:otheruses|Revenge (disambiguation)

"Revenge" is the sixth album by pop duo Eurythmics, released in 1986 (see 1986 in music).

It followed the direction of their previous "Be Yourself Tonight" album to a more commercial "rock band" style.

The album included several hit singles and was a big commercial success. Its release was followed by an extensive world tour. A concert from the Australian leg of this tour was also released on video.

On November 14 2005, SonyBMG repackaged and released Eurythmics' back catalog as "2005 Deluxe Edition Reissues." Each of their eight studio albums' original track listings were supplemented with bonus tracks and remixes.
