    Tom Petty said she was the sweetest person. When his house burned to the ground, she had a new wardrobe for his family sent to them, and they weren't that close.
    Not like he didn't have money to by a new wardrobe. But he said when they went to a hotel, he was barefooted, and it was a nice gesture.

      They were both genuinely friendly and lovely human beings.

    I was a sophomore in high school when this album came out. It confused me becasue I wasn't supposed to like it; I was a rocker, man! But like it I did. Also, Annie Lennox had (and has) such an unusual look, I wasn't sure if I was attracted or repulsed by her. After all these ytears, I've concluded that I was dumb to be confused. Definitely attraction. She is amazing, and Dave can play practically every instrument known to Man. Dream Team Supreme.

    The Eurythmics was one of the best bands in the 80's without much competition really.
    Obviously the 80's had a lot to offer with a ton of amazing bands, but there was only one Eurythmics, Yazoo came close and so did Erasure but Dave and Annie were the King and Queen of synth pop.
    Annie has indeed the most amazing eyes, and she oozed sex-appeal.
    You really should check out a lot more of their music, they will blow you away.
    PS. Dave Steward and Annie Lennox were The Eurythmics, no need for their names so to speak, Eurythmics is them, they are Eurythmics :)

    The incomparable Annie Lennox... no one has her voice. She really liked to change up her appearance too -- she has a new look in every video. Just love her.

    This is an 80's pop song and the music videos where in their humble beginnings so the images had no relations whatsoever with the music. Maybe it was perceived as an avant-garde short film but, on the other hand, the song isn't the most sensical.....although it has that "something" that makes it a good song

    I remember seeing this video for the very first time. To a 14 year old hick from the sticks, Annie Lennox was like some kind of exotic bird or tropical butterfly that intrigued and alarmed me at the same time. She still has that same effect on me thirty-some years later! Incredible singer, lady, human being!

    Annie and Dave were not only musician/performers but also visual artists. It meant that their creations were multi layered and with hidden messages in both lyrics and visual representation. Their lyrics were poetry their video clips performance.
