  • Acoustic cover of Go West's "King of Wishful Thinking" performed by Aidan O'Brien. This is one of the songs from a studio session Aidan did in October 2012. The purpose of these videos is to promote a series of live acoustic sessions that Aidan will be performing over the summer. This particular song was chosen because in Aidan's opinion, it was one of the best songs of the 90's. Aidan used an acoustic guitar and bass drum to cover this song.

    Wow! This is by far my favorite cover of this song, and I am going to shamelessly copy it, but WILL give you credit. I do hope you are making money doing this, you deserve it. Very smooth and great production. Thank You!

    No doubt for me the best version told. You can tell which versions are just playing the song and which ones have been burnt. The people playing that can't look at the camera have the hole. Helping me get through this Christmas. Thank you for sharing.

    Sir, this is brilliant. We're about to play this song at a show in a couple weekends, and I'm not afraid to say that we're going to totally steal your arrangement. As they say, good artists borrow, great artists steal. Very well done.

    Love your cover. The little bridge lifted from Michael Bolton? Fits perfectly. I'm trying to make a country cover of this song. Might be a bit to poppy.

    Gave you a thumbs up, but you did kinda butcher the song a bit. Overall, great voice & great guitar play. Nicely done!

      It happens from time to time. Heck, sometimes even the artists themselves butcher their songs.

    Good cover but actually read the lyrics, the chorus is wrong it's... I'll get over you I know I will I'll pretend my ships not sinking and I'll tell myself I'm over you cause I'm the king of wishful thinking

  • @freddyneptune2472

    Yeah man, nice attempt, guitar is beautiful, sweet voice, but you’re destroying one of the greatest chorus lines from the 80s. I’d love to see you do it over.
