It was written by Peter Cox and Richard Drummie, and produced by Gary Stevenson.[2][3] "Eye to Eye" reached No. 73 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and No. 32 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart.[4][5] For its release as a single, the song was given a remix by the American synthpop duo The System.[3] To promote the song, the band performed it on Soul Train in October 1985.[6] Critical receptionUpon release, Cash Box listed the song as one of their feature picks during August 1985 and commented: "With moderate success from its first two singles, this versatile and astute British group's latest release is an R&B tinged song which shows soul and heart. A nice crossover effort."[1] In a review of the 12" single, Cash Box said: "Go West's most R&B flavored cut is here remixed by the System and the result is a Hall & Oates-ish version guaranteed to be a strong urban player."[7] Billboard recommended the song and described the song as "blue-eyed synth-soul" and "Doobie-ish".[8] In a review of the Go West album, People said: "...still, the LP's best cuts, "Goodbye Girl" and "Eye to Eye", are little more than blatant soul knockoffs. But hey, if it comes out this tasty, why not go ahead?"[9] In the Digital Audio's Guide to Compact Discs, a review of the album noted: "The singles "We Close Our Eyes" and "Call Me" attack you with greater clarity and more drive than you'll hear on the radio. The same holds true with the remaining seven cuts, most notably "Haunted" and "Eye to Eye.""[10] Track listing
