EURYTHMICS SWEET DREAMS ARE MADE OF THIS REACTION

[@sandiadams9133]

I believe Annie did the background vocals also...

[@aw072]

I think so too.

[@stevenkarner6872]

Yes she did. That is all Annie. Dave Stewart did the production and arrangement. That is her in the the wig in the cello scene. She is gorgeous and talented.

[@coolvoice7]

You’re spot on👍👍

[@mommabierman5168]

Ditto - Annie did background vocals too. What a voice - very recognizable.

[@stuartwhelan3258]

She did indeed

[@laurasarmas]

She’s got to be the top ten best women voices in music. Love ❤️ her!!

[@edragonwhoniverse7625]

Top Ten?You' re kidding, right? Top 3 at least.Her singing is so versatile and clear and she has a very special tone in her voice.

[@sallysteele9220]

"There must be an angel (playing with my heart)" shows Annie's vocal talent really well.

[@edragonwhoniverse7625]

And Stevie W..... (Spoilers...)

[@sueflynn9886]

I agree, my favourite Annie Lennox vocals ❤️💕❤️💕❤️

[@tolun99]

..which is the best one, in my opinion. With Stevie Wonders absolutely nailing it on the harmonica at the end.

[@FelipeCarreiro]

@@tolun99 I love this song and listen it since I am a child. It's a surprise for me that is Stevie Wonder on the harmonica :O

[@Marian70V3]

My favourite!!

[@basilramsay1770]

Another smashing hit by Annie Lennox (Eurythmics) was: HERE COMES THE RAIN AGAIN! check it out!!

[@cindysantellan]

Love this song!🤩

[@MultiDaniel3456]

I'm sorry people, but all these songs this guy has never heard of has to be a load of bullshit, WAS he really born yesterday? did someone just thaw him out??

[@BluDynamo]

Looove that song and this duo. They are an absolute fixture of the 80’s.

[@robertreichle1]

@@MultiDaniel3456 He frequently says he recognizes hearing some songs before. As far as being just thawed out... there are a lot of people that wrap themselves in a little bubble of particular experiences and miss out on a whole lot of stuff that's out there. It is kind of like being thawed out if they ever decide to come out of that little bubble.

[@carmelitastephen3124]

Yeah that's a great tune

[@hornerinf]

Annie did her own background vocals in the studio.

[@sunnyd4734]

I still remember the first time I saw this video on MTV in 1983. The "blue cow" was astounding. No one had ever done that before.

[@kelst75]

My childhood. She was so cool and a bit scary at the time. She looked so tough and strong. So many great songs.

[@CrociatoAzzurro]

Song from my youth. This was played everywhere.

[@Kate98755]

Background is the lead singer, annie lennox, you do want to hear more....great songs,

[@RayRay-zt7bj]

The song is unique for sure but it has that classic 80s feel to it.

[@lilsuzq32]

Nothing like some good 1980's music with the synth and pure vocals :)

[@Mr17051963]

Wow! Four songs in one Monday night! You are the top, man! My favorite Reaction Channel! Peace.

[@mikecaetano]

When it comes to the Eurythmics, also check out "Love Is a Stranger", "Here Comes the Rain Again", "Would I Lie to You?", and "Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves" (with Aretha Franklin).

[@kimberlinibambini1988]

Yes!!

[@porflepopnecker4376]

That "Sisters" thing with Aretha Franklin is awful. Just a strident, crass, ugly mess.

[@glenjohnson9128]

Cant ever get enough of 'Love Is A Stranger'. These songs stand the test of time....awesome.

[@carokat1111]

@@porflepopnecker4376 Completely disagree. Love Sisters.

[@catbutte4770]

Eurythmics blew me away when I first saw them! Yay!

[@tinaagerson6593]

Yes she did do all her back and focal's she was classically trained

[@brucedillinger9448]

Huge 80's hit. Deservedly so. Such a catchy number. And then, of course, you have the unmistakably soulful voice of Ms. Annie Lennox.

[@bearballin]

Omg yes! Annie is a goddess, and yes she sang all the backup vocals on this their 2nd album. You must give a reaction to "Love is a Stranger", "Here Comes the Rain Again", "Right By Your Side", "Missionary Man", "Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves"- duet w Aretha Franklin!

[@janstan8407]

She did all her own vocals. (am I wrong?). I'm sure she did her own background vocals too. I prefer this to M.Manson's verson.

[@lordessducky8494]

Yes, jan stan you are correct, Annie did all the vocals. So impressive.. I love her voice.

[@laratosh6977]

I kinda like Manson's version too.

[@jeffkemper7920]

You are correct....Annie Lennox singing all of it!!

[@jaimereynolds258]

Yeah. I've always been a huge Manson fan, but the original will always be the best.

[@bugvswindshield]

Hands down i love this song way more.

[@ayseclark-carter8744]

Jay dude don't you sleep lol. Great song. No more I love yous is a great song. Peeps Jay is on a roll love it. 😊😊💖

[@sandiadams9133]

Can’t get enough of this...yes you said it right and you’re going to love it!!!

[@janstan8407]

You HAVE to play some Depeche Mode. "Everything Counts", "People are People", "Enjoy the Silence" and many more!!

[@JayveeTV]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqbdiZWfi6eDm6c

[@adamdodgshon638]

Depeche Mode don’t get enough respect lol. 40 years strong, 100 million sales, selling out arenas (first group to sell out 4 consecutive nights at Hollywood Bowl), and just a great variety through their history. Try so many more of their songs please!

[@mariahgrimes207]

Adam Dodgshon ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@thomasparsons6159]

Blasphemous Rumours is another one by Depeche Mode, but very intense.

[@PaintedCavern]

Love the Eurythmics, this song was stunning when it came out in the early days of MTV and New Wave music. Please do Love is a Stranger. Thanks for the reaction!🥳

[@Eowyn187]

She's an amazing humanitarian. She posted a statement on a video recently about the situation with George Floyd. You could see and hear the anger and the pain at the atrocity. Great woman great human.

[@lowrider4266]

Annie is the backing vocals also. Another Scottish artist who has the most unique female vocals in rock. Absolutely Love hearing her sing. Another great one is Here Comes The Rain Again.... for a pure soul vocal capabilities showcase try her solo I Put a Spell On You.... simply amazing.... she does a excellent cover of Whiter Shade of Pale. And the only female I know who could ever sing Freddie's parts in Queen/Bowie's Under Pressure. You will love and be constantly amazed at Annie Lennox's vocals.

[@melissagibson3306]

It was different at the time. She was different and unique and with a great voice.

[@arsenalmanic]

The legendary Annie Lennox

[@maryfromabluest8]

Takes me back to my clubbing days... when music videos were all the rage and they installed TVs everywhere so people could watched the video while they danced. All the suggestions for other Eurythmics songs are great. Also “Why” from Annie Lennoxs first solo album.

[@jimamos7984]

Check out (also by eurythmics): Thorn in my Side, Here comes the Rain Again, Love is a Stranger

[@vincentjoyce5100]

Jim Amos Thorn In My Side is my all time fave by them. My go to breakup song!

[@FBodStudios]

If a genie gave me three wishes, my first one would be to have the ability to sing like Annie Lennox. Songs - Here Comes The Rain Again Love Is A Stranger Who’s That Girl? Walking On Broken Glass There Must Be An Angel Missionary Man

[@emmahowells8334]

Ah that brings good memories back, i grew up listening to Eurythmics, all the vocals were Done by Annie Lennox she's awesome. Other faves i like of theirs are "there must be an angel", Here comes the rain again" & "who's that girl", all awesome songs.

[@silverfiste]

Eurythmics - Here Comes the Rain Again

[@sunnyd4734]

Their best song.

[@colibri1]

In the early 1980s, and even the late 1970s some, that "different-sounding" electronic stuff was pretty popular. It wasn't called techno back then but synth-pop or technopop and performers like Depeche Mode, OMD, Gary Numan, the Flying Lizards, Laurie Anderson, Wall of Voodoo, Devo, and Ultravox had big hits with it. Other hits the Eurythmics had were "Here Comes the Rain Again" and "Love is a Stranger." In the mid-1980s, the Eurythmics moved away from electronic stuff to more guitar-based sounds with hits like "Would I Lie to You?" Annie even dueted with Aretha Franklin in the mid-eighties on "Sisters are Doing It For Themselves."

[@lisak4367]

"Would I Lie to You" was their best in my opinion. :))

[@stevious7278]

You have good taste my friend. The only qualifier I would throw in is that with Ultravox it has to be their first 3 albums with John Fox, particularly the first one produced by Brian Eno. I think they died when Mij Ure joined. But that's just my personal opinion. But that is my "Freedom Of Choice" listening to my "Mexican Radio" with my girl "Enola Gay" as we count our "Money" in our "Cars"....

[@pflynn581]

Early 8os synth/new wave.A lot of great and unique sounds coming from the UK at this time.Love is a stranger is in a similar vane.

[@karengoodman1678]

WOW!!! OPEN YOUR MINDS…A. LOT OF THOSE ARTISTS, BACK THEN, DID THEIR OWN BACKGROUND VOCALS..

[@MapManLK]

Annie Lennox (and all her vocal skills), David A. Stewart with some synthesizers, and a tall, cold cocktail with an umbrella is all I need for a nice evening. "Here Comes the Rain Again," "Would I Lie to You" and "Sisters are Doin' it For Themselves" (the last one with Aretha Franklin) are some other goodies from The Eurythmics. (Then there are at least a half dozen more from Annie's solo career.) Great reaction, man!

[@JazzDrummer1946]

Whenever I hear this song, I think of my first NYC apt (what's up Clinton) on W52nd and 10th.

[@ants8527]

1983'' 80s baby Classic Now you gotta do Here Comes The Rain Again!!! Another 1 of my favorites by the Eurythmics!!!😎

[@RicoBurghFan]

Gotta do Smooth Operator by Sade. Don't know why this song made me think of it.

[@zebulon8819]

Love that song 👍✌️♥️

[@stevetici2668]

Your love is king. A really smooth, gentle song by sade

[@SierraSierraFoxtrot]

Excellent suggestion!

[@mommabierman5168]

Wow - great suggestion.

I second this! Anything Sade would be great to get a reaction to.

She is doing her own backup track. 👍🏽

[@louisef1861]

I've said it before, and it still applies, you are on fire with your song selection at the moment. So many good bands, singers, songs. And such great reactions. it is a joy to watch your channel. And now the great Annie Lennox, one of the coolest people on the planet!

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

That’s Dave Stewart in the video with her. Annie has such a powerful voice.

[@johnandrews3151]

One of their #1 hits.

[@TheCaptainKim]

Bowie once called her The Divine Miss Annie. And so she is, divine.

[@lauriebarrett6789]

Song suggestion - "Shout" by Tears for fears.

[@alexvojan2758]

Great Band and especially Annie Lennox She is my most favourite female artist ever!

[@scm021374]

"Walking on Broken Glass" is a good one with a great beat.

[@MrWofty]

there must be an angel, this is must listen to, the vocals are heavenly... truly...

[@connieleighton4375]

Oh first time I heard these guys I went to town and bought the album and it is great. Annie ultimately went solo and has made some amazing music, anything from her diva album would be great for you to check out, my favorite is primative it is sooo different and sooo good...♡

[@Zebred2001]

I always thought this would make a great James Bond theme and Annie Lennox (as seen in this video) a great Bond villain!

[@eljanrimsa5843]

I am pretty sure she would be James Bond.

[@picabowinn]

I love her so much, grew up listening to all of her music. Walking on broken glass, no more I love you's, a whiter shade of pale, here comes the rain again and so many more 😍

[@stevebuckskinner5482]

I'm pretty sure she's doing her own backing track

[@alexvojan2758]

Every one of her songs are so different. She has so many get ups. Great vocals! Dive into her music please! Pick any of her songs.

[@edragonwhoniverse7625]

Evelyn Guerrero That's how good she is. 👌👌👌

[@ocheltree1]

Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart did all the background vocals for this song. She has such a fantastic voice, she can truly sing anything. "Cold" is a very slow song, but you ought to listen to it just to hear her vocals on it. Lovely. Thanks, JVTV, you're one of my favorites! Blessings and Namaste.

[@fransaunders3249]

I'd really love to see your reaction to Shakespeare's Sister singing Stay. The Eurythmics & Annie Lennox's solo work are all amazing. You could pick a random song from either & I'm sure you'd like it just as much.

[@lionelguilbert6493]

If you want to hear Annie's full vocal rang, try this one: There Must Be An Angel

[@yvetteratson9945]

the female voice you hear in the background is Annie, she had a really powerful voice for such a wee bit of a thing

[@richardgane1064]

That beautiful Aberdonian accent of hers . To hear here speak is pure joy. Dave Stewart as the other half is a super intelligent man. He has branched out into many other area other than music.

[@sarasvensson2205]

Broken glass! Annie Lennox on her own. Absolutely brilliant...!

[@gregoryhurst8483]

Big hit in the eighties...Annie Lennox is a cultural icon. They travelled with a full soul brass ensemble and singers...

"Here Comes the Rain Again", "Who's That Girl", "Harden my Heart", "Would I Lie to You", "Missionary Man", and "Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves" are all good.

she is brilliant , so much great music to catch up with from the back in the day , look forward to your reactions Jay.

[@stedgar369]

Yes, it's Annie in the background, too. She's brilliant. When you've followed Eurythmics down the rabbit hole you'll have to dig around for her Solo work. Totally Genius.

[@ericoswald8089]

Eurythmics are AMAZING!! Sweet Dreams was recorded using only 8 tracks. Dave Stewart made the ringing sound with Coke bottles filled with different amounts of water. They recorded the song in a former church they had turned into a studio. And that is definitely Annie Lennox doing all the voices. She has an amazing range.

[@kenuraking]

Annie Lennox not only had a great voice, but also killer looks. That made her a perfect fit for all their MTV Videos back then....check them out !

[@maybrittrnningen580]

Thank you so much.Eurythmics was one of my favourite during the 80s.Annie Lennox is a great singer.The synth music was new and exiting , i think.The same with Moderne talking too , another favourite of mine.

[@mezellenjohnson2753]

Its been years since I heard this and its Annie doing her own back vocals. I'd like to suggest There Must be an Angel, Annie's vocals are wonderful.

[@peterhudgens8817]

This timeless jam was a big hit back in the day.

[@bonitameadows599]

It is about the recording industry

[@seeyouintheeighties]

All vocals are her and squeezed on an old 8 track reel to reel, they had an old oberheim ob-x and an sh101 keyboards. The wooden computer is a drum machine. On the breakdown you hear high pitched percussion, that’s them hitting milk bottles with sticks. The riff is unique because it’s actually 2 different sequences playing. Listen to it in stereo, in the left speaker is a different sound and sequence to the one in the right speaker

[@lauralu4175]

This song is beautiful!! So glad you listened to here. Such a catchy tune! ❤️

[@willythebluebear]

back in the '80 we called this type of music 'new wave' over here in europe.

[@juliebowness3299]

It's a bit of a standing joke with my family that I was quite shy and would never get up and dance at family events. This was the only song that ever got me up dancing !
