Go West is the debut album by the English pop duo Go West, released in 1985. The album brought Go West into the limelight, scoring them a string of top 40 hits in the UK and New Zealand. "We Close Our Eyes" was the most successful single, reaching No. 4 in New Zealand and No. 5 in the UK.

Go West had been writing songs for the album since 1982, when they were formed in London by Peter Cox and Richard Drummie. Two songs featured on the album, "We Close Our Eyes" and "Call Me", helped Go West land a record deal with Chrysalis Records.

The album featured more Top 40 UK/New Zealand hits than any of their other albums and helped them to be voted Best Newcomers at the 1986 Brit Awards.

The song "Goodbye Girl" was featured in the first episode of the second season of the 1980s TV series Miami Vice.

All songs written by Peter Cox and Richard Drummie.
