I heard in an interview from last summer on CNN that she was jumping right back into the studio to do a new album. That'd be good. New Annie album and Eurythmics remasters would make me very happy.

and how long have we been hearing about Eurythmics remasters?

Too long. I know that they'll magically materialize in my hands someday.

Annie Lennox with or without The Eurythmics is a true diva. Love her!

Finally got to see her when she opened for Sting. Returned to the stage for a few duets and I wanted Sting to leave and her to stay.

i could definitely see an Annie solo compilation at this point. Something like this.

For Annie solo, given that she only has 3 full albums I think a mixed up compilation would work better than a chronological one...


1. No More I Love You's
2. Walking on Broken Glass
3. A Thousand Beautiful Things
4. Precious
5. Waiting in Vain
6. Money Can't Buy It
7. A Whiter Shade of Pale
8. Wonderful
9. Train in Vain
10. Why
11. Pavement Cracks
12. Little Bird
13. Honestly
14. Ev'ry Time I Say Goodbye
15. Step By Step
16. Love Song For a Vampire
17. Something So Right
18. Into the West


whattya think?

It goes without saying that her voice is wonderful, but I'll forever have to dock her a couple of marks for her version of the Blue Nile's brilliant "The Downtown Lights." I thought that wasn't so much a cover as an act of violence towards one of my favourite songs.

I quite like that cover version.

Moonbeam said:

Well, maybe I'm being a little harsh because I love the original soooo much: I actually had great expectations for her version because I do think that she's a quality artist, but it just did not work for me...

Moonbeam said:

Me too. It's still probably my favorite from that album. And it made sense since she'd been working with The Blue Nile around that time.

JonSnow said:

Tight. I like it. You're good at this sorta thing.

God knows I love her, was just singing along to "I Need a Man" this afternoon, but her solo stuff has been a little to Adult Contemporary for my taste. Wish she'd loosen up a bit, and not be so New Wave Julie Andrews

JonSnow said:

Great!

But I'm missing "Put A Little Love In Your Heart"!!!
I love that song!

Co-sign

Diva is a great album.

Cloudbuster said:

I mean, has anyone seen Cloudbuster demand list for performances? Mariah Carey's list is childplay compared.

It's been open season on me around here for about the last month and a half. It's someone else's turn now.

Cloudbuster said:

Wa sit just ONE season? It feels longer...

HamsterHuey said:

Tell me about it. lol

Cheek said:

yeah... i know. i do like that song, but... it just seemed out of place. it really sounds nothing like any of her other solo work. Maybe tack it on at the end as a hidden bonus track


What does everyone think of the Annie solo version of Angel? Better than the Eurythmics version? I think it's fantastic

TRON said:

why thank ya!

JonSnow said:

It's great too, but I prefer the Eurythmics version!

JonSnow said:

Maybe mix it in with a Eury comp along with "Charlie Cat".

GangstaFam said:

oooh, Charlie Cat. Yum!!!!

JonSnow said:

Such a fucked up, fun little song, huh?

GangstaFam said:

yes it is and its CRIMINAL that this song isn't really available for a wider audience. what a great track. especially her sorta growl/meow, hehe

JonSnow said:

I really with Dave & Annie would get it together and put those remasters out.
