  • they don't think we have the nerve

    they give us the nerve

    kill 'em and cry when they're dead

  • the behaviour of men and women is timeless---does not really matters where it place,over centuries or in 2011.

  • @DNAProductionsss Chrissy Hines did this song many years ago, and hearing that song took you through every step of her pain. I don't know which of these super women did the song first, but Chrissy's song hits your heart a lot harder than this version.

  • @TheBrendadale I love Chrissy's version, but Annie's version is pretty great too. It is a very well written song either way=)

  • @CARMSFAV agreed. i have both versions and love each for what they are - AWESOME!

  • @wsj0301 For sure!

  • @TheBrendadale The Persuaders did it first, in the early 70's. ;)

  • @DNAProductionsss fuck, why is my mum usin my youtube account

  • Nunca igualara a Crissie " The Pretenders", bueno lo intento....

  • mi idola!!!!

  • just plain awesome ... she's saying what so many are thinking ... plain and simple.  awesome. love it. love her voice.

  • her voice hypnotizes me xD

  • @cherryannie7 Me too! XD

  • FABULOUS! the lyrics, the production, the mix, and fcrs ANNIE. Makes me proud to be "BRITISH" , Yowsa yowsa! Gordi. (UK)

  • Terrible

  • @xbacon24 Si, es muy mala versión, le quitó toda la vida al tema.

  • a comparacion de la version original esto es una verdadera bosta

  • @ElFerto Me gusta mucho Annie Lennox pero realmente esta versión es pésima.

  • a very thin line between love and hate.........sweetest woman in the world, could be the meanest woman in the world,.......don't make her be that way!!

  • Oh, wow! Didn't know about this version! I love myself some Annie Lennox!

  • I can definitely relate to this song..............the sweetest woman in the world can be the meanest woman in the world if you make her be that way, she might be holding something in that's really gonna hurt you one of these fine days......there you are in the hospital, bandaged from foot to head, in a state of shock that much from being dead. You didn't think your woman could do something like that you, didn't think she got the nerve......accidents speak louder than words.....

  • The ending is pure soul energy, with the "C'mon baby, baby, you don't give a damn about me!" followed by that killer harmonica. Love it!

  • i love you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • great version

  • i love it...

  • Accidents speak louder than words.... sure do. Nice version of the Persuaders song.

  • Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • accidents speak louder than words...

  • Loved the Chrissie Hynde cover of this Persuaders classic, but Annie puts her own stamp on it beautifully

  • @rgbcrt this is the best cover i've heard of this classic ..Love Chrissie..she's great Hynde(one of my fave women in rock) ..the original version is beautiful but gosh Annie as u said..put her stamp on it..much more aggressive..spicy.. and sexy this cover..and i Love it!

  • "there you are in the hospital bandaged from foot to head, in a state of shock that much from being dead, you didn't think your woman could do something like that to you, you didn't think she'd got the nerve. accidents speak louder than words." I SO LOVE THIS SONG, I SING IT SO OFTEN TO MYSELF. ta carma for posting this :)

    xox

    rick

    ps: her eyes look green in this pic? wonder if they contacts or if her grey blue eyes are reflecting green?

  • Thank you, Rick and you are welcome. I sing this song to myself too. I love it. You are right, her eyes look green. Might be the make-up.

  • @CARMSFAV Let me act my age: I still have the Persuaders original on ATCO 6822, didn`t think there could be another version to touch it...This is totally different and because of that it`s unique, dark, scary and totally and utterly bloody brilliant!!! Thank you CARMSAV for showing an old git there`s still life in the music industry, you are a gem!!!

  • @01sinful Thank you. Let me act my age , I have the Persuaders original too...lol.....Annie seems to sing this song with an axe to grind...be careful of a woman scorned. .

  • @CARMSFAV Ahhhh!!! A kindred Soul!!! I always watch out for scorned women, they are usually the hardest to spot......Thanks again!!

  • @01sinful Yes they are, lol.....

  • @CARMSFAV hey how you doin`? Gonna make you jealous now, sorry.. Just booked tickets to see STEVIE WONDER @ Hyde Park London in June this year!!! OMG! The man, at last!!!! Seen Marvin, the Tops, the Tempts, Smokey... this is the icing on the cake!!! Will send you a full report be assured! lol xx

  • @01sinful Just fine and you? Ahhh, I am jealous. Stevie is the man, no doubt about it. Marvin and the Tops are great too, but loved Stevie the very first time I heard him sing, Michelle. I expect a full report...lol.. Thank you, my friend.

  • Rick, i think her eyes are green here cause there was some yellow lights when they took this picture of her. The blend of blue and yellow colors results in green color. As you can see, her skin is a little yellow too, that's why i'm sure about the yellow lights.

    Well, but green, blue or grey, her eyes always look so pretty, yes?

  • yes that would make perfect sense - i have green eyes and know thatz why they green - mixture of blue & "brown" produces green in eyes. the brown being a 'yellow.' i love talking colour - i live my life by colour as an artist - i'm a colourist. i've seen annie's eyes look green in the 1984 vid too so i thought there was something yellow/ish reflecting. her eyes are so light that they would reflect their surroundings. yup, you so right, whichever way her eyes - shez always beautiful :)

  • @warwickharris : i love the song and those lines above as well.

  • @warwickharris subtle difference in Lennox's version of those lyrics than Chrissie Hynde's (Pretenders) - check it out.

  • Thank You for posting this. I used to listen to this when I was working , doing these cabinets, at 5am. I'd crank it up so loud. Not one of the neighbors complained. Maybe the smell of the stain and lacquer made them back off. But I doubt it. All the neighbors were stoners.:) Gotta luv Pacific Grove Calif.

  • You are welcome, I listened to this song thousands of times when I first bought, Medusa. Changing the word actions to accidents, brilliant.
