This is actually a better version than Neil Young's original. Sometimes it happens like that eg UB40's 'Red red wine' where a cover is better than the original.
I honestly didn't know it was a cover. Will have to listen to original. But annie lennox singing it is amazing it is such a beautiful, emotional, brilliant song. Annie lennox is an absloute star. I love her music. Heard this in American beauty and i was like this song is amazing I have to download it.
@axedecapitation next time just type in "American Beauty Soundtrack" on Google and you won't have to spend an hour. Remember kids.... GOOGLE is your friend.
Gorgeous, majestic, powerful. When I first heard this song in "American Beauty", I went out in search of the CD. During the first play, I was almost brought to tears, so moved I was. This is why I so love music.
Oh now I know why
how I
came to love her
Oh just a too old fan
Me loving Neil, Annie
and so many humans
who would hear me play
sing Don't forget Fred Neil

I don't think it is better, just more enhanced. His version was more raw and powerful. However both are great!!

This has been flagged as spam show
excuse me but this doesn't capture the essence of the original, i don't doubt her talent but there are disturbing things about this cover:
it's supposed to be a simple but effective arrangement, what's with the string section over the top bullshit?
the rest of the instruments sound like a high school Yamaha keyboard arrangement
why is she singing like she just got raped by a hippo
it's not just a matter of taste i am analyzing this in the most objective way possible

I agree
this is waaaaaaaaay better than Neil Young's version
Annie's silky vocals are a better fit for this particular song

this disc from 1995?
just heard this track for the first time yesterday quite by chance
honestly dont think ive ever been more blown away by any other song
liked eurhythmics stuff ok but more b/c of dave stewart
i guess this comment is just a confessional of sorts for being
so out of touch with beauty - i mean having missed the opportunity
to have heard it so much sooner
no joke i think it may have altered my life had i
t/y for the tube
peace

I really like this whole album, and this cover made me re-think my dislike of Neil Young, big time.
