Would get laughed out of a pub, let alone BBC Prime Time.

I don't want to see the original version. Annie is the best!

Oh dear annie

Gawd please...

I love Ash since their debut album, but not Annie Lennox's version. Somehow she managed to make this song gay.

Ash's version had that neat little indie sound to it, but this just sounds like something out of American Idol. Absolute crap.

Sorry Annie Lennox fans, I don't mean to offend you guys, but I'm just putting my 2 cents worth of opinion here.

Leave original songs alone, music industry. A lot of kids now are gonna think Annie Lennox wrote this song (which sucks now).

Homophobe piece of garbage.

I would like this song but the way she sings "light" bugs the hell out of me for some reason it's just too distracting.

It's the break in the middle of pronouncing it that does it "La ite"

I loved it!

The sound of this video clip sounds wobbly overall.

Sorry , I really thought the same but I listened again on iplayer with better sound quality (and louder) and it sounded 1000% better, honestly. I think it's the way the sound is mixed or something. Also her voice is lower now and rougher which happens over time. Not making excuses and I wouldn't say it was her best performance live, but she does actually just sing live without any miming etc. I know it sounds like an excuse but how something sounds on tv can be misleading.

thought she was horrendous and thats coming from a fan. Her voice was all over the place. she was out of tune and out of breath by looks of things. shame
