Annie Lennox - Waiting in Vain

[lavvy2585]

I heard this cover for the first time and I just love annie Lenox she covers well.

[RIPYpsilon]

BOB MARLEY IS A LEGEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Iremember35]

Si j'ai bien compris elle attend l'amour de sa vie, les années les saisons passent tandis qu' elle repasse et repasse et j'en passe ... après avoir regardé cette vidéo qui va du comique au pathétique voilà donc la solution pour avoir un intérieur nickel !!! :-))

[Longnez]

@Iremember35

Je t'aurais conseillé de seulement écouter sa belle voix, cette superbe musique, ce bel hommage rendu à Bob et d'ignorer seulement cette vidéo inappropriée et à contretemps, mais tant pis, c'est fait, à croire qu'une femme toute seule ne peut pas tout réussir ;-)

[humor78]

My favorite cover from Medusa after Take Me to the River

[LagiNaLangAko23]

somewhat weird video. great song nonetheless. :)

[lavvy2585]

@LagiNaLangAko23 LOL still trying to figure out why she is walking around like that but if you watch other of her videos are always elaborate and well done. Very talented woman

[Thievery22]

Love this cover!!!

[Pinkwhises]

I LOVE THIS SONG. =)

[MustaDujak]

the guitar in the back gives it such a romantic vibe... This song is for listening with your eyes closed, slowly swinging your head from side to side. =)

[jojopuppyfish]

What version is this?

[Krintok]

@jojopuppyfish Annie Lennox's version, It's a cover of Bob Marley's original.

[jojopuppyfish]

@Krintok I know that. This is not the same version as on the cd

[SandoTrini]

I prefer Bob marley, no offence but he sings it with more passion.

[kevinc62]

People don't get sarcasm nowdays!! She's minnie, who is always the girl next to the big famous mouse, she's no one, she's just waiting. The video is very sarcastic and great. That's what i've always loved about Annie, she's got a big pair. She's bold and funny, with a great voice. Much better that the over rated crap nowdays

[joshthemaster2]

@kevinc62 no, the ears are to symbolize childhood and "first love" theme. The cleaning and everything is to show "time" she is symbolic and artist not sarcastic.

[marajake]

By far, my favorite AD song. Sorry Bob Marley- this is just beautiful.

[MrAhejil]

Bob Marley's cover is better..but this is one is good

[SandoTrini]

@MrAhejil This is bob marley's song. This is her cover actually.

[TheViolentBuddha]

this is my favorite Bob Marley song, and this is now my favorite remake of this song! Subbed.

[qarahiyo]

Love you Annie - the 1st time i saw Lennox was on the Album Chart Show in '96 and made me discover Bob Marley.

[MAETHCOMBAT]

she REALLY loves mickey mouse

[maxxxem1]

we all love you annie for ever ...PEACE IN THE > CREATOR

[tami114]

SUCH A GREAT ARTIST. ANNIE LENNOX U R MY IDOL!

[chat099]

Before Lady Gaga, there was the one true artist AND diva, Annie Lennox.

[recalcitrist1]

I've always wanted to make love to a Mouseketeer.

Btw, did you hear about the two corpuscles who met in vein?

[jamooo10]

@fromoldschoola

no she isnt .

[LagiNaLangAko23]

i love annie! and i love that mickey cap she's wearing :)

[grayngreen8]

way before madonna, gaga and all the otha weird ones! ANNIE IS A PIONEER

[stormclyde]

So beautiful

<3 Annie

[jbowmnt]

I first paid attention to this song when an old friend and I were together. I hadn't seen her in over twenty years and we sat and talked for hours over coffee. When she gave me a lift home, this song came on and I fell in love with her.

[joefalchetto]

@jbowmnt Beautiful!

[farrahchanel]

LOVE LOVE LOVE ANNIE

[supermaxim109]

"Coz I know how to do my thing..." You certainly do.

[PhantomOfTheMall]

Another good song....ruined by the video.....such a shame....

[THETribalDancer]

I never heard this version, or saw this video. Weird...

[MrSasysally]

Love Annie ! ck out this new girl Mariah Scimone... so unique like Annie :)

[729debra]

I Enjoy Bob's version But Annie adds her Majic to EVERYTHING!

I Love this song- Thank U for Loading it *Destro :)

She would make Mr. Marley Smile! and make Minnie a bit Jealous I Think!

LOL!

Debra Jean

[NoizyWun]

i hope everyone in the world knows that this is just a cover song.

waiting in vain is by the one and only Bob marley.

still, its an entertaining rendition.

[Krintok]

@evilgenius151 That's a bit harsh, don't you think? I personally think she made It better.

But I guess that Is just me, because I love her. Please give her music a chance.

[evilgenius151]

@Krintok I mean how could you? The only possible explanation for you or anyone else liking this crap better than rob's original version, is that you/they never liked reggae in the first place. In your case, you loved her before you heard this. But hey, you like what you like.

also, you cant tell me shes not ugly lol

[Krintok]

@evilgenius151 No sir, she's absolutely GORGEOUS!

[mmedefarge]

@evilgenius151 It may not be reggae enough for you but it's become a classic. Lots of different people are going to sing it all different ways. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery & it's a tribute to Marley that it struck a cord with so many people. Anyway, this is the white chick version & I can relate. Lennox will make herself look all kinds of ways to get across the point of a song. She's actually quite beautiful but doesn't let it get in the way of the point of the music.

[TheChompy123]

This is GOOD music! love both versions :)

[sgfalcon]

amo esta canción....



[Forestman30bgd]

nice shoes at the end of video , very sexy

[dalilulis]

I love her....what a great singer!!!

[caminanteplanetario]

What a great song, God: Thanks for giving us Bob Marley....

[sassyladyu]

She is awesome!!!! I love her voice......

[Joeyarhino1]

how could mickey mouse treat his woman this way?

[HellodaHell]

Geez lady, stop the dusting. Instead, run over to Sherwin Williams and pick up a couple gallons of paint & freshen up those dingy walls. That should kill some time. Hint: stay away from Brown.

[feelzthelove]

Notice that bird cage. Winter comes and the bird is still outside. While she's waiting in vain for love, the bird is waiting too. Didn't get its cage cleaned all the while she's dusting and cleaning the whole house. What kind of crap is that?

[hahnziedoodle1]

I LOVE this version. The video is brilliant...soooo well done. Annie breaks your heart waiting for that man to come. I too have waited in vain and done ANYTHING (including dusting,ironing,etc.)to pass the time. This video makes me cry everytime.

ANNIE ROCKS.

[TheBri33]

I'm sorry, but nothing touches the original. And I enjoy Annie Lennox, but no one compares to Bob on this one.

[EnhancementSmoker]

first time ive heard her version...

i usually like her for her song writing...

but shes just prolific in general...

[oganga111]

i really like the song but this video not is even much

[justinjt1000]

i just love her!!!!! as kooky as she is!!!

[Albedo64]

I loooooove Annie Lennox. This is a great version o this song.

If you guys get the chance check out my version of this song my youtube page. (John Splithoff, Waiting in Vain) It's a ballad arrangement of it. Lemme know what you think!

[dcboi202]

WTF?

[jtobin13]

loved this sonsince my house in ct built!!

[MrWolf1988]

Wot I Think Iz That They Wer Short Ov Money On Ther Budget 4Tha Vid So They Bought 22nd Hand Tabletennis Batz, Sprayed They Black And Cut Tha Handlez Off!!!

4Real..Thtz Hardcore...hahahaa...

[cherrynutz]

Weird mick mouse ears. Annie is a very sexy lady and has one of the best voices I have ever heard.

[rhollusstar]

I love Annie, but I never thought she'd flip out and think she was Minnie Mouse.

[bigheadrascal]

this is just as good as the Marley version.

[SuddenSparkles]

those ears are so weird... I love the song though, simply beautiful.

[serfyi]

i have spotted the hidden mickey! yay!

[wookie808]

only thing that throws me off is the mickey mouse ears

everything else is beautiful

[MrNutinfancy]

Great vid TY I loved it.

[wewoninrotterdam]

Absolutely brilliant cover. Better than the original.

[MrDhigoy]

hey, Lady gaga looks like this in the music video of paparazzi.........

[imogenheap12345]

hahha i kno rite??? at first i wuz lyk... omg she copied lady gaga!!!!!

[xflipsideonfirex]

are you serious?

this came out so much earlier than lady gaga.....

[imogenheap12345]

well SORRY!!!!!

[amatoanima]

This came out WAY before Lady Gaga's video. Whom I also like.

Anyway---Gotta do a little research before you comment.

[xflipsideonfirex]

exactly. gaga copied her

[amatoanima]

"Annie Lennox you've just been dubbed a Diva, an amazing chanteuse...what are you going to do next?"

"I'm waiting to go to Disneyland."

Love Annie...love this song

[bluebohemia]

I get it! ... but not the mickey mouse ears, can someone explain those?

[Chance99able]

This is just a killer tune.....I love this song. I don't want to wait in vain for your love.....that's just great songwriting through and through.....Enjoy Chance xx

[poppylights]

Amazing video - absolute artistry! Annie is always totally left-field.

[beyourselftonight]

Seriously, you don't get the irony she's going for here? Wow. She's playing the classical weak woman waiting to be loved.

[tubeornotubetube]

OH! I wondered why this was so strange - now it makes sense. That is so sad, so many "waiting" women out there

[mystro1971]

luv this version...even though bobs marleys was da shit. annie did it justice

[harlem347]

bob wrote/sang first

[xxmarleykidxx]

who wrote this song first bob marley or Annie Lennox

[trickmastermonkey]

Serendipity soundtrack <3

[Jerv23325]

For the people who don't get it, she is playing the part of a "mousey" girl who is "waiting in vain".

Ha. Get it?

[beyourselftonight]

AMAZING VIDEO!!!

[deepintoblues]

that is cool. strange as hell, but definitely cool.

[eddtoro]

dang what a great song. she does it well, so well I don't remember the original

[THEGRINNINGDOGGY]

I don't get the reason why she picked this outfit out for such a good song. This is not a light hearted piece of fluff song. And she does a great job with it- but the Disney hat just does not cut it.

[ASCIISkull]

Strong symbolism.

[chinudas0583]

wtf!!!!

[tusepagliacco]

Lol! This lady's got balls LOL!

[sixty9fbody]

why is she wearing Mickey ears? lol

[backto1960]

I like the song and her voice...but the video is tacky.

[gwenpookie]

this is her version, but Bob Marley owns the right. do that help

[macklanders]

Bob Marley

[aaron5000]

srsly?

[azuregem07]

why in world is she wearin mickey mouse ears!!

[Sidenote138]

awful rendition

[IndyCarmadman]

each to their own!

[Woodseone]

ha!

You wish someone cared about you like this.

[Gairm]

Annie Lennox has always been photogenic. Such a great voice, and such courageous choices in music. Brava!

[singinglawnchair]

An awesome song made even BETTER. I love her outfit in this video. =)

[maxxxem1]

i love you annie!!!! youare under god the creators grace!!!!! :)

[Wzershart]

Truely Annie Lennox, no shame at all.

A real dedication.

Jeez, I love her.

[gregorymuncey]

I have been captivated since the 80's!  3 Cheers for your beautiful lyrics, voice, originality. Annie, after 30 years, you still are fresh and new to me everytime I hear you!

[Alphadacka]

This is one of my favorite songs, and I think Annie does a hell of a good job on it. Let me know who else did a good of a job, because I would like to hear it. Thanks.

[katybblue]

Annie-you are truly one of a kind! Love you!

[southwind025]

Thank you Annie...

[DandamCamelo]

ADOOORO essa musica!

[bouncer7]

I like this song, but I feel she messed up the "I don't wanna I don't wanna I don't wanna" part.

[katybblue]

Bob Marley sang it that way in the original version so she kind of had to sing it that way.

[otogdeanwiguitar]

Minnie Mouse Looks Great,Cool Video.Great Song.550 Stars.

[firefighterps2]

I sure wish she was singing this to me!

[nacolhead]

marley's better but she made him proud and represented him & and his words of love to those who aren't familiar with all of his songs...heard this first time from the movie "serendipity" good version

[elvis3700]

Great video

[Lsown]

love love love this song!

[downtownpaul]

I love her!!!

[jojesm34]

What a wonderful video, and song. If you don't like Annie, then you have poor taste. simple as that.

she is a true "Diva"

[flamedub]

wonderful :)

a beautiful cover.

[LilRasta85]

this one scares me......

[jonnj1975]

Annie Lennox is genius...and her videos are a feast for the eyes and the imagination!

[JirafitaLove]

Thbis video is so interesting to me! I like this video :D and always be like this!

[570395521]

I ,ve always thought this lady was good but WOW WOW!!!!

[DarknetAdmin]

see! shes the most besutiful woman in the world even in a mickey mouse hat.

[roomundastood2]

She's done Bob Marley proud x

[dramaaintacrime]

love it fuk wat u all think its great this song can be done by anyone and still be amazing the lyrics are great plus its the serendipity version need i say more!!!!

[mermaidKit]

RUNN! ITS MICKEY MOUSE!!!

[nitpicker12]

this song is IN THE MOVIE "IN THE CUT" WITH MEG RYAN. LOVE IT, DID ANYONE NOTICE THAT??? When she's with jennifer jason leigh and they look tired, bored, careless, etc.

[sjfc291]

Not as good as the accoustic version?but still brill.

[kausra53]

Annie continues to be ground breaking, her words are magical, her voice tells two stories at once, one you hear, one you feel

[enigma53545]

Most of Ms. Lennox's songs are emotionally intense. If all videos reflected this mood, they would all look pretty much the same. I have had a pre-conceived 'picture' of the song well before seeing this video (as we all did) . I like that she took on a fresh and rather unexpected approach that presents a new perspctive to the song reflecting Annie's adventurous creativisim and humor while at the same time not compomising the 'tone' and 'hue' of the song. Variation is what keeps an artist fresh.

[Stinakat]

actually...come to think of, i think it is a parody...if u think about it, there is a totally different feel having these lyrics coming from a woman...

[Stinakat]

this video is weird...it removes the emotion from the song...makes it seem like some sort of parody...

[mroh2u]

Nothing less than truely remarkable!--How can you not feel this one!!?!--Don't beat me for this but..I' giving it all to Annie on this one.---(minus the hard to watch vedio; what a damn bummer!)

[efeks]

Bob's version is better there is no version with out Bob. The very soul of the words is better expressed through Marley listen to when he say Winter is here and Im still wating there haer." The way he stress his words. I dont understand how people think this version is as good. Its not bad but you cant even compare it to Marley.

[alansexualboy007]

GREAT SONG

[feelzthelove]

I luv dis vyd. Wundiful tu wats dis purson syng dis sawng.

[danskheste]

They are both great. Completely different. But great. Don't compare.

[yieldyieldyield]

I remember this song played on the Friends episode when Rachel and Ross first got together.

[kalokagathon]

yes the original is better but this is awesome!!!!

[scobratec]

This is a nice take on the masterful original by birthday boy Bob (2-6-1945). I just can never consider this version better than the original, it would seem almost blashphemous to do so.

[bapermo]

I like it very much, of course the original version is the one, but, I like this annie version so badly, it's inspiring...Annie, you are a magician, the video is a master piece.

[Charmedone9805]

she knows how to do a good cover song most singers can't do it as good as she can

[chiuyenz]

I like the music but not so much her singing... I like Bob's better mainly because there's more feelings involve - yearning, sorrow

this video creeps me out....  :(

[Shenorai]

Soooo you find Annie Lennox dressed as Minnie Mouse creepy? :P

[ahmetsb]

Brillient cover of this fantastic hit.

[lovingthis07]

She nailed it, and I'd dare say better than Mr. Marley sorry folks but it is. Give credit where it is due.

[shamat001]

sorry, man I can't agree with you on that I admit she did do an excellent job on the song. But much props goes to the originator Bob marley. :(

[talili87]

I don't agree at all. she drained it of all feeling.. uh uh.

[ScottieDM]

Hmmm. Well, Bob Marley seems to have several versions. Mostly it seems as if he's mixed up the lyrics, sung them in different languages, or started with a chorus rather than the first verse.

Other than that, same song.

[mystro1971]

her version sounds good still...

[vahustler777]

so this is the REAL LYRICS to bob's song right? there's another video called "waiting in vain" with lyrics that start off like "i'm a psychiatrist. i'm a doctor" i'm not sure what song that is

[islamacros]

Obviously Bob Marley version is better but this is an awesome cover!! I like it

[lubuhaha]

she's with the mickey mouse club!!!!

lol.looks like she's missing something?

[lafresa2006]

LAER si ees uoy t'nac uoy 4 emit efil a gnitiaw neebI

[lafresa2006]

SHE IS JUST BEYOND FANTASTIC!!!

[tcdude001]

thats what im talkin bout willis

[littlenige]

I've never heard such a different version of any cover version of any song. Works wonderfully well in it's own right. Some out there would never believe that it was originally a reggae classic! I adore this version.

[maxxxem1]

I love her ears / she's cool

[mystro1971]

I love this song...i watched the ending of changing lanes and been hooked ever since and i usually listen to rap and r&b and 80s retro

[zamboangaVillain]

i like this song on changing lanes...it fits the ending...nice everyone should see it

[utookmynameufuck]

I like it and of coarse the original is better but i like it.

[Jagger656]

waiting makes me consider even more!

[danitykanevideovault]

from what Year this video came out?

[Sarlota]

1995

[hollybeee00]

to a T

[mystro1971]

ending credits of the movie changing lanes??with ben affleck and samuel jackson

[Kenya003]

ANNIE LENNOX is THE GREATEST INNOVATOR! She helps me to appreciate artist who take pride in what they do. LUV U ANNIE

[lespaul260]

Nice Ears...

[animanera69]

i like annie's rendition of the song... the video however is quite...out of this world!

[howard029]

disney mickey mouse.. i guess is the theme xD

[Dustylove]

Minnie Mouse, its a girl :P

[howard029]

xD lol if theres no mickey mouse there is no minnie mouse lol..

[Dustylove]

Annie mouse?

[martinspitzer07]

Great song

[xuxucalle]

This song let a complity hapyness... i loved this song!!!

[Alphadacka]

This is one of my favorite songs and Annie does a great job of it. She sure can sing.
