I came to this video today after reading a critic's opinion that this was a strange and angry performance by Annie Lennox......uuummm obviously the critic never saw the performance and made it up as he went along....because this was awesome!!!!!
I have watched this clip SOOOO many times since it went up in 2009. Annie Lennox is UNBELIEVABLE. This is one of my favorite solo accoustic performances of any artist ever.
This was absolutely amazing, I adore her... those who said 'because of her age'??? WTF does that mean? And also, to 40950999: I watched the Logies, I didn't see Gretel for three hours?!? I doubt she would have had 30 minutes of air-time...
I thought this was fabulous....at least she didn't need or use any echo microphone assistance like one of the other female vocalists used on the same show !!

I'm such a fan of the original that I didn't like this performance at all, Sorry Annie but you killed this song for me, I went straight onto Youtube just to hear the original...not a good song with just piano...such a shame...but I still love your music...just not the Logie version...
i have read a few of the comments saying she didn't sound good--i don't get it personally--i LOVE the rawness and richness of her voice-its everything i want in a live performance--its torchsong raw emotion--not pretty sacharine singing contest aka american idol--she is so unique and i like her voice as it matures very much! just me humble opinion:)
its such a difficult song to sing live, for her age i think she did a great job with it...sure she had to change it a bit to work with the piano, i think she did pretty well, esp hitting those top notes!
Anyway the logies always suck for one reason or another, very second rate.
im probably gonna be hated by everyone who is watching this. but i really didnt liek that. i was watchijgn borat then switched it over int he ads. and then saw it and was like wtf. she reminds me of a lsiten who is dieing for soem reason. soz people not for meshes a freak ands ounds bad
simplement époustouflant

The Logies are Australia's TV awards. Our version of the Emmys, if you will.. Problem is that most Aussie television is shite.

Thanks for the performance Annie! It was the only way that the Logies could have recovered from having to deal with Gretel Kileen for three hours...

WOW, was never a big fan but damn she has a great voice and the way she powered out of the 1st few bars shows what a pro she is. Thanks Annie xxx

Along with Dusty Springfield, one of the only white (or islander, whatever) women who can sing soul.
(Looking at you Australian Idol, responsible for so much awful, awful music.)
God bless you, Annie.
