Here in 2023.. the feelings and emotions that run through my body and soul can't be put to words listening to this mesmerising performance.. thank you for this.. cant get enough of it.. heard it so many times and will listen to it many hundreds of times more throughout my life.. I'm a man down to the bone and yet it speaks to each one of our soul man, women or otherwise.. love you Annie.. thank you ...
I'm a man... I'm a man who goes out and loves to fight... I'm a man who loves hockey, who loves Harleys, who loves Van Halen and anything Rock and Roll !!! But more than anything I love powerful songs!!! This is a Powerful, Powerful, Powerful song, that stops me in my tracks, and immediately brings me to tears!!! What a beautiful, sad, and powerful song, backed by an equally beautiful singer, in Annie Lennox!! Thank you!!!
Have loved and cherished Why for 30 years, first time I heard this and cherish it far more than the album version. Annie Lennox is phenomenal without any hyperbole. Just wow! Why? Because Annie Lennox!
My mom and I saw Return Of The King on opening day in 2003. She passed away in September of 2018. We loved LOTR & this song reminds me of her. With you till the end of the line ❤️
A standing ovation before she even walks 10 feet on stage.That's what happens are one of top 5 women singers of all time. ... Her range is almost untouchable!
WOW Something VERY VERY SPECIAL. Beautiful and Perfect. A Great Piece of Art as Good as ANYTHING This Lady is TRUE Human. A true Lady . Thank you so Much
There are so few artist (truest form of the word) that could deliver this song in the range that she did, the raw emotion that she showed AND dead stop,TWICE, turn to the audience and grin. As if to say, "You're eating this shit up...ain't ya'?! It's not arrogant, or cocky. It's a self-assuradness that's pure and warranted. She's even a little embarassed when she got the standing ovation before the song and after. A diva with humility. A rare trait.
I cannot listen to this song without it bringing me to tears. It puts into words the emotions of my relationship with my daughter. It's a painfully, beautiful song.
Yes , this masterpiece speaks to the often gut-wrenching human experience of love in all of it’s forms. None any less powerful than another. Three+ years after my mom passed, what is the biggest thing I want her to know, that I hope and pray that she knows? The words and the way they are expressed here tells it all.
Can you imagine Annie comes out before Taylor Swift, performs this one song, quietly gets up,bows to the applause, then quietly leaves the stage, and the building, incredible performance, always brings me to tears,😢.
One if not the best performance of this song. The way she's able to go do crescendos and decrescendos is unreal. I didn't grow up with her music except for knowing sweet dreams but the older I get the more I appreciate her vocals
Yes, it is inevitable that times change, that humanity merges into imprecise borders; but there it is always invincible: the exquisite talent that atavistically reminds us of what we are and will be. And then, silence.
This life is superb. It gives us a chance to live again, specially after listening to this song by spectacular Annie. We need to live seeing tears in eyes. It is how it should be
10 - I mean, what improvement could you make? This is what one can produce when they have raw talent and then master their craft. Absolutely crushed it. Wow
I love this. I can't imagine how many times I've shared it. I love the fist pump at the end. One of, if not THE most riveting solo performance I think I've ever seen.
I agree. I love the first time she stops playing and looks at the audience. I love to watch her enjoying her skill and talent. It's not arrogance. It's just being confident and comfortable sharing something that others appreciate.
So nice, thank you. The question why i am asking myself any minute , asking it tarot cards because nobody is helping me with a once upon a time......normal conversation . The question WHY, drives one crazy sad mad . The one question where is No answer available. Never. 😭❤️❤️❤️
The depths of artistic talent between Annie and Dave. Just wow. During the Eurythmics years he was out front as the genius of the music. When Lennox came out with her solo work it was a revelation.
One of the best solo live performances i have ever seen. I grew up with this Arista Records DVD. Santana, Annie Lennox, Whitney Houston, Barry Manilow, Patti Smith, Toni Braxton, Brooks and Dunn and on and on! So many memories...
OMG! I love you Annie Lennox. . . I thank the Lord for the blessing that is your life. And I will never be able to know how you feel but I know that you know how I feel. God bless you always.
![Annie Lennox - Why + Walking on Broken Glass [1992]](/img/n.gif)
I have been a soldier for the last 30 years. And Annie Lennox is the only one that made me cry
🤟🏼
It's one of the few songs that makes me cry, I always think of friends and family who are no longer with us.
Possibly the best performance by any human being, ever.
This performance must be one of the best ever given by any artist.
Annie live is..... perfection ❤️
Her song cold is pretty remarkable too.
Couldnt agree more , brother! Couldnt agree more!

Back here again in June 2024…. Pure, pure emotion. Still give me the chills when I hear this
Over twenty years later - I still get chills when I listen to this.
So do i ...i love her so much she is wonderful!!
My mom and I saw Return Of The King on opening day in 2003. She passed away in September of 2018. We loved LOTR & this song reminds me of her. With you till the end of the line ❤️
Meanwhile 15 years later at the 2015 Grammy's Annie Lennox still has it.
Without a doubt... one of the best female voices ever !
Absolutely!!!🎶🎤💞
I agree with that
Best voices period man or woman
Too bad her eldest daughter refuses to acknowledge that her Mom, Anne Lennox influenced her to sing. So sad.
What a beautiful song. Gosh.
This is the art and power of music that needs to be expressed more frequently. Incredible live performance.
I totally agree there is nobody on this planet like Annie
Art and power of music
She's a genius one of the greatest female artists ever
A standing ovation before she even walks 10 feet on stage.That's what happens are one of top 5 women singers of all time. ... Her range is almost untouchable!
When you....
Truly one of the greatest female singers of all times.
No autotune just pure class, something very few have and almost none of the so-called artist have now
lmao ok boomer
@@CSM100MK2 Will Bieber doesn’t count
Lost a good friend today sat here listening to sad songs that’s how I feel but this lass always makes me feel good thank you
WOW Something VERY VERY SPECIAL. Beautiful and Perfect. A Great Piece of Art as Good as ANYTHING
This Lady is TRUE Human. A true Lady . Thank you so Much

The great ones make it look so damn easy. Perfection.
"A true artist" - Truer words cannot be spoken.
True....SO TRUE!
I cannot listen to this song without it bringing me to tears. It puts into words the emotions of my relationship with my daughter. It's a painfully, beautiful song.

Absolument, I feel the same way to you! ❤
❤
Can you imagine Annie comes out before Taylor Swift, performs this one song, quietly gets up,bows to the applause, then quietly leaves the stage, and the building, incredible performance, always brings me to tears,😢.
Such a moving piece of music. I never tire of this song. Annie is astounding.
Quelle interprétation, quel talent, quelle performance artistique.
Merci Madame Lennox pour votre oeuvre 😘❤️
This song of Annie's brings me to tears anytime i hear it. Just beautiful!
I agree with you!!! She knows how to enter in our hearts!!
I love how she leaves the room immediately after her performance lol, hey I'm Annie Lennox just came here to blow you away and go back to my room :)
This song……. hits the emotional strings in my heart…strips and bleeds it raw.
Hands-down, this is her best performance of ‘Why’ ever. She made you know “how she feels.”
Prestazione impeccabile , emozionante, potente, ,
Annie bellissima ed elegante.
Superlativa.
Probably one of THE greatest songs ever written - bar none ... OUTSTANDING !! ;)
powerful stuff Annie and the timbre in her voice is like an arrow to your soul
What does it take to turn this beautiful ballad into a masterpiece? A voice,a piano and "a little bit of" soul...And Annie came up with it. Bravo!!!
Probably her most personal song. Beautiful and achingly beautiful.
My very favourite song of hers ever, amazing voice and amazing women.
One of the best live performances EVER!!
Absolutely brilliant voice❤
interesting watching this clip , at 4:35 after such a delivery , Annie knows that the audience is on the palm of her hand
The Great Annie Lennox.
One of those performances you have to hear before you die!
Wow, what a talent. She is so gracious and all class the way that she enters the stage. A true beauty.
heartbreaking yet full of swag. the lady is a legend.
why cant you see this boat is sinking? I am destroyed, love you Annie
Awesome! A mesmerizing performance. I love watching it!!!. She loved it as much as we did. Great.
She's much better live than on record IMO!
What a Queen.
Diva is one of the best albums ever recorded
This is as badass as live music gets
Great solo album
The best in the world period! I was there and I cried the entire time and I’m a mans man- simply stunning
One if not the best performance of this song. The way she's able to go do crescendos and decrescendos is unreal. I didn't grow up with her music except for knowing sweet dreams but the older I get the more I appreciate her vocals
what a beautiful song, voice and woman..
Yes this is still fucking awesome just like 23 years ago :D absolutly brilliant
She’s a diamond in the sand 😊
Holy cow, where an earth does that voice come from? Not this earth surely?
Annie you're a Legend. I love you so much. You inspire me.
Thank you.❤️
She is only of a few female singers that get me choked up just about every time she performs.
Incredible!!!
Yes, it is inevitable that times change, that humanity merges into imprecise borders; but there it is always invincible: the exquisite talent that atavistically reminds us of what we are and will be. And then, silence.
This is obe of the best live performances I have ever seen in my life.
Казковий , музичний інструмент, голос Енні Леннокс, як завжди не перевершений. БРАВО !!!❤❤❤
See kiddies-TALENT. No fake crap, thug crap, lip syncing.....REAL TALENT.
I fw both
ok boomer, get over yourself.
I’m 44 and for so we reason I don’t remember this song and artist. I love this!!
I simply cannot imagine opening my mouth and hearing that.. gift.... leave my soul and lips.... God Almighty.... I am just in awe of her.
Best Voice on this Planet.!!! Amazing...
Agreed 100%!
I agree! But after Freddie...
WOW !
Damn, this was a heartwrenching performance! I freaking love it!
This life is superb. It gives us a chance to live again, specially after listening to this song by spectacular Annie. We need to live seeing tears in eyes. It is how it should be
Deep sigh of wow. This song is heartbreaking, and wonderful all at the same time.
Probably this is why artists like Annie exist..to crush and smash our hearts..souls..and brains..
Riveting, such a powerful musical performance, her voice stirs my soul, makes me cry, this song...I love Annie Lennox! Sweet Dreams
10 - I mean, what improvement could you make? This is what one can produce when they have raw talent and then master their craft. Absolutely crushed it. Wow
I love this. I can't imagine how many times I've shared it.
I love the fist pump at the end.
One of, if not THE most riveting solo performance I think I've ever seen.
I agree, Sir. She is absolutely mindblowing. Especially in this particular performance, and I'm not even a fan. I just think she's great.
I agree. I love the first time she stops playing and looks at the audience. I love to watch her enjoying her skill and talent. It's not arrogance. It's just being confident and comfortable sharing something that others appreciate.
Check out the other ones, too. Every time a different version. And every single one is fantastic, in a different way.
if you love this as much as I do, and I think you do, then see Nina Simone , the ballad of Hollis Brown,,, and enjoy,,,, peace
performances...
this is my favorite song of all time...I like it best LIVE...She is beautiful 100%.....PEACE!
I may be blind I may be vicously unkind, cant spell it or sing it. This shit is too good.
Listening to it..10 years later it's still a 360 slam dunk..Last second Touchdown...Walkoff Grand Slam..in ONE.
BRAVO ANNIE!!
This is a true artist. Holy shit im so moved by her.
She’s the best underrated singer of all time. Annie LenNOx is truly a legEnd! The world does nOt deserves her talent!
Doesn’t get any better than that.🥰❤️
So nice, thank you. The question why i am asking myself any minute , asking it tarot cards because nobody is helping me with a once upon a time......normal conversation . The question WHY, drives one crazy sad mad . The one question where is No answer available. Never. 😭❤️❤️❤️
BEYOND AWESOME ^ BEYOND AMAZING watching ALennox play the piano!
Desperately needed some goosebumps. Came to the right place.
Goosebumps. Every time she does this live. Now THAT is an artist.
The depths of artistic talent between Annie and Dave. Just wow. During the Eurythmics years he was out front as the genius of the music. When Lennox came out with her solo work it was a revelation.
This song makes me cry........so beautiful, so poetic, and the music is simply magical.
wtf!! I have never heard this version before. My gawd.. the goosebumps!! love it!!!
Remarkable performance no doubtful.
I don’t know if I have more tears or chills while listening. Annie is ethereal
April 2021 and still listening
Doesn't get much better! Magical lady!
Her singing is without question, unbelievable..... but she IS so much more then a performer, she is a wonderful human being.
I’ve listened to this song hundreds of times and I never get tired of listening to it. Perfect beautiful song.
❤cara Annie... Che interpretazione❤ vera Artista, ti voglio bene. Mi dicono che ci rassomigliamo anche come donne nella nostra esistenza... È vero
Some performance that this song will be at my funeral.
One of the best solo live performances i have ever seen.
I grew up with this Arista Records DVD.
Santana, Annie Lennox, Whitney Houston, Barry Manilow, Patti Smith, Toni Braxton, Brooks and Dunn and on and on!
So many memories...
OMG! I love you Annie Lennox. . . I thank the Lord for the blessing that is your life. And I will never be able to know how you feel but I know that you know how I feel. God bless you always.
I don't even try to define this performance, anytime I listen to it, I let myself FEEL it
What an awesome live performance!!
Perfection! A true artist indeed. Annie is untouchable. A song that touches you to the core with emotion.
This performance... Beyond beautiful.
She's amazing
