Álbum Be Yourself Tonight de Eurythmics - Canciones
Be Yourself Tonight
Reseña
Con Be Yourself Tonight, de 1985, Eurythmics entrega una de sus obras maestras y protagoniza un espectacular giro estilístico. En este trabajo, de hecho, el dúo se aleja del synth-pop más frío de sus inicios para abrazar de lleno la música soul y el R&B. Por lo tanto, el resultado es un disco cálido, orgánico y lleno de un "groove" irresistible.
En consecuencia, la producción del álbum, a cargo del propio Dave Stewart, es exquisita y cuenta con una banda de músicos excepcionales. La sección de vientos y los coros de soul son los grandes protagonistas, creando un sonido que es un homenaje a la música de sellos como Stax.
Además, el álbum está repleto de colaboraciones de lujo y de éxitos inmortales. El primer sencillo, "Would I Lie to You?", es un tema de R&B-rock arrollador. Sin embargo, la joya de la corona es el himno feminista "Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves", un espectacular dueto con la reina del soul, Aretha Franklin.
Por otro lado, el disco también cuenta con la participación de Stevie Wonder a la armónica en la canción "There Must Be an Angel (Playing with My Heart)", que se convirtió en su único número uno en el Reino Unido. En definitiva, 'Be Yourself Tonight' es un triunfo, una obra que no solo es un festín de buena música, sino también una poderosa declaración de principios.

[X]letra de Would I Lie To You?
Would I Lie To You?
Would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you honey?
Now would I say something that wasn't true?
I'm asking you sugar
Would I lie to you?
My friends - know what's in store.
I won't be here anymore.
I've packed my bags
I've cleaned the floor.
Watch me walkin'.
Walkin' out the door.
Believe me - I'll make it make it
Believe me - I'll make it make it
Would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you honey?
Now would I say something that wasn't true?
I'm asking you sugar
Would I lie to you?
Tell you straight - no intervention.
To your face - no deception.
You're the biggest fake.
That much is true.
Had all I can take.
Now I'm leaving you
Believe me - I'll make it make it
Believe me - I'll make it make it
Would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you honey?
Now would I say something that wasn't true?
I'm asking you sugar
Would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you?
Would I lie to you honey?
Now would I say something that wasn't true?
I'm asking you sugar
Would I lie to you?
My friends - know what's in store.
I won't be here anymore.
I've packed my bags
I've cleaned the floor.
Watch me walkin'.
Walkin' out the door.
Believe me - I'll make it make it
Believe me - I'll make it make it

- I Love You Like A Ball And ChainVer letra 4:04
[X]letra de I Love You Like A Ball And Chain
Well the sound of your voice on the telephone
Make me feel distressed
Make me all alone.
Why do I feel so incomplete?
When you're not here I'm just obsolete.
My bed is burnin' all through the night.
You're the only one that can make me feel right.
Try to lay down my sleepin' head
But I'm tossin' and turnin' around instead.
I love you like a ball and chain.
(Make it alright now.)
Love you like a ball and chain.
(Feels too good.)
I'm a fool I know but I'm stuck on you.
I'm a fool I know and it's makin' me blue.
There's a river of blood.
There's a river of tears
I've been wasting all these years.
Chorus repeats. - Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves 5:54
- Conditioned SoulVer letra 4:30
[X]letra de Conditioned Soul
(When will you make up your mind?)
Darling just be yourself tonight
There's nothing wrong with the way you feel
The moon and stars are in the sky
We're centuries apart
And the lights are shining down on you
(I can't stand it)
Everybody's kissing someone
Holding hands just to get some fun
I couldn't care less if I ever get none
Or never fall into some lover's arms again
(I can't stand it)
Ah, conditioned soul
When will you make up your mind?
(I can't stand it)
Ah, conditioned soul
When will you make up your mind?
(I can't stand it)
Darling don't be afraid tonight
Something's wrong with the way you feel
The moon and stars have all gone by
We're centuries apart and the lights are dying
Everybody's hurting someone
Stabbing back just to get some fun
I hope to God I don't get me none
Or never fall into some killer's arms again
When will you make up your mind?
(I can't stand it). - AdrianVer letra 4:29
[X]letra de Adrian
Adrian - don't you understand?
Fools like us are always dreaming.
And when you go to bed
And cover up your head
It's better if you try to stop remembering.
And the world is slowly dawning
To wake up to a new clear morning.
Some of them just half your age
Get written off, page by page...
Adrian don't you understand?
Fools like us are always dreaming.
And when you go to bed
And cover up your head
It's better if you try to stop remembering.
Some of them just half your age
Get written off page by page...
And the world is softly sleeping
While your fears are in their keeping.
All the planet's making haste
To blow to bits in outer space...
Adrian - don't you understand? - It's Alright (Baby's Coming Back) 3:45
- Here Comes That Sinking FeelingVer letra 5:40
[X]letra de Here Comes That Sinking Feeling
Have you ever heard the sound of disappointment?
It tangles your head like a winter rose.
Comes up eager and shining
And it likes to leave a scar before it goes.
Here comes that sinking feeling
(Can't keep it to myself)
Nobody hurts me like you do.
You cut into me like a poison dart.
Creep into my sleep at night.
Break into my dreams and tear them apart.
Here comes that sinking feeling.
Have you ever felt the sound of disappointment?
It pounds in your head like hammer blows.
Comes on gentle and smiling.
And it likes to leave a scar...
Here it comes again no.
Here comes that sinking feeling. - Better To Have Lost In Love (Then Never To Have Loved At All)
