History Trivia / Eurythmics

* DyeHard: Annie Lennox was a redhead for the first three albums, platinum blonde for the next four albums (and her 21st century career), and brunette for her 90's solo career and ''Peace''. Dave Stewart also dabbled in blonde hair throughout the 80's as well.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: "Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves" was originally supposed to be a collaboration with Music/TinaTurner, however Turner was unavailable at the time so they asked Music/ArethaFranklin to be part of the duet instead.

* TroubledProduction: The video for "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" had a few complications. The label hated when Annie Lennox arrived with her hair short and she refused to wear a dress. A cow was also brought on set and was allowed to run amuck. The part where the cow walks up to keyboardist Dave Stewart? It was completely unexpected and they were expecting the cow to harass Stewart and ruin the shot.
