Go West 🎶
There's way more to this song than meets the eye. What was just a fun song in the 80s is highly political. Let's break it down;
Today everywhere we turn there’s propaganda in everything. Music, Movies, Documentaries that are supposed to be neutral, just documenting facts, the “News” is all very calculated. Nothing is coincidental.
In 1978 the Village People wrote a song called Go West. Back then there was no internet. It was just a fun song. Everyone knew the Village People were queer but nobody cared. It was simply a fun song. That’s the way it should be.
I thought originally, the Village people just wanted a song telling gay people to move to San Francisco where all the queers go.
Then the Pet Shop Boys covered it in 1994, Still Russian, as you will see below. Later in 2009 however the PetShop Boys made their “Official Video” of the song with all the communist propaganda. It seems more like a call for the commies to invade the west.
But the original tune, is so close to the Russian National Anthem, which is beautiful. This song is obviously taken from it. Why would the Village people care about Russians in 1978?
Please watch this version first posted by Senex Petrovic. This version does a great job of breaking down the Pet Shop Boys Official Version of the song (cut in 2009) It makes the comparison between the Russian National Anthem and “Go West” song. Then come back to me after you watch this…
Back? ok did that make sense?

This is Senex Petrovic’s explantion;
Mocking the Russian Anthem ~ NATO Planned Ukraine since 70's: Russian Anthem VS Go West Village People - Pet Shop Boys
Village People released this hit since 1978, by then there were already plans for Ukraine, as a gateway to dismember Russia, Ukraine is mentioned since before WWII, after WWII it was mentioned as a gateway to hit Russia, people like Henry Kissinger spoke against a conflict in Ukraine that would extend a conflict to Europe, by the time Putin decided this 'Special Operation' in Ukraine, there were already concrete NATO plans, including BioLabs with Russian and Slavic genetic samples in general.
Russia captured the plans in NATO laptops, writings and Drones ready for the deployment of bioweapons, plans that were cut short when Russia took the initiative.
We are on the brink of World War III and everything seems perfectly planned, the energy war, the attack on supply chains, fires in food plants, port closures blamed on the plandemics, etc. and now 'Putin's Inflation'.
Go West (1978), first by Village People, then by Pet Shop Boys (1993), attempted to mock and did mock of the Russian National Anthem, this every Russian knows, because of the resemblance of the song to their National Anthem, usually a most 'sacred' symbol for any nationalist, however worldwide only a few realize that it is an operative, a crude attempt to mock Russian Nationalism, their fervour for the homeland and the civic values that endure in Russia.
A kind of MKULTRA for the Masses was applied as an operative in the song, which Pet Shop Boys took it upon themselves to revive, just in anticipation of George H. W. Bush's plans, who at the time was already talking about a "New World Order" to revive the Hegemony of the Dollar as a global currency and the NWO that we already know all too well.
The song went viral, as planned, so much so that it carries the stigma of a Gay anthem just like other songs (i.e. 'I will survive'). Attacking in the Russian Anthem directly, something Putin himself has abhorred, which is Gender preference, the LGBT Agenda in particular.
Go West was a precursor to Nato's war propaganda, making viral the loss of values, Village People which started as a mockery went viral and eventually lost the meaning for which it was intended. Village People is a gay flag, it is a flag of pagan worship, the mockery of nationalist values, the mockery of race and they turned it into a gay symbol.
In the Pet Shop Boys video they actually use the Ukrainian colours and flag, "Go West" they shout as soldiers dressed in white (death for the fatherland) climbing stairs to the sky while two guardians of the Statues of Liberty are dressed in blood, the guardians of freedom and free peoples?
"Go West" shouts the song, inviting the Eastern, "Nationalist" Russians to lose their roots going to the West, to Europe, to America, while in the West the cowboys, the gays invite to a land where "We will leave someday", "Life is peaceful there", as in Russia the LGBT flag is not accepted, "Sun in wintertime" unlike the Russian Cold,
However, in one way or another, the Pet Shop Boys version also invites that nostalgia for the times of Socialism, indirectly arouses nationalistic feelings and thus loses the sense of what it was intended for, specially for those ex sovietic countries.
The success of Go West was resounding and worldwide, although it calls to go to the West, the same video (Pet Shop Boys) presents nostalgic images of Russia, which as a mere tourist destination anyone would like to visit.
This kind of MKULTRA operations have been done before, every event and military movement has a war propaganda behind it, we saw it with the fall of the Berlin Wall and "Scorpions - Wind Of Change" which talks about times of change while talking about Moscow, it had a world tour and massive concerts organized by NATO in the background. Which celebrated the "liberation" of the then socialist Germany from Russia, which eventually with Russia's withdrawal turned it into what we see today, a puppet of the USA.
We saw the same with the invasion of Syria, concerts sponsored by NGOs, concerts against Cuba, Venezuela, now Ukraine, operatives paid for by American taxes, which indirectly promote the wishes of Nato and demonize and cancel out its detractors.
What next? more wars will come, more operatives will come and then you will be awake to look for the signs, look for the sponsors, look at the organizers, find the NGOs involved and find the source of the plan, which is usually that "Deep State" full of war profiteering sewer rats, merchants of death and destruction who feed on plunder.
In the words of GEORGE S0R0S "They are building their own empire with the pieces they are leaving behind" (the Soviet Union).

I think I found your rabbit hole.
These releases with the Ukrainian colours appeared on YouTube 13 and 7 years ago respectively.
A 1994 video shows pet shop boys on stage using the Russian theme but not the Ukrainian colours.
13 years ago puts us at 2009.
So I put you at 98% right.
I don't think the pet shop boys did this but rather someone else did it 13 years ago as a form of predictive programming for what they either saw as coming or what they hoped would come.
Either way the choice of the Ukrainian colours clearly is some form of predictive programming where an entire generation is asked to believe and expected to believe that this is the original pet shop boys video when it's actually not.
But it is a real video and it was posted at least 13 years ago and again that's 2009.
Anybody that types in 2009 plus Ukraine will learn quite a bit about what was going on in that year around Russia and the Ukraine.
I think it was predictive programming because the plan to have Ukraine part of Europe has been in place for a very long time.
And that should disturb people.
————————-
Myself I see a definite hit against Russia with the mockery of their National Anthem and the fact that Russia hates gays but there was more to it than that as we can see with the “Official Video” and Ukrainian influence.
The song says “there’s an openness and a peacefulness (in the west) open free air, this is our destiny, which is lovely but the images tell a different story of invasion and bloodshed of the west led by Ukraine.
If you read this book that I’ve been pushing is practically every post, you will see the connection between Marxism, Leninism and Satanism. All the communist regimes try to control their people, keep them hooked on the system with no possibility of advancement while the oligarchs always live luxurious lives at the preverbal “top of the pyramid”. In the book you will see how all the various communism regimes, socialists (anything that not capitalist) centre on Satanism. Karl Marx was a Satanist. The Communist Satanists tried to infiltrate US back in the 40s. The only way to control a population is to make them reliant on the system. They don’t want people to be independent. Communism tries to break the family unit. In the book they talk about how China has been doing this for decades.
Since Putin, Russia is no longer communist. AI answers;
According to Ask AI & Question AI www.iAsk.ai:
Is Russia Still Communist?
To determine whether Russia is still a communist state, it is essential to understand the definition of communism and the current political structure in Russia.
Definition of Communism
Communism, as defined by Karl Marx, is a political and economic ideology that aims for a classless society in which all property is publicly owned, and each person works and is paid according to their abilities and needs. In practice, this has often involved the establishment of a one-party state where the government controls all aspects of life, including the economy.
[ aka you have no vote, you have no say in any matters ]
Current Political Structure in Russia
As of 2025, Russia does not operate under a communist system. The country has transitioned from being part of the Soviet Union—a state that was officially communist—to becoming the Russian Federation after the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. The Russian Federation operates as a federal semi-presidential republic with a strong centralized government led by President Vladimir Putin.
While there are remnants of communist ideology present in some political parties—most notably the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (CPRF)—the party does not hold power in the same way that the Communist Party did during the Soviet era. Instead, it functions within a multi-party system where other parties also exist, albeit under significant restrictions imposed by an authoritarian regime.
[ Similar to Communist Party USA (CPUSA). It was established in 1919. It exists but it holds no power.
Similarly there is a Communist Party of Canada (CPC). It is a federal political party that was founded on May 28, 1921. The CPC is recognized as the second oldest active political party in Canada, following the Liberal Party of Canada. Its formation occurred under conditions of illegality, reflecting the political climate of the time.
…. got it comrade!? ]
Decommunization Efforts
Following the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, Russia has seen various decommunization efforts aimed at distancing itself from its Soviet past. This includes renaming cities that were named after communist leaders and banning symbols associated with communism. However, these efforts have been inconsistent and often met with resistance from segments of society that still hold nostalgic views about the Soviet era.
Conclusion
In summary, Russia is not currently a communist country. It has moved away from traditional communist principles towards a more authoritarian governance model that incorporates elements of capitalism while maintaining significant state control over various sectors.

Russia has old school values. They are primarily Christian values. Maybe move to Russia soon.
No, Putin didn’t just “invade Russia” because he had nothing better to do like the mainstream media wants you to believe. He’s there for many reasons;
1) Biden regime has been funding nefarious businesses in Ukraine for many years. Trump talked about Hunter Biden’s involvement in Ukraine businesses long before he was President the first time. I’m sure Trump will stop sending US money to Ukraine and end the war, though Trump has a huge mess to clean up. #draintheswamp
2) Ukraine has been “Penetrated” to use Klaus Schwab’s word by satanic WEF. [ note: in this clip, Klaus mentions Putin. Ya, he was only there to spy on you Klaus. Putin was a KGB spy before he was president. ]
3) Ukrainian Nazis. Putin is there to Liberate Ukraine but the main stream media will never admit this.
If this is (sort of) public knowledge, I’m sure there are other reasons he’s there as well that we don’t know about.
In 1994, we see Pet Shop Boys
performing the song live, in Russian costume;
Then in 2009
we see the change to the Ukraine colours in their “Official Video”
Now please enjoy unadulterated version of the
Russian National Anthem
performed by the
Bolshoi Junior Choir
The heart lifting video is well done with clips of overcoming adversity as well as some beautiful images. Very powerful song.
