“I’m so full of desire When you set my head on fire I need to be right by your side” From the album “Touch,” “Right by Your Side” is one of the duo’s most sparkling and joyous songs. Annie Lennox is singing a simple exclamation of love. “Right by Your Side” possesses a myriad of sounds that signals the continuing move away from synthpop though the steel drum is synthasized. There is a Calypso flavor with marimba, horn section and those whistles on the recorded track. “Right by Your Side” charted at US #29 and UK #10.

That is a goooooooooooood song. I know a lot of people like "Sweet Dreams" best, but I think this one blows "Sweet Dreams" out of the water.
