Eurythmics were a British new wave duo formed in 1980, consisting of Scottish vocalist Annie Lennox and English musician and producer Dave Stewart. Both had previously been members of the Tourists, a band that disbanded in 1980. They released their first studio album, "In the Garden" (1981), which achieved little commercial success, but gained global recognition with their second album, "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" (1983). The title track became a worldwide hit, reaching number two on the UK Singles Chart, and number one in Canada and on the US Billboard Hot 100. Eurythmics released several other successful singles and albums, including "Love Is a Stranger", "There Must Be an Angel (Playing with My Heart)", and "Here Comes the Rain Again", before initially disbanding in 1990.

They reunited again in 2005 to release the single "I've Got a Life", which reached the top ten in Scotland, the top twenty in the United Kingdom, and number one on the US Dance Club Songs chart, as part of the compilation album "Ultimate Collection".
