Very nice, but that's the 1991 original version, which I bought at the time and reached #5 in my chart. The 1992 version is a rather awful remix.

Go-Go Dancer not doing anywhere near as well here as Blue Eyes did. I had a look at the Spotify streams for each song: which is the most popular and which is the least. Blue Eyes is the most streamed.

1. Blue Eyes (138,078)
2. Flying Saucher (117,560)
3. Come Play With Me (109,298)
4. Sticky (67,084)
5. Silver Shorts (65,887)
6. California (58,149)
7. Three (50,900)
8. Go-Go Dancer (42,917)
9. Boing! (39,287)
10. Love Slave (33,467)
11. The Queen Of Outer Space (33,106)
12. No Christmas (29,018)

In general the earlier ones are doing better than the later ones, except for Sticky which was October but near the top, and Go-Go Dancer is near the bottom with Three just above it.

Although the first two are doing similarly in my chart, the chart was much stronger in January than in February for me, and Blue Eyes is the better song. There will be a run of them that do extremely well in my chart.
