"Would I Lie To You" is a MUST; her vocals are stunning on this one. "Here Comes The Rain Again" is also fabulous, and their 2nd highest chart topper after Sweet Dreams. Their hits are definitely an integral part of the soundtracks that define the mid 80's!
It's been said in previous comments but, here it is again... If you want to see her rock the heck out of a song check out "Would I Lie To You? That sound rocks so freaking hard still 37 years later. And it's catchy as all get out....
The Eurythmics were definitely the high water mark of the first artists on MTV- the songs were great, and the videos were groundbreaking. "Here Comes The Rain Again", "Love Is A Stranger", "Sweet Dreams", "Would I Lie To You?", "Right By Your Side", "There Must Be An Angel (Playing With My Heart)", "Who's That Girl?", "This City Never Sleeps" (if you want something REALLY moody). Annie Lennox's voice and Dave Stewart's arrangements and guitar playing were way ahead of the curve compared to other British new wave bands at the time. And if you really want to hear a battle of the divas, check out the duet Annie Lennox did with Aretha Franklin (called, fittingly enough, "Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves").
@@katherinebosse5706 "Why" is a masterpiece and Annie is one of the great wonders of the world. Supremely talented, stunningly beautiful, ferocious and tender. In short, a goddess.
The backing singer Joniece Jamison sang with The Eurythmics on several occasions. The harmonica player is Jimmy Zavala also known as Jimmy Z, he played harmonica with several top bands.
You would enjoy listening to “Walking on Broken Glass” as well as “Honestly”. These two really emphasize Annie’s beautiful voice and are two of my favorites. Love you both and I look forward to seeing which songs you chose to react to and listening as your musical knowledge grows. 😃👍🏼
I gotta put in a good word for "Would I Lie To You". Like I said in a separate comment, you've just got to wonder at that voice coming out of a wee Lassie frae Aberdeen Scotland (Not Washington state where Kurt Cobain was from). I was raised in Ayrshire on the west coast, Aberdeen is over on the east coast of the North Sea - from where we lived I could ride my bike to the sea shore and on the (rare) clear day your could see the Mull of Kintyre that Paul McCartney sang about.
Please please PLEASE consider doing a vid on Grace Jones. She's one of Annie's big inspirations (along with David Bowie), and her live rendition of Sting's "Demolition Man" (which was written for her) is the STUFF. OF. LEGENDS. She is brilliant and ballsy and bizarre, and more beautiful than 90% of the women I've ever seen. Trust me, you won't regret it.
Annie Lennox is a treasure, and a powerhouse. After leaving Dave Stewart she went on to an even better solo career, including "Why", her cover of the Bob Marley classic "Waiting in Vain", and, with another heavy harmonica riff, "It's a Thin Line Between Love and Hate", which might be the definitive version of the song, originally recorded by the R&B group The Persuaders in 1971 and then by the English group, The Pretenders, featuring Chrissie Hynde, in the Eighties.
Of course, this is a Eurythmics song, and despite Annie Lennox's diva performances, the importance of Dave Stewart to the result sound cannot be overstated.
Joniece Jamison is the lady singing backup. Annie and Al Green have a song together called "Put a Little Love In Your Heart". You should also check out "Money Can't Buy It", "Walking On Broken Glass", and her duet with "Aretha Franklin "Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves". Aretha Franklin singing "I Ain't Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)" just might blow your mind. I recently heard Faith Evans sing it and was reminded of how much my mom and aunts loved the song.
"Annie and Al Green have a song together called "Put a Little Love In Your Heart". " Anyone who has seen Scrooged has heard this in the end credits. Great song and even better film.
@@stevegunter3838 Yes, and I added it to a list of Christmas songs that I sent. They show clips from the movie and I think there are snowflakes falling on or behind Annie and Al. I remember hearing that she was pregnant at the time and filmed her portion of the video in the UK, while Al was in the US.
Was wondering when you'd get back to some Annie Lennox! This was a fierce song (and it used stop-motion animation for the video much like Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer), like most Eurythmics' stuff. "Love is a Stranger" is a great song, as is "Here Comes the Rain Again". Annie Lennox also had some awesome solo hits... "Little Bird" has a badass riff. Actually, I would recommend "Little Bird" for your next one... the video is as fierce as it comes, and she did it when she was pregnant with her second child. There is a zero percent chance you won't go nuts for it.
Little Bird is a GREAT tune! The need to watch both the official video (funny as all hell) as well as her closing ceremony performance at the London Olympics - just incredible!
Try doing 'why' by Annie Lennox, so emotional a totally different side to her, or anything she has done just an amazing voice. And with Dave Stewart(now a really well known producer) in the eurythmics great together. Even back to really early stuff in the 80s with the Tourists Annie's voice has always shone in any genre.
There must be an Angel is a MUST for her amazing vocal skills. (Not to mention a VERY famous guest Harmonica player) And for a Christmas Annie... try 'Put a little love in your heart- With Al Green ❤🎵❤
Annie Lennox is from Aberdeen,Scotland and you're right this is a banger. Made in Europe but with a great southern states of America vibe. Probably my favourite Eurythmics track ever.
Jordan - every single time I hear Sunglasses at Night on my radio station now - I think of you. I'm very proud that one of OUR Canadian singers has got you this shook. Missionary Man is one of my favorite Annie songs. Please check out There Must Be an Angel - as well as her cover of Whiter Shade of Pale. I would also like to request Blondie - One Way or Another. Thank you :)
Other eurythmics songs I love includes thorn in my side, when tomorrow comes, would I lie to you, sisters are doing it for themselves ( a duet with Aretha Franklin) , here comes the rain again love is a stranger. Annie Lennox also had some awesome solo songs. Walking on broken glass and little bird are two of my favorites.
Yes, powerful song! Watch her solo live version at the Arista 25th Anniversary tribute. Search Annie Lennox Why live 2000 on CARMSFAV channel. Be prepared to be wowed!!!
Your next Eurythmics song MUST be "Would I Lie to You?" for a VERY specific reason. I won't spoil it for you, but TRUST me…you will *not* be disappointed.
Love how you love the harmonica on this tune. Huge on harmonica in any song. I was so depressed until I saw your video -your guys reaction to this song really made my day!! Thank you Vince
So many to choose from! "I Need a Man" is a cheeky little tune from them. Annie Lennox is a fascinating person and an incredible humanitarian. You may also like "Here Comes the Rain Again" and "Who's That Girl".
You two are the best! Thank you so much for sharing music from all different decades. You are storytellers keeping the songs alive. I'm an 80's kid, so I love hearing your excitement and appreciation of the artists. It makes me remember the first time I listened to the albums!! Another 80's woman is Allison Moyet - the band Yaz (or Yazzoo in Europe). I think you will LOVE her sound!!! Album - Upstairs at Eric. Really any song will do. Situation, Don't Go, Didn't I Bring Your Love down or Midnight (not super popular, but my favorite). Wishing you all the best & more!!!
Jimmy Zavala on harmonica and the killer backup singer is Janiece Jamison. Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart were romantically linked for several years … they made some great music together too 😁
The Ultimate version of *Why* is her live performance at the Arista Records 25th Anniversary Tribute. You will not be the same after seeing this! th-cam.com/video/Og-_n0R9_dI/w-d-xo.html
24 top forty singles, including 1 number one, and 7 top ten albums, 2 number ones, in the UK. Powerhouse duo that could do anything and do it well. Not a single blemish in their catalogue after their first so-so album.
Yes ✨💕🤘🏼 I love all things Eurythmics and Annie Lennox! At some point you guys absolutely have to watch her live Grammy performance, she is still rocking it today with that Same bad ass attitude that we all love so much…. And guys, for some really great harmonica you’ve got to check out BLUES TRAVELER, John Popper is amazing, especially live 🌌💙
I agree with everything you said, but especially about John Popper. "100 Years" is an incredible song with great harmonica that never got the attention it deserved.
Jimmy Zavala on harmonica and Joniece Jamison on back-up vocals. "Missionary Man" earned Eurythmics a 1986 Grammy Award for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal.[1] The video received heavy airplay on MTV and received five nominations at the 1987 MTV Video Music Awards.
Eurythmics - "There Must Be an Angel (Playing with my Heart) is a must reaction. Much different features of Annie Lennox voice. You wouldn't call it a "Banger" because it is not hard. It's energetic throughout but it is much softer and melodic and includes an incredible harmonica solo by Stevie Wonder near the end. Songs like Missionary Man feature her lower register. "There Must Be an Angel" features her entire range. The fact that she appears angelic, in the video, complete with Angels wings, is almost a complete opposite of Missonary Man and just exhibits the range the Eurythmics could achieve. After seeing "There Must Be an Angel" you'll still be wondering who Annie Lennox is because you can't put her in a convenient box. She does a great cover of Bob Marley's - "Waiting In Vain" also under her name, not the Eurythmics thou. "There Must Be an Angel" was a chart topper, #1 in many countries, in on heavy rotation on MTV.
Amber, Would I Lie to You, there you go girl. They were so good.in concert. Annie Lennox is just so talented, she owns her look and style. Thanks for this one, made me smile.
Guys!! Just found you today!! I’ve been binge-ing for hours, going back to the beginning. I’ll be 56 next week and I’m so glad to see other people experiencing this music for the first time. Question though, after all of these songs, which ones do you go and listen to?
Happy Early Birthday to you! I was the same way when I found Jordan and Amber! I had to watch all their reactions! I check in everyday to see the new reactions! Love RSR! ♥️
Yes! The live version with only her at the piano will stun you! She performed it at the 25th Anniversary Tribute to Arista Records and it's founder, Clive Davis! Search Annie Lennox Why live 2000 on CARMSFAV channel.
Annie Lennox has always been, in my opinion, and underrated front woman. Although she was in a band but without her the Eurhythmics do not exist! You should also check out Here Comes the Rain Again
By the way, Annie's is the last voice you hear in Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. She sings the final closing credit song, playing Galadriel singing her farewell to Middle Earth. It still makes me cry like a baby. :)
Annie is amazing! Suggestion for Female Friday: You must check out Siouxsie and The Banshees! This band was originally associated with the punk movement but evolved into one of the most influential bands of the post-punk era. Siouxsie Sue, the lead singer, is mesmerizing, dynamic, and has an amazing voice. I recommend starting with Cities in Dust. It's a song about the city of Pompeii that was destroyed when Mt. Vesuvius erupted, engulfing it in ash and flame. I think you will find it a departure from anything you've listened to before.
LOVE Annie!! My favorite song by her is "Into the West"...the closing song in "Lord of the Rings Return of the King" She has such a beautiful voice! Here's a new on for you to add to your list...THE SPOON LADY! th-cam.com/video/_nLmM9kcBKs/w-d-xo.html
you gotta do the official music video for Eurythmics "Would I Lie to You?" It's another banger with great guitar work from Dave, a real showcase of Annie's vocal talents, pounding drums, and HORNS featured prominently. AND -- it's a song all about female-empowerment, perfect for Female Fridays!
Great choice from one of my favourites of all time. Saw her in New Zealand's Sweetwaters Festival around 1982. She was magically beautiful and her band the Eurythmics led by Dave Stewart powerful.
This is really a BANGER!! Glad y’all listened to this. Her voice is just amazing. There isn’t anything Annie can’t do vocally imo. ( harmonica?? Pls pls do INXS “ suicide blonde”!!!!!
You want to see her strut? You've GOT to watch Would I Lie to You? That's a jam. Here Comes the Rain Again, Who's that Girl, Love is a Stranger, Don't Ask Me Why. Why and her version of I Put a Spell on You are some of her solo hits. The woman is FIERCE!!! That was a bunch of stop-motion camera movements to make it very quirky cool. Peter Gabriel's Sledghammer is another one that uses stop-motion and it's awesome!
Heck yeah!!!! So glad you finally got to this one!! It's a total JAM!!!!! Now you need to give a listen to her singing "There Must Be An Angel(Messing With My Heart)! Another very different vibe and it will blow you away!!
The Eurythmics have a fantastic catalogue of music. I need a man, Put the blame on me, Thorn in my side, You have placed a chill in my heart are just a few of their best. I love watching you guys, it's always so much fun.
For Female Friday: Ronnie Spector - ‘Be My Baby’ Toni Braxton - ‘Un-Break My Heart’ Sugarland (Jennifer Nettles) - ‘Stay’ Roberta Flack - ‘First Time Ever I Saw Your Face’ Other notables: Christopher Cross - ‘Sailing,’ Kayne Brown - ‘Worship You,’ Kool and The Gang - ‘Celebration,’ Dan Fogelberg - ‘Same Old Lang Syne’ Luther Vandross - ‘Dance With My Father’
For a banging tune with super strong vocals Annie Lennox and Aretha Franklin "Sister are doing it for them selves" for some stunning haunting vocals from Annie "In to the west" from Return of the King

Yep. I feel that Here Comes The Rain Again is their best song
Agreed 1000%
Two of my favorites by Eurythmics. Also"Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves" w/Aretha Franklin
Ohhhhhh yes!
@@jamesmarschalk5564 That's my favorite as well.
The duet Annie Lennox does with Aretha Franklin, Sisters are Doing It For Themselves is a powerhouse vocal .
It's been said in previous comments but, here it is again...
If you want to see her rock the heck out of a song check out "Would I Lie To You?
That sound rocks so freaking hard still 37 years later. And it's catchy as all get out....
There are horns in “Would I Lie to You” as well.
Would I Lie To You is the best of all the great Eurythmics tunes in my book. 100% killer.
They ruled the 80’s
This. All. DAY!!! My FAVORITE Eurythmics song!
Yes x1000!
The Eurythmics were definitely the high water mark of the first artists on MTV- the songs were great, and the videos were groundbreaking.
"Here Comes The Rain Again", "Love Is A Stranger", "Sweet Dreams", "Would I Lie To You?", "Right By Your Side", "There Must Be An Angel (Playing With My Heart)", "Who's That Girl?", "This City Never Sleeps" (if you want something REALLY moody). Annie Lennox's voice and Dave Stewart's arrangements and guitar playing were way ahead of the curve compared to other British new wave bands at the time.

Sisters are doing it for Themselves is a MUST!
@@breebree9319 another vote for this song. Rocking song with a message.
Don't forget "Thorn in My Side."
Sisters band was Tom Petty’s Heartbreakers.
Hey ! You forgot to mention "It's alright, Baby's coming back"
Annies' duet with David Bowie doing Under Pressure as a tribute to Freddie is absolutely amazing.
This: th-cam.com/video/fCP2-Bfhy04/w-d-xo.html
Yes! One of my favorite performances 👍
Annie is to die for. She is FABULOUS, and yes, she knows it.
She has some great solo songs. Why & Walking on Broken Glass are two good ones.
“Why” is stunning!! ❤️🔥
@@katherinebosse5706 "Why" is a masterpiece and Annie is one of the great wonders of the world. Supremely talented, stunningly beautiful, ferocious and tender. In short, a goddess.
@@grannysgonerabid7425 Wow, you nailed it!!
Her live performance of *Why* at the 25th Arista label tribute is STUNNING! Just search Annie Lennox Why Live 2000, and prepare to stop breathing!
Both are great, but Why is simply stunning.
The backing singer Joniece Jamison sang with The Eurythmics on several occasions. The harmonica player is Jimmy Zavala also known as Jimmy Z, he played harmonica with several top bands.
He doesn't get enough credit.
You would enjoy listening to
“Walking on Broken Glass” as well as “Honestly”. These two really emphasize Annie’s beautiful voice and are two of my favorites.
Love you both and I look forward to seeing which songs you chose to react to and listening as your musical knowledge grows. 😃👍🏼
I gotta put in a good word for "Would I Lie To You".

"Must Be Talking to an Angel" also features the flexibility of Anne Lennox voice in a much different way than most Eurythmics songs.
'Honestly' is one of my all-time favorites by Annie
The video for Walking on Broken Glass is really entertaining. It's got Hugh Laurie and John Malkovich in it!
yes!!!
Please please PLEASE consider doing a vid on Grace Jones. She's one of Annie's big inspirations (along with David Bowie), and her live rendition of Sting's "Demolition Man" (which was written for her) is the STUFF. OF. LEGENDS. She is brilliant and ballsy and bizarre, and more beautiful than 90% of the women I've ever seen. Trust me, you won't regret it.
Agreed. She's another one of those amazing women from not-so-far back then who don't get enough exposure. Everything you said and more.
Anne has cited Grace Jones as one of her idols.
YAAAASSSS! I was just thinking they need some Grace Jones when your comment popped up!
"I Need A Man" & "La Vie En Rose" are my absolute FAVORITES!
"Slave to the Rhythm", "Love is the Drug", and many others deserve attention.
Jones' "Walking In The Rain" live performance & "Private Life" are absolute musts.
"Would I Lie To You" is a great song, too!! Highly recommended
YES!!!
Annie Lennox is a treasure, and a powerhouse. After leaving Dave Stewart she went on to an even better solo career, including "Why", her cover of the Bob Marley classic "Waiting in Vain", and, with another heavy harmonica riff, "It's a Thin Line Between Love and Hate", which might be the definitive version of the song, originally recorded by the R&B group The Persuaders in 1971 and then by the English group, The Pretenders, featuring Chrissie Hynde, in the Eighties.
I wouldn't say Better... incredible... but not better!!!
Of course, this is a Eurythmics song, and despite Annie Lennox's diva performances, the importance of Dave Stewart to the result sound cannot be overstated.
Agreed!
Saw them around ‘87 she was fantastic and he played about 8 different guitars through the concert … just class!
She looks her most stunning in the 'Thorn in my side' video, and the song is fantastic.
Annie's "Would I Lie To You?" is one of the best rockers...among all artists. If you don't start bouncing to this song, you are six-feet under.
“Would I Lie To You”
The ultimate Eurythmics BANGER!
Well worth a listen guys
Joniece Jamison is the lady singing backup.
Annie and Al Green have a song together called "Put a Little Love In Your Heart".
You should also check out "Money Can't Buy It", "Walking On Broken Glass", and her duet with "Aretha Franklin "Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves". Aretha Franklin singing "I Ain't Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)" just might blow your mind. I recently heard Faith Evans sing it and was reminded of how much my mom and aunts loved the song.
And if I'm not mistaken, the video has a Christmas theme to it. Seems like a great time to react to that one!
"Annie and Al Green have a song together called "Put a Little Love In Your Heart". "
Anyone who has seen Scrooged has heard this in the end credits.
Great song and even better film.
It's a Cover of a 60s or 70s song..
@@stevegunter3838
Yes, and I added it to a list of Christmas songs that I sent.
They show clips from the movie and I think there are snowflakes falling on or behind Annie and Al.
I remember hearing that she was pregnant at the time and filmed her portion of the video in the UK, while Al was in the US.
"Put A Little Love In Your Heart" with Al Green and "Sisters Are Doin’ It For Themselves" with Aretha Franklin are two great Annie Lennox duets.
Amber ... the Aretha Franklin duet is a must for one of your Female Fridays!
Yes she knows it but is no way big headed about it.
"Walking On Broken Glass" by Annie Lennox would set you back on your seats. Hit it next time!
Even if for just the production value alone on the official video.
BEST song ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AMAZING song! Great choice!
She and Aretha Franklin doing Sisters Are Doing it for Themselves is incredible.

Little Bird is a GREAT tune! The need to watch both the official video (funny as all hell) as well as her closing ceremony performance at the London Olympics - just incredible!
Stop motion for music videos was certainly in vogue in this era.
Little Bird and Love is a Stranger get my vote foe her best tracks.
@@juniorjohnson9509 I LOVE that performance! She filled the whole damn stadium all by herself.
Annie makes me happy! Her voice is one of the most stunning.
I have to reiterate what others have said: listen to "Why" by Annie. It has *all* the feels. I can't hear it without crying.
And "Dark Road", all the poignancy of Why but so little the airplay
"There must be an angel" is a stunning vocal from Annie (and a great arrangment from Dave)
Not forgetting the harmonica from Stevie Wonder :)
@@januzzell8631 the harmonica is amazing in that song.
Try doing 'why' by Annie Lennox, so emotional a totally different side to her, or anything she has done just an amazing voice. And with Dave Stewart(now a really well known producer) in the eurythmics great together. Even back to really early stuff in the 80s with the Tourists Annie's voice has always shone in any genre.
I love Here Comes the Rain.
No More I Love You's is amazing, too
You two are a blast to watch. I really enjoy watching you listen to songs!!!
There must be an Angel is a MUST for her amazing vocal skills. (Not to mention a VERY famous guest Harmonica player) And for a Christmas Annie... try 'Put a little love in your heart- With Al Green ❤🎵❤
Yes!
Eurythmics OWNED the 80's. This song slaps, like they all do.
This is one of the best songs. 💕 So much soul behind her voice.
There Must Be An Angel ... and the STEVIE WONDER on harmonica is just....PERFECT
Love this and love the reaction. Try ‘There must be an angel’ . Her vocals on that track will blow you away. X
The harmonica is played by Stevie Wonder.
Annie Lennox is from Aberdeen,Scotland and you're right this is a banger. Made in Europe but with a great southern states of America vibe. Probably my favourite Eurythmics track ever.
Love it! Another 'must-listen' song from them is "Would I Lie To You?"
Would I Lie To You. Her voice is nuts in that song.

OMG! I thought I was the only one who thinks of Jordan when Sunglasses at Night plays!

You have good taste.
I haven't heard that song in ages. It sure held up well. Sounds a fresh as it did almost four decades ago!
Other eurythmics songs I love includes thorn in my side, when tomorrow comes, would I lie to you, sisters are doing it for themselves ( a duet with Aretha Franklin) , here comes the rain again love is a stranger. Annie Lennox also had some awesome solo songs. Walking on broken glass and little bird are two of my favorites.
I'm 70 and you made me dig though my old music to add to my play list. As good today as when I was a kid.
You really need to hear her song "Why" because it is stunning.
I second that!

Happy Early Birthday to you!
I was the same way when I found Jordan and Amber! I had to watch all their reactions!
I check in everyday to see the new reactions!
Love RSR! ♥️
This is by far my favorite Eurythmics song. It is awesome.
"Why" is another great Annie Lennox song.
Such a powerful song!
Yes! The live version with only her at the piano will stun you! She performed it at the 25th Anniversary Tribute to Arista Records and it's founder, Clive Davis! Search Annie Lennox Why live 2000 on CARMSFAV channel.

Would I Lie To You, Here Comes The Rain, Walking On Broken Glass...all so great! Loved Annie back in the day!
Wow! What a voice!!!🤘🔥
Here Comes the Rain Again & Would i Lie to You are both great songs by the Eurythmics
She should also be considered for the Christmas ff with her rendition of “Winter Wonderland “.
My favourite version of that song!
Or her version of God rest ye merry gentlemen.
She is one of the greatest artists of all time. Just love and admire her.
Annie Lennox has always been, in my opinion, and underrated front woman. Although she was in a band but without her the Eurhythmics do not exist! You should also check out Here Comes the Rain Again
Her cover of the Beatles Don't Let Me Down ....incredible!!!
By the way, Annie's is the last voice you hear in Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. She sings the final closing credit song, playing Galadriel singing her farewell to Middle Earth. It still makes me cry like a baby. :)
Her cover of Waiting in Vain is so good. Just blows me away.
Annie is amazing! Suggestion for Female Friday: You must check out Siouxsie and The Banshees! This band was originally associated with the punk movement but evolved into one of the most influential bands of the post-punk era. Siouxsie Sue, the lead singer, is mesmerizing, dynamic, and has an amazing voice. I recommend starting with Cities in Dust. It's a song about the city of Pompeii that was destroyed when Mt. Vesuvius erupted, engulfing it in ash and flame. I think you will find it a departure from anything you've listened to before.
I was born in 1951 and all the music from the 60-90's are great!
LOVE Annie!! My favorite song by her is "Into the West"...the closing song in "Lord of the Rings Return of the King" She has such a beautiful voice!
Here's a new on for you to add to your list...THE SPOON LADY! th-cam.com/video/_nLmM9kcBKs/w-d-xo.html
Into The West is a must listen. Very good stuff and her voice is perfect for the song.
"Would I Lie to You"...not only kick ass Annie Lennox singing but that horn section!!!! "Walking on Broken Glass" too.
You absolutely have to do Annie Lennox' "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" for one of your Christmas songs. When you do, watch the official video.
Savage..amazing song..ohh and Downtown lights her cover -Enjoy.
you gotta do the official music video for Eurythmics "Would I Lie to You?" It's another banger with great guitar work from Dave, a real showcase of Annie's vocal talents, pounding drums, and HORNS featured prominently. AND -- it's a song all about female-empowerment, perfect for Female Fridays!
still; to this day; those eyes...I'm captivated every time, every song......a good Scot woman
I love some of Annie's slower songs, they really show off the beauty of her voice, Cold, Why, The Gift
Great choices ! all off the diva album which is an amazing piece of work, love the gift 🎁
Annie delivers the COOL vocals, Helen Terry delivers those RED HOT backup wails (you can also hear her behind Culture Club).
If you want to hear Annie Lennox at her best listen to “Who’s That Girl” and “I Need a Man”. You’ll be blown away!
Great choice from one of my favourites of all time. Saw her in New Zealand's Sweetwaters Festival around 1982. She was magically beautiful and her band the Eurythmics led by Dave Stewart powerful.
This is really a BANGER!! Glad y’all listened to this. Her voice is just amazing. There isn’t anything Annie can’t do vocally imo. ( harmonica?? Pls pls do INXS “ suicide blonde”!!!!!
You want to see her strut? You've GOT to watch Would I Lie to You? That's a jam.
Here Comes the Rain Again, Who's that Girl, Love is a Stranger, Don't Ask Me Why.
Why and her version of I Put a Spell on You are some of her solo hits. The woman is FIERCE!!! That was a bunch of stop-motion camera movements to make it very quirky cool. Peter Gabriel's Sledghammer is another one that uses stop-motion and it's awesome!
Female Fridays - yet to play CHRISSIE HYNDE of the original PRETENDERS - who is in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame - and is an icon.........?????/
Yesss! I think they would love “Brass in Pocket”
Can you believe Pat Benetar is not in the R & R Hall of Fame?
That harmonica was wicked and Joniece came through with those flamethrower vocals!!! That STILL bangs hard in 2021!!!
Claim your "here within an hour" ticket here 😏
Stop trolling these lovely people's videos for likes.
"Sisters are doin' it for themselves" ft. Aretha Franklin is another great song.
Heck yeah!!!! So glad you finally got to this one!! It's a total JAM!!!!! Now you need to give a listen to her singing "There Must Be An Angel(Messing With My Heart)! Another very different vibe and it will blow you away!!
I've heard this song a million times, but, your reaction made me smile! You did it! 😁
My favorite is "Would I Lie to You". Love your reaction.
The Eurythmics have a fantastic catalogue of music. I need a man, Put the blame on me, Thorn in my side, You have placed a chill in my heart are just a few of their best.
I love watching you guys, it's always so much fun.
For Female Friday:
Ronnie Spector - ‘Be My Baby’

Annie Lennox's performance of "Why" on MTV unplugged is legendary.
For a banging tune with super strong vocals Annie Lennox and Aretha Franklin "Sister are doing it for them selves" for some stunning haunting vocals from Annie "In to the west" from Return of the King
