Eurythmics Advent Calendar – December 18
In 1989 Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart released the last Eurythmics studio album – for an eternity of the next 10 years - and it is called “We Too Are One”. The album was the second one by Eurythmics that entered the UK charts at number 1 (the first one was the 1983 album “Touch”). It featured the singles “Don’t Ask Me Why”, “Revival”, “The King and Queen of America” and “Angel”.
In advance Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart sent out rare luxurious promotionals boxes including a promo video, a four track CD and an interview cassette (and in very rare cases a tour flyer).
The interview cassette included besides some songs the following interview bits:
01. Introduction
02. D & A about the album
03. Dave about the song “We Too Are One”
05. Annie about The King And Queen Of America
07. Dave about the sound of the album
09. Annie about problems of the world
11. Dave about going on tour again
13. Annie about You Hurt Me (And I Hate You)
15. Dave about love, peace and isolation
17. D & A about the future

The promotional video tape is running approx. 14 minutes and includes next to interview bits, looks behind a photo shoot for the album, behind the scenes of the video production for “Revival” and intelligent jokes by Dave.
