- Annie Lennox made a surprise appearance at the Polar Music Prize Banquet 2017.
Sting and Wayne Shorter received the Polar Music Prize on June 15, 2017 at a ceremony at Konserthuset Stockholm in Sweden.
Several artists honored the Laureates together with the The Royal Stockholm Philarmonic Orchestra, led by maestro Hans Ek. One exceptional highlight of the evening was Annie Lennox surprising Sting by attending the evening. To honour him, Lennox performed Sting's ”Fragile”.
José Feliciano also read the citation for Sting ( • Sting receives the Pol... ):
"The 2017 Polar Music Prize is awarded to the singer, musician and composer Sting, real name Gordon Sumner, from Wallsend in Northumberland. Sting grew up in a shipyard town in northeastern England. As a child his thoughts and dreams roamed as far as the ships that sailed from his town. Internal and external travel has also characterised his music. As a member of the trio The Police, and later as a solo artist, Sting has never sat back and rested on his laurels; he has put down his anchor in more musical harbours than perhaps any other artist of his generation. As a composer, Sting has combined classic pop with virtuoso musicianship and an openness to all genres and sounds from around the world. Sting is a true citizen of the world, who has also been indefatigable in using his position as an arena-filling artist to promote human rights."
The Polar Music Prize was founded in 1989 by the late Stig ”Stikkan” Anderson, one of the true greats in the history of popular music. As the publisher, lyricist and manager of ABBA, he played a key role in their enormous success. Its name stems from Anderson’s legendary record label, Polar Music.
The Polar Music Prize is one of the most prestigious and unique music prizes in the world, crossing over musical boundaries and awarded to individuals, groups and institutions in recognition of exceptional achievements.

#PolarMusicPrize #Sting #AnnieLennox - Hudba
The privilege is not only Annie's, it's Sting's also. Doesn't matter how big you are, if Annie Lennox is performing your song it's such a huge privilege.
Hear hear. So so so so true.
That is so true...well said.
Did you hear Gregory Porter nail It's Probably Me?
I think that sting thought the same thing
She sounded sincere in her introduction.... if not, it would've been condescending and smarmy.
I suddenly broke out in tears....and it is already 2024...OMG
The feeling... So straight to the heart .. 😓... Annie .... Deep respect, she made me emotional again .. aarghh
And me 😢
me too
@@patrickstoute4085😢
And me
The talent of Annie Lennox is only eclipsed by how gracious she has always carried herself. Great tribute for Sting
My late partner worked with her for a short while. He said she is lovely, with a great sense of humour but she has really bad stage fright, even now!
She loves his music more than him😂
@wrayewenigmann3696
A true Artist❤
A true lady along being a wonderful artist…
Annie Lennox has a genius IQ and the voice of a Siren. I would shipwreck myself to see her in concert again. Wrapped in what looked like leopard skin, feral and fearless, she tore the roof off the Orpheum. She's right up there with Paul Rodgers and Freddie, a rock goddess, born from original sin. She redeems us every time she sings a note. I hope she lives forever.
*Freddie
but yes, you are so right!
Beautiful comment - thank you
You are an amazing writer! I could visualize everything.🥰
That was very beautifully stated.😊
Oh my God. I knew she was a force but this was unreal
Holy f*****g shit. She just came out of nowhere, sat by the piano, played it like Chopin while singing one of the most touching songs in history with such a deeply sad and emotional voice, absolutely nailing it, making Sting cry, just minutes after he said "WOW" when she entered the stage - this just has to be the definition of pure art. Annie You ROCK!!!
you must be under 40 years old
@@stucruise1 Yeah, I'm 33 but I do know who Annie is plus I'm a big fan of both Sting and Her :)
Agreed !
Yet there are people who do not believe in extraterrestrials, they are among us
@@nellofalchi5486 you think Annie fingers from ?
The Eurythmics and The Police were the music of my youth, this is making me sad.
I'm so grateful and glad to have been in my 20's in the 80's.
Absolutely 😊
Me too… it sooooooo fresh
Fantastic voice ❤Annie Lennox🎉🎉🎉
Me too.
🖖🔆🔥
She says, " I tried " ...I love everything about Annie Lennox. 🕊💖🎹
I love that. Humility is the greatest virtue. This was a masterful performance.
HUMILITY/ANNIE LENNOX - 2 words that dont belong in the same room. They are all up their own ass.
yepp too humble for a legend,, both Sting and Annie Lennox are big talents
@@synthof Yep...I have seen Sting three times and enjoyed every minute, hopefully I'll get to see Annie or the Eurythmics some day too.
Kids...this is what true talent and class is all about.
ABSOLUTELY!!!
Thats why you only listened to it once?
when someone like a Voice judge tells a contestant - you don't connect to the song, I always go back to this video. Annie at one point started to sound like she is pushing back tears, knowing she needs to go on with the performance. To all you haters - this is what pure raw emotion sounds like and if you don't like it - please go back to your autotuned world, take your dislikes and hateful comments with you and let us enjoy the pure talent that is Annie Lennox.
My God you have a great way with words
Especially when you say she’s pushing back her tears, I’m a songwriter & if you don’t mind I’m going to steel that line
Nice one
Annie and sting the best that the 80's have to offer
Nobody could have done a finer job then Annie Lennox.💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Pure emotions in there....
I agree with you 100% my fair lady!
Sting's face was the best part of this entire performance. His genuine emotion got me. Anne nailed it perfectly.
Love
Deep in the suol
The look on his face when he heard her name . I bet STing rarely gets star stuck or emotional like Annnie just did to him
Annie was almost overwhelmed with emotion so she wasn't in full control of her voice.
She took big pressure to perform for Sting and the king and the rest.
You’re absolutely right. The same tought did cross my mind
Sting's surprise was so genuine.❤
Sting’s version is bittersweet, but Annie’s is bone-chilling and post-apocalyptic. Shattering. Beautiful.
Yes, a whole different level
Wow, exactly how I felt it!
Yes. The song approached in a mature way by someone who has lived a good number of years since its creation and has seem some shattering things in those years. As we all have. And this performance was in 2017. Things have only gotten worse since then, now that it's 2023. An even more heartbreaking song.
The song, in and of itself is haunting and memorable.
It really is chilling.
No matter what is going in our lives , no matter how ugly it gets , music like this will always transport us to a very beautiful place 🙏
Even if only for a few wonderful minutes 😴
Beautifully said!
Agree 100%
So sweet words
so true
She made him cry, I think that shows how good this version was.
Fake artist are good actors
@@F1release Genuine douche canoes in the other hand...
I usually like Annie Lennox but after listening to this I have changed my mind& come to this conclusion. She cannot sing.
EMOTIONAL
he cried cause she destroyed a classic
Imagine being that one person who can bring a tear to Sting’s eye and renders him speechless.
You must not see him with Stevie and how he got choked up. But this was very special
This is not just a superstar singing her rendition of another superstar 's song. This is a friend giving a priceless gift to another friend...and that's even more valuable. ❤
Speechless -not only her voice and interpretation of Sting's song but also her incredible piano playing - such a compelling performance.
I'd be honored if some Sting fans would give a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal YT performances of IF I EVER LOSE MY FAITH IN YOU and WHY SHOULD I CRY FOR YOU in tribute to his 2 great albums from the early 90s. Live acoustic with no autotune. Peace & stay safe.
A spray-can of 'Vocal Recovery' needed...desperately !
I feel blessed to have lived i a world where Sting gave us his amazing talents...
omg....this is a devastating performance.... the drama Annie Lennox put in music is UNIQUE
I'm not ashamed, I cried!
Thanks Annie, thanks Sting.
Only one Annie Lennox. She delivers her songs like a gift to the listeners.
I'd be honored if some Sting & Annie Lennox fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal interpretations of ENGLISHMAN IN NEW YORK and WHY SHOULD I CRY FOR YOU on my YT channel in tribute to the master of lyricism and composition. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks and peace.
Right on allway
Well put....
And what a beautiful gift she gives! Thank you Annie
Yes, it's not just the quality of her immense and tremendous voice, it's the depth of emotion, thoughtfulness behind it.
Bowie once called her The Divine Miss Annie. So true.
The Divine Annie
Now I cry
Well..... I mean she was born on Christmas...
She should be considered a national treasure along with Bowie and Mercury.
Soo sweet
When the history books are written 500 years from now. It will be writ that Annie Lennox was THE queen.
That voice never gets old, loved Annie's singing since the Eurythmics.
So you missed on earlier stuff like Windsong and The Tourists. She was great even back then.
@@nznhf-gr8xw no but I've always loved the Eurythmics
Really, I never thought that she still has it, after all these years ...
Awesome ...
Sting looked genuinely moved, and blessed by her appearance/performance, and that is really nice to see.
Yep, you can tell that they were very close friends. I like how they appreciate each other's music. It's not tit-for-tat, who's more famous than the other person, it's just a mutual respect and I love that.
She moves me to tears with her hauntingly beautiful voice. She gives me goosebumps. I love you Annie Lennox.
Thank you so much Baby hand Grenade, for the love and passion
Same.
WoW!!Annie Lennox sang in the style of Nina Simone a Sting song.
@@hartze4946 Thank you so much Hartze, for your love and passion.
@@annlennox ❤️
Such a stunning performance. So incredibly emotive and so powerfully beautiful. Brought me to tears. Annie Lennox is such a gift to the world. As is Sting.
Annie has left me speechless many a time. This is definitely one of those times. ❤
To all deaf haters, what is the point of making the same version as Sting did? She made her own version, she brought something new to the song. And she didn't lose her voice, it is called maturity. Still sounds gorgeous.
Joan Baez bi ko
I don’t know much about Annie Lennox, I am so glad that I picked this video...AMAZING VOICE AND PHENOMENAL stage presence! When introduced, the announcer said she has been performing for over 4 decades. I was amazed...she is beautiful and surely doesn’t look old enough for the 4 decades of performing.
She's a great great singer and a fantastic musician... I always loved her voice and I still do... GORGEOUS! She moved me
I REALLY couldn't care less if you call me a hater or not (my notifications are turned off so I never get to read what people write in response to my comments so please don't waste your time). People are ENTITLED to their opinion. Music (and other forms of art) are subject to OPINION. Just because YOU think a piece of music sounds gorgeous doesn't make it "ultimately true". To me, this particular performance was mediocre at best and I am FAR FROM BEING deaf (I have an amazing musical ear). Even she said "I tried" knowing that her rendition was sort of imperfect and left a lot to be desired. I'm not hating. I think Lennox is an amazing artist and a beautiful person but that particular performance was NOT good at all. Enjoy your life off the internet. OUT.
Davor P i
To be born in the times of lennox and sting.....the universal lottery
Definitively they are a lucky number forever and as long as music will exist
Annie Lennox's voice still rings like a clarion. Just beautiful
It's 2023, 6 years later and this describes where we are. They are both amazing.
Her version has taken the original to a whole new level of emotional sophistication and depth! Bravo!
Hauntingly beautiful. Mesmerising indeed!
@@a-spaceman yes, we believe that Angel had her moment. Yes she showed us the way to Ferrari heaven
I love how she's like " i tried" in the end! she's a very popular artist herself and still she's so modest and still looks up to other artists! i love her so much!
She's aware of age, her voice is not the same as it once was. This song was so personal for her. Her performance wasn't perfect but in the end it was. How fragile we are.
@@djmips This is so true. The imperfections in Annie's delivery make the message of the song so much more emotionally resonant.
Rather like watching Elton John sing 'England's Rose' at Diana's funeral.
Thank you so much Charlie. You are an amazing person and special too
@@annlennox 😂😂😂 fraud.
@@djmips well said. correct it was not pitch perfect but that does not take away from the brilliance and emotion. Both legends
This is pure skill. Have you noticed that she uses all of Stings' characteristic little pitch changes, his whole vocal expression, even the exact way he forms his voice and even the way of his breath. But she does not simply copy it. She takes all of what makes her voice great and lives his voice and his whole expression with it.
That was what struck me. It's so characteristically Sting, yet in Annie Lenox's voice. So beautiful.
Skill? Nah
What a beautiful & authentic performance. Love them both. We are blessed by them both.
Well said Catherine.
WHAT DO YOU THINK MADE THIS PERFORMANCE AUTHENIC ?
She is very incredible. The realness of her voice. Her piano playing. Her humanity. She is so wonderful.
Wow. Well done! Making 'Fragile' actually sound fragile. Brave Annie.
Light Winters. Brave... she is scottish...
I think Fragile is already quite fragile as it is.
Nothing at all wrong with Annie’s version.
She has a smokin’, timeless voice.
I just find Sting’s to be the only version I need.
Well done ? Are you deaf ? This is just bad singing !
So truly BEAUTIFUL......Wow!!
The kind of performance that rips away every barrier you have carefully constructed about yourself and leaves you bare and exposed. A masterpiece.
Well put.
Annie opened for Sting on tour, we saw them at The Palace of Auburn Hills. She was shy at first and enchantingly powerful. We enjoyed Sting but our night was made by Annie Lennox.
Wow wish I'd seen and heard that, must of been an out of this world experience 😮
I can't imagine the Palace of Auburn Hills is gone? We saw so many concerts and basketball games there. I lived only a half hour north. Did they tear it down or did they make it into some type of office space? Man that was crazy that they closed that arena barely 40 years Into its existence.
I guess the Little Caesars Arena had something to do with it. They probably saw what was coming and there's no way without the Pistons that they were going to keep that place operating
It is gone!
Annie Lennox' voice still sounds great at 63. That's a real achievement
Sting and Annie are of my generation. Artists celebrating and being fans of the works of other artists. I love it.
She makes the world a much better place. What a gifted angel from above.
This song is one of the most beautiful songs Sting ever wrote, and I couldn't be happier to hear Annie's voice singing it.
Amazing.. Annie's rendition has a Nina Simone quality which is never a bad thing ♥️♥️♥️
Spot on Shane
Indeed, that was the first thing that came to my mind when she started, although I find her voice a bit fragile, but very beautiful.
To quote NS. "Don't push it. It will go up on its own." Annie struggled with nailing notes but the immensity of emotion .... wow.
@@jimleane7578 And that is what makes these two artists stand head and shoulders above so many.. Miss Simone herself may not have had a great vocal range but the soul that she put into her delivery outweighs any technical shortcomings.
Perfectly said.
The fragility of the performance is incredible.
Even i had tears in my eyes. 30 years have passed like a warm summer breeze on your front porch that sweeps away the first fallen leafs of the comming fall. Thank you Sting! Thank you Annie! You both are perfect companions whose music is moving feelings of millions of people around the world through various kinds of episodes of our lives.
When Annie sings, the world stops in awe!
Oh my God...what i have just seen and heard! Ladies and Gentlemen this is ART.

What a beautiful woman, wrinkles and all in these days of horrible plastic hearts faces ... and what a great soulful voice ... a true original singer
Thoukis Thoukis wrinkles. What are you talking about. That’s beauty in every line. She is truly amazing 😉. It’s the Scottish bloodline. I should know. I was blessed with a Scottish bride. They are a class act.
I agree, she's gorgeous. Stunning. Authentic.
Beautiful to see she moved Sting to tears, amazing performance!
She is so simply inspiring
No autotuning there! Raw talent, just her Voice and Piano and transfixing.. not many could sing and perform that! One of the Great artists of the 80s! 👍🏴🇬🇧
She’s Scottish 🙃
A standing ovation from a legend to a legend.. well done Annie 🎹👌🤗
He stood out of respect for Annie, but his face tells you everything you need to know about what he thought of that performance.
Yes she sounds like Nina. Annie is a "character" voice: its who she is: you either love her or not. I love her. She is authentic. That's rare.
charlotte harvey yes that’s what Scott’s will do to you.
I'm glad to see that I'm not the only who feels she sounds like Nina...
My first thought was also Nina
She is Eurythmic
yes, please welcome the new Nina Simone! in her shortcut white hair, love you, Annie!
Powerful. Annie sings with such raw emotion. She is an amazing artist in every sense. 'Why', 'There Must Be An Angel' and and and.
Definitely, I have not in Stockholm that long but it gives me chills every time I watch this performance.
I just came across this and can't believe I haven't seen it. Annie made this her own and it's brilliant. You can tell sting loves it by the look on his face. Makes me sad we don't have music like this anymore. 😢
its all out there mate... you're listening in the wrong place.
not sure what kind of music you like just some examples of todays music some covers some originals

I think he was contemplating mortality and the end of an incredible road.
She could sing the phone book and make it sound like Shakespeare. She is pure heart and soul and her voice is something else.
*Agreed!*
She could sing my old VCR manuals and turn them into epics LOL!!
It amazes me that when I first got into the Eurythmics, Annie was seen
a gender bending image maker and the press didn't give her long in success.
How so wrong they were. She is a true Legend.
Her voice is better now than it was then... so rich and so pure.
YOU MUST BE DEAF AS A DAYUM ROCK. THIS WAS A SHITTY PERFORMANCE AND SHE WAS OFF KEY AND OFF EVEN WITH TIMING AND SHE IS THE ONE PLAYING THE PIANO.
what a beautiful remark.......... so true
@@nunya2954 so, tell me, in what language does Nun Ya mean totally stupid!??
@@nunya2954 fucking right, keeping it real. Big thumbs up. Felt sorry for those 👂
The one and only Annie Lennox....well said!
bowie referred to her as the exquisite Annie Lennox which I prefer
Toni Orchid p
you know you have done something right,when superstars sing YOUR song :)
I’ve always thought that it’s just beautiful Sting’s song. But Annie’s performance made me cry 😢
That was Such a Moving performance, Annie Lennox has such a Graceful, Vulnerable, and Honest Presence
Aside from the gorgeous vocal performance, that was some excellent piano playing!
WOW. Annie Lennox, and Sting, and a gorgeous venue--how magical! 🥺🥰
All beauty, agony and ecstasy in this one clip; the music, the performance, the love of each other, the connection and the devastating lyrics. Reminds me that maybe it’s good to stop hiding once in a while and witness the depths that threaten to swallow us in order to really live.
I love that she made it personal and different. Not just a cover.
"How fragile we are." Instead of critiquing this technically imperfect, but emotive performance, I find it more interesting to reflect on why Annie was drawn to sing those words in the first place. The fragility of life is reflected in the fragility of the performance.
Oh please. You are more pretentious than Sting and Lennox put together.
Thank you. Great comment.
@@thewomble1509 Ag tog man
@Sue Fry Why Sue, do I not have a clue? Because i don't worship at the alter of Lennox?
I've never met her. what is she like? I've always found her gauche, self obsessed, patrician and slightly barking tbh.
Hey, opinions, everybody has one !
This was technically incorrect and did not suit her voice, the range of her voice, interesting choice to interpret song that matters to her in a way that causes pain to listener's ears. Otherwise, I love Annie Lennox 🙂🙂
Wow, her piano accompaniment/arrangement is powerful, & a different interpretation! I didn't know which song it was until she started singing. I love Annie Lennox, as well as Sting!
I can see where she'd have thought Sting would instantly guess which song she chose - the most powerful voice singing about the delicacy of being fragile. She's such a beautiful person in and out.
I love her original chord arrangements. A true musician.
Thank you so much Shmuel. I love you too
You said you tried but you conquered. Magnificent
I remember hearing her voice for the first time as a young child and was instantly transfixed. She has a unique and beautiful instrument - it is lovely to see she has taken great care of it.
Like a block of cement, as soon as this song started, it immediately stopped Sting in his tracks and literally took him back to every single memory he has of this song. You can see it in his face..
Only a few in the World that can do that and Annie Lennox is most certainly one of them. Wow!
Sting with tears in his eyes. Very special moment and special performance.
Holy Christ!!!! Can someone please get this huge lump out of my throat. Annie you amaze me thank you so much for tributing this beautiful song for Sting. ❤️💯👏👍😘
She has no real voice!
Sting trying to fight the tears, and what a privilege to have Annie Lennox honor your music
Annie Lennox is amazing and Sting clearly appreciated her performance and ultimately her tribute.
Always enjoyed her and Sting as well. Check out her singing "September in the Rain" on youtube. Fabulous!! Saw Sting in Connecticut in late 80's.
god you can see how moved sting is by this. from an Artist to an artist, this was personal.
Omg, this woman…she is the defending of an artist. ❤
the greatest honor...now...I have to go practice my piano.
"Nothing comes from violence, and nothing ever could" - This same incantation (of Sting's) from her work in the film A Private War. Ms Lennox is a treasure !
Bill Bernhard it’s the Scottish blood.
Annie’s Smile fills the room her tremendous talent floods it .
Having them singing the soundtrack of our youth was a big priviledge.
She is eternal, elegant and classic...amazing tribute.
Hello. How are you doing Kristina 🌹🌹
And modern,so modern.
How beautiful she sings .....this is what we need in 2022 🙏 greetings from the Netherlands 🥰
She added a haunting quality that isn't in the original- makes the lyrics gut-wrenching.
Hauntingly brutal. My eyes bled listening to this
Thaddeus Oggh 😂😩. She blew Stings mind with that version...he didn’t see that coming 😂😩😂
@@10-4-goodbuddy - Yes, she did, he cringed in horror.
@@danbev9313 - Again, people must be tone deaf or just settle for below mediocre.
Many years ago, I had the privilege of seeing Sting in concert and Annie opened for him. In fairness to Annie, she could’ve been the headliner. But it was an incredible show, all the way around, and they did a duet at the end. Both stellar performers!
Wow no words only tears, my fav female singer, Annie Lennox singing my fav male singer song. It can't get any better than this. No matter how many times i listen to this it still cry so so beautiful.💓
To all youngsters out there .... this is how real music sounds like.
Stop lecturing the youth boo, as the incomperable Gladys Knight said once: "these will be the good old days for our children"
Sounds bad
Dude stop the mocking. Be happy rejoice.
so you are the one to "DEFINE" what music is? nice try. old fart.
WE YOUNGSTERS HAVE LADY GAGA JESSIE J ADELE DEMI LOVATO ETC JHUD THESE R POWER VOCAL OF TODAY SO
So glad CZcams sent this to me. I sit here in Covid lock down listening to Annie’s rendition of fragile, almost weeping thinking about the thousands that have died, and the impact on the world this plague has imposed. Never has there been a time like this. We truly are fragile. Hug your children and loved ones. 🌹😥🌹
under lockdown here in D.C.
not that different than hunkering down in an extended weather emergency. but at least you can see
weather. not knowing what thing you touch will send you to the hospital. thats scary.
Daniel. At this point I think I’ll take the weather. I’m hear in Florida and all we need is a bad hurricane season to top this whole thing off. I truly am praying we get a “buy” on the hurricane stuff. Take care, stay well. ☮️
At the end of it all -I feel she summoned the soul
of Nina Simon - haunting - beautiful
Beautiful voice she has .. I’ve forgotten just how many good songs Sting had
Annie brought this brilliant song to an even higher level
I couldn't agree more that Annie Lennox has made this version her own. Very emotional and moving. Takes the song and lyrics up a level of immersiveness and imagination.
...he was obviously very moved....well done Annie ❤
I don't think I've ever seen Sting so thoroughly moved. And I'm in tears.
It feels so good to see Annie Lennox again, in any setting. For her to sing "Fragile" in honour of Sting is almost too much for the heart to bear.
Wait... Annie Lennox plays the piano too,all these years I didn't know that,wow so talented👏👍
you can take a look at her performance of "why" at an Arista anniversary concert, I still think it's one of the best live performances of all time.
You're kidding me right? You didn't know Annie Lennox plays piano? Oh my gosh. That's how she made her career. She writes all her songs off the piano
Annie so humble here, and she invokes Secret Squirrel! I love her.
I have watched this performance several times now. It makes me so emotional. I love your music even more Annie.
Sensational. Her voice. Her presence. That performance. Their mutual respect. His appreciation. This video is a masterpiece of beauty. Art that moves us. I cry every time that I watch this. Thank you for posting this gem.
