I am really impresed with her voice!! My god the way she plays with the notes is remarkable!! Her vocal range isabsolutely fantastic, though I wonder, what is the category for this kind of voice?? is it soprano or contralto??
This song interprets to me a battle with depression and abuse, and the struggle to find Jesus. That is raw emotion from the depths of ones soul. Annie Lennox is one of the all time greats! Lyricist and Vocalist.
That's what is great about music, everyone can have their own interpretation of it.
Annie Lennox said in an interview "The title 'dark road' is a metaphor for life's journey. All of us are born with the knowledge that we're going to die at some point, so life is the experience that we have in between those two point."

Actually, I have 3 degrees in Music, She's flat, she's out of tune all over the place. It just hurts my ears. Her glorious voice is gone. She was semi-retired from 1996-1999... and had many years away from music since then. This is godawful... practically unlistenable. I'm going to listen to,' Savage' now. God damn awful. Poor Annie.. time for retire and go save Africa.
3 degrees in music and you still cant spot a fantastic song, the world is full of music thats not pitch perfect, Perhaps you should try another career, Dhead
Soulima, may I ask where the HECK did you get your music degrees from, a cereal box? Are you sure you are not just partially deaf? I do not think you need 3 degrees in music to be able to tell flat or out of tune and she is neither; BTW, are you a singer? The ranges you hear in the song are called EMOTION, not out of tune. BTW- that is also sad that you would minimize all of the great charity work she does for Africa by making such a comment. Hummm...maybe it's your time to retire...
@soulima I dont think shes out of tune or flat I think you're confusing some emotional interpretation i.e. her broken voice etc for a performance any less that brilliant which this isn't, but each to their own (and why 3 music degrees thats just try hard)
I truely LOVE this song, I feel it is so under rated, Annie has a truely amazing range, and she is truely not noticed for her amazing talent all the time
SOME flat notes. Not MOST OF THE TIME. Besides, it's not all about pitch. There is something known as a performance you know. Unlike people like Miley who run around the stage like retards and call it performing. This performance truly shows what a moving performance should be like.
Listen to her new LP, see her live and then do what you seem to be musically comfortable with...judging others with no real ability or insight (or ears). I'm still waiting for something, anything from you that could even be mentioned with the weakest Annie or Eurythmics vocal track. You are wrong...NOT FLAT. You could not possibly do with any number of songs what Annie is capable of doing with one note. NOT FLAT. Really, you're a little wanker. And you are SOOO clever.
trust me when you are live in the same space with her singing you will be having palpations--she sings live raw--no gimics or canned music-video recordings of her live have never quite captured how awesome she is--people in the biz REVERE her and its not all for naught trust me!
What a bitter, twisted individual you are! Don't you have a singing lesson to get to? Either that, or you're tone deaf and need to have your hearing tested by an audiologist! Annie's vocals are second to none! It's an emotional song, hence the occasional rawness to her voice! It conveys the message better and makes the sentiment of the song more believable! Had it been too polished, you'd have criticised it for lacking in emotion! What a troglodite you are!
Annie Lennox goes back a long way but she deserves the right to be a diva. If i could sing half as well as her in my lifetime i would be more than proud.
the best singer songwriter in the business.. it doesnt et much better when it comes to melodies and harmonies, she is the best ever, forget celine dion.. this is what its about!!
too right you do!...and I compleatly agree with your tastes in music...however, I dont agree with your username- "unfortunate"....my friend, you LIVE in the Virgin Islands!!!....what is "unfortunate" about you?
I have so much respect for this wonderful woman. She's an icon. Great song. There's a new album out which I'm going to buy tomorrow. Heard there's a song on it with 20 female-singers on it, such as Madonna and Christina Aquilera??? I'm sooooooooooooo excited!!!
I love Annie Lennox... Great Charisma and personnality but I have to say that her vocal performance is not so great on this post and she is "off key" at times but still a great performer
Her voice is so infectious.

@quim3071 it is contralto but she has a 4 octave vocal range so she can really hit high notes very easily.

A much better use of backing vocalists here.
The backing vocalists on the "Peace" tour were too loud and drowned Annie out. I like backing singers but I want to hear Annie.
Hope the backing vocalists on the new tour are as subtle as this. Great performance !
