Annie Lennox - Why (Live 1992)

[@Iwalkalonebegood]

After 10 years of marriage,3 kids, loved my wife, she came home and said she made a mistake. And this song hit so hard. I would of stayed but right then I lost my brother,dad and best friend to death.I bought a Harley started drinking jd and disappeared into the sins of the night. I survived, been sober 16 years now. This song just hit me again. I will be ok this time,I hope

[@dCaddyshk]

Hang in Brother.

[@diannaslonecker1756]

Love you!

It will be ok… then it gets even better ✨

[@MJWVI]

You’ll be fine dude. You will be fine.

[@goldenautumn3073]

I feel your pain and for the time you've had to endure it. This song brings it out in me still, many years later, after I had 12 years in the closest trust and relationship with someone, only to have him tell me he had suddenly had some sort of 'realisation', and now believed he'd never loved me. The confusion was immense, and the pain unbelievable. There's no instant cure, and it's a long road of regrets, realisation, but gradual acceptance and growth eventually comes through - hopefully making us into more calm and mature individuals, with the bitterness and rejection gradually disappearing. I don't think we ever really know another person, no matter how close we get to them. Thankfully I had my Protestant Christian faith to help me through it. Life is never the same, but it still can be rich and rewarding, and peaceful. I hope you are finding that peace and the strength to help you get through your losses - which far exceeded mine - you had such a lot of loss to get through. However, I want to assure you, God does love you and a sincere, personal prayer for His help will definitely bring things to you to ease it all and which you may not even suspect could happen. You only need faith the size of a mustard seed - believe He will answer - maybe not immediately, but He WILL answer! I'll be praying for you also.

I'm blown away by this. It must be a very difficult song to sing, let alone sing live. When I was young I took these songs for granted. This is. Annie Lennox is a magnificent artist.

How lucky am I to have lived at the same time of this fabulous human. Annie has gone from strength to strength as we have all grown older and yes the 80’s were fabulous for independent artist and labels.

To me, this is the #1 SNL musical performance of all time. Her voice, her subtle movements and gestures- impeccable.

I have loved this song for years. There's so much passion and pain in the song and it makes the listener relate to, and feel their own heartache. Sometimes when I listen to it, tears fill my eyes. It's very moving and Annie sings it with such conviction and sincerity. Great song and great live performance.
