i'm a huge Annie Lennox fan...

but her most famous radio hits are all my least favorites.

walking on broken glass
no more i love yous
into the west

...i could ALL do without.

legend in my living room
cold
money can't buy it
take me to the river
can't get next to you
a thousand beautiful things
wonderful
I'll leave it alone babe...just be me

I'm not especially fond of her version of Take Me to the River.
I do like her Can't Get Next to You and Wonderful is, well, wonderful

I still love Why and I like Broken Glass too.

She has so much soul and passion in her voice.

It's the song that made me a fan, but my favorite will probably always be "The Gift".

I actually love her cover of Whiter Shae of Pale which I'm sure I'm supposed to hate with that sort of nursery school chime intro, but I just heard it one time and it hit me. I like Waiting In Vain as well boxed

Her rant at the end of Why is a favourite.

I love that song too, i actually think it`s much better than the original.
The whole Medusa album is brilliant.

I kinda agree with you.....The songs that were not released seemed to be the better tracks, especially, Cold and "Stay by me". I have not played that CD in a while....thanks, you have given me something to listen to on the way home from work.
