Lyrics
I don't care if you won't
Talk to me
You know I'm not that kind of girl.
And I don't care if you won't
Walk with me
It don't give me such a thrill.
And I don't care about the way you look
You should know I'm not impressed
'Cause there's just one thing
That I'm looking for
And he don't wear a dress.
I need a man...
I need a man...
Baby baby baby
Don't you shave your legs
Don't you double comb your hair
Don't powder puff
Just leave it rough
I like your fingers bare.
When the night comes down
I can turn it round
I can take you anywhere.
I don't need love
Forget that stuff
You know that I don't care
I need a man...
I need a man...
I don't need a heartbreaker
Fifty-faced trouble maker
Two timing time taker
Dirty little money maker
Muscle bound cheap skate
Low down woman hater
Triple crossing double dater
Yella bellied alligator...
I don't care if you won't
Talk to me
You know I'm not that kind of girl.
And I don't care if you won't
Walk with me
It don't give me such a thrill.
And I don't care about the way you look
You should know I'm not impressed
'Cause there's just one thing
That I'm looking for
And he don't wear a dress. - Hudba

Annie is one of my favorite female singers, I love how she embraces so many different characters and styles all while being so cool, aloof but fascinating. The bonus is her incredible vocal talent that even the Queen of Soul had to capture in a duet. I never understood how so many idolize Madonna and sleep on this incredible woman.
I totally agree. I've loved her for decades.
Because anymore, it takes someone who can actually think to appreciate real talent over mainstream. All too often, the masses mistake lack of talent for genius.
I was thinking the same thing.
She’s 100% artiste!
@@Gagalover1569 👍
Annie Lennox becomes her character. She shreds the hell out of this song. I've never seen anyone sing it like this. It's the perfect vamp complete with a primal scream. God, I love this song.
Annie Lennox is the hands down best vocalist of her generation. She's still sings better than just about everyone in the business today.
An icon in so many ways
SHE IS A PERFORMER OF EXTRAORDINARY TALENT, AND THE ABSOLUTE BEST IN HER FIELD , WHICH IS A GIGANTIC PLACE.
absolutely a fabulous artist --- gorgeous too!
Carlos Bento 10 Times better than Lady Gag Gag
But with the possible exception of Emily Haines (METRIC). She has the same kind of presence as Annie. It would be awesome to hear them sing together. BTW: I'm a huge fan of "I Need a Man" where Annie really kicks ass.
Dave Stewart is an underrated writer. The hook in this song is gold.
Baby, you're just over blown'
I'm surprised Annie didn't go into professional acting, her different persona's are so fantastic!!! Oscar performance quality!!!
Can you imagine her as Auntie Mame?
Geo Orobo
She acted in a drama called "The Room" which was available on vhs tape around 1990. I didn't watch it (I should have); I only read the synopsis. It sounded like a psychological suspense story. I can't find it anywhere now.
She starred in Revolution with Al Pacino in 1985.
@@howardk.187 It was just a brief role.
She’s a terrible actress
I love how Annie's heavily invested in the character she's portraying.
this was her trademark...a chameleon,who ransformed herself into what she was singing
she brings it to you every ball
One of her underappreciated gems. This song rocks and so does her performance. Usually docile in her videos, she knocked this one out of the park!
She’s also pretty wild in Would I lie to you & Missionary Man
THIS ALONG WITH 🎵"LOVE IS A STRANGER"🎵 MY FAVOURITES !! DOBBLE SHOT HITS THE SPOT!!🤗😁🙂
One of not just the coolest chicks ever, but one of the most talented. Annie rocks.
Recently, I watched a clip on here of an event honouring Sting, and she appeared to sing one of his songs, but the introduction had her named as 'one of the best voices .... EVER' - which, made me laugh as it was a tribute to someone else altogether! HA!
Straight up rock goddess, soul diva, and pop queen. Only a few come close but none surpass Annie Lennox.
RayVision3D yeah man...I wish we had this kind of talent nowadays...we just don't though.
Jeremy Hobbs Really i aint dead yet ...
I saw Eurythmics when they were supporting the Be Yourself Tonight album. Annie is a powerful stage presence and Dave Stewart was a dervish all over the place. One of the five best concerts I ever saw.
tygrkhat40 I saw them too. Great show!
The only other person who comes even close to Annie Lennox is Grace Jones IMHO
This song is better than the crap today.
So ahead of their time!! How was this 1987??? This could have easily been done in the year 2022 and people would love it!! ❤️❤️
The Eurythmics were a sound and vision of the future. There was appreciation for what they did in the 80's and 90's. But who can match the self-knowing, acid-bitter, sarcastic total package here? Every element lines up. They piled such artistry on top of well-crafted music and laser-focused vocals. The beat drives into a frenzy. The lyrics keep hammering home the message. This is the anthem for the man hungry! It's more than art!
its called "culture creation" or brainwashing but yeah :)
@@buckrogers7575 The real message about culture is thru watching the three videos from that album back to back. 1. Beethoven. 2. I Need a Man. And 3. You Have Placed a Chill in my Heart.
I never heard this song in the 80s. Recently discovered it. Didn't like it at all at first. I think it was Annie's brash vocals and the icy, chaotic video. But it's quickly become one of my favorite Eurythmics songs! The bold attitude, the percussion, Dave's clever production and the GUITAR. Love it. Love it. Love it. I keep coming back again and again.
Savage is Eurythmics' most underrated gem of an album.
I had Touch and Savage and loved both of them!!
And Sweat Dreams, and Touch have gems a lot of people missed, because they didn't buy them. Some fine productions.
Peace LP in my opinion is their most underrated album.
@@Live2swim "Regrets"
(I Got That Razor Blade Smile) So do I, Baby. So do I.
I ruined the tape from listening to it, 1000 times lol
What a woman, what a repertoire! Hard to believe this is the same lady who sings "No More I Love You's"... rock, pop, electro, soul, jazz... She can do it all! Puts many current pop "Singers" to shame really.
soundseeker63 😁 true writer rules
This is how it is done people, Annie is just the best.......period. No questions, no explanations, no reasons.
GO ANNIE YOU ARE BAD ASS!!!!!!!
There needs to be an Academy Awards category for Acting In Music Videos, JUST SO ANNIE CAN WIN IT.
She has one hell of a voice.
The Eurythmics were the masters of combining music and video, no one did it better. I love this one especially, because of its ultra cheap, yet iconic, look. Everyone else at the time was spending millions on questionable videos, and in the middle of it all, Eurythmics came out with this trashy little gem, one of my all time favorite videos.
you are goddamn right. videos like these speak more than the way more expensive clips from the 80s
For me this is peak Eurythmics. Savage is where it's at.
Absolutely. I’m 39 and this still turns me out 😍
They were my favorite band, and the previous album "Revenge" was the first that I wasn't thrilled with (especially the 2nd side). Then, they put out "Savage" and I was their number one fan again! 😂
The attention to detail in such a “simple” video is astounding, every move, every facial expression, Annie and Dave were way ahead of their time.
The lighting is important, as well! Brilliant!
@@mysticmerman indeed ✌️
This my favorite of theirs. I use to play the record on a diamond needle record player. I would play it so loud neighbors would come running when they heard her scream. I wish life was still like that, I miss that innocence of listening to a NOT so innocennce song on vinyl 😢🎭💔💙
Same here! I agree. I grew up with vinyl in the 1970s. It was a really cool decade to be born into. Anyway, I still love listening to my old vinyl records and 45s. My sister and I collected a lot of 45s. Fun times back then but I also agree, not so much fun now unfortunately. It's a shame that you can never go back. At least for one day, it would be nice to go back. If only....🤔🙂
LOL. Have we met? NYC, 1987, I did the same thing. I made an answering machine message that said "Leave a message after the "______" It freaked my friends out. Happy Daze!
My neighbours wanted to hear it louder so they threw a brick through my window. Go figure
@@SamH-em6sp 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@SamH-em6sp Ironic, actually I played this so loud one day on the record player back then, that a neighbor came running over thinking something was wrong & I needed help. He heard screaming 🤣 True Story
One of the GREATEST voices EVER! Love you, Annie!
Both Dave and Annie just rip it up in this one. *applause*
Omggg we need this lipsync in Rupaul's Drag Race
@worldofwonder @rupauloffical
Annie went from "Desperate housewife" in Beethoven and entered the stage and belted it out! in this video! Great!
I don't think her character is a housewife tho. She's more mysterious, which is way hotter.
OMG...she is so frikken awesome....a true artist, a chameleon...ppl like lady gaga owe a debt a gratitude to Annie for paving the way so wonderfully for them....:)
Talent, looks, charisma, and intelligence: Annie will go down in music history as one of the all time greats!
Annie is heavily invested into her character. And we THANK YOU for the dedication.
no one mentions Dave Stewart here! His production of this track is fantastic.. all attitude
I love Dave Stewart and everything he added to Eurythmics. But, I think even he would agree. Annie owns this! Her performance and the anti-sexist theme take center stage. It was a huge risk and very provacative, so let her have the spotlight on this one!
*Ferocious and so provocative!!*
That chant that Annie rattles
off as list of demands is epic. 1:55
The two best looking androgynous female divas in music hands down: Annie Lennox and Grace Jones
SKUNK
That video is one of my favorite all time Eurythmics song's, Annie Lennox, looks like was having lots of fun , camping it up in that spot!
neosaures Mine too.
Annie is what one would call, "raw talent"... even today in 2021. Love her so much
Ive love everything shes recorded she wasn't afraid to push boundaries she's so awsome
All i have say Annie is Lord have Mercy !!
This song makes me wish Annie and Dave had gone full punk a little more. This is ferocious 💪🏼
Annie Lennox only has to say one word and immediately she is an icon 😍
annie lennox is by far one the most influential brilliant vocalist and artist of are time straight up there so much detail in all her music videos shes a goddess so much beauty she has her facial expressions are great singing just phenomenal talent out of this world her dancing and controlling the stage like she does is amazing annie is just badass and brilliant its as simple as that very unique and one of the greatest artist of all time
i love this song so much! when i was young, i did this song on stage as a transvestite - it was one of my favourit performance... now i'm 51 and enjoy the original on youtube... thanks for posting!
For some reason, I didn't know about this video when I was doing drag. If I had, it would have been a smash act to do it!
Unforgettable super confident aggressive intro.
I effing love how edgy and raw this song is.
This is dedicated to Angie ..... the best female Rock singer I ever have had the pleasure to share a stage with ...... she could hold a crowd in the palm of her hand when we performed this one !!! You passed through this world to quickly ..... Love ya!!!
❤️❤️❤️
this is one of the best pieces of art i've seen in performance. Wow, love Annie
It's not every day you see a woman pull off drag so seamlessly. Go Annie!
Women are always in drag!
Your definition of drag is limited!
Drag? Annie is a real woman, what do you mean?
Interestingly, Annie did everything from male drag to female drag in her performances.
@@danimartin818 i like her music but not all that extra garbage
@@JEMRocker That's your personal preference but I would argue that her visual art and theatrics helped make the Eurythmics as successful as they were in the age of MTV.
Five minutes of Eurythmics and my hangover is gone! It's a miracle!
I will never forget seeing her perform in Toronto when the Skydome was just new. The show was spectacular.
Oh my god, I can't believe she has a great metal scream too. She can sing like any freaking genre can't she?!
I need a man also this song says everything about what I want my man to be. Annie your one of a kind and you have soul unlike the artist of today.
At least we still have Annie lennox
I think the makeup/dress factor goes with the intensity of what the song is about.. so it works. Love you Annie
Holy mother of rock and roll! I've always loved this song!!!
Annie is electric and a real treasure to both watch as well as listen to.
Wonderful! !!
I don't think there are any people who have more stage presence than Annie Lennox. She owns the room at all times. The only one I can think of that can challenge her is Mari Boine.
I am 20 freaking years old. and I LOVE this woman's music! my daddy raised me on this music and I am SO glad he did!! I think I get more wound up over the good old music over today's butt grabbing, overly sexual "music". don't get me wrong I was also raised to be open minded to all forms of music, and some of the music played today is alright but I will probably always turn to the older stuff.
sorry for any typos, mis spellings. some days I can't even spell my name.
At 25, I hope you're still listening! 😂
That twang in her voice is Fking everything! GREAT GREAT SONG. It is such a strong answer to all the male singers horrible songs about women
Yay! Someone gets it! That's exactly what it is! It went over everyone's head!
The intensely beautiful and overly talented..incredible Annie Lennox...you can do nothing but jam!
The genius of this is astounding. Best parody of culture ever.
Another unforgettable song by Eurythmics.
'H-e-e-y!!!!"
"Is this my turn?!!!"
"Do you want me to sing now?!!!"
"OK!"
Pure Art. Great video. Classic music. I'll never stop loving this song.
Waaaaaawhh!!!!!!
@@SocialAlexNYCHa! I was going to say " You forgot Waoh!" 😂
WHOA 😮 not only is she beautiful but what a voice
We just don't have good music like this anymore. Sad.
She got - face, body, moving, voice, talent - perfect
Savage is my all time favorite album!!!
Annie Lennox is a goddess
Come back Eurythmics and produce another Album. Miss your Sounds.
One of my favorites!!!!!
Annie Lennox is the greatest
My girlfriend used to give me grief when I sang this song 😂😂🤠🤠
I love this song back then and now. Annie and Dave mixed metal, punk, hard rock and even a little rap for this song (even though she actually sings that part). Unbelievable that they mixed so much cool music together. I know they've been nominated for the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame twice. Hopefully they'll eventually be inducted. They totally deserve it!😌🙏
Annie Lennox is such an incredible talent. Wow. I absolutely adore her.
Annie seriously has the most versatile face. everytime she puts a new wig on she looks totally different. x
My friend that does hair and makeup has always said the one celebrity she always wanted to work with is Annie Lennox.
This is genius, this is not just singing this is performing, this is brilliant presentation , she does it whether live or video anywhere this is talent unequalled.
Its 2017 , WHERE IS THE BLOODY MUSIC , WHOSE HIDDEN THE REAL MUSICIANS WRITERS COMPOSERS, WHERE ARE THEY ?????????????????????????????????????
How could there be dislikes for this?
Christian Evangelicals and the Taliban?
and the usual coterie of BCSDs (big car small dicks).
All Justin Bieber fans
@@michaelandrematrhews9972 Those who can't stray past mayonnaise on white bread.
@@micksplace but, "Mayonnaise" is definitely Smashing Pumpkins best song! Here for Annie, though, and this brilliant satire!
I can see this song being done at a drag show......love the song
yep, back in the 90's I performed this song in drag at clubs in NYC....
I've done this song in drag twice. I'm not pretty as a woman, but this song and "It's Oh so Quiet" by Björk are the two songs I got a big reaction to from the crowd! 😂
I have....
THAT STRUT!!! MY HEART STOPS
Gorgeous! Gorgeous! Gorgeous!
Yeah! Definitely one of the best bands ever and definitely my favourite female musician ever hands down
Hard to believe how old this is, powerful stuff.
The EURYTHMICS ARE THE BEST POP DUO!! OF ALL TIME, the dj
Excellent! And very Jaggeresque. I was waiting for Mick's cameo.
I NEED A M.A.N!! A REAL MAN!! Where have they all gone??
Ikr...We're all wondering that.
+Tricia Starrr : and where have all the real women gone? Now we have Beyonce wanna-be's, sexpots and S&M addicts.
+Catherine S. Todd
I can only speak for myself. I'm not a Beyonce or any other kind of wannabe; nor, am I into S&M. Also, I'm not at all inclined to wonder where the women are. It's of no interest to me. I'm just a good woman, certainly worthy of a good man.
I always thought that there were more women then men in the world. But, I just did some research, and it's quite the opposite - every year there are 10million more boys born than girls! I'd love it if someone could tell me the actual ratio= approx how many men, approx how many women?? In 2011 there were 6,914,044,935 people in the world!! So why do I feel so alone? Man, woman, human; i'd just be happy to have someone to share a life with!! Where are you?? I can't be the only one that feels like this!! Wishfull thinking!!
quite right,but remember this,if you always do what you've always done,you'll always be what you've always been.
spice it up a little,turn left instead of right,talk to that guy who held your gaze a little longer than you'd anticipated,smile more,and trust me,those little things can change a life.
Ms.Lennox is a divine Muse and an archetype of the Goddess incarnate. Clear enough?
Teo Sjolbergh false
Her voice is amazing. Bloody brilliant job.
Annie lennox still beautiful to this day
So many people misunderstand this song! Annie is an anti-sexist, feminist, humanist! This song and the character are meant to parody the countless songs that objectify women. She is turning that song type on its head (something she often did). With lines like "I don't need love; forget that stuff!", she is making the man purely an object for sex. But, it's a parody! Get it! It's brilliant!
Bull shit. Any guy with an ounce of confidence would be absolutely himbled in her presence and good with it.
She’s also strong and artistic enough to be a raw, unbelievably sexy, woman. Thank you Annie for being first past the post… post.
Really? I thought pretty much everyone knew this.
@@doublestrokeroll I've found that most people don't pay attention to the lyrics. And we Americans tend to have a hard time with irony. The Brits start sprinkling irony into children's food at a very young age! 😂😂😂
@@mysticmerman lol..good point!..being canadian we're somewhere in the middle..haha..
@@doublestrokeroll, except Alanis Morissette! But, it's still a good song even though none of it's ironic! 😂😂😂
Got this song stuck in my head today ~ had to hear this again.
One of the great female Scottish vocalists.
She's Scottish?
@@caledonianamerican41 Yes, born in Aberdeen in North-East Scotland.
In the 80s music was as much about art as music
This is back in the day, when music videos were somewhat new, Eurthmics rocked the 80's. Great memories, we dyed our hair way before this tend today, history repeats itself.
I was in high school when this came out, it was freaking awesome...
My God, that was awesome!
These are seriously one in a million vocals, Annie is in a league of her own ❣
They were ahead of their time in a lot of ways :)
This is insanely good. Annie is a world treasure.
One of their best videos. No special effects. Just Annie vamping for the camera.
as a woman, yea, you go girl..THIS IS MOST empathetic song i've ever heard. Sing My Heart Out!!
She is absolutely excellent. The Miracle of Love is one side of the scale and this is the opposite. She is excellent.
Her voice. I can’t. She is one of the best singers of the 80s/90s. Powerhouse.
What another fabulous woman.
Out of this world. Love her.
