"We Close Our Eyes"-Oingo Boingo live video from '90 Halloween

[AngieEnz84]

Swear to god, I literally got tingles and flutters in my stomach during that performance. Christ, Danny's got such a gorgeous voice.

That was really beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[isocrates12345]

I was at this concert.@captainnodule I TOTALLY agree....

[captainnodule]

Like so many, Boingo was a large part of my life for many years....unless you were there, unless it was part of your history - you won't understand just what it was and just what you missed.... Danny, we miss you!

Danny and the boys got me though high school in the 80's. Never missed a concert in SD, Irvine meadows, Delmar, Mexico (mexfest), etc.. Awesome shows. Danny has amazing range in his voice and is an even better music composer. It was sad to see them call it quits. Miss the crew

[worldofkris]

uggg i hate live performances. such a disappointment.

[1highwayranger]

Boingo used to come to San Diego twice a year! So many great times! Boingo forever!

[tonih7138]

ElfMan Strut!

[drex23100]

Danny Elfman's name really suits him.He actually looks like an elf. A weird insane elf.

[Criszzilla]

@drex23100

Lol.

[pauloscapini]

E o mundo mudou! (...) e algo de muito bom se perdeu. Artistas tão bons como os dessa época jamais voltarão e nos resta somente a nostalgia dos anos mais modernos da música mundial. QUE SAUDADE!!

[weeattrix4breakfast]

love this stuff like me? go to johnny vatos hernandez' facebook page to hear about upcoming shows and other fan info. Bartek, Avila, Phipps and others from the original lineup! i don't work for them (but i'd like to). Johnny Vatos Hernandez' Dead Man's Party on Facebook. check it out...

[A10thunderbolt]

I saw Boingo every chance I had from about 1980 on. By far, the best live performance band I ever saw.

[CymruCodex]

This is one of my favorite songs of all times

[fabyjona]

I never got to go to any Boingo concerts because I was too young, but I love their music. I've heard of those legendary halloween concerts, I wish I would 've been there!!

[AnalieSkywind]

@fabyjona I know, me too, man.

[gauchatche]

Amo essa música, clássica dos anos 80!

[lasquid]

I was there. Yeah!  Best halloween show ever!

[wopbutt]

I Attended their concerts every year for 17 years...including the US Festival. These were truly some of the best times of my life. No one else performed live as well as they did. Anyone else out there remember the Popeblessing the fans, the Suma wrestlers, and the Elfman strut?

[MWhiteTX]

Had the great opportunity to tour with them for a lighting company (Vari*Lite), as a fan at a yound age and lip syncing all the songs, getting the opportunity to tour with them - dream come true. Music is timeless and I will always be a fan

[701Charles]

Danny Elfman ROCKS, Thanks for putting this on Youtube

[jennadyann]

love this song...too awesome!!! Wish the world would turn around once more and we can see them live again....

[Juco1216]

Viva Boingo! I'd give anything to see them again. They are the best!

[trayne1705]

I grew up on Danny and what I wouldn't give to see them one more time!! I wish they would do a reunion tour, I would go wherever they would play it. I miss Oingo Boingo. Those halloween concerts. They were the best live band! I can hear just a few notes of their songs and it takes me back to the 80's. Miss you Danny!!!

[tynist]

Muito bom.

[paythetoll]

lol I was at this concert. DIA DE LOS MUERTOS!!!

Damn Im old lol

[buckskinreiner]

O my gosh! What I wouldn't pay to go to another one!! You stood up all nght long and moved and bounced and sang with them.....there will never be anything like the Elfman again. Musical genius...in his own lifetime

[coastaltam]

I feel so lucky to have grown up in the '80s in soCal. Every year, it was an unspoken tradition to attend the Halloween concerts. Man, I miss these guys.

[GoFinland]

Dito! I was born in 81 and was lucky enough to experience these guys as my first concert when I was 9. Thanks big brother for taking me!!!!

[jesfrodrigues]

Que saudades !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rolandgladden]

One the great bands-awesome song:)

[buckskinreiner]

There will never be anyone like them! Those So Calif concerts at Halloween were the best!! You could never stop bouncing....and everyone was so damn happy!!!! The Elfman is pure talent.

[MusicalLover6]

Danny is so precious. This is one of those cute songs that I just love. <3

[crazyfish1us]

I saw them in concert 7 times. The best one was at Universal Studios at the Psycho Masion on Halloween. I miss this group. They gave an awesome concert. Those who have never seen them live, missed out.

[saytheremeg]

This was the first Oingo Boingo song I ever heard, and even though a lot of people don't think it was as good as their earlier stuff, it was enough to get me hooked for life.

Also, can I just say I LOVE Danny's hands?

[xXSunshineKatXx]

I can't help but giggle at the fact that Danny holds the mic so close when he sings. It looks like he's going to eat it ;P

[A10thunderbolt]

Thank you so much for sharing this!!!!

[jesfrodrigues]

Que saudades !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sitebaka]

muitooooooooooooooooooo bommmmmmm

[SebastianAxlRose]

Perfection!

[ponfarr69]

His voice is pretty and he is pretty, in a scary way.

[Babyhowdy233]

I always thought that Boingo's Halloween shows at Irvine Meadows were the BEST the band gave, even though it was usually VERY cold there by that time of the year. I'm DELIGHTED these shows are available to see again after all these years!!!

[Princesslildee]

Haha "What a burn!"
