Песня “Go West“ была написана группой “Village People“ в 1979 году. В 1993 году группа “Pet Shop Boys“ перепела её на новый лад для своего нового альбома «Very».
Начальная тема песни в исполнении PSB очень сильно напоминает Гимн СССР, да и сам стиль стал более гимновым и маршевым, достаточно сильно отдавая “советским духом“. Как потом пояснили Нейл и Крис, они обнаружили сходство с гимном только после записи.
Что интересно, при исполнении этой песни на московском концерте Live 8 в 2005 году, группа отказалась от инструментального вступления, вызывающего наиболее сильные ассоциации с гимном.
The song “Go West“ was written by the Village People in 1979. In 1993, the group “Pet Shop Boys“ covered it in a new way for their new album “Very“.
The opening theme of the song performed by PSB very much resembles the Anthem of the USSR, and the style itself has become more anthemic and marching, giving quite a strong “Soviet spirit“. As Neil and Chris later explained, they discovered the similarity to the anthem only after recording.
Interestingly, when performing this song at the Moscow Live 8 concert in 2005, the band abandoned the instrumental intro that evokes the strongest associations with the anthem.
Текст / Liryc:
Come on, come on, come on, come on
(Together) We will go our way
(Together) We will leave someday
(Together) Your hand in my hands
(Together) We will make our plans
(Together) We will fly so high
(Together) Tell all our friends goodbye
(Together) We will start life new
(Together) This is what we’ll do
(Go West) Life is peaceful there
(Go West) In the open air
(Go West) Where the skies are blue
(Go West) This is what we’re gonna do
(Go West, this is what we’re gonna do, Go West)
(Together) We will love the beach
(Together) We will learn and teach
(Together) Change our pace of life
(Together) We will work and strive
(I love you) I know you love me
(I want you) How could I disagree?
(So that’s why) I make no protest
(When you say) You will do the rest
(Go West) Life is peaceful there
(Go West) In the open air
(Go West) Baby you and me
(Go West) This is our destiny (Aah)
(Go West) Sun in wintertime
(Go West) We will do just fine
(Go West) Where the skies are blue
(Go West) this is what we’re gonna do
There where the air is free
We’ll be (We’ll be) what we want to be (Aah aah aah aah)
Now if we make a stand (Aah)
We’ll find (We’ll find) our promised land (Aah)
(I know that) There are many ways
(To live there) In the sun or shade
(Together) We will find a place
(To settle) Where there’s so much space
(Without rush) And the pace back east
(The hustling) Rustling just to feed
(I know I’m) Ready to leave too
(So that’s what) We are gonna do
(What we’re gonna do is
Go West) Life is peaceful there
(Go West) There in the open air
(Go West) Where the skies are blue
(Go West) This is what we’re gonna do
(Life is peaceful there)
Go West (In the open air)
Go West (Baby, you and me)
Go West (This is our destiny)
Come on, come on, come on, come on
(Go West) Sun in wintertime
(Go West) We will feel just fine
(Go West) Where the skies are blue
(Go West) This is what we’re gonna do
(Come on, come on, come on)
(Go West)
(Go West)
(Go, ooh, go, yeah)
(Go West)
(Go, ooh, go, yeah)
(Go West)
(Go, ooh, go, yeah)
(Go West)
(Go, ooh, go, yeah)
(Gimme a feelin’)
(Gimme a feelin’)
(Go West)
(Gimme a feelin’)
(Gimme a feelin’)
(Go West)
(Gimme a feelin’)
(Gimme a feelin’)
