There Must Be An Angel (Playing With My Heart)
Eurythmics · Live 1983 - 1989 (Disc 2)
Yeah!
No-one on earth could feel like this.
I'm thrown and overblown with bliss.
There must be an angel.
Playing with my heart.
I walk into an empty room.
And suddenly my heart goes "boom"!
It's an orchestra of angels.
And they're playing with my heart.
(Must be talking to an angel)
No-one on earth could feel like this.
I'm thrown and overblown with bliss.
There must be an angel.
Playing with my heart.
And when I think that I'm alone.
It seems there's more of us at home.
It's a multitude of angels.
And they're playing with my heart.
Chorus repeats.
I must be hallucinating.
Watching angels celebrating.
Could this be reactivating.
All my senses dislocating?
This must be a strange deception.
By celestial intervention.
Leavin' me the recollection.
Of your heavenly connection.
I walk into an empty room.
And suddenly my heart goes "boom"!
It's an orchestra of angels.
And they're playing with my heart.
Yeah..La la la la la la...Harder..Harder...La la la la la la..Harder..Harder..Yeah!
There Must Be An Angel (Playing With My Heart)
Released on the Eurythmics live album Live 1983–1989 (Disc 2), this track showcases Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart's signature blend of new wave and electronic pop. The song features Lennox's distinctive vocal delivery, characterized by a haunting, breathy tone that contrasts with the band's driving, synth-heavy instrumentation. As a live recording, it captures the raw energy of their performances during the mid-1980s, a period when the duo redefined the genre with their innovative use of technology and theatrical stage presence. While the song shares thematic elements with their studio hits, its live arrangement highlights the band's dynamic interplay and the enduring power of their sound in concert settings.
