I luv this performance....watching it gave me goose bumps and I never forgot it. GREAT GREAT performance...

[Brenngunn]

I believe this to be one of the finest performances on the Idol stage... EVER! The depth she reaches in me... gives me chills every time! You perform your songs all your life and you think you have emotion in them ... until you see this. It's humbling!

[IgorB88]

this performance made me cry the first time i saw it, and it still does after i saw it for more than 10 times in the past year.. i think i will carry this performance with me forever. it is soooo heartfelt, you can almost feel her heart crying..

she is truly one of the best vocalists of our time and i feel privileged to have heard this performance.

Thank you Annie Lennox for making me humble again and make me realize there are many people in the world that dont get it as good in life as i do.

[mkbr2007]

So talented and gifted with one of the best voices, also a very beautiful looking woman.

[jd5503]

God bless you Annie

You've given us 25 years of joy

[PikachuFans93]

2:00 gave me the chills

[colwild]

just wonderful. Take away all the processing and other instruments. Just piano and a voice, and you really tell how beautiful someone's voice is.

[gimlied]

One of the top 10 greatest female vocalists in the past 100 years. And unlike many she gets to carry her talent into her golden years.

[zaodizao]

@gimlied

So classy! Something that badly lacks today , oh along with great talent , real artists are humbled by music

[kfudd]

This is so incredibly beautiful! Annie Lennox is brilliant

[LaurenPlusPeople]

she is phenominal! One of my favorite live performances ever!!!

[MrPesic]

bravo!

[2westr]

What A Great Women!

What She Does For Africa Is Fantastic

[cali4nia4me]

@2westr - Yes, I absolutely agree with you -- And what she does for ALL OF US by raising awareness and connecting us as human beings, one race, a single species. It's all fantastic! Love this performance and it's taken me long enough to find it since this 1st aired on American Idol. Moving performance... I never forgot it and I didn't even know this song before it aired (I must be the only person around who didn't know it, huh?;-)

[nwedlehi]

when i saw lennox video "shining light" i thought she was man

[tigersaregreat99]

How could you mistake a body like Annie Lennox has for a man? She is very special in many ways. I have family members that think like you and it's disappointing. What are you doing to help this world? Your comment here is not.

[kfudd]

Whether you think she looks like a man or woman I'm sure you couldn't do what she does. Write or sing a song as well as she does and then you'll have room to critisize her, until then keep your childish comments to yourself my friend!

[draw09nowsinglater]

amazing. Gave me chills at 2:06. But the whole song is amazing n amazing...:D

[Hodan94]

I remember my WHOLE family crying when we saw this on TV last year! x

[rsmhsv]
