peter Cox can SANG 🎶🎵 Thanks for doing this one....I've been waiting patiently 😎
Agreed! Go West is amazing and Peter Cox is an incredible singer!
He can still sing today. I watched a recent concert video of him singing this song.. He still has it and the audience sang along with him. It was awesome.. Place was packed..
@@outlawgt3045 saw him a couple of years ago with Nik Kershaw and yeah - he's still smooth AF. Great show.
This song, and "Boys Of Summer" by Don Henley, were my absolute go to songs to crank on my stereo as a teen when driving around in the summer in my mustang..... damn, those vibes!
Heard this song on the radio while I was at work great call. I hope you do Steve winwood higher love. As always another great reaction
If you haven’t seen the movie “Pretty Woman” it’s a good one, this is on the soundtrack😉
I love the song, but I've always thought the video was crap. 😂
@@susannetherton1933 Yeah, but the "Dad" dancing is comedic gold. Jimmy Fallon and Paul Rudd do a hilarious almost exact copy of the vid. Look it up(~_^)
@@wheresatari668 oh yeah, that is great. Those two are favorites 😍 ❤
Pretty woman is my moms favorite movie. She loved Richard Gere. She took me to see this in the movie theater when I was a kid.
Chick flicks were so much better back then... They were watchable compared to the chick flicks nowadays..
Pretty woman. The movie men love but won't admit that they do.😂😂😂😂
A really underrated group from the 80’s . They did some superb tracks 😊 Call Me, Don’t look down & We close our eyes. All quality.
Since you reacted to this, you gotta react to Jimmy Fallon & Paul Rudd recreation of this video. It's spot on and funny because Paul Rudd actually is singing it.
😍😍👌👌
Definitely next must be: "CALL ME" and "WE CLOSE OUR EYES"😉😉
YES! Much better Songs!
Most Definitely!
Yes, those are so better.
Was never a lover of this one tbh.
I was the Queen of wishful thinking when the lead singer made eye contact with me & gave me a little wink at their concert back in the early 90’s 😁
Jimmy Fallon & Paul Rudd did a shot-for-shot remake of this video.
Hilarious!!
OMG i didn't know that existed, thank you kind stranger
I hope Leo goes and watches the Paul Rudd version as well as You Spin me Round.🤗
One word for this song, CLASSIC
I've been listening to "Break My Stride" Matthew Wilder for the last 3 and a half days. Would love to see you vibe to that one.
David and David, Welcome to the Boomtown! The Escape Club, Wild, Wild West!
I remember when this song came out, totally forgot about it till now, ty for the flashback, downloading it now.
Go West, never heard them do a sloppy performance, always tight, even 30 years later. Lots of songs worth listening to
This my favorite song of all time. Idk why, not proud of it, not ashamed either but it’s just such a banger. Keep it up brah 👏🏼👏🏼
Fun fact:- Go west - One way street, was used in the Rocky 4 movie, it was playing on the robot Rocky got his son for his birthday while rocky was outside washing the car.
I remember that song but I had no idea it was by them. Thanks!
Actually, that robot was Pauley's birthday present.....
@@leslauner5062 So it was you're right mate.
Ahhhhh one of my favorite songs! It’s another playlist goody I have👍😀
I haven't heard this one in years! Good song.🥰
I STILL love this song. 💖💖💖
Yes yes yes, more of this Era please! Nobody out here is reacting to the powerful early 90s ! Love it
most of the UK/British groups were labeled as Pop but they had that soul funky sound
Yesss. You finally get to this amazing song! One of the best and one of my favorites! 💖
'Faithful' and 'We Close Our Eyes' are excellent ones from Go West. His voice is something else!
My favorite breakup song because it's not weepy. It's a big FU to whoever hurt him! I DENY THE TEARS IN MY EYES!
Yeah, you really don't understand the song, at all.
My fav breakup song was Return of the Mac
@@robg4729 No, YOU!

😊😊😊😊😊he's right Leo, we REALLY REALLY appreciate it. ♥
@@misspattifromcali.6955 I luv ya Patti ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Pretty Woman forever! One of my fave movies ❤
OMG, forgot about this song, and yet I know every word! ❤️ (probably watched Pretty Woman too many times!) 🤣
I love when that happens. How do we remember every single lyric to most every song from the 70's-90's? Crazy!!
As I'm singing and 90s dancing to this
Man ... he can sing.
this song was from the Pretty Woman soundtrack, lol so its circa 1990/1992 and its GLORIOUS
Yeah but we heard it before that as they are British band.
@@DawnSuttonfabfour I know. this reply to my comment literally served no purpose. put it as its own comment to let everyone else know.
@@sersastark Ok then. You may be American and not know we knew. Cheers!
They came from an era where bands sounded like their records even live. They performed live a few years ago and still sound as they did yesterday!!
GO WEST " CALL ME " IS A TUUUNE!
Your 80s arm flailing dancing is on point. It gets me hyped
I've always loved this song!! Had it on vinyl back in the day.
LOVE THIS SONG!
‘Oh he done took his shirt off’ 🤣☠️🤣
Thank you for all the work you're doing, so many videos, so much happiness you're putting out in the world. Have a GREAT weekend Leo! You're my favorite!
Gotta love those light poppy songs from the early 90's. I don't know about the video, seems like they just threw everything in there including the kitchen sink. It's got that feeling that things aren't so bad.
I love the live version from the "Rewind Festival 2011" - lightens up my day every morning on my way to work :)
Nice! Thank you for doing this song bud. One of my favorites!
Well this is a blast from my past. I'd sort of forgotten about this song. I loved it then, and considering I'm singing along with it, I love it still.
I think it's time to add Pretty Woman to your movie reaction list brother.
@Mr Video
Leo, THIS IS WHY I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL BRO!
Love this song, love the diversity of your reactions
Mr Video serving you 90’s realness today!! Lol 🙌🙌
Idk where I was. I've never heard this one. And I'm not sad.
Early 90’s. I was entering college when this came out. A warning sign to my future relationships!
This song is the shit!! One of my all time favorites. I’m so glad you watched it.
If you haven't, then after your classics run you should check out Less Than Jake - The Science of Selling Yourself Short. Such a good song.
"We close our eyes" Is another fine track from Go West 😊❤
You gotta check out Go West`s- "Eye To Eye"; "We Close Our Eyes"; & "Call Me" . Seriously, nice songs!
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😎😉 I always love your couch dancing & Thumper that pops up every now & then in this reaction 😎😉🤣😂🤣😂🤣😱😁😂🤣😂🤣😎😉
Happy Saturday to my smoke buddy. Hope all is well in MrVideo land.
We Close Our Eyes
Call Me
Eye to Eye
Goodnight Girl
Go West are one of the most underrated bands ever!
Wow haven't heard this one since early 90s! Love it!!!! What a great time you would have loved it!
So good to have you dropping videos today, Mr. Video!
You completely caught me off guard with this reaction. Good job. You're arrive! You need to believe in yourself. I also struggle with believing in myself.
My friends clown on me for how hard I go to this song. Repeat for hours🤣🤣🤣
Love, love, LOVE this! Bought the 'Pretty Woman' soundtrack just for this song, and ended up getting some fabulous music. BEST break up song...EVER!
Oh wow. Brother, some of these more "eclectic" songs you are reacting to are hitting me in the nostalgia bone. I haven't thought of this song in about 30 years. And yet I remember every word.
Never saw the video before, though. A lot of the 80s and 90s songs I know by heart have videos I have never seen because they just never happened to be on MTV, BET or VH1 when I was flipping through channels.
i used to love this song and pretty woman...pop music at its finest. glad you’re feeling this song!
your song selection is on point! All the classics!
A definite banger man! One of my top 20 90s songs in my book!
Good to hear this song again!! Even better seeing you hear if for the first time! :)
Have a song for you "Here I Go Again" by Whitesnake. The pretty girl in the video passed away today-Tawny Kitaen.
Now you GOTTA do "We Close Our Eyes" By Go West TRUST ME!!! THAT one is off the damn chain!!
Mr Video with the classics!!! I love this song so much!!!!!
One of the funnest 90s tunes ever
IT FINALLY HAPPENED THIS IS MY GUILTIEST GUILTY PLEASURE SONG YOU'RE THE BEST PLEASE KEEP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING
OH MY GOD YES I'M SO HYPE TO WATCH THIS. I FUCKING LOCE THIS SONG AND HAVE SINCE I FIRST HEARD IT AS A KID
Man I just discovered your other channel! I have been watching your movie reactions for months, and now just checked this out, soooooooo good man! New subscriber!
Another good one from Go West is, "Faithful". Great memories.
The 80's were the Bomb! Pure and Simple!
"Faithful" is another cool jam from these guys!
Great song. Part of the reason that I had the Pretty Woman soundtrack in my cassette collection.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 & yet, another damn good reaction Leo 😱😱😱😱😂🤣😁😁😁
Normally I know the song and I am like smirking 'Oh he dont even know yet'. But damn, I barely knew this banger. I was vibing out with ya! Made my day!
More Go West:
We Close Our Eyes
Still In Love
Eye To Eye
You won't be sorry.
Who knew wishful thinking could be so positively upbeat🎶
XO❤️
Love the song, that is a crazy video. Nice reaction brother
An all-time favorite! Definitely think you should add some Londonbeat to your list - "I've Been Thinking About You" is fantastic.
Such a great track man. You're right. We've all been there.
Leo! Omg i had forgotten about this song cos I hadn't watched 'Pretty Woman' in years but this is a banger!! This song, Kenny G - Songbird and Roxette - It Must Have Been Love were all in that classic film. Jah bless old movies and soundtracks!👏💚🎉
Thanks so kuch nai for doing this! I had forgotten, kinda, hahaha, I loved this!
They got ya hooked & ain't said a word YET 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😉😎
Oh man, this song played on the radio almost every night when I worked 3rd shift in the local grocery store lol. Good times there, not going to lie.
Aaah had some good times while this was playing on a mix tape somewhere. Broke a sweat bustin' my moves oh yeah. Probably break a hip now! Go Leo, go. x
I just love this song
I really liked the lyrics and the beat of this song. ❤️❤️❤️
GO WEST- CALL ME
THAT JOINT IS FIREEE TOO 🔥
i heard on Gold 905 and Class 95 (from Singapore) occasionally because 'King of Wishful Thinking' was a Go West's biggest hit likely.
Yes sir this is a banger for sure helped me get over some shit no doubt. Could you do we close our eyes
One of my faves! Video has everything in it - including the kitchen sink. They're dropped at the end!
Please do Aretha Franklin natural woman live at the Kennedy center. Your goosebumps will get goosebumps
Always makes me dance
Haven't heard this song in a minute.. Good song
that last scene where the sinks were falling down, was a reference to the "I'm not sinking" part of the song.
I knew that you would appreciate & enjoy this one Leo 😂🤣😂🤣😉😎
