And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Several years ago Rolling Stone put out a list of the 50 best female voices in rock. They did not include Annie Lennox in the group! They did have some real stinkers in there, though. This proves to me that Rolling Stone is NOT worth the paper it's printed on. Might not be bad in an outhouse situation, though.
If you had told me in the '80s that I would specify that an Annie Lennox song be played at my funeral, I'd have laughed in your face. Then she recorded "Into the West" for the LOTR films, and demonstrated that hers is one of the greatest female voices of all time.
i would tend to agree...Diva is one of my favorite albums...every song on that album is good...she def had a voice...her, sade, tracey thorn, alison moyet...all from the 80's, all could run circles around the tards singing today...if you all are 80s fans, look up Laurel on youtube...nice voice, lots of 80's vibes...and Nuovo Testamento...they sound like they came straight from the 80's with that 80's italian disco sound...saw them in austin last month with my 20 year old
Horrible nightmares are made of that song...playing over and over and over from 1983 till 1990.....
ReplyDeleteIove that song! But, who am I to disagree
