      Nah. I love Annie but if you want to hear that song done right, you need to prioritise the original by The Lover Speaks. Annie grew to love ‘No More I Love Yous’ when TLS supported the Eurythmics on tour in the late 80s, so she heard it on a daily basis - yet she still gets a few of the lyrics wrong in her version, presumably from mishearing.

    I was a big fan of the Eurythmics back in the day and when this song came out, I was floored with how she continued to reinvent herself and that her vocals can be turned to a variety of different styles. An early favorite is "Who's That Girl?" but I love the urban vibes of "This City Never Sleeps" - however, her powerhouse vocals are on full throttle in "Would I Lie to You? (Dave Stewart - her counterpart in the Eurythmics - went on to help score music for several movies. Just huge talent all round! ❣

    The "singers" in the background is her own voice, harmonies that she sang and are put together like a group. One of the best female voices in pop. Came from the Eurythmics British band of the 80"s. she was a Scottish lass. You ought to listen to her other songs

    FINALLY!!! THANK YOU!!
    I loved how much you appreciated this incredible ARTIST and now have a sense of how diverse her musical journey has been.
    Treat yourselves and watch the video of her performing this song live at the Arista Records 25th anniversary. Just her playing the piano and singing . She blows the audience away.

    Never duplicated, smooth as butter, Powerhouse vocalist and pianist. Check out her performance during an awards show at 63 years old of the song, "I put A spell On you." She left the audience with their mouths hanging open😅💪🔥

      I was going to mention that performance especially after the "take me to church" comment, since that was the song she did the duet with before she basically put a spell on the audience. Grammys - 2015. She stole the entire show.

    Annie Lennox is one of the most amazing female artists. For me, she is a powerhouse, and she has movement in her lyrics. I love her covers of I Put a Spell on You, and A Whiter Shade of Pale. 😊

    her Grammy performance with Hozier doing their song 'Take Me to Church' is phenomenal! And her duet with David Bowie of Bowie's song with Queen/Freddie Mercury (Annie did after Freddie's death), 'Under Pressure' is REALLY great! AND- her duet with Arethea Franklin- 'Sisters are Doing it for Themselves' is amazing!

  • @Sombergirl1979
    @Sombergirl1979 Před rokem +4

    I absolutely love this song. It's about self doubt of being a solo singer after the group broke up. But the guitarist Dave Stewart encouraged Annie to be a solo singer & said you will do great. That's how this song came about

  • @lifeasthatgirl1303

    @ZigbertD Před rokem +2

    If you want to be completely blown away, search for her live performance of this song from the Arista Records 25th Anniversary show. Just her solo, singing and playing piano, but it's utterly overwhelming in its intensity and emotion.

    They need to watch Annie closing the 2012 Olympics in London , singing Little Bird - live as she moves around the stadium. Annie is a classically trained musician , but also has an exceptional voice. Again they need to watch the live memorial concert for Freddie Mercury , where she sang Pressure with David Bowie.

    She’s often referred to as the greatest white female soul singer ever. She’s amazing. She has so much more that the electronic 80s with her group band.
    Her second album Medusa is all covers. They’re mostly from soul, reggae, and blues artist. It’s AMAZING. Check out both her first whole albums. No More I Love Yous is a great one to do from her second album.

  • @SonicProfessor_a.k.a._T._Andra

    This entire album is fantastic. Unexpectedly brilliant.
    "Cold" is the song that I find most underrated and underappreciated (for no reason!).
    You guys need to hear that, please!
    -I was actually, NEVER, really, a Eurythmics fan, at all,
    ...SO, when Annie Lennox released: Diva [This album. Her first solo outing], I was pretty floored when I heard it.
    ...it does tread in some quite different waters that the Eurythmics, generally, did (overall).
    ...Annie Lennox composed 98% of this album [This song included.] (-There's a cover (as bonus track I believe🤷) and a co-write on it, as well); whereas: in the Eurythmics, Dave Stewart did a BIT more of the writing (although, obviously: they co-worte and each contributed to the band's output. Definitely.), there [at least at the start.].
    Annie lets her voice wash over you on this album. It is luscious and sensuous.
    Filled-to-the-brim with emotion.
    ...nearly every song [on Diva] is excellent, but, as I mentioned above:
    You, really, NEED to hear: "Cold"
    (although: "Money Can't Buy It"
    and "Precious"
    are excellent, as well, if you need something in a slightly more "pop-oriented"/" '80s becoming '90s," pop radio vein. 🤷🤷-👍)

    Glad you’re getting to her solo work. If you need a pick me up and another range of her incredible vocals, go to Eurythmics’ “Would I Lie To You?” The horns and her vocals are killer! You will add that to your personal list.

    Great reaction - Jay's face when her vocals hit the first time says it all - you just have to marvel at this exquisite, unique creature. She is striking, you are so right. And as a singing technique, the ability to do that speak/singing part with the key changes and literally just have enough air to do it at all, let alone to sound that rich, strong and impactful. That is rock solid craftsmanship and skill. All hail Mariah and Celine and rightly so, but Annie Lennox makes an alto's heart swoon.
