"Thorn in My Side" is a song recorded by British pop music duo Eurythmics. It was released as a single from the duo's Revenge album in the UK and the U.S. Written by band members Annie Lennox and David A. Stewart, the song is a cast-off to an unfaithful lover. "Thorn in My Side" was produced by Stewart.
After one mid-charting UK hit from Revenge, "Thorn in My Side" became Eurythmics' ninth Top 10 single, reaching number five in the UK singles chart. To date, it is their last appearance in the UK Top 10. In the United States, the track stalled at number sixty-eight on the Billboard Hot 100.
