Pet Shop Boys - Go West

[DerTrollMensch]

@elmstreet77 no, here on the west coast.. china is east of us. A lot quicker to fly west over the pacific to china as opposed to flying east over the Atlantic AND over Europe AND over the middle east to get there. China is only east of the British Empire (East from london through europe, through the middle east).. my friend, that's how it got called the Far East. Dunno if you noticed or not, but the planet you're on? Ya, Its round. Dumbass.

[22latino]

Go West, to the Galapagos Islands :)))

[martianitos]

EXCELENTE VIDEO CHIDOOOOO!!!!!

[starwarsagent]

Go west to china...that's what it means..

[elmstreet777]

@starwarsagent you know china is to the east... right? lmao dumbass

[cockycaucasian]

I like the use of Icons as propaganda of course that is their purpose. I never tire of listening to PSB!

[lilsassystar7988]

i used to dance to this on dance dance revolution, brings back memories

[slickrichie]

what it is, is telling people to go west cause it is a better life there......well people got the message and now they are flooding england up taking benifits and doing nothing for it

[HelmutVillam]

Does this song refer to the collapse of the Soviet Union, the American manifest destiny or the utopia of the gay movement in San Francisco?

[CountOrlock]

@HelmutVillam Mmmmm... both.

[gayrotherham]

When the village people sang this song they were talking about Canal street, Manchester, England, And them promoting the gay village in the 80s for gays who didnt know about it. Their is alot of gay slang in the song

[Ezdduf4kuZ]

This song is simply telling it like it is. I live about as far west as you can go. Vancouver Canada... the air is fresh and clean...the open air is in the mountains however...the skies are blue over the prairies only...as far as the life is peaceful there, again they must be referring to the mountains or far north cause around these parts it's a rush hour twice a day six days a week , Just like London England, only thing is we get a harsher winter here. This video is too much/luv it & thx!

[NorthernShooter]

Gay, Very Gay, Mega Gay, Super Gay, Ultra Gay, The Gayest thing ever !!!

In short: No, it isn't banned in the US.

[69nintendo69]

[Lamnont]

What mean you that? I'm watching right now!

[paddy25c]

no i mean when it was first released, just something i heard , not sure if its true

[furyianfyre]

Yes, it was...we can't have a Brittish pop-phenom promoting Russia, now can we? It wasn't circulated when it came out.

[luis2416]

chidicimo

[furryisthenewedgy]

Are we not Men? We are DEVO!

[slitor]

Im sorry, but the majestic Russian Choir just does it for me.

[835305]

GAY

[GreenQuizHD]

Folks, this song is a GAY hymn. Go west (California), life is peaceful there... Get it? See wikipedia:

"Go West" is generally understood as an expression of the 1970s sentiment of San Francisco as a utopia for the Gay Liberation movement.

[sigmaree]

very true.

fact 1: 3:29: the gays come from NewYork / east coast, the statue of liberty is next to their town

fact 2: the surfboards and surfers that r shown on the other side

this is so 9999% gay.

[xox0808]

Oh yeah? Something wrong about gay? This song wouldn't be better "hetero"

[JakePomar]

haha no shit...

[oscccar1]

per shop boys is commis....

[Tsuppee]

And u can see 2:28 Soviet Union's sign

[MissLiz1991]

I think it's about the cold war and on the western side of the Berlin wall;) I'm not sure, that's my first conclusion of this song/vid....

[Tsuppee]

Lol, this is national anthem of Soviet Union and Russia

[MissLiz1991]

LOL , really?:p

[Tsuppee]

Lol yeah

[komijeuzonik]

what are you fucking idiots? the whole song is about ussr and usa, ofcourse there is ussr sign

[Tsuppee]

fuck you noob, can you fucking blind whore see that missliz1991 thought its about cold war and western side of berlin wall so I told that ussr thing motherfucker. suck my dick, stupid shit

[komijeuzonik]

mrs bre!!!!

[zoscar]

jajaja! It's not the national anthem of Soviet Union!

[sigmaree]

dont laugh. you would turn gay too, if u would know how their women look like.

[comprehentionoflife]

[Hakatu2]

[LJIsobel95]

pet shop boys rock xxxxxxxxxxx <3

[AnnabelLovesLeafeon]

Hello, sister. I agree and I want Go West and West End Girls on my iPod.

They have a bit of a thing for the West, don't they? Okay, see you later.

P.S. To other YouTube users - if you are wondering why I called this person sister it's because we're siblings. 'Kay?

[jackloobyloo]

at the beggining it looks like something for the american lottery!

[jawzmarkboyz]

[necrowizard85]

[OliviaRose2009]

Pet Shop Boys

[Raspets]

[feanor22]

amazing, pure nostalgy, it`s amazing how this song NEVER gets old....

aaaahhh the classics ^^

[futuropresente]

esa canción en la parte del inicio la tocan como empezando el programa Fox Sports Radio del Plata y luego el canto de la hinchada

[diortour]

5 stars!

[palazhniakas]

Comunism shall prevail!!! ;DDD

[ewanker101]

Oooh-arrrrr we are Exeter!

Oooh-arrrrr we are Exeter!

Oooh-arrrrr we are Exeter!

Oooh-arrrrr we are Exeter!

[razberryGem]

Such an uplifting song "its Great"

[popitude]

Best Song Ever!!

[kenbubub]

West is not a destinations. It is more like ideas and beliefs.

[ComradeGeneralK]

A great explanation! Could not have said it better myself.

[usiol]

ach this comunists ;d

[PictoMotions]

LOL such a catcy song

[stavila25]

very nice

[HungarianArcher]

nice hat :)

[JoshCCFC09]

The question is, wheres west? West could be anywhere.

[PictoMotions]

it means go west and you micro wave

[TheGanondorf666]

Amazing song :L

[1234q1234q]

It is sad and funny to see the evolution of an idea that mans worth is determined by his needs and sufferings. A country with an objective morality may be evil. But, a subjective system can only be worse; in its proclamation that men of ability are slaves by birth.

[sermenka]

It´s a great song

[Suppersoniic]

what is this song about?... i like it but, the video is kinnda creepy

[BZMama65]

This is remake of a song originally done by the Village People. To me, it means west to San Francisco where gays can live openly....at least til Prop 8.

[FamFnL]

what is this song about?? I LOVE it but have no idea what he's singing about.

Is it about manifest destiny??

[pirujadelflow]

ke buen tema

[TheLewistonKid]

After all these years I have just realised this song is about communist Russia! WTF!!

[sigmaree]

WRONG. look at the clip again: dozens of young men ouly in muscle-shirts, no females at all, trekky-style suits, phallic skyscrapers, PET SHOP BOYS ?! this song is clearly about homosexuals and fags.

[TheLewistonKid]

Luck mate, the Russians ARE fags!

[sigmaree]

Yeah. Just look at their women: hardly distinguishable from men. Anyone who d see those creatures would become gay too. Poor russians.

[mydoom1988]

for sure you are poor american, who havent seen any russian girls. you have no idea what you are talking about. just negative side

[sigmaree]

of course there r bbeutiful russian girls. know what: THEY MIGRATE TO AMERICA and become exelent hardcore p0rn actresses!!! the lardassed grizzly bears remain in your country.

God bless the USA !!!

[sigmaree]

thanks to god, ur right :)

[ComradeGeneralK]

It's just people speaking out of their asses, not all Americans are like that.

[colummcclelland90]

god bless them fatty yanks ideed

[comprehentionoflife]

These muscle dudes are supposed to be the people from the east.. they would feel offended if they had been shown as little weaklings wouldn't they? and then they wouldnt go east xD

[sigmaree]

and thats why they run around in muscle-shirts and look like the dream of any gay-fag? lol. this is so 110% about fags and migration to san fransisco's gay community.

[comprehentionoflife]

That's one aspect... how would you explain the sign of the soviet union and the pictures of those soviet "celebrities"? it's obvious this was propaganda from the cold war..

[69nintendo69]

it came out when the cold war ended you buffoon....

[furyianfyre]

I love that you used "buffoon"!!!

[aricaleeddorr]

koolest song ever i relly liked this song alot hope u keep it on youtube!!! 4 ever and i listened 2 it all year!!! i dont know about u this song it awesome!

[ligabue2007]

[stillwaterguy04]
