What a beautiful thing this is.. remember the final minutes of that Sopranos episode this song ended out (It was the one where Carmela told Tony to go F%#@ himself, she was on her own, etc., etc.,)... Xcelent vocals... Love the Gitarwork... Every version I've heard on Youtube sounds like an angel singing!
Awesome posted on my fb. I'm on one accord for and invite you to Globalfirm, the final ultimate world order with ecological, best quality and accessible to all, basics and base for self-realization, in the spirit of total freedom, liberty, love and truth.
This song was written to combat Duran Duran's 'A View To A Kill', their bid for the James Bond theme song.
When Eurythmics didn't win that bid (something practically unheard of in the 1980's), they decided to blow open the whole Bond thing by changing a line or two of the original, thus creating a song that highlights how ignorance of the suffering of certain societies is rampant, and that people are completely happy not knowing of the starvation, abuse and neglect that goes on in the world.
@AppleSneezeGoo certain societies also should be certain of their ability to grow and prosper.I look across the border of El Paso TX. into Mexico. The poor Mexican people have no welfare no food stamps shacks and huts. Americas poorest black projects still have parking lots for cars , air conditioning, TV sets , its true african americans went from one plantation to another one.
@texred616 I'm not quite sure I get where you're coming from?
Do you mean poverty is all about perspective, that compared to Mexico the ghettos of America are actually quite prosperous? If so, I imagine you're quite right.
I've lived with borderline poverty a few times in my life, but unlike say people in Ethiopia, all I had to do was wise up & do something about it. Some people do not have that option. 1st world "hardships" will never match 3rd world trauma.
Oddly enough, (considering the Sopranos comments) - the song reminds me more of the general feelings of uncertainty and not knowing what was about to happen that came with 9/11 and the news footage of the attacks.
I can't even remember the scene in The Sopranos where this was used (seen all the episodes though, just awhile ago)
...and then we wake-up and see the bad thing never went away, the world's politicos are here to stay. Fantastic song in a period of pop mush. So brilliant! Thanks for posting it and sharing with us all.
@Andre66630 this is greece responding. no thumbs up mate. thumbs down. all the way to hell. we can't save the world. we can't save our homeland. we cannot even save ourselves. so yeah :((((
So perfect for today. I missed Annie singing WHY? solo, on a white concert grand at the 9/11 memorial. But what an amazing, awesome, and peaceful song.
Thank God music like this was MADE. It will never be unmade or destroyed. I don't care if new music is inferior, there's always someone out there who can be introduced to Eurythmics by you.
aaah! que buena canción me levanta el ánimo, cuando me siento derrotada sin ganas de no saber de nada ni de nadie, pero al escuchar esta canción, me hace reflexionar y pensar que no está todo perdido, todavía hay porque luchar..
This guys (Stewart-Lennox) are geniuses. I heard interviews with D. Stewart, so humble and wise, difficult to imagine him as a rock star. I guess this song reflects his feelings about our deceptive politicians that claim to save a country (you name it, Viet Nam, Iraq, and Libya, etc) and first kill some hundred thousand or million of its citizens and then claim that the remaining were "saved"
This is the opposite of a hopeful song... not happy at all, although brilliant and sublime in a very, very powerful way. In my opinion, it deals with all the lies we tell ourselves at the end of the day, to avoid faltering and falling short (Because the world has not been, and probably will never be, saved). Very very interesting. D.R.
ritchie gets whacked by tony's sister and tony is speaking to carmela about it when she decides to go to italy and it fades to black with this song playing......
Annie com essa performace e voz linda! da vida a essa música que por sinal é uma das mais bem interpretadas que ja vi inclusive pelos backing - vocal, simplismente PERFEITO!!!!!!
There has NEVER been a Better Musician with Such HeArT & SouL as Annie compared to all the kKrAp mUzIk today, most of them BADLY 'imitating' the GREATS of the past because they have Neither 'skill', Imagination or TALENT Like Eurythmics still has !
(Al-E-Imran) Say, (O Muhammad, to mankind): If ye love Allah, follow me; Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (31)
Still it's posible that this "copying"(whatever it is) was done. Eurythmics could have seen Lady gaga act in diper's and here it is...We see it and it's discusting. :)
Estimated friend, if you want to listen again this song and an endless number of successes of the love I suggest you to visit Radio MUSICA PARA MIMOS - looks for his direction URL in Google ( search Musica para Mimos in Google)-. best romantic music of all the times in Internet, is great, is very good ...!!!
Not to start an argument, but it's really a shame that they don't make music like this anymore. Popular music is fun and catchy, but when it comes down to it there really isn't any soul. Not like this.
@kikyouskiller I totally agree with you. Makes me sad that this song marked the end of the Eurythmics as we know them. And like many other songs it marked the downfall of good music
@ThatGirlWhoLikesCats The principal vocalist is a female. Her name is Annie Lennox. She and fellow band member Dave Stewart formed Eurythmics in the late 70s early 80s. She has also done solo work.
