On September 8, 1995, I was at a birthday party picnic in Central Park. We all went for a walk after, and stumbled upon this concert, which was a free surprise concert not widely advertised. I found myself standing 30 ' from stage right, and had a bird's eye view of Annie Lennox as she sang this song. Words cannot express how infinitely magical that moment was, the night air in the park, and her crystal clear voice, the essence of September.
That is absolutely beautiful if that is even the correct phrase. That would have been just dynamic! I am so glad for you that you have that place in time and memory. Thank you for sharing that:-)
I’ve watched so many videos of covers of this song. Although all those singers a VERY talented, none of them fit this song. These songs are perfectly composed for her unique voice. It’s not about the pitch or the melody it’s truly her voice that is the trademark of her songs.
This song is a cover, for those who didn’t know already. The group is The Lover Speaks. She altered some of the lyrics (a bit presumptuous when the original was brilliant). Go find it.
We know it's a cover its from her cover album Medusa and she takes whats kind of a bland song and makes it into something else and absolutely makes it her song ❤
This reminds me of my mother so I know you hate her and everything but anyway I'm trying to tell you that I love you and I don't care what you say she was always anyway my heart is breaking anyway I just love Annie Lennox I always have so please understand it reminds me of my mother please
I love Annie. Not a fan of her first chum, Stewart. Also I read a later guy tried to black mail her using intimate pictures. Annie needs a solid guy like me. Be well Annie.
Thanks we know. Annie's interpretation is brilliant though! Listening to the original is a hidden treasure...the passionate way he sings it is otherworldly, because he wrote it ❤
