Album Notes & Community Reviews

Eurythmics’ commercial breakthrough is a cold, impeccably produced synth-pop classic constructed on minimalist electronics and analog sequencers. Annie Lennox's incredibly powerful, soulful vocals provide a stark, deeply passionate contrast to Dave Stewart's mechanical, darkly atmospheric synthesizer arrangements, birthing a highly melodic, mysterious 80s pop staple.
