The only DIVA in my humble opinion. Everybody else is just aiming for it.


bawling my eyes out.
I love you Annie. Thank you so much for this.


Became delusional…


What a lovely sentiment!


This song will be one of the songs I want played when I eventually shuffle off this old stage. The poetry deeply moves me so my friends and family will hear a little about what deeply moves me. It is sublime


She is the true Diva. Drag queens can never come close to this.
Love how the children start to become aggressive, even harassing the fucking pigeons.
Annie Lennox the best!


both SUBLIME & HAUNTING!


***** BRILLIANT *****


It’s not frivolous at all. It expresses all the feelings you name, just in a different way. A woman wearing an ostentatious costume and mask, hiding her true self in playing a tourist attraction. It’s nothing other than profoundly beautiful.


I heard this for the first time in the credits for that film too,and it made me cry so much =(
It’s so beautiful,though.


If you knew about the destruction of Venice, not from the sea but through touriism and the decadence of the republics decline (1700′s) you would undestand. John


don’t hate annie lennox because she’s superior to you in the looks and talent department. oh, she’s also richer … LOL


I thought it was a tranny at first.


I love her, I love her and I LOVE HER, never will I stop to. This song is beautiful but the video is inapropriate, it’s too frivolous for a profound text. I should have been shot in the north EU, maybe in Wales framing our wondeful coast, so as to convey inwardness, deepness, enquiry, feelings.


I first heard this song on the closing credits for Sharon Stone’s death row drama, Last Dance. I was sold on the lyric’s heartfelt content and I immediately asked my mom to buy me a copy of Annie Lennox’ opus, Diva.

I dedicate this beautiful song to the memory of my beloved former president: Corazon Aquino. Thanks so much for the perfect gift…


I do agree with you ! Listening to Annie makes us thinking… with tearful eyes


Played this song for the first time yesterday, right before I got a call that my beloved grandma just passed away. With tearful eyes I listened to this song while mourning the loss.

If words seem inadequate to express my sorrow, this beautiful song does.


She is a Diva… really… Her voice takes my heart…


This captures perfectly the dilemma of the non-conformist… conspicuous in her solitude but never really seen for who she is.

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched this, wanting more. It’s like trying to grasp the perfume of a passing stranger.


its funny how i find myself in love with you :-)


This is one of her best…Great song!


You know Annie… I donĀ“t know if you will ever read this but you have a fan for life in a beautiful land called COSTA RICA.

I love your music and hope someday you will tour here!

Much love from COSTA RICA, the first country to abolish its army in America.

PEACE!!!!!!!


Annie is cool, smart, loveable, appealing,inimitable, passionate, superb,
and she sings real good. Love you, Annie.


Very lovely, brilliant song. You can listen it for thousand times


Tan Estupenda Annie, siempre tan hermosa !!!!!

Bravo !
