THE VOICE! ANNIE LENNOX at The BBC [In Concert 2003] ALBUMS THAT SHOULD EXIST

 Paul he say:

Annie Lennox - BBC In Concert, Riverside Studios, London, Britain, 6-26-2003

As part of my big BBC project, I tried looking for a good BBC concert by the Eurythmics, but I haven't come across one yet. However, Annie Lennox was the lead singer of the Eurythmics, and went on to have a very successful solo career. I found a good unreleased BBC concert from her.

This is a particularly well timed concert. After Lennox's first two solo albums were massive sellers. "Diva" in 1992 (which sold seven million copies worldwide), and "Medusa" in 1996 (which sold a few million). Her next album, "Bare," still sold about a million copies. But after that, her sales dropped quite a lot. So this concert came right at the end of her very popular phase, and naturally contains the biggest hits from her early solo albums.

There are also three Eurythmics hits here: "Here Comes the Rain Again," "Would I Lie to You," and "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)." I'm guessing there were more, but this is a common case of the BBC editing a concert down to fit into an hour-long radio show slot.

This album is 55 minutes long.

01 Little Bird (Annie Lennox)
02 A Thousand Beautiful Things (Annie Lennox)
03 No More I Love You's (Annie Lennox)
04 Walking on Broken Glass (Annie Lennox)

IMHO Annie is quite simply the best voice the UK has ever come up with. Peerless and soaring this loud and tender tour de force of a voice befits the Queen of Pop and I will brook no argument! Here at Albums that Should Exist

THE QUEEN!
