Annie Lennox

Today I want to tell you something about a singer, Annie Lennox, who has gained phenomenal success and because of her extraordinary voice. There's a lot of pain and intensity in her music.  I like her songs which are timeless. Annie Lennox is always very focused on making music which is her main motivation.
On a stage she is very energetic and confident. But when she was a student she was quite shy and she sang only to herself.  She learned and learned songs because she was just addicted to music. When someone asked Annie about her voice she  answered: “it sounds like something between Stevie Wonder and Joni Mitchell”.
            When she was a waitress in a cafe she met Dave Stewart and after a few days they started to work together and they formed the first band called "The Tourists". They toured across America, Europe and Australia. However their realtionship broke up at the time when "Eurythmics" started. She becames really famous.
In her opinion music is a wonderful platform to help other people. That's why Annie helps different charities such as  Amnesty International.
