Their most badass and fiercest song - so glad you reacted to it - nobody else does! I don't think Eurythmics are underrated - but this song definitely is!
I love this side of them, it just shows their versatility. Great duo and Annie is a straight-up badass who was a very positive influence on young ladies during the 80s. I think that in the music world, Dave and Annie are both very well respected.
Annie is one of the best vocalists of our generation. You should see her sing Under Pressure live with David Bowie at the Freddie tribute concert. Not many people can match Freddie in that song but she did.
LOVE this song and album. Very underrated. I think the problem is people did not get what she was doing with this song and album. They took it at face value. This is someone in an abusive relationship in a downward spiral. She once said her character took on a split personality and here she is a woman singing as a man as a drag queen. The album is that story.: abused, struggling, free. Worth a listen. You Have Placed a Chill is another stand out.
I think they were underrated. I know I was the only one of my friends who really liked them, because my friends thot their music was weird like their videos. I still to this day love them, and play their disks in my car all the time. I do love all the songs on this CD. For a change of pace, You have Placed a Chill in My Heart is really beautiful
Eurythmics were my band in the Eighties. I loved them from Sweet Dreams to Annie going solo. Had every album, cassette, 7 and 12 inch single they released. Most underrated band ever
This whole album was amazing, one of my favorites of theirs! This song was definitely underrated! Also, I loved how all the videos off this album told the story of her character.
You asked are the Eurythmics undereated. YES. YES, YES. In this incredible world of ours. 2 people cross paths from out of nowhere to create magic. 60 sixties and eighties music will never be srpassed
Savage was my favorite album by the band. Check out You Have Placed a Chill in my Heart, and Savage. Really a great album from start to finish. I wouldn't say they were underrated, but I think some folks didn't quite get them. They were incredibly talented and kept changing their style.
I loved this song when it came out and was surprised it wasn’t a bigger hit. (Didn’t stop me from putting it and "You Have Placed A Chill In My Heart" on my friends’ mixtapes though :-)
They leave it ALL on the pavement with this song. I've never understood why it wasn't as big as Sweet Dreams or Here Comes the Rain Again, it's such an absolute showstopper.
They were so popular in the 80's!! I loved their music and wished I had seen them in concert. Another wonderful British band from that great decade of the Best 🎵🎶 music! Maybe you weren't of age then. Their sound was amazing.
Annie is soulfully perfect and Dave is her perfect musical partner. Eurythmics were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame last year. Well deserved for a diverse catalogue by divine artists.
You’d love the Annie Lennox + Aretha Franklin duet, “Sisters Are Doing it for Themselves.” Epic banger and once-in-a-lifetime collab by two true divas (despite their mutual personal dislike of each other). Enjoying your channel! Keep it coming!
I've never heard that there was personal dislike of one another. I've heard Lennox regarded Aretha Franklin as a music legend before meeting her. Is there a story there with this recording?
This song is just crazy good. I think at the time it was severely under rated. It was like, the Eurythmics have yet another hit, with out appreciating the genius behind the song and Annie's once in a century voice with her natural acting abilities.
When they hit the seine with Sweet Dreams, all you heard about was how great he voice was. They had a brand-new sound. Anna Lennox did a powerful rendition of Cole Porters "Ev'ry time we say good by". You might want to give it a listen.
Thanks for this reaction! Beethoven is possibly my favorite Eurythmics song AND video-truly a musical and visual masterpiece. It was number one most played on my iPod back in the day. ❤❤❤
Luv it!! It's the bomb!! Lyrics Vocals music are like on it!!!. Always enjoy Annie and Dave's stuff. Sooooo talented. This one is just electric. She looks like she had a blast performing this one. Just so in ur face!! Luvvvv IT!!
One of my favorite bands, had tickets to see them back in the 80s drove 3 hours only to find out the concert was canceled due to illness. Never did get to see them in person. You have to listen to her and Dave's previous band, the Tourists. Thesy did a great cover of Dusty Springfield's I only want to be with you!!!!
Ah man, doing some good ones today. Haven't heard this in about 5 million minutes. I loved this song, and this video, where Annie is like some depraved, psycho Marilyn Monroe. Annie loved playing little characters - both in videos and in the songs, really. Almost a female David Bowie, but in miniature, changing from song to song, rather than from record to record.
I remember this packed the dance floor. There's actually a video for every song on the album. They actually put it out as a video album and I have it on VHS. You really should do them some time in order since the whole thing tells a story. So awesome.
I don't know this with 100% certainty, but the percussive bass sound that registered so strongly with you is almost certainly the product of the Synclavier that Stewart and percussionist/programmer Olle Romo were building most of the instrumental tracks of *Savage* on, tinkering as they struggled to deprogram the "voice" of its former owner (Buffy Sainte-Marie) out of it and instead arm it with the array of sounds Stewart had been collecting over years of touring. Much of the sonic landscape of the album (which is excellent) comes from the Synclavier's polyphonic digital sampling system in alchemy with the audio and musical sensibilities of Stewart, Romo, and Lennox...so you might find the album very interesting indeed to listen to on headphones with the awareness that much of what you're hearing in the structure is sampled sounds (including Lennox's own voice, often) retooled as percussion.
I always imagined she was trying a drag persona. I didn’t know about the earlier video, chaotic time for me. Did use this in a mix tape, intro was “Who’s that Girl” sample from Madonna. Miss mix tape making, dual deck demon!
Para mí, Savage es el mejor álbum de Eurythmics, simplemente genial, aunque increíblemente no tuvo el éxito que se merecía. Y la banda debería haber sido muchísimo más reconocida de lo que fue, si bien tuvieron muchos hits, cada disco es una obra de arte en sí...
I’m so pleased you liked it, “Savage” is raw and it’s what the Eurythmics do best, they change and explore with every new album, I think some of the critics got it wrong, try “Shame” and “You Have Placed a Chill in My Heart” from the same album!
Savage is my fav Eurythmics album. And of course, this was my song lol. Eurythmics definitely were underrated. Were my fav band back in the day--still are. Don't know where I read it, but years ago read an interview with Linda Ronstadt, she was asked who she voice she liked and she said Annie Lennox, that she didn't understand why people weren't running down the streets just screaming out her name lol
You should listen to Annie (she had a solo career after the Eurythmics broke up) do her version of I Put a Spell on You. She's had a pretty major solo career.
Annie from Scotland,Dave Stewart from England,and together they made bangers like this. A similar rocker from them,Would I Lie To You is right up your street,and Annie is sexy as hell in that one too.
SAVAGE was such a shift in direction, I think it took a lot of the 'critics' off guard, a lot of them upgraded their opinions in later years lol Suggestions, DON"T ASK ME WHY or Annie's best solo offering LOVE SONG FOR A VAMPIRE. Also KING AND QUEEN OF AMERICA, that video is just truly how the British must have looked at us Americans in the 90s lol
My ex boyfriend played this one time on his truck while we were driving and I was surprised I had never heard it back in the day and he was 10 years older than I so I was surprised he knew it Lol
Women were treated like shit by music industry, there are so many power house women from this era, even though the audience loved them the industry acted like they were a side act. Think about this in the early 90 s the industry thought female artists couldn’t fill a music fair. When Lilith Fair came around,the industry bet against them. They dominated and changed everything
Fun fact: at the end of "Beethoven" video, we see Annie transform from a frustrated house wife, who then taps into her inner child, who gives her permission to transform into a drag queen; in this case a woman who's imitating a man that would dress like a woman. It's mind blowing when Annie comes thru as we see a ramped up Marilyn Monroe (more or less). This character makes several appearances throughout this ground breaking video concept album, Savage.
Not underrated, they are royalty. Annie is a godess, and Dave is a genius ❤
Their most badass and fiercest song - so glad you reacted to it - nobody else does! I don't think Eurythmics are underrated - but this song definitely is!
I first heard this song in the early 90s when still in high school. Still one of my favorite Eurythmics songs.
Not only is Annie a phenomenal singer - she is a Great Actress!!
Eurythmics = A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!
She was smokin' in this video. Incredible talent.
I love this side of them, it just shows their versatility. Great duo and Annie is a straight-up badass who was a very positive influence on young ladies during the 80s. I think that in the music world, Dave and Annie are both very well respected.

The album is that story.: abused, struggling, free. Worth a listen. You Have Placed a Chill is another stand out.
Yep, it's an album of breakup, heart ache, bad love. My fav song on the entire album is the title song.
I love that you're getting into Eurythmics. This album Savage is fire and very underrated.
My all time favourite is “You have place a chill in my heart”
I have the Savage, Shame, Beethoven and I Need a Man covers as prints on my bedroom wall.
Annie doing her best Mick Jagger impression and I love it.
Another excellent track from this album is “I Love to Listen to Beethoven.” It’s in this video that she becomes the character in “I Need a Man.”
FYI, He already reacted to that video.🫶
This slbum is definitely under rated.
I think they were underrated. I know I was the only one of my friends who really liked them, because my friends thot their music was weird like their videos. I still to this day love them, and play their disks in my car all the time. I do love all the songs on this CD. For a change of pace, You have Placed a Chill in My Heart is really beautiful
Eurythmics were my band in the Eighties. I loved them from Sweet Dreams to Annie going solo. Had every album, cassette, 7 and 12 inch single they released. Most underrated band ever
HIGHLY underated! She has an amazing catalogue of her own, as well! Love Song For A Vampire, such a beautiful song.
You asked if they're underrated. In the beginning perhaps, but folk soon cottoned on. Best track, by far, is "Thorn in My Side."
Great band!!!!! Annie's charisma and appeal are off the charts...try Love Is A Stranger....its great!!!
She is so gorgeous and incredibly talented!
This whole album was amazing, one of my favorites of theirs! This song was definitely underrated! Also, I loved how all the videos off this album told the story of her character.

I am 100% YOUR opinion.
But I rarely heard bad reviews, there was always enthusiasm
Annie Lennox is in a class of her own
Thank you for reacting to this track. It is completely underrated and one of my favorites from Eurythmics. Your reaction is spot on. I love it.
ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITES. Dang, this brings back so many great memories of the 80’s. Perfection. 😁❤️
They leave it ALL on the pavement with this song. I've never understood why it wasn't as big as Sweet Dreams or Here Comes the Rain Again, it's such an absolute showstopper.
Desperate?! I think not!😂Think it's called creativity and talent lol Go Annie! I need a man too !
Wow very cool. Dont know how I haven't heard this ever!! I feel cheated .. man. Thnx Salvo . I really liked this .. play list 👌🏼
Watching her perform this live in a leopard print leotard was the hottest concert moment ever.
One of my favorite obscure Eurythmics hits!! Annie takes her voice to new depths 🔥 thanks for the fun reaction!!
One of my fave songs/albums by them. Went right over the heads of most critics.
This is from my favorite album by Eurythmics. Savage is an amazing album.
They were so popular in the 80's!! I loved their music and wished I had seen them in concert. Another wonderful British band from that great decade of the Best 🎵🎶 music! Maybe you weren't of age then. Their sound was amazing.

I l8ve this song. It's one of their best from one of their best albums, "Savage".
Such a joy to see you discover just how fantastic and dope the Eurythmics we're. The synthesizers on savage are unique.
This song is just crazy good. I think at the time it was severely under rated. It was like, the Eurythmics have yet another hit, with out appreciating the genius behind the song and Annie's once in a century voice with her natural acting abilities.
I love this song and video.
Very underrated! They're just awesome & so talented.

They were on 🔥 when they made this one. Fantastic choice once again and fantastic reaction
In general, VERY underrated. Of course, people into this area of music KNOW. lol This song is FIRE, indeed. They have a couple dozen others.
Annie has one of the best female voices of all time!
You're very good taste in music
I remember this packed the dance floor. There's actually a video for every song on the album. They actually put it out as a video album and I have it on VHS. You really should do them some time in order since the whole thing tells a story. So awesome.
More Eurythmics, please ! 🎉❤
Annie Lennox "Cold "
Aside from a handful of tracks - yes, they're generally underrated.
A woman after my own Heart!👍
I think Annie Lennox is under rated. The Eurythmics were wonderful, lightning in a bottle. Annie's voice is timeless and a crime. Love her always.

What fantastic information!
Shout out to one of my favorite, fellow contraltos!
Great tune. Thanks for sharing your journeys
I know what she wants, I understand her so well!!
YES.....THE EURYTHMICS ARE UNDERRATED!!!!!
Underrated? Maybe in the USA. They’re highly regarded internationally.
I always imagined she was trying a drag persona. I didn’t know about the earlier video, chaotic time for me. Did use this in a mix tape, intro was “Who’s that Girl” sample from Madonna.
Miss mix tape making, dual deck demon!
This was a masterpiece periid.
Great reaction! I love this group but I had not heard this song until now. She is Awesome!
FIRE!! 🔥 Got to see them back in the day. Plus saw Annie solo back in the 90's. Also FIRE! 🔥
Have you heard her do I put a spell on you? It's fantastic!!!
Para mí, Savage es el mejor álbum de Eurythmics, simplemente genial, aunque increíblemente no tuvo el éxito que se merecía. Y la banda debería haber sido muchísimo más reconocida de lo que fue, si bien tuvieron muchos hits, cada disco es una obra de arte en sí...

A masterpiece 🙏❤️🙏
Now that you've watched the first two, you should do "You Have Placed a Chill In My Heart," which is the third one in the sequence.
The Savage album is amazing!!!! I hope you continue to react and entertain you! ❤
I Love The Band And Annie
Annie's vocal and the guitar style on this song was influenced by Undercover Of The Night by The Rolling Stones.
So underrated
In music men are intimidated by a strong woman. 👶
Yes underrated
Annie’s performance as this character is 💯% DRAG. It’s clear the critics missed the memo on that.
I love the music, show and your beard Daddy. 😉
It makes me think of the rolling Stones
Yes, it's cool, I also like the studio version, it sounds just as good
This is the studio version - it is the official video
Yes, underrated.
This was quite popular.
ICONIC QUEEN ANNIE LENNOX ❤
You should listen to Annie (she had a solo career after the Eurythmics broke up) do her version of I Put a Spell on You. She's had a pretty major solo career.
Annie from Scotland,Dave Stewart from England,and together they made bangers like this.

Fire!!!!

Suggestions, DON"T ASK ME WHY or Annie's best solo offering LOVE SONG FOR A VAMPIRE. Also KING AND QUEEN OF AMERICA, that video is just truly how the British must have looked at us Americans in the 90s lol
My ex boyfriend played this one time on his truck while we were driving and I was surprised I had never heard it back in the day and he was 10 years older than I so I was surprised he knew it Lol
Try “there must be an angel” it’s shows a totally different side of them and as a bonus Stevie Wonder plays harmonica on it!
I keep telling people how badass Annie is in this video and song.
Thanks for doing this one.
Is the sexy gettin' to ya, G?
I love Annie so much! This song was pretty popular in the gay bars at the time. LoL. Another great reminiscing moment. Thanks Salvo
That was fun

Amazing! It's ANNIE LENOX! If you don't like them, you don't know them. Underrated? YES!! I loved thus... how can you not! (Jodi/ Child of the 60s) ✌

Great song 🎶 I love Annie Lennox ❤
Critics didn’t know shit, this is spectacular ❤
