I cant believe this is live. Her pitch, tone, and control are spot on. When she switches between falsetto and full voice on the bridge, it sounds effortless. So talented!
The thing that I never noticed as a child or a teen in the late 80’s & early 90’s (cuz I was 12 years old when this album of hers dropped) is that she TRULY DOES FEEL what she sings. It’s not an “act”, despite her being so theatrical onstage. She REALLY FEELS THIS shit. Wow! 👏👏👏👏
🤝🏻👍🏼👍🏾👍SPOT ON writermachine80 ☺️ tew cute for words,Welcome Newbie 🙃 You just grew up a Lil. I'ma Newbie also tho I fight growin up tooth n nail. I still play frisbee. NOT golf frisbee 0H HELL NAW!
Absolutely love the passion in her performance and how she can go from falsetto to deep almost effortlessly. Annie Lennox is a bloody gem in the music industry. Writes her own songs, puts 100% her performances and really *connects* to her music

Reasons why this version grooves so hard: bass guitar is tight and up front in mix, kick and snare are snappy, attack on strings is short, and tambourine is way up front, creating necessary "slop" to the groove. F&^*#$%n love this.
Thank you so much, this is why I read the comments. People adding their expertise enriches the RU-vid experience. And I can hear this now... such a good version of a phenomenal song. Please keep doing it! Thank you:)
Annie was fantastic. a consummate performer and light years ahead of the time..she revolutionised the music industry and made people sit up and take notice
@Bagsy It's just an idiom, and I had a misspent youth as an astrophysicist :) The main point is she is an awesome artist, and lovely human being as far as I can tell, and she is arguably underrated.
Awesome and dynamic artist. My sister in law, Cathy Sweeney, was one of the backup singers during this performance. Cathy has a fantastic voice too... But, yeah, Annie is totally bad ass.
This song is a classic that has lasted the test of time and this woman is a legend in the music industry. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017 to find me.
People do not give Arsenio the respect for the show. he had SO many musical guests that NOBODY else would have. He even wrote his theme as he has a music degree. Check out his interview from 1989 with Annie and dave; they had an impromptu acoustic performance with Arsenio sitting in the middle like a kid in the candy store
It's so refreshing to see a great talent connect to their material like this. The dancing would probably be criticized today but it shows a fearlessness and authenticity missing in so many of today's airbrushed pop singers.
I love this performance more than the music video for the same song! Annie Lennox is one of those rare artists with TRUE talent all the way around. She sounds just as great live as she does on a recording. She definitely doesn’t need auto-tune!
Fantastic.. "Oh let the rain come down Let the wind blow through me I'm living in an empty room With all the windows smashed And I've got so little left to lose That it feels just like I'm walking on broken glass"
Oh, God, I adore her so much. A consumate singer and songwriter, an imaginative performance artist, a lovely person as far as one can tell, and starkly beautiful. Sigh. Sorry, my dear wife, thank you for understanding my fan crush.
