Try some Three Dog Night! Too many to pick just one but try "Black & White"! We honestly thought our generation would end all racism, songs like this made me think so!
@@deesiobhan Not sure that is correct; she briefly studied flute at the Royal Academy of Music when she was 17, which left her disillusioned, and led to her rejecting training. I imagine she probably could sing opera though.
Annie Lennox herself found this, and she loves it, because of course she does. Y'all listen to music with your hearts and you're not afraid to appreciate it deeply.
@@mattercat5226 Her layered harmony is the first thing I noticed in the song when I heard it in 1983. I've been waiting literally for decades for someone else to notice it too. Love your comment ❤️
From Annie Lenox tweeting about you... Oh my GOD!!! “I saw this for the first time a couple of days ago... It’s amazing from my perspective, watching these two incredible young guys picking up on Sweet Dreams - recorded in ‘83 THAT’S where the true power of music lies... A bridge to the soul and intellect!”
I read a story somewhere about when Eurythmics toured the U.S. back then. I think it was Detroit, the home of Motown music, but because of the way music was being marketed at that time, the audience was nearly all white. The story said Annie Lennox asked “Where are all the Black people?” She was heartbroken because she thought the Black community didn’t care for her music. Truth was, they just hadn’t heard it because of 80’s radio programming. Compare that to the 70s where you had everything mixed up and everybody listened.
from her facebook account ' She shared your video about her video "Annie Lennox Oh my GOD!!! I saw this for the first time a couple of days ago... It’s amazing from my perspective, watching these two incredible young guys @twinsthenewtrend picking up on Sweet Dreams - recorded in ‘83 THAT’S where the true power of music lies... A bridge to the soul and intellect! Sweet Dreams is a surrealistic futuristic dystopian mantra for the existential nature of our human dilemma!!!!! 🎶🎶🎶 😳🙄😬 Ya think?!!!!"
She is so down to earth too. If you follow her page - she does stuff like shows you the soup she made at home from scratch in a ceramic bowl that you or I could own and using a wooden spoon probably locally crafted. It appears she lives as if she was a regular human being. Like you could reach for an apple at the local market, look up and there's Annie Lennox reaching for the same apple. That's crazy - a world treasure just walking about as if! Lol! Seriously I would die.
I am so envious of you guys hearing Annie’s voice for the first time. She’s one of the greatest singers of all time in my opinion! It actually made me a bit emotional watching this lol - you guys are great!
More Eurythmics: "Would I Lie To You," "Here Comes the Rain Again," "Talking to an Angel" My personal Annie Lennox solo highlight is "Walking on Broken Glass."
I've been sitting here for 21/2 hours watching you guys and soaking up all theses great tunes that I haven't listened to in a while. What a blast and also a bit emotional as well. I'm 59 years old and grew up with these songs. LUCKY ME!
I’m a 51 yr old white woman from Texas. I love y’all! Just makes me feel like I’m there w y’all jamming to my tunes back in the day. It’s crazy how connected u can feel to people through music. Keep doing what y’all do. Sending u guys peace and love your way! God bless u all
if you listen to '80s music, you'll never grow old because you'd never want to leave that musical period. this was the time when american and european artists were churning out absolutely beautiful music!
Say hello wave goodbye had a much more impactful vocal performance... Plus it wasn't a cover, which tainted love is. Think it was Gloria Jones who did the original
Eurythmics - There Must Be An Angel (Playing with My Heart) [feat. Stevie Wonder] Would be great to see your reaction to that track too. Keep up the good work
I think the reason I love these two, is bc they are young adults who weren’t born yet during the music I I grew up, on and they seem to always enjoy the old stuff ❤️
You know that means all us middle agers must accept and listen to rap right? It does go both ways. My daughter puts on nothing but rap in order to teach me something
Lol, same w/ the cello & then my cello teacher was super creepy so I quit before I learned how to play along w/ this song. Still get goosebumps during the cello tho.
@Mezza Mr Ellerston. I was fine when the other student was still taking lessons, but when he quit I just couldn't do it alone. So I only went to the big group leasons. He was a teacher & found out I was getting supplemental lessons from my previous music teacher & he threw a fit about it & had the school put an end to that. Then a family friend who knew that guy personally as well offered to give me lessons & when Ellerston found out cuz I had my family friend accompany me for competition, he threw a huge fit again & got those lessons ended. So I gave up before Ellerston ruined my love for the cello.
I thought the same thing when I just saw this Eurythmics video (my first time) although I've liked the Eurythmics for decades). Now I want to learn cello (although I'm still learning delta Mississippi blues guitar (after playing drums, and keyboards in my band) :-)
If you like Annie Lennox, she also did a version of "I PUT A SPELL ON YOU". It's hot. I'm still hoping you will do Pat Benatar "Love is a Battlefield too.
Annie Lennox from my little big country Scotland. She is our dream. Our Sweet Dream voice and at the time such a bold bold look. She didn’t give AF. My brother saw her in concert and said she was incredibly beautiful. Forever jealous. Thank you for doing this one ❤🎉
Actually that is a Prince song, he wrote it and recorded it. I like this recording better, but find Chris Cornell's live version re ecorded live. He is the best. But not many people could sing like Chris.
I watched this a few days ago. Apparently, Miss Annie Lennox has seen this herself too fellas. She Tweeted about it. You should be really honored. I know I would be. I love your reactions. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Dave Stewart intentionally used Annie Lennox's voice as one of the musical instruments of the song, particularly in this and "Here Comes the Rain Again" ...
In addition to "Here Comes the Rain" and "Walking on Broken Glass," don't forget my personal favorite, "Missionary Man." Everything Annie Lennox does is cool. She could read the phone book while wearing a Hot Dog on a Stick uniform and I'd still be marveling at her originality and talent. LOL
Coming after us olds with all these 80s hits, lol. Don't leave out when Annie Lennox did Walking on Broken Glass- that song was my song for several years.
"Walking on Broken Glass" is a fucking BOP. So much so, that rapper Sammy Adams sampled it 18 years later on his song "Driving Me Crazy" and it still sounds fresh af.
I was an avowed Eurythmics fan throughout high school. Loved Walking on Broken Glass but was into more obscure hits like Beethoven, Right by Your Side, Who's That Girl, Missionary Man, I Need a Man, and Sex Crime (1984).
She’s also a tireless worker for any oppressed anywhere. Probably in her genes, her family were all politically left wing, her uncle a Lord Provost ( Mayor) of Aberdeen Scotland where she comes from.( and as do I)
And for a twist - find the cover of this song done by Marilyn Manson. (Original is better though) I love your reaction to 80s songs! Maybe Duran Duran next?
Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart are legend. You two are a national treasure. So fun listening with you. This song came out when I was 19, lol. We were shocked at the imagery of the video and the world fell in love with Anne Lennox. Great singer, truly one of the greats.
Annie Lennox is a pretty amazing human being with one of the greatest voices ever. In addition to being a talented performer, she's a political activist, a philanthropist and is still as cool as she was 35 yrs ago. PLEASE(!) give Nancy Wilson/Heart's performance of Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" at the Kennedy Center a listen. It's one of the greatest rock performances of all time and it's literally brought the rock gods who wrote the iconic songs to tears. It'll give you goosebumps, I promise!
It's funny how a song can take ya back to a certain memory. My son was about 15 when I first heard it, and now he's 42. Time goes so fast. Love ya guys.
You need to hear George Michael’s voice. It was a natural wonder! I’d recommend “One More Try” or his version of Stevie Wonder’s “They Won’t Go When I Go” “Careless Whisper” is timeless!
The AMA should pay you two for your contribution to the mental health of the USA. You took me right back to the first time I heard Annie Lennox’s amazing voice and this particular arrangement. LOVE you guys!
She does have an incredible voice. I must be tired when I am listening to her at the time. Because I keep falling asleep. Not that she's bad. Maybe I'm just tired. But definitely a good suggestion
I second Sinead O'Connor but please not Nothing Compares 2 U! Ugh. She hated performing it after a while. Mandinka, Troy, so many others that are way, way better!
"Here Comes The Rain Again" is one of my all time favorite songs by Annie Lennox and the Eurythmics! Highly recommend that track if you enjoyed this one.
Annie Lennox is SO GOOD. "Walking on Broken Glass" is a banger, and "Why" is more quiet/slow but still incredible vocally and lyrically. You should do one of those two songs!
The sign of a quality banger, is when you can sing all the words of the chorus in melody after just one hearing!! Great song choice - love Annie Lennox's soulful voice!
@@brigittehuard4902 Oh yes it did! I remember I was maybe no more than five or six years old when this song was new. It was one of the first songs I remember singing to on the radio. I'd belt it out at the top of my lungs and it shocked my family because of the lyrics, but I liked the song and wasn't going to stop! 😊💎💖
Brit new wave started way before. Yaz, depche mode, siousxie, cure, howard jones, brian eno, style council, duran duran, flock of seagulls. Adam ant to erasure
Tears for Fears is amazing! Definitely Everybody Wants to Rule the World, Woman in Chains, or Head over Heels! Have you guys ever listened to Depeche Mode? Personal Jesus is fantastic.
If you're gonna react to Tears for Fears, it has gotta be Mad World not Everyone Wants to Rule the World... Im sorry but Mad World is so much more powerful lyrically
Check out Tears for Fears “SHOUT”, Hall and Oates” Man Eater”, Wham”Wake Me Up(Before You Go Go)”, Men at Work “Man down Under”, Musical Youth “ Pass the Dutchie”, The Police “Roxanne”, I’ll be Watching You”, Duran Duran “A View to a Kill”, Culture Club “ “ Karma Chameleon”, “Do you really want to hurt me”, “Time”, Pat Benatar “ Love is a Battlefield”, Janet Jackson “ Control” ,”The Pleasure Principle”, “Nasty”, her whole catalog, Cindy Lauper “Time After Time,
I"m a mother of twins, so this is fascinating to me. But it's also a welcome happy place to listen to cool music and watch you boys experience it. Annie Lenox, from the Eurythmics, was the first girl I fell in love with. Good luck on all your ventures.
Have you listened to the 4th movement of Beethoven's 9th symphony? It has lots of surprises. Y'all are adorable. Thanks for sharing your time with us. 💛 Black Lives Matter.
Y'all should check out Kate Bush, she has an amazing voice and amazing song writing. Running Up that Hill or Wuthering Heights or Charo ! she is an actress , comedian and a master flamenco guitarist . both women are amazingly gifted musicians
Back in the 80's I was a professional cellist. I got a call from Countdown (an iconic music show in Australia) to be in a film clip. They gave me the song to listen to and asked if I could work out the cello part and play it for the film clip. I listened to the song over and over and couldn't hear a cello. I asked the singer and composer of the song, Tim Finn: mate, I can't hear a cello. His answer: you're right there's no cello. Me: Oh, you mean that synth line? Yeah, I got it..
The Eurythmics are cool and Annie Lennox has a great voice check her out on Hear comes the rain again. I recommend you check out Simply Red “Holding back the years”. I think you both will give him a thumbs up as well. Love your reactions to music I love.

Annie Lennox is a hell of a singer and also has been serving looks for decades.
Came here to say thiiissss. Absolutely. She is one of my favorites for both.
Parchment Scroll She’s beautiful
I saw her open for Sting years ago. I stood there and cried watching her sing. She's been my idol from the beginning.❤
She's a classically trained opera singer.
@@deesiobhan Not sure that is correct; she briefly studied flute at the Royal Academy of Music when she was 17, which left her disillusioned, and led to her rejecting training.
I imagine she probably could sing opera though.
If everyone was as open to new things like these guys...we’d have a better world.
Yes. I love their enthusiastic happiness! 🎙️🎤🎶🎵
Not everyone

Not black PEOPLE
Klatuu freak them out

They have good taste in music
Yes this is making me so beyond happy
Exactly
Annie Lenox has one of the most "COLD" voices of all times. Her androgynous look was so unique and beautiful. Check out "Here Comes The Rain".

Was? IS!
Yes, when this song was released the entire world stopped and did a huge WTF? The eurythmics advanced music by 15 years with that first album.
Must be talking to an angel

Lucky guys. Annie recognized u!
Yeeeaaaassss!!!!
You said what I was about to write better than I would. Keep going fellas. Very much enjoy what you do.
We luv you. ANNIE. LENNOX. U r an icon. God bless
I absolutely love when these two young kings put on their « seatbelts » when they know a track Is going to be fire. Too pure!
Please do Firestarter by The Prodigy.
Glad I discovered you guys ☺️ From a 50 something mum of two lads in England 🙂
I vote for that one too!
Exactly what I was thinking!
Terri here. So much joy during a lousy time!
Making pandemic insomnia doable. Thank you guys!
Annie Lennox, the Scottish lass with the Mississippi Delta Blues voice. She's amazing.
That has to be the best description of her voice.
She was the Chancellor of Music at the Glasgow University. Very accomplished person.
Ok so im officially addicted to this page. My butt should have been asleep 2 hours ago. Smh lol cant stop watching.
Me too. Can’t get enough.
SAME! I’m still up rn
Haha. I just found it tonight and Im two hours in already.
Legit me too!! It's 1:30 am. LOL.
What does smh mean pls?
Fun fact: annie Lennox is singing ALL the voices. They're just tracks layered over each other.
True
Like all production

The iconic voice of Annie Lennox sings the first line.

Did I already mention THE CURE should be next😉
Paulina Astete Fascination Street would be amazing!
She has the most beautiful voice! Her and Alison Moyet!
Ha ha! Love this!

Same. Annie's daughter has started her singing career ( see Annie's FB page ).
These guys are addictive.
“Burning Down the House” by the Talking Heads. You’ll like it.
Burning Down the House by Tom Jones!
Both Talking Heads or Tom Jones offer an equally surrealistic video. Tom’s a better dancer.
@@vamps_rock He did that with Cardigans, so great :-)
Or the Tom Jones / Cardigans version. lol
HERBIE HANCOCK - “Rock it “. Will melt you down.
Annie Lennox is the bomb. Her duet, Sisters Are Doin it for Themselves, with Aretha Franklin would be a great candidate for Women on Wednesdays.
Great song suggestion!
My suggestion, too.
YES!!!!
Aretha, not called the Queen of Soul for nothing - you'll see!
@@heersyal2454 No other white female singer could hold a candle to Aretha in a duet.
You guys have got to check out Eurythmics HERE COMES THE RAIN AGAIN
Also Would I Lie to You?
and there must be an angel
Walking on Broken Glass as well, it is Annie solo, but still awesome.
YES! That is my fave from them. Great music in it.
Who’s that Girl is also a great one.

I`'m 54 years old, grow up in east germany and was also addicted to this kind of music - as you see, we all had more in common than we thought ;)
Nice words bro
This shit been lit for decades bruh, glad to see the young generation listen to great music like this!
I love that they were into it!
Make sure you check out The Cranberries, "Zombie"
I vote for that too!
Yes! I want to see that.
definitely
This video reminded me of “Zombie” also!
Definitely!!
if you listen to '80s music, you'll never grow old because you'd never want to leave that musical period. this was the time when american and european artists were churning out absolutely beautiful music!
Loved the 80’s. And I was in my 30’s with 2 kids. MTV was the best baby sitter
Heck yeah.
Touch... I am so happy I lived during those days to witness it for myself❤️
Well said
There was also a load of trash, which we have fortunately forgotten.
TwinsthenewTrend you should listen to Blondie Heart of Glass and Call Me.

Tears for Fears "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" & a banger "Shout"!

"Mad world" and "Pale Shelter by Tears for Fears
Tears for fears ❤❤❤

Amen!
Listen to Tainted Love by Soft Cell
Oh yes!
Say hello wave goodbye had a much more impactful vocal performance...
Plus it wasn't a cover, which tainted love is. Think it was Gloria Jones who did the original
I'd take Sex Dwarf over Tainted Love as an introduction to Soft Cell, if you ask me
Do you know that song is a remake?
SweetSpot70 of course but it’s the better version though
Eurythmics - There Must Be An Angel (Playing with My Heart) [feat. Stevie Wonder]
Would be great to see your reaction to that track too. Keep up the good work
“Sledgehammer” by Peter Gabriel. That video was a breakthrough when it came out. The song is fantastic!
Yaaas! Sledgehammer for sure, pleeease!
Or "In Your Eyes" from any of the live concerts (suggest Milan). Gabriel just keeps getting better. Or Genesis "Firth of Fifth"....
Yes!!!
Classic
Red rain is far better

Love that you listen to everything. I wish more people would get outside of their comfort zone and try new music.
I agree, nobody should miss out on good music.

I really liked her song "Why".
AGREED!
FOR REAL.
Would I lie to you?...haha! She's Amazing on "Would I lie to you" & "Here comes the Rain Again"
Missionary Man is also a great one.
Annie Lennox’s voice is absolutely amazing. She has a richness to her singing that you don’t often hear.
Another banger from the Eurythmics is "Who's that girl". Opening verse is amazing
Annie Lennox and David Bowie - Under Pressure. Is good too..........
Sinead O'Connor - nothing compares to you a listen
Actually that is a Prince song, he wrote it and recorded it. I like this recording better, but find Chris Cornell's live version re ecorded live. He is the best. But not many people could sing like Chris.

Annie dressed this way so the focus was her voice and not her looks. She's got an amazing voice, check out some her solo work too.
Strong agree
Her solo work is amazing!
She’s also a tireless worker for any oppressed anywhere.
Probably in her genes, her family were all politically left wing, her uncle a Lord Provost ( Mayor) of Aberdeen Scotland where she comes from.( and as do I)
@@arthurfnshelby4335 I did not know she was from Scotland. That makes me happy.
Hysterical. You don't think a woman in a suit with brightly colored hair and brilliant eyes focused anyone on her looks?
Falco: Der Kommisar, Nena: 99 Luftballons, Frankie goes to Hollywood: Relax
Lol hello from France and the 80's ! you just bring me back a lot of memories! Take care!
When you’re singing a song after your first listen, classic.
Tricia Roy I love that the twins couldn’t get enough of this song!
And for a twist - find the cover of this song done by Marilyn Manson. (Original is better though) I love your reaction to 80s songs! Maybe Duran Duran next?
Those songs were ahead of their time, fo sho.
IMO, "Hungry Like the Wolf" made MTV, because the video was unlike anything we'd ever experienced!
Love them both. One of my all time favorite songs
80s yes - react to Blondie!
I love Marilyn Manson, but I don't know if they are ready for that.
I like their joy..! Lol
Listen to the song EVERYBODY WANTS TO RULE THE WORLD, by Tears for Fears....great song.....
The whole first Tears for Fear Album...
The entire Tears for Fears album!!! It would blow the Twins minds!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
love that one!!
in fact every tears for fears songggggg I love them soo much
💯%agree
Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart are legend. You two are a national treasure. So fun listening with you. This song came out when I was 19, lol. We were shocked at the imagery of the video and the world fell in love with Anne Lennox. Great singer, truly one of the greats.
It's heartwarming and inspiring to relive this rich legacy of music through the eyes of these 2 open-minded young people. Don't ever stop!
Looking back 37 years to 1983. Also 37 years before 1983 = 1946.
Annie Lennox’s voice is sublime. She’s amazingly talented. 💜
Annie Lennox is a pretty amazing human being with one of the greatest voices ever. In addition to being a talented performer, she's a political activist, a philanthropist and is still as cool as she was 35 yrs ago.
PLEASE(!) give Nancy Wilson/Heart's performance of Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" at the Kennedy Center a listen.
It's one of the greatest rock performances of all time and it's literally brought the rock gods who wrote the iconic songs to tears. It'll give you goosebumps, I promise!
Great recommend!
Absolutely!
It's funny how a song can take ya back to a certain memory. My son was about 15 when I first heard it, and now he's 42. Time goes so fast. Love ya guys.
Listen to her songs “No More “I Love You’s” and “Walking On Broken Glass”.
Yaaaaasss both are great!
And "Why"
Yes, these were also amazing!!!
"No More I Love Yous" - gives me chills, just thinking of how beautiful it is!
And “Cold” and “Little Bird”
Annie Lennox is still rocking it, and she has always been ahead of her time, glad you appreciated her work.
You need to hear George Michael’s voice. It was a natural wonder! I’d recommend “One More Try” or his version of Stevie Wonder’s “They Won’t Go When I Go” “Careless Whisper” is timeless!
"Jesus to a child" by George Michael is beautiful
They Won’t Go When I Go - both his and Stevie’s are my absolute favorite
His cover of “I Can’t Make You Love Me”. So good.
Definitely- try “This is not real love (feat. Mutya)”
Yes, or Cowboys and Angels - just beautiful.
The AMA should pay you two for your contribution to the mental health of the USA. You took me right back to the first time I heard Annie Lennox’s amazing voice and this particular arrangement. LOVE you guys!
I would really, really recommend Kate Bush. She is an absolute original and has an incredible voice. I would start with Running Up that Hill.
yessss Kate Bush is the queen! "Wuthering Heights" is also such a good song and the music video is wild
Kate is The Goddess.
YES QUEEEN
She does have an incredible voice. I must be tired when I am listening to her at the time. Because I keep falling asleep. Not that she's bad. Maybe I'm just tired. But definitely a good suggestion
Yes Kate Bush please! Running Up That Hill is classic
Have you heard "Nothing Compares 2 U" by Sinead O'Connor? Written by Prince
Will love that too.....
I second Sinead O'Connor but please not Nothing Compares 2 U! Ugh. She hated performing it after a while. Mandinka, Troy, so many others that are way, way better!
that or Zombie! Either way amazing voice!
Macs Fe Troy! Yes!
@@gonnahurtify Zombie? Sinead O'Connor didn't sing that.
Watch - Eurythmics - Here Comes The Rain Again.
Yes, yes, and yes!
Oh yes!
I love HERE COMES THE RAIN AGAIN, the sound and the video too
"Back in the day" I cranked Annie Lenox on my commute and sang like I could! She's all that!
"Here Comes The Rain Again" is one of my all time favorite songs by Annie Lennox and the Eurythmics! Highly recommend that track if you enjoyed this one.
Annie Lennox is SO GOOD. "Walking on Broken Glass" is a banger, and "Why" is more quiet/slow but still incredible vocally and lyrically. You should do one of those two songs!
"Why" is such a beautiful song.
The sign of a quality banger, is when you can sing all the words of the chorus in melody after just one hearing!! Great song choice - love Annie Lennox's soulful voice!
I remember the first time I saw/heard "Sweet Dreams". It was exactly like this. Extremely impressive from the very first second.
The important thing to remember - Nothing else had ever sounded like this before ... groundbreaker ... trailblazer.
So very true! This is one of the songs that has had tremendous influence on my own work over the years. 😊💎💖
This blew everyone's mind! It was so fresh and new.
@@brigittehuard4902 Oh yes it did! I remember I was maybe no more than five or six years old when this song was new. It was one of the first songs I remember singing to on the radio. I'd belt it out at the top of my lungs and it shocked my family because of the lyrics, but I liked the song and wasn't going to stop! 😊💎💖
Brit new wave started way before. Yaz, depche mode, siousxie, cure, howard jones, brian eno, style council, duran duran, flock of seagulls. Adam ant to erasure
@@Songcrafter25 My dad immediately fell in love with her voice. I was just a kid too when this came out and we played it a lot at home.
Y'all should hear "Sisters Are Doin It For Themselves" it's Eurythmics with Aretha Franklin. And also Here Comes the Rain Again by them as well.
Next is Here Comes the Rain Again by them. Great choice!!!
I loved their reaction.This is the quietest I 'vd ever known them to be through a song
That is one of my fave songs. Also, check out Everyone Wants to Rule the World by Tears for Fears.
Yeah and woman in chains!
YESSSSSSS
Yes!!
Tears for Fears is amazing! Definitely Everybody Wants to Rule the World, Woman in Chains, or Head over Heels!
Have you guys ever listened to Depeche Mode? Personal Jesus is fantastic.
If you're gonna react to Tears for Fears, it has gotta be Mad World not Everyone Wants to Rule the World... Im sorry but Mad World is so much more powerful lyrically
Some others to listen to are:
The Cranberries - Zombie or Ode to my Family
The Bad Wolves cover of Zombies, I recommended that the other day!!
@@christinisamathnerd literally any Cranberries song, Delores voice so powerful
Zombie for sure
Yes you must do Zombie!
Yes please!
Check out Tears for Fears “SHOUT”, Hall and Oates” Man Eater”, Wham”Wake Me Up(Before You Go Go)”, Men at Work “Man down Under”, Musical Youth “ Pass the Dutchie”, The Police “Roxanne”, I’ll be Watching You”, Duran Duran “A View to a Kill”, Culture Club “ “ Karma Chameleon”, “Do you really want to hurt me”, “Time”, Pat Benatar “ Love is a Battlefield”, Janet Jackson “ Control” ,”The Pleasure Principle”, “Nasty”, her whole catalog, Cindy Lauper “Time After Time,
Tears for Fears “SHOUT”, I second this
All of those recommends are perfect but Tears for Fears Shout!!!
And Hall and Oates "I Can't Go For That" with Cindy Lauper "True Colors"
Wham is featured in the movie Deadpool.
A-ha-take on me!!!
I"m a mother of twins, so this is fascinating to me. But it's also a welcome happy place to listen to cool music and watch you boys experience it. Annie Lenox, from the Eurythmics, was the first girl I fell in love with. Good luck on all your ventures.
Talking to an Angel also by The Eurythmics shows Annie Lennox's range.
Roslyn Clifford: I was just going to suggest that song!! Actually, it's "There must be an angel" (playing with my heart.) 😄👍
Yes 💖💖
Have you listened to the 4th movement of Beethoven's 9th symphony? It has lots of surprises. Y'all are adorable. Thanks for sharing your time with us. 💛 Black Lives Matter.
And Stevie Wonder on the Harmonica
fantastic song, underrated imho
Y'all should check out Kate Bush, she has an amazing voice and amazing song writing. Running Up that Hill or Wuthering Heights or Charo ! she is an actress , comedian and a master flamenco guitarist . both women are amazingly gifted musicians
"Don't Give Up" with Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush is great!
I'm waiting for the day they start getting into Kate Bush
Hey fellas y’all should checkout Peter Gabriel “Sledgehammer”
YES. THIS. I absolutely second this recommendation.
I third it!
YES!!!! Good call! Love Peter Gabriel.
I don't remember.
Gabriel and Kate bush don’t give up
Annie Lennox's "Why" always brings me to tears. Exquisite.
80s music be like:
"We need a cello for this part"
*flips switch on keyboard*
"Ready"
Back in the 80's I was a professional cellist. I got a call from Countdown (an iconic music show in Australia) to be in a film clip. They gave me the song to listen to and asked if I could work out the cello part and play it for the film clip. I listened to the song over and over and couldn't hear a cello. I asked the singer and composer of the song, Tim Finn: mate, I can't hear a cello. His answer: you're right there's no cello. Me: Oh, you mean that synth line? Yeah, I got it..
The Eurythmics are cool and Annie Lennox has a great voice check her out on Hear comes the rain again.
I recommend you check out Simply Red “Holding back the years”. I think you both will give him a thumbs up as well. Love your reactions to music I love.
OHHHH THIS ONE. Blondie singing the song Rapture. You have to do this one.
This is on my playlist.
This was my thought too- can’t wait!
Yes, a must listen.
Yes, perfect song of the “punk” rock era. Loved them, Berlin and Garbage.
100%
Try "There must be an angel", by the Eurhythmics. You will see Annie Lennox's range.
Annie Lenox has the legendary voice.❤️
That she does!
@@monicabailey3177 "There must be a Angel" !
Love how the twins become her backup singers at the fade out.
Look for Annie Lennox rehearsing "Under Pressure" with David Bowie for the Freddy Mercury tribute concert.
P.S. Love the new intro.
