Annie Lennox was born in Scotland on December 25, 1954.
Annie's musical interest was evident to her parent from the
time she was three years old, which ultimately led her to
the Royal Academy of Music in London to study the flute.
Although Annie's debut LP wasn't released until 1992, Annie
is no stranger to musical success. Annie was one-half of
the 1980's super duo, Eurythmics. While living in London,
Annie met guitarist Dave Stewart and joined a band named
The Tourists who gained marginal success in the U.K. in the
late 1970s and early 1980s. Annie and Stewart soon left the
band to form the Eurythmics.
The group disbanded quietly in 1991 when Annie took time
off to have a child, and eventually work on her solo debut.

Review about Annie Lennox Don't know why | Reviewer: Charles
------ About the song Why performed by Annie Lennox
This song speaks volumes to me even now. My partner and I broke up about 2yrs. ago and this song reminds me of him everytime I hear it and immediately brings me to tears. The breakup was mostly my fault and every day I wake up I regret my actions that lead up to our separation. We're still friends and we stay in contact occasionally but it's not the same. We both have found other love interests and I think we both genuinely love our new partners and our new partners are very good to us but I also think he and I are still emotionally connected to one another and I don't think we're able to let that go. We can go for weeks or months without contacting one another and eventually when we touch base with one another we seem to always have the exact same experiences and issues in our lives. He's the one and only person that I honestly believe we were made for each other. I do know without a doubt that he was the love of my life and if things were to align perfectly I feel like we could possibly be together again but I'm not holding out for that to happen.
When I first heard this song I cried. I heard it when my step aunt played LOTR songs on the piano after the funeral of my Nana. It made me think she is in a better place and we will meet again. i love this song and nearly Know it off by heart
BEST SONG EVER

------ About the song Love Song For A Vampire performed by Annie Lennox
I thought I was going crazy. None of the people I know like this song.
It's comforting to know other people in the world understand...
There's nothing new I can say about it. The power of the melody
and the lyrics has been described in the other reviews.
Just want to say that for me, it is the best love song ever written.

------ About the song Why performed by Annie Lennox
To the person who corrected the lyrics, Ms. Lennox very deliberately shades from WHAT I FEEL to WHAT I FEAR at the end as she whispers- it is part of the genius of the song. This and ONE by U2 are powerful anthems to authentic human love, which is brutal and crushing and sublime and why we are here on earth. John Cameron Mitchell wrote a song (The Origin of Love from the film Hedwig and the Angry Inch) explaining that in the mythic past men and women were two halves of one being which was violently rent in two, and we now spend eternity trying to recapture that unity at all costs by crashing together in a messy and painful but heroic fight. We have no choice. I always say God never loves us more than when we TRY, no matter how many times we fail.

------ About the song Why performed by Annie Lennox
This song still moves me to tears - a big 55yr old generally blokey man - it somehow just hits and represents the feelings of regret for loves lost and what you know you have never experienced because of it...
Hope put to music. | Reviewer: IXOYE
------ About the song Into The West performed by Annie Lennox
This song made me cry the first time I heard it. I am a guy so that does not happen very often. The first time I heard this song was a week and a half after my best friend was killed by a gang who jumped him and stuck a knife in his chest. I never got to say goodbye, but this song made me realize that I will see him again and goodbyes won't be necessary this time.
Inspiring | Reviewer: Alrune
------ About the song Into The West performed by Annie Lennox
Ever since I was little, and for the first time heard the story about a couple of insignificant Hobbits who fought and made their way to save Middle Earth, I was in love. The story is rich with symbols which made it a part of modern mythology.
This song to me translates as parting of friends, so as to continue the never-ending journey. It inspired me so many times, and continues to do so, every time a cycle in my life ends, with that feeling of excitement for the new, unexpected future, mixed with sadness for everything that I am about to leave behind. It captures that moment perfectly...
Beautiful.
Rovidan | Reviewer: Ron
------ About the song Into The West performed by Annie Lennox
It's amazing how many reviewers have had the same reactions/emotions to this song. You hear it and cry but your not sure why. You try to sing along, but you can't. You are invariably reminded of some loved one long seperated or gone before. How very rare to find such a beautiful thing that can stir people across the whole spectrum of humanity, Christians, Jews, non-believers, Elves, Dwarves, Hobbits... to such base feelings. Well done Annie, et al.
fran walsh, one of the screen writers for LOTR, was inspired by cameron duncan, a New Zealand amateur filmmaker. He was diagnosed with osteosarcoma (a kind of bone cancer) at age 16 in february 2002, and died november 12, 2003. he was 17. pete jackson and the entire cast/crew of LOTR became extremely close with cameron and he produced 2 films, DFK6498 and Strike Zone, with their help.
fran walsh wrote this song for him and all those lost throughout the years and it was played at his funeral and is now played at numerous funerals throughout the world.
We played this at my Nan's funeral, i just feel that the song has spirtual sense about it. it gives hope that loved one lost are never far away and that they are waiting and watching over us. not a day that goes by without me playing this song. very moving song it shows us that we can be ourselves and dream about the ones we have lost. so to whom it my concern and all whom now rest in heaven

Origins | Reviewer: David Zexyz
------ About the song Into The West performed by Annie Lennox
I am more interested in finding out how the song came to be.
I've read that phrases are taken from the last chapter of the trilogy, and that it was conceived as a bittersweet Elvish lament sung by Galadriel for those who have sailed across the Sundering Sea.
The only one that helps | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Into The West performed by Annie Lennox
I just lost a very close friend to a car accident. This is the only song that really helps - it gives me so much hope for her. Instead of keeping me sad, this song helps me understand her passing and be able to hope for the day I will see her again. Like Sam, I am left behind tearful, but with a promise of reunion.
A saga of love and longing..... | Reviewer: Ishani

The melody is haunting... The lyrics and soulful rendition makes you feel a lump in your throat. The emotions in this song rip the heart apart with feelings of the pain of lost love and eternal longing for a beloved. Absolutely unearthly creation!!
Why -Annie Lennox | Reviewer: Emsy
------ About the song Why performed by Annie Lennox
I remember this song came out when I was in high school. I was 17 and had just broken up with my first genuine high school boyfriend. I used to play this song a lot. 20 or so years later and this song still holds the exact same context for me because, while I've greatly changed as a person over the years, my relationships have not.

Hi there.
I sent a review through earlier this week. I was recently listening to the song and then realised that I think you had the last paragraph wrong; just towards the end. I'm not sending a url source through because these lyrics are on every site I've seen...though I'll send you through the correct lyrics here. Cheers.
"And this is what they represent
And this is how I feel
Do you know how I feel?
'Cause I don't think you know how I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
You don't know what I feel"
It's more than a story. | Reviewer: Jon
------ About the song Into The West performed by Annie Lennox
This is more tham a story, it's part of my life now. I have to listen to Into The West when im feeling relaxed and calm. Also, as the quote goes off the LOTR trilogy book,
'The reading world is divided into those who have read The Hobbit and The Lord of The Rings, and those who are about to read them.'
And I'v recently finished reading LORT, and want to read it again because it's got a sense of powerfull emotions in it.
this was my theme song ... | Reviewer: Valerie
------ About the song Honestly performed by Annie Lennox
...when I was going through some particularly difficult times with my teenager daughters, which are, thank God, past. I'd blast this song and sing the sub-lyricsa the top of my lungs and it'd make me feel just a little bit better and less pissed off at them! Saw Annie last year in concert and she is fabulous.
