According to the Eurythmics discography, The Ultimate Collection will include the new songs "I've got a life" and "Was it just another love affair?"
I wish that I could be more enthusiastic, but Annie Lennox's 2003 Bare and the Eurythmics' 1999 Peace were both relatively disappointing outings, while the news that the re-issued albums have been delayed indefinitely is depressing. Here's hoping that these two songs see them return to their early- to mid-1980s peak.
The Eurythmics have re-teamed to record two new songs for the upcoming retrospective “Ultimate Collection,” due Nov. 8 via Arista. The tracks “I've Got a Life” (the first single) and “Was It Just Another Love Affair?” were recorded in Los Angeles and mark Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart's first new material in more than five years.
“Annie and I didn't plan to go in the studio -- she was staying with me in Los Angeles and we seemed to spontaneously write and record some songs,” Stewart says. “It was just like the old days, songs coming at lightning speed and recorded and mixed in a week.”
