Released: January 1, 1983

Songwriter: Annie Lennox David A. Stewart

Producer: David A. Stewart

[Intro]
Who's that girl?

[Verse 1]
The language of love slips from my lover's tongue
Cooler than ice cream and warmer than the sun
Dumb hearts get broken just like china cups
The language of love has left me broken on the rocks

[Pre-Chorus]
But there's just one thing (Ah)
Just one thing (Hey!)
But there's just one thing (Oh, yeah!)
And I really wanna know

[Chorus]
Who's that girl running around with you?
Tell me, who's that girl running around with you?
Tell me, who's that girl running around with you?
Tell me, who's that girl?

[Verse 2]
The language of love has left me stony grey
Tongue tied and twisted at the price I've had to pay
Your careless notions have silenced these emotions
Look at all the foolishness your lover's talk has done

[Chorus]
Who's that girl running around with you?
Tell me, who's that girl running around with you?
Tell me, who's that girl?

[Post-Chorus]
But there's just one thing (Ah)
Just one thing (Hey!)
But there's just one thing

[Outro]
Tell me!
Tell me, who's that girl running around with you?
Tell me, who's that girl running around with you?
Tell me, who's that girl running around with you?
Tell me, who's that girl running around with you?
Tell me!
Tell me!
Tell me!
Tell me!

Eurythmics

While working as a waitress at a health food restaurant in London, Annie Lennox met Dave Stewart, with whom she formed the band Catch with singer-songwriter Peet Coombes. Catch released one single before adding two more members and changing their name to The Tourists. Under that name, the band scored five UK hits before Coombes' substance abuse broke the band apart.

Lennox and Stewart continued writing together – with Stewart moving from guitar to synthesizer and Lennox adopting an androgynous look – and formed Eurythmics. Within a few years, the duo was propelled into international stardom when “Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)”, a single from their second album, became a top ten hit in nine countries.

Over the decade, the duo moved away from their dark new wave sound and S&M imagery, evolving into a more mainstream synthpop band. In that time, they scored twenty-one UK top 40’s (ten of which were also US top 40 hits). In 1990, Eurythmics quietly disbanded and Lennox took a break from music to have her first child.
