"You’re AMAZING!" Annie Lennox gives BC dance duo a special shoutout
Scottish singer and multi-Grammy Award winner Annie Lennox is singing the praises of a pair of local dancers.
On Friday, Lennox shared a video of the two dancing to a single she released while part of the Eurythmics, “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This).”
“Wowza!! I just saw this incredible interpretation of SWEET DREAMS,” she tweeted. “Gentlemen..You’re AMAZING!!! Thanks for choosing our song!”

When Lennox asked, “ps.. Who ARE you????” Twitter users were quick to find the duo — Funkanometry from Vancouver Island.
Jacksun Fryer and Carlow Rush make up Funkanometry and admitted to Daily Hive that at first they didn’t know who Lennox was but knew enough to know she is “a big deal.”
“I definitely had to learn a little bit more about Annie Lennox to see how crazy it actually was,” Fryer explained and added, “now that I kind of have done a little bit more research, I’m like, ‘damn, this is insane.'”

Fryer and Rush posted the video about a month ago and did relatively well the pair said. But when Lennox reshared it on her social media, millions of views rolled in they said.
“It’s like, popping off all all over again,” Rush said. “Our Twitter completely went crazy … I think we’ve got like 40,000 new followers.”
