Love Eurythmics! Annie Lennox is one of the great voices of all time and Dave Stewart is a amazing producer and musician. And it's amazing that Stevie Wonder played the harmonica in the song too.
You're amazing, that absolutely is Stevie Wonder on the harmonica! This is a favorite of mine to get into a good mood and just sit in wonder at the vocal rollercoaster Annie is on! The song went to number one in several countries around the world but stalled out at #22 here in the U.S. and never charted on the R&B charts. I think their record label was just bad at promotion.
I don't think the U.S. liked 80s Brit Pop. They actually refused to let Annie Lennox into the country without her taking a blood test to prove she was a woman.
Love the sheer joy and happiness you express to this song as well as the thoughts and interpretations you share from your knowledge and understanding of music!
So Good! I'm glad I broke the Annie Lennox seal with Sweet Dreams in March! There's still so much great music of hers for you to discover and dive in to!
This song was the second single of thier album ''Be Yourself Tonight'', after ''Would I Lie to You!''. Stevie Wonder played the harmonica in this song. This album was huge and the three first singles remains very iconic. The three first singles did very well in Europe, like in US, with ''Would I Lie to You'' (n.17 UK, n.5 US), ''There Must Be An Angel'' (n.1 UK, n.22 US) and ''Sisters are Doin' It For Themselves'' (n.9 UK, n.18 US) and all remains very popular back then in 1985. The last single of the album ''It's Alright'' was a hit in Europe, but didn't do well at all in US.
As if it isn’t enough to be watching you so thoroughly explore and respect Madonna’s work, now you gotta become a fan of one of my other favourites of all time! ✨✨✨ It is SUCH a pleasure to watch you becoming a fan of the brilliant Ms Lennox. And such fun as always to enjoy reactions from someone like you with an incredible musical ear and a beautiful voice of your own✨
You should react to the music video for this song and especially the live performance of this song from the Mandela benefit concert in 88 with the killer harmonica player's solo at the end. I'm glad you enjoyed this song because it's one of my top 5 favorite Eurythmics songs. And I'm glad that you reacted to the extended version of this song. And yes, that was Stevie Wonder on the harmonica.

She prefers the audio so the visuals don't distract what she is trying to hear. The videos get in the way for my tastes too...especially if the video is just bizarre and has zero to do with the song.
@@brypiot you're absolutely right. Anyway I think the video Is cute. And she has a particular charisma, so I like to see her while listening to her voice, but Empress doesn't like It when she's hearing a new Song, I know 😊
@@HaydenTH-cam Hi Hayden, you're right too!! Anyway I've noticed that some reactors try to use some tricks to avoid the block. Someone Is blocking the video quite often, and someone makes some scenes unfocused. So I think there are some ways to solve or to reduce the problem. It would be interesting to understand why some video are immediately blocked and others not, even if you don't use any technique to avoid the block 🤔🤔 Empress has discussed about this matter in a Q&A video. Anyway it's a mess 😅
Please react to Janet Jackson's Control and Rhythm Nation albums especially What Have You Done For Me Lately, Nasty, When I Think Of You, Let's Wait Awhile, Control, Pleasure Principle, Miss You Much, Rhythm Nation Escapade, Alright, Black Cat, Come Back To Me and Love Will Never Do Without You. And react to Jody Watley's Looking For A New Love, Some Kind Of Lover, Still A Thrill, Most Of All, Real Love and Friends please.
Dave Stewart also co-wrote Alison Moyet's hit "Is This Love?" which is worth a listen if you want to hear a rare female pop music contralto vocal of the highest level.
Please react their Here Comes The Rain Again and Thorn In My Side, Miracle of Love, When Tomorrow Comes, You Have Placed A Chill In My Heart and Angel. And react to Olivia Newton John's Magic, Martika's Love Thy Will Be Done, Anita Baker's Sweet Love, Giving You The Best That I Got, Sam Ol Love, Body and Soul and Sade's Smooth Operator, Is Ot A Crime, Your Love Is King, Hang On To Your Love, Sweetest Taboo, Paradise and No Ordinary Love.
I am loving this unexpected Annie/ Eurythmics sub-journey, especially since you are feeling it too Empress! Annie will always be on my top 5 faves of all time, so I am def HERE FOR IT! I forgot how amazing this song is...10s across the board!
This is such an underrated Eurythmics song... Annie's vocals in this are just angelic. Thank you for your reaction!
My pleasure
stop using that word for anything, this song was absolutely massive, even number 1 in the UK
@@OnlyGoodMusic_ - This song is hardly played on the radio now-a-days... and it's a shame because it's a great song. Very underrated.
That isn't Stevie-Wonder-like harmonica, that IS Stevie Wonder on harmonica ❤
yes!!

I will never understand how this didn't break into at LEAST the Top 20 in the U.S. As many of other Eurythmics singles as well.
@@kilgh really😳 definitely doesn’t look like a man to me 😃
@@kilgh i think airport security would find that out, after they put her through the X-ray scanner
I love the gospel influenced bridge of the song.
So soulful and happy - I love this track! Stevie - you bet!!! The video for this song is really awesome, too!
Great song. Eurythmics has many great songs like "The Miracle Of Love", "When Tomorrow Comes", "Here Comes The Rain Again" and "Missionary Man".
Just a beautiful song "The Miracle Of Love". Should have charted higher than it did around the world.
@@veddyveddygood yes, great song
Annie's vocals. She did that. She's definitely the real deal!
Empress looking like Stacey Dash with braces swinging it 😂
Love the sheer joy and happiness you express to this song as well as the thoughts and interpretations you share from your knowledge and understanding of music!
An iconic face of the 80s. The white Grace Jones. Camp theatrics, drama and new wave pop fatale ferocity and at the centre, brains and gifted vocals.
Iconic vocalist both with Eurythmics and solo. Great band. An amazing chronological journey with this band and their videos.
My fave song from them and yes its Stevie.
I love Eurythmics are a great band 🎶
Love A lot of the songs you pick. Good taste. You definitely have an 80s soul.
Stevie wonder did the harmonica for this song.
🔥
Must react to Eurythmics “Don’t Ask Me Why” & watch the stunning music video OMG. One of the best ballads! 🔥♥️🔥
Yes! That song is superb!
So Good! I'm glad I broke the Annie Lennox seal with Sweet Dreams in March! There's still so much great music of hers for you to discover and dive in to!
Again Annie is immense. Stevie IS paying the harmonica. Thanks Empress xx

This is one of my favorite Eurythmics songs. That’s Stevie, and the same album this song is from also had a song featuring Aretha.
Annie Lennox has one of the best voices in the world of popular music PERIOD
'Suddenly my heart goes: boom!'
Eurythmics/ Annie Lennox - incredibly talented and unique. Love. 💘
This lady is gonna love this.
Annie is an angel

Eurythmics top 3 songs besides Sweet Dreams: Love Is A Stranger, Here Comes The Rain Again, Don't Ask Me Why. Honorable Mention: Who's That Girl? 😉

React to Grace Jones' My Jamaican Guy, Slave To The Rhythm, Pull Up To The Bumper and I'm Not Perfect.

And react to their live performance of this song at the Nelson Mandela benefit concert in 88 with the killer harmonica player's solo in the middle and end of the song.
Beautiful and only Stevie can play like that
A great Song for a great voice!!! I'm afraid thet didn't request the video but only the audio.
She prefers the audio so the visuals don't distract what she is trying to hear. The videos get in the way for my tastes too...especially if the video is just bizarre and has zero to do with the song.

@@tizianotorcasio6046 The other piece is that the videos for songs often get blocked by TH-cam, and the audio only versions don't.

the Eurythmics were big enough to have Stevie Wonder on harmonica to join Annie's Angelic vocal and Dave's Godlike Guitar/Synths wizardry
Please react to Janet Jackson's Control and Rhythm Nation albums especially What Have You Done For Me Lately, Nasty, When I Think Of You, Let's Wait Awhile, Control, Pleasure Principle, Miss You Much, Rhythm Nation Escapade, Alright, Black Cat, Come Back To Me and Love Will Never Do Without You. And react to Jody Watley's Looking For A New Love, Some Kind Of Lover, Still A Thrill, Most Of All, Real Love and Friends please.
I think that is Stevie Wonder cuz they did a song together one time I think I saw but I'm so old now I can't remember exactly
Dave Stewart also co-wrote Alison Moyet's hit "Is This Love?" which is worth a listen if you want to hear a rare female pop music contralto vocal of the highest level.
Empress, that is the one and only Stevie Wonder on harmonica. For real!!!
The Eurythmics ONLY number 1 single in U.K surprisingly!
Wow! That is surprising ‼
Please react their Here Comes The Rain Again and Thorn In My Side, Miracle of Love, When Tomorrow Comes, You Have Placed A Chill In My Heart and Angel.

You should react to the official music video for this song. It's quite campy. I think you will enjoy it.
I wonder why our beloved Empress doesn't seem to be interested in Eurythmics' videos since all of them are so worthy watching.
@@ingvarjensen1088 Maybe she doesn't want her videos to get blocked.
@@dalee72 Can this happen? She often reacts to videos.
