kingofdeon Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 What does everything think of Annies cover of Shinning light?YouTube - Annie Lennox - Shining LightIt breaks my fucking balls, it seems to be on the radio all the time at my work! (between that and the fucking Feeling....i have no authority to change the dial)Don't hate Annie Lennox but this song kills me, even the Ash version didnt do much for me, if anything.

sross90 Posted February 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I quite liked the ash version, but I think AL version just sounds too...i dont know...too floaty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest idol_wild Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Oooh, I'll have to give this a listen.I fucking love Annie Lennox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsby Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Quite liked it, although it bugs me a bit that she's changed the melody at "ligh-hi-t" (going up instead of down on the original).Although it's such a good tune it's hard to imagine anyone butchering it.

sross90 Posted February 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Oooh, I'll have to give this a listen.I fucking love Annie Lennox. I didnt realise unitl I was watching some top 20 programme that you find on music channels, that she had sooo many brit awards!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammer Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I liked a lot of Eurythmics and her solo stuff but I can't get excited by this, it just sounds limp and tepid... and why it's getting so much airplay puzzles me.?( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest idol_wild Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I didn't enjoy this so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 It is rotten, I wish Radio 2 wouldn't play it as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I didn't enjoy this so much Me neither...it's missing something.But she's definitely put her own spin on it, which is good, I guess.I like the video though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouse Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Didn't even know it was her. Not too keen on it. I love the original obviously, great song from a very underrated band Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Zero Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I'm not even going to listen to this because i'm 100% certain i'll hate it. Didn't like the Ash version and although some of the early Eurythmics stuff was OK i've been no fan of Annie's solo stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorge Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Total fucking dross, just like all of her other versions covers really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 its tragic a former pop star desperate for a hit resorts to covering a half credible alternative rock band song! she dont need the money but she evidently does need a hit! it really is pathetic, come on lennox do you not have any new songs you can inflict upon us? and shame on radio 2 for playing it so much, but they are way too predictable at times promoting fodder like this. i never know where lennox's head is at but this is a sad attempt at trying to get back in the hit parade, sad thing is she probably thinks people give a fuck about the charts these days!

Guest idol_wild Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 She'll never top Love Song for a Vampire.Which I would never expect to, given that it's one of the most perfect songs ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
