The soundtrack to a fairly unknown film, Lily Was Here was Dave Stewart's first solo effort. It's an atmospheric, subdued effort, highlighted by a revamped "Here Comes the Rain Again," with Annie Lennox on lead vocals, and a handful of tracks featuring saxophonist Candy Dulfer.
The musical soundtrack contains the smash hit saxophone instrumental "Lily Was Here" as performed by female premiere sax player Candy Dulfer.
David A. Stewart invited Candy Dulfer, who had not previously released any of her material, to play the saxophone on this instrumental. The single became a major hit and stayed at the #1 position for five weeks in The Netherlands. Because of this success, the single was also released in the United Kingdom, Europe and the United States.
There is also a soulful and moving bare bones acoustical version of the Eurythmics'1984 hit Here Comes the Rain Again as sung by Annie Lennox. It is a VERY rare version, probably not to be found anywhere else.
It has a very live yet intimate and atmospheric sound ! The entire album score was written and performed by the other half of the Eurythmics duo Dave Stewart. To hear him produce and perform this soundtrack is surely a departure from anything he did while with the Eurythmics; this soundtrack contains no cold synthesized electronic sounds.
The overall tone of the project is close to even resembling the French soundtrack La Femme Nikita as performed by Eric Serra. Yet, Lily has a very distinct and rich ambient moody sound all to itself. It is a very gripping and compelling musical score !...
