Every time I feel lost, I listen to this song and come to conclusion that they wouldn't really know how I feel. It perfectly suits all the emotions that stirs me from within. Thank you for this classic. Why?
Oh Sedin, from BC too? I feel like Annie is such an underrated artist. These people just perhaps can't "relate" or just have the need to put a thumbs down
My niece used to sing this song all the time when she was 12 and living with me. I told her why are you singing such a sad adult song and she said she liked it. She was abducted and murdered from her home when she was 14 when she went back to live with her mother. I had them play this song at her funeral. We never found her body. Her name is Jessie Kay Peters. I mourn her very day. I loved her so much.
One of my Best Friends is dying of brain cancer. She has mentioned several times that she wants to stop fighting. Tonight she was in the ER, and asked to "Go home." When seriously ill people say that, it sometimes means that they want to go not to a home in this realm, but to Eternal Life. Please pray for her, she is the sweetest most loyal and loving person. Her initials are AMS. 💔😪
When I listen to this song it reminds me of someone who is very sad about a relationship that is about to fall apart! Something that can't be saved anymore because somewhere along the line it is gone this boat is sinking this boat is sinking this boat is sinking! It's a sad song but it's a beautiful song because that's how a lot of relationships end! And the sad thing is you have to say WHY? How many times do I have to tell you how sorry I am for the things I've done? I will always love this song! ❤️
“Why” is Annie Lennox's first single after the 1990 breakup of Eurytmics. She claims that it is a personal song related to her going solo. Though filled with doubt* about her very own artistic potential, Lennox penned “Why” within just ten-odd minutes. The piece won the 1992 Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically. When asked about “Why” in an interview, Lennox replied : “It’s basically about the point we humans inevitably come to when we realize that the knots and twists in relationships simply can’t be untangled, and we’re left dangling with a massive question mark with no apparent resolution. Why? Why? Why? Haven’t we all asked that question of ourselves and the universe?” Born on December 25, 1954, Ann Lennox has become one of the most popular British artists of all time. Including her achievements with Eurythmics, she has sold over 80 million albums throughout the world. Furthermore, the so very gifted contralto has earned six Brit Awards for Best Female Artist : A RECORD! As a public figure, Annie Lennox has adopted an array of looks, creating an eye-catching profile. In the early 1980s, she frequently wore men’s clothes and kept her hair short, generating question marks... “It was a kind of slightly subversive statement”, according to the artist. Interestingly, Miss Lennox was never into drugs, alcohol or whatnot connected with the milieu. On tour, she requests goods such as raw vegetables and tea. In 2010, the statuesque Scottish “diva” was named an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) for her work with charities fighting AIDS and poverty in Africa. She received the award from Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace in 2011. Let’s hope the lady doesn’t “learn to keep her big mouth shut” anytime soon. ❤️❓❤️ * Isn’t self-doubt typical of the finest ones?
I think what is missing from a lot of mainstream music today is the lyrical angst and melodic tones that really speak to how heartbreaking and challenging it can sometimes be to walk this world as a human being. Life unfortunately isn't always happy nor is it kind. We have bouts of confusion, loneliness and outright despair. Sometimes a song can speak to those emotions which is why I go back to ballads from the 70's 80's and 90's. They truly don't make music like this anymore.....
Well set spot on if you don't make music like this anymore but it should be played on the radio today take off that rap music that don't make a damn bit of sense but Annie Lennox Eurythmics and this type of music does and the music from the 60s 70s and 80s and 90s make perfect sense thanks God bless
cause labels are GREEDY . allowing "the watered down sound" to be trending . they know it's garbage and don't care just to grab a fast buck ! youtube is our time machine for those who remember what Good Music Arrangements were !
I always thought that this was about her still born child, it fits so many situations, loss, disappointment, relationship break down. It crushes me everytime I hear it but it is hauntingly beautiful, music like this will always stand the test of time because it speaks to us all on a personal level. The album was a masterpiece, not a lot else I can say really.
This song hits home with me. I was with my wife for 36 years and learned that l didn't know her at all. A true narcissist and a very good actress too. I feel like a complete idiot, she did everything wrong that you can imagine. My friends coworkers strangers and who knows what else. She's gone now but I'll never be right. It's far too much to comprehend after all of that time. I basically just exist. Go to work and go home. I do love my dog and my girlfriend but it's hard on her because l have trust issues...imagine that. ☮❤ people if you have a good one don't let them go.
I’ve never really known love, and anyone who I loved me abandoned me at some point. I’ve never known a truly kind word; anything that seemed ”nice” was really just a cake laced with poison and a knife in the back. I wonder if it’s my fault for being so kind, but I learned my lesson. I’ll never open myself up to a relationship of any kind that’s deeper than friendship again. The hurt is too deep.
We were married for 22 years. I suspected he was having an affair but he was a narcissist and kept telling me I was crazy. He was always putting me down. I finally had enough and left. I found out he played this song and cried. He never tried to get me back and a few weeks later he had his new supply. I will never love again. I often wonder if he will ever be sorry for hurting me the way he did.
@ Phillip Steven..... hang in there and try and be present with your gf. Do not let your ex pull you down. Use some distraction techniques to keep her out of your thoughts and give gratitude that you survived and for your gf. You can do it man :)))
Annie Lennox is the boldest, smartest singer of my time. I first heard this song soon after getting "ghosted" by an amazing lady down South. "WHY" and the way Annie sculpts every syllable of it...helped me understand "soulmate" and that my circumstances were exactly as they had to be. Thanks to Annie Lennox and to that soulful woman with the knee-buckling smile who taught me how to pick North Carolina blueberries.
Crying right now. Because this song says so much about my life. From "I tell myself too many times why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut"..to "Some things are better left unsaid but they still turn me inside out..". Annie's voice is one of the most passionate voices around..and NOBODY else could sing this song better..NOBODY. Love you Annie from the bottom of my heart..
It's been several years since I heard "Why.". The power of those lyrics sung by Annie's voice. It is in a class of its own. God, how I love this song. Thank you, Ms. Lennox.
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever listened to in ANY genre. I can't make it through the beginning without crying like crazy. What an incredible talent.
Elle Meek Because to not be able to acquire understanding for complex and/or painful emotions is one of the most painful experiences that a human can experience. So that is why it’s tragic.
I lost my Dad the day after Christmas of 2019 to brain cancer I have such a hard time trying to over come the lost I lost the man that didnt have a good childhood to having anything he wanted because he worked so hard for 33 yrs in the county at the age 61 my dad was gone. I play this song when I feel down because this was my dad's favorite. When I play it I tell him this song is for you dad.
I’m in a laundromat that’s playing this song and I had to look it up to read the lyrics. I’m in tears because my Mom recently passed and we had argued the day she died. Then we made up and the day was going great. Then she had a heart attack right in front of me. We had a rocky relationship in my early years but the last three years we were finally getting along better than we ever had.
Gorgeous, haunting, beautiful. Perfect backing and harmonies all coming together. God, I wish I had the power to have sung this. Classic Nineties, why can't we have more of this instead of the crap nowadays?
Today. I understood Annie Lennox’s song “Why”. Such such a brilliantly beautiful song. And extremely beautiful video. I can identify the meaning and sadness of the song. Beautifully written.
Omg I'm reading all y'alls comments and I love that you guys are open I literally just found out my boyfriend was cheating on me 😞 shit bro this song says it all
So sorry to hear that, but your boyfriend is the fool not you, and it's his loss he doesn't deserve a beautiful honest girl like you xxx 'cheaters are losers anyhow xxx
I heard this song a few days ago. I've not heard it for some time. Now I can't seem to get it out of my mind. It has taken me back to a place I had forgotten. Thanks annie for sharing your music with us.
Annie is my all time favourite female artist , hands down . This is a true classic from a truly classic female . Thankyou for this and thank you Annie for the voice behind the angel .
Wonderful images of flowers, which bloom in this video to highlight the hope that love can flourish ... combined with the poignant words of this song: "This is the book I never read... These are the words I never said... This is the path i’ll never tread...These are the dreams i’ll dreams instead... This is the joy that’s seldom spread... these are the tears... The tears we shed” Thanks for posting.
MASTERPIECE....THRILLS AND EMOTIONS....LONELYNESS ....TRUTH ...LOVE ..PAIN....PIECE OF GOLD THIS SONG ..SUCH A MARVELLOUS ARTIST LENNOX..BRIGHT LADY ...
Le meravigliose immagini di fiori che sbocciano in questo splendido video unite con le parole struggenti di questa canzone: …” Questo è il libro che non ho mai letto... Queste sono le parole che non ho mai detto... Questo è il sentiero che non ho mai percorso... Questi, invece, sono i sogni che io farò... Questa è la gioia che raramente viene irradiata... Queste le lacrime … Le lacrime che abbiamo versato...", sottolineano la speranza che l’amore potrebbe rifiorire. Thanks for sharing
Yes, this beautiful song is about heartbreak but I also find it empowering. She's opening up and exposing her true emotions. There's something healthy about that.
I always pretend that I can belt this song out like Annie Lennox (even though I can’t carry a tune). This song says what I’m feeling sometimes and touches my soul when I hear it. “This boat is sinking” to “let’s cast away those doubts”. Let’s work on this. Why shut me up? Why not listen to me rant and rave and get it (& the tears) out?? Feelings, in this song, if allowed to be said, could save a marriage or bring peace to the self. This song will always be powerful and cathartic.
I WENT TO SEE HER AT CENTRAL PARK IN '95 SHE SANG THIS SAD BUT BEAUTIFUL SONG I ABSOLUTELY ENJOYED IT VERY MUCH BRINGS BACK LOTS OF GREAT MEMORIES SHE'S ONE OF MY FAVORITE FEMALE SINGER ANNIE LENNOX!!! 😎👍❤
Ricordo una mia vacanza in Grecia ad Itaca e Zakintos e la voce angelica di Annie Lennox , in sottofondo insieme al rumore del mare... Indimenticabile!
Some songs just really pull at your heart,and everytime it leaves me feeling vulnerable because because I'm right there,in the midst of human turbulance
Annie steps outside herself and sheds her feelings across the divide. It's music you can make your won words fit the intensity of emotion. This is real human stuff and human experience in desperate hope.
one of my favorite tunes....always makes me wanna travel to Europe for some reason...never fails. I guess I need to make time to do that now that COVID has calmed down somewhat. Annie is a legend...in her own time.
Thank you Annie Lennox for the magical soulful music you have produced over the years. I could drive to the ends of the earth and back just listening to soulful music like this.
This song is a slice of heaven, listening to this song makes me sad and makes you think how someone who you loved and trusted so much can change in the blink of an eye and how your world can be tipped upside down and you loose everything. Wish we could turn back the clocks but we cannot all we can do is move forward and hope good things can happen on the way.
First time i heard this song..I was traveling to a power lifting meet.This song stuck to me....It really elevates something inside me i just can't explain.But it feels smooth.
This is playing in the background while Christopher and Adriana are talking at the beginning of their love together in Sopranos. Just wanted to come listen and now I'm depressed from all the ppl crying on the comments
Very aware and beautiful song, and the flowers are a great addition to the video. I remember this song from high school. I love this and "No More I love You's" to this day. Annie Lennox is such a great artist and feels the world from a tough place. Really brings me back the 90s and my youth, and at that time I just liked how things sounded and was very confused and jaded. But now I see the beauty of her words.
The flowers are more than a great addition, I think. It's a bloom in desperate times, or desperation, offers beauty, light and promise. Which is why she asks why when it's abloom for him
I woke up to this song on a beautiful spring morning in 1992 when I was about to graduate college. When I heard this song, I realized that a spectacular woman I had fallen in love with two years earlier but who considered me only as a friend wasn't going to be either going forward. It was time to move on.
This is one of those songs that you hope you don't hear in public or while in the presence of others because undoubtedly there will be tears. It can take you down whenever and wherever you are 😂.
I remember listening to this song from the TV show on fox called Brimstone, sadly the show was short lived. I loved the show and I loved this song. I was 13 when heard this song... Stuck with me for all this time.
I love how you incorporated all the blooming flowers in this video to accent this wonderful song. I'm sure Annie and also my self appreciates it. Thanks
It wouldn't exactly destroy this if I knew what it was about exactly. It's the seeming amorphous and changing nature of the lyrics with that music which trips me into trance , a trance of beauty and , yes, my God , a higher conciousness ,accepting all that is , in the present and beyond this place, where I'm staying all the time, it shows how close we really are to what is divine, ourselves held in amazements. I don't know how much more I could say.
Every time I feel lost, I listen to this song and come to conclusion that they wouldn't really know how I feel. It perfectly suits all the emotions that stirs me from within. Thank you for this classic. Why?
Anaid O. Yvw :)
I love that there's other people out there, that run to this song, when we're feeling lost. I hope everything is going better for you:)
Here's what I don't get, how could 61 people dislike this?
Oh Sedin, from BC too? I feel like Annie is such an underrated artist. These people just perhaps can't "relate" or just have the need to put a thumbs down
Anaid O. I am from BC. I agree with you and I think those people need to listen to more Annie Lennox, then they would get it
My niece used to sing this song all the time when she was 12 and living with me. I told her why are you singing such a sad adult song and she said she liked it. She was abducted and murdered from her home when she was 14 when she went back to live with her mother. I had them play this song at her funeral. We never found her body. Her name is Jessie Kay Peters. I mourn her very day. I loved her so much.
Oh...I am sooo sorry big hug to you x
Charylene Mccain I’m so sorry. That is such a tragedy.
My heart aches for you...may Jessie rest in peace...
Hay I'm comment you on how it's going and did you find her
And are you doing well
I sent this to my estranged son. I hope
He listened. 😢

That's exactly where we go when we leave this world, we simply go home and we catch up with those who went before us.
God bless her. Forever by our Lord's side. DEUS VULT.
I died in 2020 and came back.
There is more.
Today would have been my 18th wedding anniversary. I woke up with this in my head. It kind of says it all.
It is a very thoughtful experience to listen to this song. I was married for 35 yrs. I feel your pain.
Probably the saddest, most emotional and yet tragically beautiful songs ever written. Absolutely brilliant!
Ja....so true
It happened to me...
When I listen to this song it reminds me of someone who is very sad about a relationship that is about to fall apart! Something that can't be saved anymore because somewhere along the line it is gone this boat is sinking this boat is sinking this boat is sinking! It's a sad song but it's a beautiful song because that's how a lot of relationships end! And the sad thing is you have to say WHY? How many times do I have to tell you how sorry I am for the things I've done? I will always love this song! ❤️
Beautiful. I learned that she wrote it when she was 38, separating from her partner. ❤️
If this song doesn’t stir up the sorrow in your soul then I don’t know what does. ❤
I love this song. My daughter hasn't spoken to me in several years.
I wasn't the best mom, but who is.
🥺

2021 and I'm still crying to this song.

Hugs💚I empathize. Why do people do the hurtful things they do😐???
I’ve never really known love, and anyone who I loved me abandoned me at some point.

Can’t listen to this without memories falling out of my eyes ….
I used to love this as a teenager.
After years had went by and the heart has known turmoils, it gets a completely different meaning now.
Me too...
I hope you had a good decade
This came out at the same time my father passed away and I can't help but cry when I hear it.
Annie Lennox is the boldest, smartest singer of my time. I first heard this song soon after getting "ghosted" by an amazing lady down South. "WHY" and the way Annie sculpts every syllable of it...helped me understand "soulmate" and that my circumstances were exactly as they had to be. Thanks to Annie Lennox and to that soulful woman with the knee-buckling smile who taught me how to pick North Carolina blueberries.
This is one of those songs that never get old and fit every taste and every mood.
A masterpiece ❤️
Crying right now. Because this song says so much about my life. From "I tell myself too many times why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut"..to "Some things are better left unsaid but they still turn me inside out..". Annie's voice is one of the most passionate voices around..and NOBODY else could sing this song better..NOBODY. Love you Annie from the bottom of my heart..
Exactly. ♡
Yep. My 26 year relationship is ending as I write this. So many regrets.....😥
Maryann Burrows so sorry....I understand...xx
yeah
@@mimib6893I'm so sorry
It's been several years since I heard "Why.". The power of those lyrics sung by Annie's voice. It is in a class of its own. God, how I love this song. Thank you, Ms. Lennox.
The most painful breakup song ever written in my opinion
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever listened to in ANY genre. I can't make it through the beginning without crying like crazy. What an incredible talent.
Ditto. I can't imagine anyone else doing this song justice. It was made for her.
I'm right along with you mate.
"I don't think you know how I feel"...Tragic, but real in any relationship...
YES.
#MagusForeva ! I’m not that great at reading minds. Why TRAGIC? believe me. I know the meaning of the word.
Elle Meek
Because to not be able to acquire understanding for complex and/or painful emotions is one of the most painful experiences that a human can experience.
So that is why it’s tragic.
The five stages of grief is represented in distinctively in this song: Denial,Anger,Bargaining,Depression and Acceptance
I often listen to this when the sun is going down and the fog starts rolling in. Absolutely beautiful combination.
I should try that
I lost my Dad the day after Christmas of 2019 to brain cancer I have such a hard time trying to over come the lost I lost the man that didnt have a good childhood to having anything he wanted because he worked so hard for 33 yrs in the county at the age 61 my dad was gone. I play this song when I feel down because this was my dad's favorite. When I play it I tell him this song is for you dad.
Back when ballads were felt with raw emotion, thankx
This song was always mine. From the age of 15. This song...Annie is my soul's musician. ♡
I’m in a laundromat that’s playing this song and I had to look it up to read the lyrics. I’m in tears because my Mom recently passed and we had argued the day she died. Then we made up and the day was going great. Then she had a heart attack right in front of me. We had a rocky relationship in my early years but the last three years we were finally getting along better than we ever had.
Beautiful song. Kinda makes me sad though. Annie Lennox is superb!
A timeless classic, always loved this song 😊
For my mum who died recently never accepted me or her 2 grandchildren! Planning to play this down my local beach and say goodbye .
I understand. 🎈
Gorgeous, haunting, beautiful. Perfect backing and harmonies all coming together. God, I wish I had the power to have sung this. Classic Nineties, why can't we have more of this instead of the crap nowadays?
Today. I understood Annie Lennox’s song “Why”. Such such a brilliantly beautiful song. And extremely beautiful video. I can identify the meaning and sadness of the song. Beautifully written.
Omg I'm reading all y'alls comments and I love that you guys are open I literally just found out my boyfriend was cheating on me 😞 shit bro this song says it all
So sorry to hear that, but your boyfriend is the fool not you, and it's his loss he doesn't deserve a beautiful honest girl like you xxx 'cheaters are losers anyhow xxx
"... that's why it hurts so bad to hear the words that keep falling from your mouth ..."
I heard this song a few days ago. I've not heard it for some time. Now I can't seem to get it out of my mind. It has taken me back to a place I had forgotten. Thanks annie for sharing your music with us.
Frank Fitch For some reason I just thought of it and looked it up. Probably 10 years since I heard it. Amazing.
I want this sang at my funeral it tells my story of what i been throughout my life ....😪
Annie is my all time favourite female artist , hands down . This is a true classic from a truly classic female . Thankyou for this and thank you Annie for the voice behind the angel .
kimshred You Are Very Welcome :)
First album I ever bought myself was Medusa. I was in love with her voice...hers and Bowie's. ♡
Wonderful images of flowers, which bloom in this video to highlight the hope that love can flourish ... combined with the poignant words of this song:
"This is the book I never read... These are the words I never said... This is the path i’ll never tread...These are the dreams i’ll dreams instead... This is the joy that’s seldom spread... these are the tears... The tears we shed”
Thanks for posting.
One of the most under rated songs ever. Can't help of thinking of the ones we have lost in life when listening to this song.
MASTERPIECE....THRILLS AND EMOTIONS....LONELYNESS ....TRUTH ...LOVE ..PAIN....PIECE OF GOLD THIS SONG ..SUCH A MARVELLOUS ARTIST LENNOX..BRIGHT LADY ...

Why - Annie Lennox (With Lyrics)
LOVE THIS SONG ALWAYS..!!!
An outpouring of great lamentations which fits perfectly with the background music.
"Brian, that was amazing! No one's ever stood up for me like that before"
This song makes me feel such strong emotion. My relationship summed up..this song has so many meanings to different people.
Yes, this beautiful song is about heartbreak but I also find it empowering. She's opening up and exposing her true emotions. There's something healthy about that.
Absolutely...great point.
I always pretend that I can belt this song out like Annie Lennox (even though I can’t carry a tune). This song says what I’m feeling sometimes and touches my soul when I hear it. “This boat is sinking” to “let’s cast away those doubts”. Let’s work on this. Why shut me up? Why not listen to me rant and rave and get it (& the tears) out?? Feelings, in this song, if allowed to be said, could save a marriage or bring peace to the self. This song will always be powerful and cathartic.
GOD hears my tears-
I WENT TO SEE HER AT CENTRAL PARK IN '95 SHE SANG THIS SAD BUT BEAUTIFUL SONG I ABSOLUTELY ENJOYED IT VERY MUCH BRINGS BACK LOTS OF GREAT MEMORIES SHE'S ONE OF MY FAVORITE FEMALE SINGER ANNIE LENNOX!!! 😎👍❤
Wasn’t New York fabulous in the 90s? I dream of it everyday. Sweet post.
WOW what a perfect interpretation I do not have he words. THANK YOU
You're very welcome
Ricordo una mia vacanza in Grecia ad Itaca e Zakintos e la voce angelica di Annie Lennox , in sottofondo insieme al rumore del mare... Indimenticabile!
"some things are better left unsaid"
Sandra Vidal so true. You'll never know what's gonna happen if you say it
Yes. Somethings are better left unsaid but they still turn you inside out.
Great song I remember it from back in the day
Yes they are....
Some songs just really pull at your heart,and everytime it leaves me feeling vulnerable because because I'm right there,in the midst of human turbulance
The world's anthem at the moment
A really wonderful song ...
Annie steps outside herself and sheds her feelings across the divide. It's music you can make your won words fit the intensity of emotion. This is real human stuff and human experience in desperate hope.
Chanson sublime qui nous transporte au 7ème ciel !!!
I picked up my phone during this message and the song "Why?" by Annie Lennox came on. Okay, tell me why...
Thanks Lizzy Lee❤❤
Wonderful & Monumental 💙💙💙💙💙
So beautifully represented Kevin!!!!!!!! Sadness & Beauty. Annie is AMAZING!!!
This song always makes me feel some type of way.
one of my favorite tunes....always makes me wanna travel to Europe for some reason...never fails. I guess I need to make time to do that now that COVID has calmed down somewhat. Annie is a legend...in her own time.
my mama dedicated this song to me when I was a kid...I love u mama..via con dios!
Beautiful song, makes me a bit emotional
Resonates with ever broken ❤️. An evergreen classic in every way - songwriting, vocal acuity and composition.
She sings about a relationship break up with undertones of the 5 stages of grief, depression, denial, anger, acceptance and anger. 🥲☮️🌈
Thank you Annie Lennox for the magical soulful music you have produced over the years. I could drive to the ends of the earth and back just listening to soulful music like this.
Perfect song...hi everybody from Greece.........Γεια σας........
This song is a slice of heaven, listening to this song makes me sad and makes you think how someone who you loved and trusted so much can change in the blink of an eye and how your world can be tipped upside down and you loose everything. Wish we could turn back the clocks but we cannot all we can do is move forward and hope good things can happen on the way.
First time i heard this song..I was traveling to a power lifting meet.This song stuck to me....It really elevates something inside me i just can't explain.But it feels smooth.
I just love the way this is sung, it has no meaning foe me. I am never sorry for the things I do. The higher power is right by me.❤😅
I miss my furbaby, he was put to sleep wks ago. This song was playing the day I had to put him down😭
This is playing in the background while Christopher and Adriana are talking at the beginning of their love together in Sopranos. Just wanted to come listen and now I'm depressed from all the ppl crying on the comments
Very aware and beautiful song, and the flowers are a great addition to the video. I remember this song from high school. I love this and "No More I love You's" to this day. Annie Lennox is such a great artist and feels the world from a tough place. Really brings me back the 90s and my youth, and at that time I just liked how things sounded and was very confused and jaded. But now I see the beauty of her words.
The flowers are more than a great addition, I think.
It's a bloom in desperate times, or desperation, offers beauty, light and promise. Which is why she asks why when it's abloom for him
This is for My Husband Steve .. it's time you understood the words & what you are doing 😭 xxx
💐 Thank You Dicey 😘

What a beautiful and thought inducing song by the queen of music
I think about love I’ve had and lost and yes I cry, I cry so hard
Pure talent , pure bliss xxx
Annie Absolute Angel
I loved that they had this song in the movie Hope Springs
I woke up to this song on a beautiful spring morning in 1992 when I was about to graduate college. When I heard this song, I realized that a spectacular woman I had fallen in love with two years earlier but who considered me only as a friend wasn't going to be either going forward. It was time to move on.
This is one of those songs that you hope you don't hear in public or while in the presence of others because undoubtedly there will be tears. It can take you down whenever and wherever you are 😂.
This song says what I’m feeling sometimes and touches my soul.
Stand out track from Annie. Timeless.
I remember listening to this song from the TV show on fox called Brimstone, sadly the show was short lived. I loved the show and I loved this song. I was 13 when heard this song... Stuck with me for all this time.
❤️🙌🏾 I absolutely love this song!❤️
Awesome to the MAX!!!
One of my all-time favorite songs! Annie, I love you. CEASEFIRE NOW!
this is an everlasting treasure fo me' we love you Annie' God bless you.......
It is her Best song and it may me remember the years when I was working in a disco.. Café Cantante Mi Habana.Cuba.
I love how you incorporated all the blooming flowers in this video to accent this wonderful song. I'm sure Annie and also my self appreciates it. Thanks
For all of sadness and harmony that we see and feel in our lives but we still ❤🤍💗
It wouldn't exactly destroy this if I knew what it was about exactly. It's the seeming amorphous and changing nature of the lyrics with that music which trips me into trance , a trance of beauty and , yes, my God , a higher conciousness ,accepting all that is , in the present and beyond this place, where I'm staying all the time, it shows how close we really are to what is divine, ourselves held in amazements. I don't know how much more I could say.
Love this song. ❤😢
I love this song been listening to it for years
THIS IS THE SONG OF ALL MY LIFE!!
Great song lyrics paint an emotional picture
