I've Tried Everything

Eurythmics · Boxed [2005]

The truth of life is the greatest gift

But I don't think I can make it fit

And who would guess it would come to this

When I've tried everything



And I should know but I can't explain

The endless noise sounding in my brain

Who would've thought that you could feel such pain

When you've tried everything



Yea.. you're a loser now

Yea.. you're a loser now



I should be cool

But I'm burning hot

I should be good

But I fell apart

Don't look at me now don't even start

Cause I've tried everything



Yea.. You're a loser now

Yea.. You're a loser now

I've Tried Everything

The track features Annie Lenon's distinctive vocal delivery, characteristic of the duo's synth-pop and new wave sound that defined the 1980s. While the song was not part of their original studio discography, its inclusion in Boxed highlights the enduring appeal of their catalog. The recording captures the emotional depth often found in Lenon's solo work, blending atmospheric production with themes of personal struggle and resilience. It serves as a testament to the group's ability to craft memorable music that resonates across decades, offering listeners a glimpse into their artistic evolution and the emotional core of their songwriting.
