Annie Lennox is a shapeshifter kinda like David Bowie was. Always evolving, always different and ALWAYS exquisitely artistic and dramatic. She's still doing it, too. Also, 40 years later and this song is just so timeless it's insane. Still sounds fresh in some ways.

Alanis Morissette was in grade school when this song came out. Lol. You picked up on the old school R&B influences, which was very deliberate on their part. Their whole artistic vision was to meld American soul and R&B with the icy, electronic aesthetic of British New Wave/synth pop. It was their winning formula.

The story of how this song was made, it's iconic keyboard/synth hook, is good too. Annie and Dave dated off and on, but remained friends. They were on tour and ran out of money and things were looking like their dreams were ending. They ended the tour early and went their own ways. Annie and Dave stayed in touch and were experimenting with synths and keyboards. Annie showed Dave one part of the hook and Dave immediately came up with the synth bass line to go along with it. It was basically magic at a time when they weren't sure they were ever going to make it.

Their lead off single Would I Lie To You was one of their best rock-soul songs that had a brass section. Sweet Dreams song was featured prominently in movies like Tron:Legacy, X-Men: Apocalypse, and Ready Player One.

I bought two of their records in the 80s, but came back decades later and started appreciating the cool art-rock of the first three albums. So much more than a pop duo.. and their soundtrack to 1984 the movie is one of the best original soundtracks ever done by a "pop band".

The record company didn't want to release this song because it was so dark. Annie wrote the lyric when she thought the Eurythmics were finished. And then 3 other songs from that album started to get some play on MTV, only for American advertisers to freak out, claiming that Annie was a tranny because she dressed in men's suits. She had to produce a f*cking birth certificate to prove she was actually a woman before her music was allowed to be promoted in the Land of the Free. And, yes, you are spot on about the Motown vibe--it's Annie's jam for life.

Wow, what a treat - I wake up on a Saturday morning and get a new reaction video from you guys in my KZbin feed. Great start to the weekend ! Yeah, we've got a crazy little island for musical talent. Even as a Brit living here, it blows my mind how much really good music comes out of our small band of countries. You're right, this is dope AND a weird sounding song, in C# minor, dark and Orwellian, both the music and the lyrics. All the more so for the time it was released, a year before 1984. Ominous. That (sequenced?) bass synth line just kicks in and grabs your attention from the opening bar, lurking under the heavenly but cautionary words. Listen to this through a good sound system, the sub bass is SO low! Nothing remotely like this had been heard, before it came out. Everything about this track was alien, but recognisable and good. Cold hard synths mixed with amazing vocals - Annie's one hell of a singer. And her pronunciation is a little odd to English acclimatised ears, as she's Scottish by birth, hence the this/these similarity. 40 years on, this song still sends a chill down my spine. Just awesome !! Thanks for another great reaction video guys, you had me cracking up with you in the middle section ! Keep up the great work. Love from Britain to Vegas ! 😀

Eurythmics was/is a great Techno Pop/Rock duo that incorporated various elements of Blues and Soul music into their songs, along with daring provocative themes in their lyrics. Their music videos were cutting-edge and futuristic for its time, and were often thought-provoking. Some hit Eurythmics songs/music videos that both of you might want to react to, are “Love Is A Stranger”, “Here Comes The Rain Again”, “Who’s That Girl?” (not the same song that Madonna recorded), “Sexcrime (Nineteen Eighty-Four)”, “Julia”, “Would I Lie To You?”, “It’s Alright (Baby’s Coming Back)”, “Missionary Man”, “When Tomorrow Comes”, “Thorn In My Side”, “The Miracle Of Love”, ”Beethoven (I Love To Listen To)”, “I Need A Man”, “You Have Placed A Chill In My Heart”, “King And Queen Of America”, “Revival”, “Angel”, “17 Again”, “I Saved The World Today”, and “I’ve Got A Life”. There is a special performance of their song “This City Never Sleeps” that was on a home video compilation in 1983 that the both of you really need to react to. The song was performed “unplugged”, with Dave Stewart playing slide guitar on a Dobro guitar, and an African-British gospel choir singing along. That performance is available for viewing here on KZbin.

And as children do it perked up and listened cuz it understood there was something important about the human condition here. :p I'm glad you know this cuz Id have been like "how could you not have heard this?"

The video was stunning....she was gorgeous and gender bending. I was 10 yrs old when this came out and I didn't know what Annie Lennox was, but she was slaying the vocals and and then she was freaking fabulous with the red hair and the suit!

'Little Bird' by Annie Lennox would be a great reaction/review. Doesn't get much airtime and similarly haunting as 'Sweet Dreams' but a bit more uplifting as it progresses. Great tune.

Agree the globes are awesome and true works art. The art on those is truly stunning. Annie Lennox is awesome as well. Her solo work is phenomenal.

It is crazy how many bands particularly, from each era and decade, are British! Annie Lennox has some great solo stuff too 👍

Annie Lennox, along with Elton John, both studied music at the Royal Academy of music in Marylebone,London. I know this because I am a tour bus driver and enjoy playing that part of the commentary.

Hands down one of the best songs from the '80s. Annie Lennox is a vocal powerhouse. I bet you guys would enjoy Pink's song "Get the Party Started (Sweet Dreams Remix)" featuring Redman. It samples this song.

As much as I loved the Eurythmics, Annie Lennox's solo career was even better. She had a very bluesy sound in several of her solo songs

Awesome video! This brings me back to being a freshman in high school and a big rock and metal listener and yet it was music like this that always stood out to me. This song is about the reality of the underbelly of humanity. How we can come to accept awful things in pursuit of our own dreams. A cautionary tale.

Annie's vocals are incredible. Dive into her solo stuff. 👍🏽 I tuned into her over the pandemic and she played for us live, in her home, at her piano, with audience participation, absolutely fabulous!! When this song dropped... mind-blown!! Lol...Alanis was super young. 😂

Absolutely a warning, and a dark song. I feel like you guys almost need a separate channel where you analyse the videos too. I remember being absolutely in love with the fierce image of Annie Lennox as a young teen in the 80s!

You mentioned Aretha, she did a duet with her. Sisters are doing it for themselves. My favorites are Would I lie to you and Who's that girl. She went on to have a huge solo career with some great songs
