As promised, a step away from Eurovisions of Yesteryear in today’s post. Today’s voice of an angel belongs to Annie Lennox. Annie, to me, has such a unique, distinctive voice that sets her apart from other singers. Initially, however, when I first heard her, I wasn’t so sure.
I don’t know whether it was the whole Eurythmics thing, or the link to punk rock (albeit through the ‘New Wave’ genre) something didn’t gel with me in the early days. I can’t say punk rock was a particular favourite music style of mine, but that may also have had something to do with the fact that I couldn’t make out what was being sung anyway.
Eventually, Annie became a firm favourite, and now I love to hear her sing. She has a way that makes me want to listen to her sing and not just listen to her singing. There is a subtle difference. And, she makes me Feel Good, which is always a bonus.
In the Eurythmics, she sung about an angel:
Then, she sung about a vampire:
And, in the same breath, she even sung about a phoenix:
Well, sort of… a Little Bird told me it was a phoenix…
