Hugely successful synth-pop/rock/soul music duo consisting of musician/producer Dave Stewart and songwriter/vocalist Annie Lennox. Formed in 1981 after the breakup of their former band The Tourists. Best known for their 1982 album and single 
Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) and their striking visual image, most notably Lennox’s androgynous persona. They have described their music style as “for intelligent dancers”. Both Stewart and Lennox have had success outside of Eurythmics. They have sold over 75 million albums worldwide.
After a Krautrock inspired debut, their second and third albums were firmly in the electronic avant garde - as befitting their striking visual style. Though Touch and Sweet Dreams sold to gold/platinum on the strength of the song “Sweet Dreams”. Their fourth album (not counting the soundtrack 1984) Be Yourself Tonight went double platinum and planted them firmly in the (synth) pop genre. From this album came several singles, but ironically the single lingering on play lists and on peoples minds is their avant garde single “Sweet Dreams”.
Stewart was once married to former Bananarama and Shakespear’s Sister member Siobhan Fahey.
In the 70s Lennox and Stewart were a couple.

Now I'm curious JerkelHyde... Which of their 30-something world-charters from 1982 to 2005 is this "one hit" you speak of? (It's "Hungry Like the Wolf" isn't it?)

As true as that may be, whenever anyone says Soft Cell, most people only ever know Tainted Love, they may have heard other songs but they rarely assosiate those songs with the band... I only chose Soft Cell because I couldn't actually think of any other 80s bands with few well known tracks.

'One hit wonder? You appear to be confusing them with Soft Cell ' Soft Cell weren't one hit wonders. They are one of the best bands of the 80s. They had 5 hits in the top 5 and much more in the top 40.
