      I just heard this song playing over the music speakers at a Leaf Tea Coffee shop. Man, my friend's sister and her friends used to listen to music in the back porch and I hung around my friend Ernie just to gaze at his sister in awe and amaze. I was 12 years old when this song was released. The 80's and 90's were the greatest.

Reminds me of my friend Ernie's sister Sandra. She used to play mix tapes on her little one speaker tape player. The memories. Praise the Lord for Shazam.

    What makes this one of the best songs ever? I'm glad you asked! 1. The haunting keyboard arrangement is hypnotizing. 2. The pulsing beat is subtle, but perfect. It adds, but doesn't distract. 3. Annie's icy cool, emotional vocals help create a mystique and enchantment. 4. The production has held up; they didn't fall into many of the 80s production traps that now sound dated. 5. And, perhaps most importantly, Annie's biting, acerbic dissection of love. She refused to play the role expected of women in music where they long for love or are lost without it or are complete with it. Nope! Not Annie! If you're still reading, you're truly a fan! 😄

      If Blondie's Debbie Harry was the first New Wave Aphrodite then Annie Lennox was the second. She showed the way with "Sweet Dreams," though that had some Marlene Dietrich moves. " Love is a Stranger" Annie just let's all her sexy, insane introspection out and shows the world her dazzling eyes and devastating beauty. I don't think this song could have been written without their personal experience of romantic love. God bless Annie and Dave.

      Yes, it's production quality that has never been equaled, and probably never will be. Even with today's technology and auto-tune etc... I think it would be very difficult to re-create the same atmosphere, and very unlikely the singing voice. Only Ultravox could get the same quality and lushness out of synths/rhythm boxes/FX etc...

I sometimes listen to this song with the bass cranked all the way down or turned up to where I can baaarely feel the woofer vibrate. Another example, listen to Thorn in my side with the bass turned down then again turned up. I can't think of any other band where a significant number of their songs sound good with two different bass levels...

    To me the greatest aspect of all the Annie Lennox videos and songs is that no two are the same. Each one stands on its own as a masterpiece in my non-musical opinion. I don't claim to have a great ear for music but if anyone says I don't like the Eurythmics or more specifically Annie Lennox then you're just not listening to the full body of work. She re-creates herself with every song and every note. She is amazing in my opinion. Her and Stevie Nicks have probably saved my life more than once. Amazing women, amazing voices, amazing messages!

Everything was already there: electronica, "new wave", progRock, disco, metal, etc. People are saying 80's 80's 80's because it's kewl to say. But take a long look -or listen I should say- to 70's music talent and you'll be blown away. I love the 80's stuff too, of course.

      Seems there is no more love but only lust. Because it is based on sense gratification, therefore there is love between a boy and girl, and as soon as there is a little discrepancy, there is divorce. They are separated. Because the whole principle was on the basis of lust. So there is no love.
