Annie Lennox: Songs
built 391 days ago
At 17, Annie was accepted by the Royal Academy of Music in London. She spent the next three years studying classical music, only to drop out a few weeks before her finals. She stayed in London for another three years, working in a book shop. Entering a singing competition, she won with her renditions of Scottish folk songs.

As on her breakthrough record DIVA, Lennox is an expert in the area of the torch song, laying out her heartbreak on a gossamer bed of sound surrounded by feathery pillows of strings and synthesizers. Whether or not you take the strikingly solipsistic liner notes seriously, it's easy to empathize with the anguish Lennox so stylishly expresses throughout BARE. Even when she lays all her cards on the table with "The Saddest Song I've Got," you feel pretty certain that she's still got more tricks up her sleeve that she hasn't even used yet.
