This peaked at #21 in the USA from the bands classic "Touch" album. It's possibly my favourite song of theirs. The video is very interesting, with Annie's gender-bending image and a guest appearence by Dave's future wife Siobhan Fahey of Bananarama & Shakespear's Sister.

I like this song, but like most other Eurythmics songs, I found it a little bland. If it wasn't for Annie Lennox's amazing vocals I would have never listened to it.

Love this especially Annie kissing herself in the video.
The video is not at YouTube.

It's okay, but they've had many better than this.

This is one of my many favorites from them. I love the almost sinister, foreboding sounding production during the verses leading to the chorus. It's almost like a Shakespearean drama.
The video is totally epic with all the cameos and Annie in drag at the end. That was so unexpected. Annie wore the same look again during an award show performance. Many have said that Lady Gaga was inspired by this when she did her whole Jo Calderon look when hosting the VMAs and performing.

This song is criminally underrated. Hell, the Eurythmics are criminally underrated....

Amazing! Eurythmics are one of the greatest acts to emerge from the 80s.
