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.

I've always wondered why she didn't pursue more acting work, she'd SLAY any role given to her.

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! 😄

Another example, listen to Thorn in my side with the bass turned down then again turned up.

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!

i have ear all those songs since m 10 years in 1983 and listen it today not like the stinkt bull shit musics of today ,made on the corner of a table with in 10 minutes without any harmony,any inteligence,any color,any texture,any chord progression ...just make me vomit...

A true masterpiece of the 80's and obviously one of their best songs if it's not THE BEST. The music is hypnotic and sublime, the video is dark, intense and twisted and Annie Lennox is sultry and at her best both vocally and aesthetically

Dave was so ahead of his time in videos making He's a genius Bet they took the idea of the Matrix agents from this video

This is such an intriguing video. It's a masterpiece. A work of art. It goes perfectly with the song. Such a haunting song that could only be mastered by Annie Lennox herself♥

1982. This song stills packs the dance floor late night on '80s nights in 2015...

Eurythmics were big as hell in 1982 1983 1984 Best time of my life i was around 18y old A pop music masterpiece, is all I have to say. The 1980's were a golden age for pop art.

What a chameleon Annie Lennox was then. Just as mesmerizing to watch as she is to listen to.

my teenage years were spent listening to this incredible woman sing, now in my 50's and i still cant get enough of her vocals. She was with out doubt the most talented performer of her time. The most beautiful woman i'd ever seen growing up.

My pre teen years were spent listening to the Eurythmics, I saved my money for their cassette albums. A female teacher even recorded an album for me as I designed a record cover in a class project. Xx

Annie Lennox is a natural beauty without makeup

Such a magnificent arrangement of traditional and modern instrumentation (e.g. tremelo), coupled with Annie's sweet, haunting voice. Transports me every time I hear it. It's 2022 but in listening to it I'm tripping back 40 years, when I first heard this brilliant tune in Germany.

I like listening to this song all the time because sometimes I can remember it in my head by whistling every day at work 😊

I'm always amazed at HOW different Annie Lennox looks in her various outfits during the course of the video.

The only place I remember this song was actually on one of the very first episodes of Beavis and Butthead, and they absolutely destroyed this video/song (made fun of it). The past 17 years though I have been living in Athens, listening to the radio more often than not and visiting clubs enough, and the only place I have heard this is here. So this song has been forgotten by the media and popular culture. What the world's media and pop culture never seem to forget though is their anti-trump fascism (cause fascism is exactly that: narrow mindedness until the point of stupidity). What did you expect from a world that is so stubborn it refuses to see Trump's accomplishments, and the one's he has are credited to anyone/anything but Trump???

I remember when this video hit Mtv; I had already seen the Sweet Dreams video and hadn't fully recovered from that trauma when this was aired. My 15yo self suddenly became smitten with Annie in the blonde wig. However I didn't quite feel naughty enough for her in the brunette wig. Still love the song!

I grew up with this song and I still love it. '80's s songs were awesome.

She is what a woman would envisage their ideal selves to be. Fierce, bold and beautiful. What a legacy to this world! Love you forever Annie X

@@samd1405 The "controversy" stemmed from a silly overreaction from MTV. When they aired it, it was oddly, being shown on a "live" stream to TV and a second screen that was played slightly ahead of the first video for the editing department. The editors saw the shot of her yanking off her wig and ridiculously, thought she was a male crossdresser! So they shut down the broadcast! That's why US viewers were outraged that the footage was cut. In Europe, it got a different reception and this was voted the best music video of 1982.

I love that KZread keeps giving me this to watch. It’s bloody clever and makes me chuckle every time

2020. She's still perfect....and Dave provides the perfect melodies for her supernatural voice
