Eurythmics – Sexcrime (Nineteen Eighty·Four) (1984)

Burning The Ground Exclusive

NEW 2026 Transfer
NEW Meticulous Audio Restoration

For the next entry in Ladies Of The 80s: Soundtrack Edition, we are leaving behind the bright pop of “Whole Wide World” and entering a much colder, darker, and more unsettling world.

“Sexcrime (Nineteen Eighty-Four)” was released in 1984 as the first single from Eurythmics’ soundtrack album 1984 (For The Love Of Big Brother), created for Michael Radford’s film adaptation of George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four. The movie starred John Hurt as Winston Smith, Suzanna Hamilton as Julia, and Richard Burton in his final film role as O’Brien.

Although Eurythmics was a duo, there was no leaving Annie Lennox out of this series. Her voice, image, and commanding presence helped make Eurythmics one of the most recognizable acts of the decade. On “Sexcrime,” she sounds fierce, nervous, controlled, and ready to explode, often within the same few seconds.

The song was written by Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart and produced by Stewart. Its title comes directly from Orwell’s fictional language of Newspeak. In the world of Nineteen Eighty-Four, even private desire can become an offense against the state. Romance, sex, and personal loyalty are dangerous because they create bonds that exist outside the control of Big Brother.

Eurythmics turned that idea into one of their hardest and most mechanical singles.

“Sexcrime” is built around pounding electronic percussion, stabbing synthesizers, sampled fragments of Annie’s voice, and Dave Stewart’s processed repetition of “nineteen eighty-four.” Annie’s vocals are cut into small pieces and fired through the track like another rhythm instrument. The effect is tense, hypnotic, and slightly disturbing.

It sounds like a pop song created inside the Ministry of Truth.

There is also a physical urgency to the record. Beneath all the cold machinery, Annie sings like someone trying to protect the final pieces of her private life. When she reaches the line about pulling down the bricks one by one and leaving a hole in the wall, the song briefly turns from fear toward resistance.

That was one of Eurythmics’ greatest strengths during this period. They could make electronic music sound cold and deeply human at the same time.

The song’s video carried the Orwellian mood even further. Filmed at London’s Battersea Power Station, it placed Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart inside a bleak industrial setting filled with harsh lighting, smoke, rain, surveillance imagery, and scenes from the movie. The location could hardly have been more appropriate for the song’s oppressive atmosphere.

The story behind the soundtrack was nearly as tense as the music.

Virgin Films commissioned Eurythmics to create music for the movie, while director Michael Radford had already been working with composer Dominic Muldowney on a traditional orchestral score. Radford objected when much of Muldowney’s work was replaced with Eurythmics’ electronic music. The Eurythmics later stated that they had accepted the assignment in good faith and were unaware of the disagreement between the director and the film company. Different releases of the movie have since appeared with different combinations of the two scores.

The controversy may have complicated the movie’s release, but 1984 (For The Love Of Big Brother) remains a fascinating Eurythmics album. Much of it is instrumental, experimental, and far removed from the direct pop sound of hits such as “Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)” and “Here Comes The Rain Again.”

“Sexcrime” was the album’s most obvious single, although there was nothing particularly safe about it.

In the UK, the record became Eurythmics’ sixth consecutive Top 10 single, reaching number four and spending fifteen weeks on the chart. The album reached number 23 on the UK Albums Chart.

The reception in the United States was very different. Many American radio programmers and video outlets reacted to the title without understanding its meaning within Orwell’s novel. The single stalled at number 81 on the Billboard Hot 100, but club audiences were far more welcoming. It reached number two on Billboard’s dance chart.

Once again, the clubs were ahead of the radio.

For this post, I am returning to the US 12-inch promotional release. The record opens with the nearly eight-minute Extended Mix, followed on the B-side by the Single Version and “I Did It Just The Same.”

The Extended Mix gives the mechanical rhythm more room to build. Annie’s sampled vocals move in and out of the arrangement while the percussion, synthesizers, and processed voices create a sense that the listener is being watched from every direction. It is not a traditional extended mix filled with new melodies or a warm dance-floor groove. Instead, it takes the song’s nervous tension and stretches it into something even more severe.

The B-side, “I Did It Just The Same,” also draws its title and subject matter from Orwell’s novel. It is another dark electronic piece that fits naturally beside “Sexcrime” and helps make the 12-inch feel like a small extension of the soundtrack album rather than a standard pop single. The US promotional pressing contains the Extended Mix, Single Version, and “I Did It Just The Same.”

I previously posted this record in January 2018. That transfer was itself an update of an even earlier Burning The Ground post, but eight years have passed, and my equipment and restoration work have changed considerably since then.

For the new 2026 edition, I returned to the vinyl and created an entirely new transfer from the beginning. This is not a remaster of the 2018 files. It is a fresh recording followed by meticulous audio restoration, with special attention given to preserving the sharp electronic attack, deep percussion, vocal samples, and cold atmosphere of the original production.

“Sexcrime (Nineteen Eighty-Four)” is not the easiest or most comforting Eurythmics single. It is harsh, strange, repetitive, and confrontational.

That is exactly why it remains so exciting.

More than four decades later, the song still sounds like a warning being transmitted from somewhere just beyond the telescreen.

Big Brother is watching.

Annie Lennox is fighting back.

A’mé Lorain – Whole Wide World (US 12″) (1989)

Burning The Ground Exclusive

After spending the first two entries of Ladies Of The 80s: Soundtrack Edition with the blockbuster Footloose soundtrack, I thought it was time to move toward something a little less obvious.

“Whole Wide World” by A’mé Lorain may not be tied to a movie as famous as Footloose, but the record became a major hit on its own and remains one of the most infectious pop singles released during the closing months of the 1980s.

The song appeared on the soundtrack to True Love, a 1989 independent comedy directed by Nancy Savoca and starring Annabella Sciorra and Ron Eldard. Set within an Italian-American neighborhood in the Bronx, the film follows an engaged couple as wedding plans, family expectations, and second thoughts begin to test their relationship. True Love opened in October 1989 and won the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.

“Whole Wide World” was written by Arnie Roman and Elliot Wolff, with Wolff also handling the production. Wolff was on quite a roll at the time, having recently written and produced Paula Abdul’s “Straight Up” and “Cold Hearted.” You can hear some of that same late-80s pop precision here, with tightly programmed rhythms, bright keyboards, and a chorus built to stay in your head.

From its opening seconds, “Whole Wide World” has an energy that sits right on the border between the 1980s and 1990s. The synthesizers and polished pop production are firmly rooted in the late 80s, while the beat points toward the New Jack Swing sound that was quickly taking over radio and dance floors.

A’mé Lorain’s vocal is playful, confident, and full of personality. She delivers the song with the excitement of someone who has fallen so completely in love that keeping it quiet is no longer an option. She wants everyone to know, and by the time the chorus arrives, she has probably convinced the listener to help spread the news.

It is pure pop, and it works.

A’mé Lorain was born Amy Trujillo and performed with The Family Affair, which included her brother Freddy Trujillo on bass and her then-husband Victor Indrizzo on guitar and drums. The group released the wonderfully titled album Starring In…Standing In A Monkey Sea on RCA Records in 1989. “Whole Wide World” appeared on both that album and the True Love soundtrack.

Although the record was released in 1989, its greatest chart success came during the spring of 1990. “Whole Wide World” climbed to number nine on the US Billboard Hot 100, giving A’mé Lorain her first and only Top 10 pop hit. It also reached number nine on Billboard’s dance chart and finished at number 95 on the magazine’s year-end Hot 100 listing for 1990.

That chart run makes “Whole Wide World” an interesting choice for an 80s series. The single belongs to the decade by release date, but its success arrived just as the calendar turned. It captures that brief period when the sound and style of the late 80s continued moving forward before the new decade developed an identity of its own.

The film itself has become more of a cult favorite than a widely remembered box-office hit. The song followed a different path. Many listeners who have never seen True Love still remember “Whole Wide World” from radio, MTV, clubs, or a long-forgotten cassette recorded from the weekly countdown.

That is one of the great things about soundtrack singles from this period. A song did not always need the movie to become a hit. Sometimes the soundtrack gave a new artist an opening, radio took over from there, and the record developed a life entirely separate from the film.

“Whole Wide World” also brings a different type of artist into this series. Bonnie Tyler and Deniece Williams were already established stars when their Footloose singles were released. A’mé Lorain was a new face with a debut hit, suddenly competing on the charts alongside some of the biggest names in pop.

Her follow-up single, “Follow My Heartbeat,” reached number 72 on the Hot 100, but the success of “Whole Wide World” was never repeated. That has left the song frozen in a particular moment, colorful, catchy, slightly quirky, and unmistakably connected to the period when the 1980s were making their final exit.

It may not be the first title people think of when discussing great 80s soundtrack singles, but that is exactly why it belongs here.

Sometimes the most enjoyable selections are the ones that make you stop and say, “I had forgotten all about this.”

The whole wide world may not remember A’mé Lorain, but those who heard this record the first time around certainly have not forgotten the song.

Bonnie Tyler – Holding Out For A Hero (UK 12″) (1984)

Burning The Ground Exclusive

NEW 2026 Transfer
NEW Meticulous Audio Restoration

I had already planned to begin this new series with Bonnie Tyler before hearing the sad news of her passing. Now, this post carries a meaning I never expected it to have.

Bonnie Tyler passed away on July 8, 2026, at the age of 75. With her unmistakable voice and powerful delivery, she gave us some of the most dramatic and memorable recordings of the 1970s and 1980s. She could turn almost any song into a full-scale event, and “Holding Out For A Hero” remains one of the greatest examples.

Released in 1984 as part of the soundtrack for the motion picture Footloose, “Holding Out For A Hero” was written by Jim Steinman and Dean Pitchford and produced by Steinman. The song was later included on Bonnie’s 1986 studio album Secret Dreams And Forbidden Fire.

From its opening blast of drums, racing piano, blaring horns, and urgent backing vocals, the record never slows down. Everything about it is oversized, breathless, and wonderfully theatrical. Then Bonnie enters with that rough, commanding voice, sounding as though she is not merely waiting for a hero. She is demanding that one arrive immediately.

No one could have sung this song halfway. It required a vocalist who could rise above Jim Steinman’s enormous production without becoming lost inside it. Bonnie did more than rise above it. She owned every second.

The song was originally released in the UK in 1984, reaching only number 96. It was reissued the following year and became a major hit, climbing to number two and remaining there for three weeks. It also reached number one in Ireland and number 34 on the US Billboard Hot 100.

The Footloose soundtrack was packed with hit singles, but “Holding Out For A Hero” brought a different kind of energy to the album. It was louder, stranger, and more dramatic than almost anything surrounding it. Even without the movie, the recording creates its own frantic action sequence inside your head.

For this post, I am using the original UK 12-inch single. The A-side features the extended dance remix by John “Jellybean” Benitez. Jellybean stretches the song to more than six minutes while keeping the force and urgency of Jim Steinman’s original production. The remix gives the arrangement more room to breathe, but it never loses its momentum.

The B-side opens with the instrumental version of “Holding Out For A Hero.” Removing Bonnie’s lead vocal puts more attention on the layers buried within the production, including the dramatic piano, pounding percussion, guitars, synthesizers, and backing vocals. It is a great companion to the extended remix and shows just how much is happening underneath Bonnie’s performance.

The final track is “Faster Than The Speed Of Night,” the title song from Bonnie’s hugely successful 1983 album. Also written and produced by Jim Steinman, it makes this UK 12-inch feel more substantial than the usual soundtrack single. All three tracks capture Bonnie during one of the strongest periods of her career.

I previously posted this record in April 2019. For this new 2026 edition, I returned to the vinyl and created an entirely new transfer from the beginning. This is not a recycled or lightly updated version of the previous post. It is a brand-new transfer with meticulous audio restoration while preserving the power, movement, and excitement of the original recording.

This post also begins my new series, Ladies Of The 80s: Soundtrack Edition. Throughout the series, I will be featuring female artists who released singles connected to motion pictures during the 1980s.

It is bittersweet to begin the series this way, but I cannot think of a stronger song or a more deserving artist. Bonnie Tyler gave the decade a voice that could sound wounded, fearless, romantic, and larger than life, sometimes within the same recording.

Thank you, Bonnie, for the music, the drama, and that unforgettable voice.

Barbra Streisand – Promises (US 12″ Promo) (1980)

Burning The Ground Exclusive

NEW 2026 Transfer
NEW Meticulous Audio Restoration

Original post date: June 26, 2015

Released in May 1981, “Promises” was the fourth and final single taken from Barbra Streisand’s hugely successful album Guilty.

Written by Barry Gibb and Robin Gibb, the song carries the polished pop sound that defined much of the album. Barry and Robin also appear on backing vocals, adding those unmistakable Gibb harmonies behind Streisand’s commanding lead.

While “Promises” narrowly missed the Top 40 on the US Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 48, it found greater success with adult contemporary listeners. The single reached number 8 on the US Adult Contemporary chart and climbed to number 5 in Canada.

A commercial 12″ single was released in both the United States and Europe, featuring a 5:55 “Special Version.” To my knowledge, this extended version has never appeared on CD or through digital services and remains exclusive to vinyl.

“Promises” also marked an interesting point in Streisand’s singles history. It was her first commercially released 12″ single as a solo artist. It followed her 1979 duet with Donna Summer, “No More Tears (Enough Is Enough),” along with promotional 12″ releases for “Shake Me, Wake Me (When It’s Over)” in 1975 and “The Main Event/Fight” in 1979.

The “Special Version” does not radically remake the song. Instead, it gives the arrangement more room to breathe, extending the smooth production and allowing the backing vocals, rhythm section, and instrumental details to stand out. It is a subtle extension, but one that works beautifully with the sleek sound of the Guilty era.

This post features a brand-new 2026 meticulous audio transfer and restoration taken from the US 12″ promotional pressing. The record contains the same 5:55 version on both sides.

For Streisand collectors, Gibb fans, and anyone who appreciates the refined sound of early 1980s pop, this vinyl-only version of “Promises” is a lovely addition to the collection.
