OMG awesome! I love geolocating stuff like this. Thanks for posting!
reading 1984 while hearing this with headphones... truly immersive.
Whoa, that’s a fantastic idea. I just finished the book but I think I’ll read it all over while listening to this too!
@@mayarooskitena185 i don't know how you could read such a serious and dense book over music but I'm sure the experience must be pleasuring.
Could always watch the movie
For some reason this music always reminds me of some sort of dystopian alternate reality set in a post-war South Bronx or Kearny New Jersey. I just think of dirty potholes streets and dust and pollution and gray buildings everywhere.
@@mayarooskitena185 By the way, Mayaroo, you are not missing much with the film version of the novel. It simply failed to capture any kind of totalitarian mood. The whole thing was actually tedious and boring. Amazingly, the sound-track and album were both stunning artistic statements inspired by the novel. Amen!
Just shows how gifted Eurythmics were.

Winston and his diary: how can so much melancholy be fit into one song?
im happy and sad
As great an entertainer as Annie Lennox was.The popular released track 1984,should of been as this purely instrumental with no hysterical interference,particularly the ministry of Love/War which was ruined by Annie Lennox.
@@grantjacob7327 Agreed, apart from "Julia"
Melancholic, but also kinda nostalgic in a strange way.

'Winston and his diary' music playing while Winston takes out his hidden diary and the man with glasses on the viewscreen confesses his crimes is easily the best and most haunting scene of the movie.

To the past...
Or to the future.
To an age where thought is free...
From the age of Big Brother.
From the age of the Thought Police...
From a dead man.... Greetings!
I'm glad I'm not the only one staring agog at this post and drinking in the audio. Years back I would have easily paid over $100 to have this audio in any format... and now here it just 'is' on youtube. Casual listeners and viewers have no concept of how earth-shattering this internet playground we now have is. Thank you so much for posting this. I'm truthfully almost in tears listening to this and remembering how significant this movie and the music was for me years ago.
Been after this score for years and gave up, very happy bunny today.
It’s a real shame we can’t get this version outside of RUclips though, the score the Eurythmics released is really quite different to this.
Oh My Gosh AGREE. 15 year old me is rocking back and forth watching the COVID roll over us and yet THRILLED with this quarantiney gem.
While it doesn't appear to be available on the streaming services, I didn't have to work terribly hard to find the LP. That doesn't help in all circumstances, obviously. Here I am, too!
Moments such as these give me some gratitude for the internet. That can be rare these days. Glad you found a gem.
This score is so perfect for the atmosphere of the story. It's bleak, alienating, unsettling and even terrifying at times, but also fascinating and dreamlike. It's exactly as I imagined Airstrip One to sound when I first read the book.
Also, it contrasts perfectly with the much more old-fashioned orchestral music used by The Party, like "Oceania, Tis for Thee." This music is totally different than that.
Very well said. I agree wholeheartedly.
I know! I'm glad the producers didn't just go with some average orchestral soundtrack. This music takes the film to anew level.
@Ian Miles You rigth.
@@chatnoir1579 It has to be said though that the Eurythmics musci was added against the director Michael Radford's wishes. I agree with other comentators that I think it works very well and Radford was wrong.
Would love to see some RUclips reaction vids to the movie.
Dead Insects was unsettling and creepy, I love it

1984 OST is an electronic masterpiece..Still sounds brilliant 35+ years later. It merits a special edition with unreleased tracks. My fave track was Julia ,, hauntingly beautiful ice cold electronica
“Winston’s Diary” and it’s variations always stuck out to me when I watched the movie. The sense of melancholy and helplessness presented in a haunting melody that’s sounds so fanciful and dream-like is so strong and sets the mood so perfectly. I’ve been wondering where I could get a clean version of that track as well as the others for quite some time - now it’s here and free to listen to. For the time you’ve put into compiling these into a cohesive video, thank you.
I love how the screen is blurry despite being in HD, the fuzziness either emphasizes the fact the golden country is all in Winstons dream or perhaps that what we're seeing is a CCTV video from within a tree, the same camera that would have recorded Winston and Julia.
I uploaded a very low-bitrate video of a still shot to get this onto RUclips quickly. The compression algorithm of RUclips did the rest. It's a happy accident, but one that suits the music perfectly.
Doubleplus good!

I don't think I have ever seen a youtube video that people were so thankful for. Wow. Thank you so much for uploading this.
Agreed, as my cassette tape of the soundtrack died years ago.
A friend of mine had the album....
The Winston’s diary theme makes me feel that while Winston knew he was living through a very dark time, he shared the timeless burdens and secret hopes with all that came before and would come far after.

Such beautiful music for such a dystopian future that is happening all around us
It is I can hear them.. different frequency's
Julia & Winston is a hauntingly beautiful piece. One of the few frames of colour throughout the movie.
Thank you for sharing
Can I just ask HOW ON EARTH DID YOU MANAGE TO FIND THIS?! I thought this didn't exist apart from its inclusion in the film... Now I'm happy. very happy. and this is amazing!
antunivanovic I want to cry. This is amazing
antunivanovic Attention! Your attention please!
found this CD in a used CD store in Prague, for cheap. Decided not to buy it, as I found a CD I'd been wanting awhile. I might go back and pick this up... or those other ones I found there, Dio - Lock Up The Wolves, RHCP - Mother's Milk, Yes - some album from 1982 or something
antunivanovic double plus good I dare say
I had a cassette tape of this in 80s.
Dave Stewart personally dismissed this music ever being available and appeared to be totally ambivalent about its whereabouts.I know this because I wrote to him a few years ago asking about the isolated score. The original Virgin records 'For the love of Big Brother' soundtrack was one of my first albums and has truly endured over the decades. Watching the film and hearing the variations was both wonderful and cruel as fans of the official release knew that these alternative versions must exist somewhere and it seemed a music-crime that they weren't available without dialogue from the film over the top of them. I cannot thank you enough for finally scratching a nearly forty year old itch by uploading this. I'd happily buy this as an album, don't really understand why a deluxe reissue complete with this score has never been released, it seems a bit of a wasted opportunity for the band to make some extra cash rather than watch people copying lower quality audio from RUclips. That said, I'll happily settle for what we have here as it's exactly the thing obsessive types like me have been gagging for, decade after decade. THANK YOU
this is amazing
Is it true that they agonised over this score.....it took alot longer than they imagined it would, and it nearly split them up? or is this just fiction? It's maybe why neither Dave or Annie talk about this score or the shortened resulting album soundtrack. I just think both the original score, and resulting album are masterpieces. So ahead of their time. They still sound fresh today.
Eurythmics weren't the only group to put their reputation on the line and completely get out of their comfort zone - U2 did the same 11 years later with their 'Passengers soundtrack'. Like Eurythmics '1984', that too is a criminally underrated album, and also a masterpiece.
@@robtyman4281 or Wang Chung for the brilliant score for To Live and Die in LA
IIRC it was the movie director who said after the film’s release that he wished the Eurythmics were not involved, he favored another composer. Dave and Annie said they had no idea and wouldn’t have done it had they known. Strange given how amazing the music is.
Although the Eurythmics were commissioned to write the incidental music for the film, in the end only "Julia" was used (for the end credits). The director Michael Radford preferred and mostly used the more traditional compositions of Dominic Muldowney in the film. This may help explain the enigmatic publication history of Eurythmic's 1984 score (I have the original cassette tape somewhere).
The Eurythmics score fits the film like a glove. Especially the Room 101 song "The Worst Thing In The World"..... That music always gets to me... It's "freaky". I prefer the overall mixed Theatrical score to just having the Orchestral score on it's own.
Great movie!
"Your fear, Winston, is rats"
beautiful, when i was watching the movie i couldnt help but note how good the soundtrack was
To the past or to the future, to an age when thought is free, from the Age of Big Brother, from the Age of the Thought Police, from a dead man, greetings.
Beautifully stated.
I think this should be re-released together with a remastered version of "1984 - For the love of Big Brother" as a double album.
I like the soundtrack as a stand alone album, but it was completely wrong for the movie. Edgy 80's synth music was really out of place.
Oh my god, THANK YOU for posting this! "Julia and Winston" has haunted me ever since I saw the film back in '84...and to get to hear so much more of their actual score in clean form is a bewildering delight.
Euracaille it's the best Eurythmics song ever
Julia and her father Winston.
For the benefit of some others who have posted in gratitude but without the same awareness of what's actually presented here, I'll clarify that this is the part of the soundtrack to "1984" that Eurythmics recorded that got used in one of two forms of the film's original release, the other largely featuring music by Dominic Muldowney (but also stapling "Julia" onto the credits, which is why Eurythmics are credited at all in that version). The Muldowney soundtrack is what director Michael Radford insisted on and is used on the long-overdue DVD release...but the Eurythmics soundtrack was included as an alternate audio track, and that's what this is (and why it's notably separated from overlying movie sound).
The "Nineteen Eighty-Four (For the Love of Big Brother)" album Eurythmics released around the same time (late 1984) carried the loaded-understatement disclaimer "Music derived from Eurythmics' original score of the motion picture '1984'." Music you hear in this RUclips post appears in quite different but recognizable form on the Eurythmics album; for example, what is here the wave-upon-sonic-wave "Julia and Winston" (as appropriate for what's happening in the film) takes song form on the album as "For the Love of Big Brother." Three or four other tracks on the album reflect material that was incorporated in what got used; "Doubleplusgood," "Greetings from a Dead Man," "Winston's Diary," and "Sexcrime" didn't make it to the final soundtrack cut, except in that "Sexcrime" is just "Room 101" in a major key and with chirpy stuff and a melody.
Some of us saw this film in its theatrical release with the Eurythmics score, but most people didn't. I know it was also included on at least one US form on VHS, because that's the form I have it in.
Thanks again, Coda, for posting this. Obviously we're not alone in our appreciation of it!
"Julia and Winston" has haunted me ever since the day I watched the film, too. I wonder what about it is so captivating and pleasant to an ear.
Yamaha DX7 nostalgia!
Big Brother is real, and he goes by many names. Facebook, iPhone, Google, etc.

@@darudesandstrom1067dude I swear, these people wanted to be oppressed so badly, probably too damn privileged lmao
I'm overwhelmed.
I just watched the 1984 film for the first time, and this Eurythmics score was probably my favorite aspect of this (though the cinematography and John Hurt's performance were fantastic too). This score is so atmospheric: bleak but beautiful, eerie and dream-like.
I find it rather surrealistic.
Yeah, the movie was underwhelming to be kind. But did succeed in the areas you mentioned. The whole movie in general had the atmosphere right.
Back in the day I was a big eurythmics fan. I remember buying this on cassette, sticking it in my walkman and being blown away. It was strange, bizarre. And then I realized it was recorded in reverse! My cassette was laid down backwards! I went back and changed it but I kinda wished I'd kept it. I think a lot of this album is done in reverse and that cassette was done on purpose.
Actually some of it was done in reverse, evidently--certainly the opening of "I Did It Just the Same" on the "Nineteen Eighty-Four" album, which was "Dead Insects" on this soundtrack. Myself, I found the album track "For the Love of Big Brother" (which in the soundtrack is "Julia and Winston") to be surprisingly countable on two different starting beats, so maybe there's some reverse-recording basis for our impressions.
I've played it in Great Britain; now it is Airstrip One.
I was born in 1979 and thus my infancy was in the 80's, despite the best endeavours of folks from church and teachers to bring colour and vibrancy-
Thatcher's UK proved to be a bleak and confusing time. The trips from Devon to Scotland on the trains of 'British Rail' could easily fit into the backing music that this album provides... trains stopped for no real reason in the middle of the Lake District and Borders (sometimes for hours on end). Few, very few really enjoyed the 'high-life' while the rest of us were at the mercy of the authorities - and the 'truth' being belched out by the corporations and corrupt TV presenters.
fast forward to present day of the Rt Hon Pritti Patel in charge of the present day Home Office (Ministry of Truth) and life seems full-score back to the dystopian vison this music evokes.
What perfect timing Orwell's book in 1984 exactly the time of Eutythmics. None could compose more beautifully, capturing the feel and soul of Orwell's 1984 enigma! Most creative and unforgettable soundtrack ever!
10:52 when young Winston is running after discovering his mom and sister; this beat stays in my head when I hear it. So haunting.
Watching the movie for the first time right now. Had to pause to find the amazing score. This scene especially captured me by its beauty.
" Winston and his diary " really takes me into a world made of nostalgia and love.
I am so happy to find this. There are remakes of the original movie where a lot of the original music was replaced with something else. I have an old VCR tape of the movie and it is the only one with the original score.
I’ve been looking for 2:03 for years now
Thank you so much for that. It's a tragedy that they never did anything else again even remotely close to this kind of music. 1984 is my favorite Eurythmics album by very, very far.
Agreed. I was not a fan of their commercial stuff.
Truely underrated... Amazing book, amazing movie, amazing soundtrack.
Interesting score, it gives a very surrealistic tone for the movie in my opinion, which i suppose fits for the world of 1984 and the mind of Winston.
I first saw the movie in my high school film study class. The teacher had the OST on vinyl and offered to make tapes for any one who wanted one, circa 1996. Loved it ever since. This is the first time i've seen the actual score surface! good on you!
Should be required viewing for every high school in America.
not only in America!
Had front row seats to 1984 in wharf theater last Friday, it was brilliant.
Although the Eurythmics were commissioned to write the incidental music for the film, in the end only "Julia" was used (for the end credits). The director Michael Radford preferred and mostly used the more traditional compositions of Dominic Muldowney in the film. This may help explain the enigmatic publication history of this score. I have the original cassette tape somewhere, probably quite fragile now.
For me, this is the best music that The Eurythmics ever produced, by a country mile.
Whoah. Been trying to find a compilation of these Eurythmics 1984 tunes for-FRIKKIN-ever, thanks!
This is some double plus ungood thoughtcrime but what the hell!
Listening to this while playing the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games is perfect.
Michael Radford made a brilliant adaptation but he was completely wrong about the score if you read about the controversy surrounding it. The Eurhythmics score is far superior and suits the bleak, hopeless dystopian atmosphere perfectly, so much so that I can only watch the version with the Eurhythmics score instead of the orchestral one. Especially the piece at 4:00
In all fairness to the director, who could imagine Eurythmics being able to come up with this kind of music at the time? They had never done anything similar nor have they ever done anything like it afterwards.
It is a beautiful and wonderful soundtrack.
The movie is gorgeous as well.
Thank you very much for sharing, Coda.
Best of the Universe to you.
Regards and hugs from Chile.
👌👌👌
Have always had a special affection for this soundtrack to this movie, EURYTHMICS PURE ARTISTRY
Rip Richard Burton 1925-1984 and John Hurt 1940-2017
Damn 1925 - 1984 what a coincidence rip
Room 101 on the album is unparalleled. The electric guitar is sublime. My favorite Eurythmics album... took This City Never Sleeps template into Orwellian depths. The quality of the sounds on this treasure (I am so grateful was uploaded ) are pitch perfect to the book. The movie had so much potential but was a victim of editing and compromise. The colors and atmosphere and actor choices had so much potential. These sounds are just phenomenal... singular... mesmerizing... Thom Yorke seems like the biological descendant/replicant of this base code... ;)
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. In my dreams, Dave and Annie play this live.
There’s something haunting about the Julia and Winston song..
This is incredible! Love the book, the movie, and especially the music!
So hauntingly beautiful! I’m so happy to have found this here!
I was lucky enough to have found this original soundtrack through an international record store! Lucky me! I love the Eurythmics and had to have this as part of my collection!
Ok, first off, thank you sO MUCH for posting this. I absolutely love all songs from the Ministry of Love. Been trying to find this but never could. Praise to you. Thank you!!!!!
For some reason I had to watch the movie again and stopped during that scene when Winston steals the chocolate bar from his sister to see is I could hear more of that sound track and here it is! Thanks!
Am I the only one who gets the eeriest, weirdest, most nostalgic, confused feeling from the song at 10:23? I can't even find the words to describe how this song makes me feel
I get one from 9:22
Yes! The first time I heard it from the movie it gave me this intense feeling. It's incredible.
Same for me
The vocals of Annie Lennox give the track a certain dreadful sorrow that never lets this piece of music leave your mind.
Soooo good. Was rewatching the film and this brought me here. It's ridiculous that this isn't on album they released. I assume that's a synclavier? Sounds amazing
This should have been released it is perfection
It was released. I bought in when it first came out. still have it.
A wonderful discovery! It would be great if this was finally re-released and remastered with the original album.
The director Michael Radford had a different score commissioned for the film, but the studio replaced it with this one instead (and Radford was really pissed about it). In this case the studio was right, this score is incredible.
Jonathan Palmquist - I have the original score by Dominic Muldowney on CD. It's excellent.
Actually it was the other way round. The Eurythmics were commissioned to do the whole film score, but the money men didn’t like it, and only “Julia” (I think from memory) was used for rolling the closing credits. The Eurythmics themselves were shocked by the treachery, and went ahead and released the whole score themselves, while the original score was forgotten. What is remembered is the Eurythmics film score even if the bulk was not actually used in the film. One in the eye for Big Brother.
@@garthlyon The theatrical version featured Eurythmics music throughout. The only orchestral part was the Oceania song. The 2003 DVD was the first time the orchestral score was made available.
As a writer I was inspired by the movie for my own series about a new totalitarian world

It is happening!
Yes, the ministry of truth is doing a great job... 😓
I was a big fan of Eurythmics growing up, but when I first discovered their 1984 album I noticed it was quite different until I realized that it is a soundtrack. Then I've been curious to what made Dave and Annie agree to make a soundtrack to a grim controversial film after 3 albums. But after years of listening to the album and finding this score proves to show how capable they are at experimenting different material and pulling off different and intriguing sounds.
Now I think it would be cool if Annie Lennox and David Stewart were to get back together, picture themselves back in the 80s, and make music for Stranger Things!
One of the best film soundtracks ever!
Still sounds awesome as it did when I heard it 36 years ago. I received it on cassette for my Birthday.Best Gift ever.
Gobsmacked. Absolutely. This is the find of the year for me. Thanks for the upload !!
Thank you so much for this! Such a beautiful score
Wow, like everyone else I am so happy to have found this stunning score. One of the most atmospheric movie scores I can ever recall. Used to have the album on a cassette back in the day...long gone now :-/ (wasn't there some dispute between the band and the record company that meant it wasn't reissued?). That countryside from the frame above - I used to live in the part of England (Wiltshire) where this section was shot, amidst its beautiful chalk hills. They do look like that and they are wonderful.
My soundtrack for the Cold War in East Berlin 1985 and 1986. Memory flood. Lord cigarettes. Bitter wind. Kurfürstendamm insanity.
I’ve been looking for that first trackfor years!! You’re a saint!
TY from me too! Have wanted this for a quarter of a century...
Like a broken fairground ride that won't let you off :(
I've been searching well over 10 years for this , thank you so much !!!
I feel like this is a modern theme song
I have been looking for this for SO LONG. I fell in love with "For the Love of Big Brother" as it was called upon release and never knew this existed until I saw the film around 1989. Thanks for the upload !!
Although the hilly landscape is simple, it still evokes some haunting.
This is one of the most inspiring scores I’ve heard.
Eurythmics were so ahead of its times! Thank you for uploading. Just discovered this after 30 some odd years.
The opening theme perfectly sums just how miserable it must be for Winston to be the “only insane man” alive. I hope to find more films like this.
My Canadian hometown library had this on tape not long after the movie/year. Got my own copy in the Piccadilly Circus HMV when I went on a high school uk/euro tour. Absolutely haunted by ‘Julia’. So much so I wrote my own novel based on the song.
Truly an underrated, beautiful score.
Dead insects.... so haunting
...and cheap perfume, and the whiteness of her mask...
Painted very thick
2$
I did her just the same
I wake up and peer through weary eyes at a world so dark.
this is one of the best soundtracks/scores ever written....never knew it was the eurithmics
Most of this music reminds me of the distant past of the UK post war days. Bombed buildings everywhere, tradition has fallen etc. Its just so blank and dreamlike.
To an age when thought is free. From the age of big brother, from the age of the thought police, from a dead man, greetings...
This is the real soundtrack and much better than what was released in stores years ago.
Eurythmics were epic musicians
Love this soundtrack. Makes me feel part of the secret and private life of someone alive and breathing.
This gives me images of me visiting a whole new planet full of new life
Thanx so much! I search this concrete score for a long time.
I can't thank you enough for posting this. It's a dream come true. :)
As an electronic music enthusiast and producer myself since forever I can honestly say that this score has influenced many famous artists I mean moby's go ..the melodies are the same..I was unfortunately only 5 yrs old when this came out..how diverse and pioneer as a band eurythmics are..they are truly a creative and they bend all standards ..if you are a true music lover then this is for you and surely is for me..
A big thank you because I m a superfan and I couldn't find it..❤️
Awesome upload. Thank you
00:00 Eerie but at the same time also nostalgic in a strange sense.
Thank you so much! SO so much! Only last year I couldn't find any of this!
I just watched yesterday the movie, impressed by this memorable soundtrack and digging for it comes as no surprise that such musical commentary was done by Eurythmics... So emotional tunes!
