Switching to Arista Records in the U.S.,
Eurythmics made their last album together with
We Too Are One, and they went out in style. Calling upon a broad pop range, their seventh album was their best since
Be Yourself Tonight in 1985. The sound was varied, the melodies were strong, and the lyrics were unusually well-crafted. In retrospect, the album can be seen as a dry run for
Annie Lennox's debut solo album,
Diva (1992); songs like "Don't Ask Me Why" (which grazed the U.S. Top 40) serve as precursors to the dramatic ballads to come. There is, however, an air of romantic resignation throughout
We Too Are One, appropriate to its valedictory nature. The disc spawned four chart singles in the U.K. and returned
Eurythmics to number one in the album charts, but it did not substantially improve
Eurythmics' reduced commercial standing in the U.S., confirming that it was time for
Lennox and
Dave Stewart to pursue other opportunities.
