By the late '80s and into the '90s, the Eurythmics sound favored sweeping balladry and smooth, loungy productions (the closer of the set, "Was It Just Another Love Affair?," is a case in point). There is a fair sampling of that material, but ULTIMATE sticks primarily to the band's mid-'80s peak, showcasing their finest songs, the superb producing and arranging of Dave Stewart, and the exceptional vocals of Annie Lennox.

Besting 1991's GREATEST HITS with a longer track list and the inclusion of two new recordings, the Eurythmics' ULTIMATE COLLECTION is a definitive exhibition of the band's best songs. The Eurythmics were always a singles band, and a set such as this--with indelible hypnotic/robotic grooves like "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) alongside the synth-pop melancholia of "Here Comes the Rain Again" and raucous neo-soul like "Would I Lie to You?"--helps one appreciate how much great work the duo produced.

Ultimate Collection Music Review

Average Rating: (4.5 out of 5 stars) 4.5 stars

5 stars Ultimate!
This is really the ultimate collection. The choice of the songs is perfect and really representative of their best works. The mastering is well done so the sound is reaaly nice and incisive; the music is great. Well it really deserves the best judgement, it would be an A+ at MIT, I would like to be able to rate it 5 stars+ if I could.

4 stars 80's ICONS prove they still have it!!!
What sets this collection apart from the '91 hits set is that some songs are sadly eliminated, most notably "Don't Ask Me Why" and "King & Queen Of America", but other great "shoulda-been hits" are tossed on; "Right By Your Side", "You Have Placed A Chill In My Heart", among others. Plus, as is the case for any decent greatest hits out nowadays, a couple new songs are here for good measure. "I've Got A Life" ranks right up there with the classic songs from the Eurythmics. Dancey enough for the clubs, but with Annie Lennox's intense vocals making it something more. So, if you're like me and you had their first hits collection, it's about time to trade up!

4 stars Great New Collection
This is a great new remastered collection by 80's Hit Makers, The Eurythmics. My only concern is they left off material from their 1989 album "We Too Are One". I don't understand why? Otherwise, it's a great disc full of great pop music!

5 stars Amazing stuff!
The Eurythmics made some wonderful songs, especially during their '80's peak. Just listening to these again reminds me of just how great they are, I especially admire Annie Lennox as an amazing woman anyway- her performance at the Live 8 concert was great and she is incredible for her work with HIV & AIDS awareness. If you love great popular music with real lyrics sung to perfection, buy this CD.
