- “Writing ‘Requiem for a Private War’ for the film ‘A Private War’ has not only given me an opportunity to honour Marie Colvin, but also aims to amplify the ‘truth to power’ message she fought all her life to convey to the world, regarding the atrocious consequences of warfare and it’s effects upon innocent civilian populations.” Annie Lennox

Requiem for a Private War - Annie Lennox
Why do these cold stars burn bright, all these cold stars?
Why do these cold stars burn bright, all these cold stars?
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on
Nothing will stop me
Still the world keeps spinning around you
Heaven knows we're drifting apart
All the burning buildings surrounds you
All the world is falling down
All the world is falling down
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on
Nothing will stop me
Underneath the shooting stars
Fireworks tearing us apart
Tiny sparks and broken parts
Bruised and bleeding broken hearts
Hopelessness turned to despair
Shattered glass lies everywhere
Flying from the deadly blast
Armageddon's come at last
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on
Bring it on ...
Annie has made us proud to be her fans. I hope she reads this. The music is beautiful and the lyrics are like only Annie can write and sing. Annie knew Marie, which makes this song extra special.
@Idris Kyrie
Thanks
It is so hard not to take her songs personally. Ms. Lennox has a tendency to speak my pain. "Why do these cold stars burn so bright?" When all you have in life is pain and the memory of pain, the beauties of the day/night are like slaps in the face. I get this beautiful song because of my personal war with recovering from a decade of abuse as a child. Like hidden land mines, triggers are everywhere. I guess all this is to say that commiserate heartfully with war reporters, soldiers, and the civilians who are bystanders of their world being blown apart. I hurt. But the pain is used to understand others' pain. Can't quite say that it is worth it, yet. Understanding is in such scarce quantity, I'm glad to give it.
Please keep sharing. It will help others to care for their pain and so help others do the same..
You may never know how much it does help. But as you know, our wounds don't get better on their own. They need to be cared for to keep from festering and getting infected, where we can take our pain and hurt out on others or society, even ourselves.
As we know, Marie was clearly suffering from PTSD but wasn't assessed and treated as the Times should have or given her non-combat assignments.
I've worked with disabled combat veterans in sport settings. They know the adrenaline addiction and rage against oppression.
We all need to redirect or channel that energy in other activities that can help us recover from our trauma.
Reliving or reenacting traumatic events is part of it.
"Healing is found in the blood of the wound!" cried ancient Greek Therapuetes. Not everyone can go there and should never be forced, as Jung warned.
It has to come naturally.
Our dreams can help.
The great movie Good Will Hunting with Robin Williams and Matt Damon is an example of following a natural course of recovery as memories occur or triggered.
Jung was out walking with a patient who had been beaten by her father as a child. When she dropped her coat, Jung picked it up a d began to tap it with his cane, causing her to scream for him to stop.
The crux of it?
"It's not your fault."
In some ways I'm trying to heal my dad by working with veterans. He came back from Vietnam alcoholic and addicted to pain-killers and terribly abusive because of it.
He refused to see a psychiatrist as my mom tried to get him to.
So please keep sharing.
It can help others to care for their pain.
We all need to.
Many Blessings
@Stan Current I think you are awesome. You hit the nail on the head.......many times. I mean, in particular, the reason I share is the hoping that at least one person needs to read what I've written. My personality is partly helpful. I want to infuse the best soul beauties into me.
Since I was a kid, I've had a certain feeling about Vietnam. When I heard Alice in Chains' Rooster, I was agape. It sounds exactly how I feel about the war. Every man, woman, and child has my complete sympathy and empathy for being in that hell on Earth.
I certainly will keep sharing and you, sir, keep striving towards The Mark of Perfection, your LORD SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST. You are a very good man and I thank you for talking to me.
I couldn't have asked for a better song for this movie and to describe Marie....it touched my heart,Annie Lenox's voice and these lyrics...it fits perfectly
Annie, you're the same great singer as I know you since 1983! Thank you for your great energy!
July 2024: When I listened to the song at the end of the movie yesterday; I had goosbumps ! 🤩👌💯🧡Annie's voice is beautiful !
Annie's voice never ages, it's still as powerful as when she was young, and I love it from the bottom of my heart. It brings me chills every single time.
ANNIE LENNOX🎶🎵🎤💓🙏🙂
Thank You for this clip and the wonderful Song Annie Lennox
This movie is a must see, with an outstanding cast and stand out message.
Still sings the clearest melodies... Diva!!! #AnnieLennox 💟
Youngsters listen up…This is how you sing & perform!
Nice song. Rosemund Pike deserves an Oscar.
Rosamund pike
What a hauntingly beautiful song. Such power radiating through vocals contained so much. Thank you for this.
A beautiful song and a touching tribute. Congrats on all the award nominations for the song.
My heart aches for this story to be told! Anne is a true world leader in human rights!
So moving and powerful, the song, the film and Marie, what a life! What a woman!
I grew up with "There must be an angel" (was born in'74) thank's so much for all the beauty and strength you give. Love from Paris.
I love Annie! Beautiful! 👏👏👏👏
What an amazingly intimate song.
I heard your song after watching the movie. It is chilling yet so beautiful, almost therapeutic.
God Blessed you, I write very similar, but that voice is amazing.
I'm a new fan.
❤❤
Just finished this movie, what can I say, it’s bloody amazing. This is one which will live with me for a long time. 10/10.. As for Annie Lennox, the perfect song for this movie., another 10/10
Wow I have just come across this. Blew my mind. So glad Annie lived outside of the limelight, a true inspiritation with a huge heart.
@@loudrah326 yup, I just went back into the trailer after reading your reply and the emotions came flooding back. An amazing story
Annie's music can make you forget how to breathe. Knowing this is a tribute to Marie Colvin's life, her bravery and ability to disregard the evil lurking seconds away to ensure the truth is revealed makes it so powerful. Who better to honor your life through song!
One creates the suffering, one can end the suffering. Marie Colvin = one who showed it all. Great requiem Annie Lennox.
Only Annie Lennox could sing with such beauty of the terrible private wars surrounding us....
Annie, in the 80s and 90s you were singing and we were dancing. It's been a long journey but we're ALL here, alive and kicking. God Bless You!
WE NEED A NEW ALBUM, MUJER!
YEAH, THEN COME TO BRAZIL!
Hi Annie :
I follow you since you started your career with Eurythmics. I think, every thing which Annie Lennox touch is gold. You are a great great artist. I see many times your videos and I like that you make it with John Malkovich ( another great artist). 👍👍
She won for Return of the King and will probably be nominated again at the Oscars!
I love Annie Lennox. Brazil loves you.
I love you Annie Lennox!
I have to say. Annie is still a beautiful woman who radiates power.
What is so crazy, is that I know Hopelessness and Despair mean basically the same thing. Regardless of that in this song a lot of us know exactly what that line is referring to.
Well said.
Really disappointed Annie's song from "A Private War" is not up for an Oscar as best song.The film and Rosamond Pike's performance should also be up for an Oscar!
Your song is a drama in its self but nothing less is expected from the one and only annie Lennox
I have had this song on my play-list since I heard about the movie. It is so beautiful and vivid with each and every note song. You are the best Annie.
Can you imagine that some people have the nerve to leave bad comments.
On here? Let me leave a dislike.

Not in this comment section. On another posting of the movie sound track. Somebody said it was "awful".

This is simply a beautiful song.
I love this song and have loved her since 1980s!!!!!!!!!!
Oh Annie, so long ago I did not hear your beautiful voice singing! You made me happy to hear your voice again! Your voice will always be beautiful! 💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟
Annie is very sensible in this music. The movie will be very good. I WILL WATCH
Still such a beautiful and powerful voice. Love your music and hope to see you live someday
Rosamund Pike AND Stanley Tucci!!!!!! Two sensational actors. Can’t wait to see this.
Gracias Annie solo un gran mujer podía homenajear a Marie Calvin grande entre las/los Grandes
Annie Lennox is the best Brilliance song
Oh my gosh her voice even just speaking is incredible
Thank you, Annie. Another gorgeous song with heart wrenching lyrics. You are simply remarkable.
Oscar for this song and film.
That voice!! Annie.. you are out of this world!!
What a voice, what a life in every note. With true Respect and Appreciation, I bow...
A Fan, Ruby *
Thank you for sharing this incredibly moving song. Found this page after watching the 2006 interviews with Marie Colvin. Her bravery and unique journey have been unsung until now
que música linda e triste!!!
Wow, Annie’s truly showing me that she’s taking good care of her instrument and that pleases me to no end. If you listen, there’s a resonating quality to the way. Once again, hitting and holding those minor plaintive notes. I’d venture even better as time passes, much like Joni, minus the cigarettes (lol) but subtle nuanced depth. Contributing to a Rosemund Pike film about such a formidable woman. I could go on but I’m going to leave it there, amongst all that Power of our Women.
So nice to hear new music from this outstanding musician. Stay well Ms. Lennox.
So proud of those that fight 4 justice,shining a light in the dark♡
Thank You Annie, for honoring Marie and everyone who dares to speak truth to power.
Love it
I was hoping she'd get another Oscar for this song. Shame how this movie overall was left out of the Oscar. But I will always love Annie!
Beautiful and magnificent song. Thank you! Your voice is majestic as always! 😊
Annie I've always loved your music and loved you. You're like a wine, getting better with time. You look so beautiful and your soul is so...HUMAN .
such an inspiration ,tremendously powerful voice ….you have a beautiful soul for donating all the proceeds to your song .
ANNIE LENNOX, obrigado por existir, você fez e faz parte da minha historia, alegrias e tristezas.beijos ANNIE
AMAZED OF YOUR VOICE AS THE FIRST TIME ...GREAT VOICE DIVA ANNIE...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Annie is the BEST for this kind of song. I am so happy to see her aligned with this film.
The film is powerful in its own calm way, and this song just closed the case beautifully.
Annie Lennox = Greatness
Thank you for this exciting premier-moment!
KUDOS to Annie Lennox for her dedication!
Żnam wiele pani kompozycji, a pani głos wchodzi mi w najgłębsze komórki mózgu.Swietność muzyki, mam słuch , Mogę założyć się że umiem śpiewać jeszcze , na pewno nie uzyskując skali głosu takiego jak pani. Pozdro
I love your soul and the brilliance you bring to your art!
Thank you for your heart that has always spoken so relevantly in so many areas and thank you for continuing to grow in your outreach. You have been gifted with a voice but not just the sound, a voice that has reached around the world and spoken in so many ways that matter.
A great song and a great movie,,,,,,, voice form Beijing cannot be missed.
I hope this song win the golden globe
I love you so much Annie Lennox 💋💋🌹❤️🌹

Another creative masterpiece from Annie Lennox...
Love Annie's voice.. Check out Universal Child too.. A track that was featured on Annie's Christmas Album back in 2012 ish
Yet again a powerful performance from Annie, well done 🌹
Beautifully done. I adore Annie Lennox.
The Song speak to us Annie! Worderful
Энни Ленокс👌👌👌
Душа,Радость,Нежность)
Кто против????
great Annie!!!
Annie Lennox has given us a most powerfully moving tribute to Marie Colvin in this great movie.
It is probably due to her many years as an activist protesting oppressive government policies anywhere to keep them from killing innocent people to begin with.
More of us need to do the same.
It's going on 11 years now since Marie and French photojournalist Remi Ochlik were killed. Paul Conroy was nearly killed too, along with journalist Edith Bouvier (sp?)
Please excuse my spelling.
We need to remember them by supporting freedom of the press and speak out as well against any fascist ideologies.
Marie was getting her boots when she was killed by Bashir's murderous loyalists. His wife was off getting a new pair of stilletos.
Thank You Annie Lennox.
Incredible. Bring it on. Annie 💖
Still a goddess. Her and Grace Jones are gold to me.
OMG this song is fighting with Shallow!
I love Annie, i love your voice but also i love Gaga
My two favorite singers are nominated in the same category!!!
OMG.
Beautiful! Even though the movie is sad. Annie Lennox nails it!
Very moving song
Hermosa!! Como siempre,💕
I literally got goosebumps, both Rosamund and Annie were snubbed this awards season.
The best choice for the film. Always diva!!!!.
