The album featured the songs "Here Comes The Rain Again" (1983, #4 US) and "Who's That Girl?" (1983 #17 US), a chilling, haunting melody which brought fear to many hearts. In the video, Annie Lennox plays both a man and a woman, and at the end, man-Annie kisses woman-Annie. In 1984, Annie dressed up as Elvis Presley for the Grammys, showing off the greatness of the album. Track listing all songs by Lennox and Stewart - "Here Comes the Rain Again" - 4:54
