Annie Lennox remarkable performance last night on the America Music Awards was absolutely breathtaking, I had tears flowing from my eyes . I would like to know the name of that song she sang? Her receiving the merit award for her music, charitable work and the thank you to Dave Stewart was incredible. Annie you will continue to have Sweet Dreams. If anyone can help, I would deeply apreciate it very much. Thank you Roberta

Songs of Mass Destruction
This album is great! I have recently discovered Annie Lennox and her past pursuits (the awesome Eurythmics), and am loving her newest album. Annie's voice is something I could listen to for hours and never get tired of. Her lyrics are deep and her songs are catchy without losing that soul which makes her music unique. Her emotion shows in these songs, and for the better. Go buy it, please! Can't wait for the next album.

At first I wasn't sure I liked Annie's return to us. After listening a few times to it I was absorbed into it. Her depth and growth became clear. She has matured and it shows.

I was just begining to find out who Annie Lennox was around the time "Songs" was coming out, i had seen a snippet of the "Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This) music video on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of the 80's and i immediatley had to know everything about this artist. I did my research just in time to see that she had just recentley released a Brand Spankin New Cd entitled "Songs Of Mass Destruction". Well with a name like that, WHO can resist? so i bought the cd and BOY WAS I GLAD!
SOMD is a collection of wonderfully crafted semi-dark ballads that are borderlining sheer perfection. Annie's voice is so pure and heartfelt. Your body feels every note she sings.
MY Top 5 are
1.Big Sky
2.Smithereens
3.Dark road
4.Lost
5.Love Is Blind
Songs of Mass Destruction is a must for every age. don't try to resist it.
You Know you WANT TO. SO BUYITNOW!
LOVE YOU ANNIE!

Lennox Fan, June 1, 2008

I've been an Annie fan since I first heard her vocals on "Never Gonna Cry Again". Having said that: This LP just doesn't impress me. The overt political title segways into a plethora of utter nonsense of political diatribe set to music. It seems as if Annie is trying to channel Bono on this record. Lennox's music has always come from a dark place, "Savage" being one of my favorite albums to date, but the themes on these songs leaves one feeling melancholy. There's no triumph in the final analysis. "Coloured Bedspread" has a catchy ring and just hearing Annie's vocals gives this a 2 star, beyond that, this LP isn't what an Euryhmic or Lennox fan would appreciate. I know I don't appreciate it, on a musical level. Isn't that what Lennox is about: Music? What happened to poetic politics?
