Eurythmics biography

On 7 November 2005, Eurythmics released Ultimate Collection, a remastered greatest successes package with two new songs. One of them, "I've Got a Life," was released as a single and scored no.14 on the UK singles chart, as well as spending three consecutive weeks at number 1 on Billboard's Hot Dance Music/Club Play in the U.S., something the duo had not done since 1999 with the chart-topper "17 Again."

On 14 November 2005 RCA re-released their eight studio albums in remastered and expanded editions featuring rare b-sides, remixes and unreleased songs. The remasters are available separately as digipaks with expanded artwork and together in a collector's box set, Boxed. However, the 1984 soundtrack album 1984 (For the Love of Big Brother) was not included in this re-release campaign as Virgin Records holds the rights to that album.

Lennox and Stewart also performed together on a number of TV shows (such as Top of the Pops) to promote the greatest successes album as well as the single.
