Another hard one, but I went with "Thorn In My Side". It's the song that I always seem to play first whenever I pop in my Eurythmics' Greatest Hits CD... :)

I voted for "There Must Be an Angel" with "Thorn in My Side" a very close second.

Now come on, would I lie to you about that? ;)

Sweet Dreams was a great song, but there is just something about "Would I lie to you", which takes me on a bit of a nostalgia trip.

"Missionary Man"

I thought it was their coolest video with "Sweet Dreams" a close second.

"Sweet Dreams" - such a classic 80's song.

"Would I lie to you" got my vote, it reminds me going to school early in the morning and hearing my mother sing along. :D :)

'Sweet Dreams' for me....but you just gotta admire that tinkly-bop guitar line in 'You've placed a chill' :thumb:

Sex Crime 1984 is my favorite Eurythmics song. :)

I voted for Love Is A Stranger. But it was really difficult, could have been a five way tie.

I saw them on Top Of The Pops in the UK doing You've Placed A Chill In My Heart when it was out. Dave Stewart only had a guitar and Annie Lennox sang live, it was very very good, probably one of the most memorable performances I've seen on the TV of any band during the eighties.

I voted for "Here Comes The Rain Again" was and still is my favorite Eurythmics song! :thumb:

'Would I Lie to You' for me...'Here Comes the Rain Again' would be a close runner up on this one :cool:

I've voted for "sweet dreams". It was one of the first songs that left me agape in the 80s, and also the video (Annie Lennox with her short orange hair on a green grass background...)
My favorite all-times Eurhymics song of is "Why?".

I am not a huge Eurythmics fan, but it was a toss up between Would I Lie To You and Here Comes the Rain Again and I chose Would I Lie To You

Gosh, another toughie. My absolute favorite is "I NEED A MAN" but since it wasn't in the choices, I voted for "Would I Lie to You" with Missionary Man and a close second. The woman has an awesome voice and can sing just about anything.

"Love Is A Stranger"-- I just love this song and Annie's voice is awesome. It's crazy also, because my 11 yr old son is starting to sing these songs also.

Cross between "Here Comes The Rain Again" & "Sweet Dreams".
However, the latter has gotten more votes and since I like both songs equally, I'll try to balance out the scales. :)
favorite song not mentioned: "Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves" (http://www.cdnow.com/from=sr-181894/cgi-bin/mserver/SID=1643641837/pagename=/RP/CDN/FIND/album.html/artistid=EURYTHMICS/itemid=329338)

Would I Lie to You!!!!! You could see the strength of Annie's solo career rising!

HARD TO CHOOSE JUST ONE!


I totaly concure

Who's that Girl still sends shivers down my spine

'Berlinda' is is great, 'Love is a Stranger', 'Sweet Dreams', 'Here comes the rain again', all great.

Beethoven (I Love To Listen To) seems to have been lost in time but i really like it (and the Video that went with it)

You can't argue with "i need a man" or "would I lie to you" but "Ball and Chain" is proberbly the one of their best song despite never being a single!
