BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1987
“Shame” is a song recorded by British pop music duo Eurythmics. It was written by band members Annie Lennox and David A. Stewart and produced by Stewart. The song appears on the duo’s sixth studio album Savage and was released as the second single in the UK. “Shame” was not released in the United States.
The track is a synthpop ballad in which the protagonist expresses regret and disdain for excessive and shallow lifestyles led by those who frequent nightclubs, bars, parties, and the like. The lyrics namecheck The Beatles and The Rolling Stones and mentions the song “All You Need is Love”.
“Shame” stalled at number forty-one in the UK singles chart, the first Eurythmics single to miss the UK Top 40 since “Julia” in 1985.
