Annie's Heart an Original Song

This is an original song that I wrote with my friend Frank Berg a couple of years ago. It's got a kind of retro feel. I know the song pretty well although I forgot the lyrics and was reading from a sheet. The concept idea for the black background highlighted by my face singing was taken from a Glass Pear video. I like the starkness of the visual which I think matches the minimal vocal and just piano playing. This song also sounds good with a harmony added and I considered adding it myself, but in the end I thought the lone person in the dark concept would be shattered by the addition of another vocal or instrument. The song Annie's Heart was originally written with Annie Lennox in mind and fashioned in the style of a '70s song. I think I had been listening to the band BREAD. And was inspired by the melody "Lost and All Alone". I hope you enjoy.

Thank you for sharing who "annie" was - Lennox is one of my favourite artists of all time and it made the song more meaningful for me. Your voice is awesome, inspiring.. I can't believe you're working on your 1st album - I will get it.

@missladybug007 I love this song, but it's sitting on the bottom of the selection list right now. I don't think it's going to make the cut. :(
