i know what you are saying about peers but i guess it's a more co-localized community... when was this encounter happening? 80s some time? Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart / Eurythmics were huge and unavoidable in Europe at the time. i've noticed when Stewart first starting working on SN's album some people here had no clue who he was which was completely shocking to me, and so i understand they were never as huge here. guess the situation was reversed with SN - huge here and nobody knew who she was over there. did she know who Dave Stewart was at the time of that encounter? so, maybe it goes both ways and both were stunned to be unknown to the other?
