Oh ANNIE. I am freaking balling to this song I think I have played it 6 times already and I have shared it with like 6 people on facebook. Its got me shaking like a leaf or a rattled bone. Wondering about peple who are going hungry and war all over. You got me wide awake. Yesterday I was having a rough day and I was thinking, there has to be some light to all my fighting against darkness. And I woke up to the gift of this. Thank you soooo much. sooo much!
That's what I'm saying! I flipped my f'ing lid when this first dropped. Here we are all these years later, and I'm still geeking over it. Peace & Love to you! 🙂
Hey there music, hope you’re doing well after two years. I absolutely fell in love with David’s “White Ladder” album. I had no idea he had done a duet with Annie L until this randomly came on My ol’ iPod and I recognized her voice.
What I love about this song is that while it seems obviously to be about the "demise of western society" because of a financial crisis, the lyrics are open enough to be applied to a relationship between two people. It's a very versatile song, and like a lot of his stuff could be interpreted many ways. That being said, He and Annie Lennox together is a match made in heaven. :)
The song is about the paradox activities in our world. We the people in our industrialized world have blindly bought into the concept that money and consumption is the dream and will give us the nourishment and happiness we need. It's become evident that we are astray from the source of true happiness and yet we still run blindly, FULL STEAM AHEAD -- Despite the conflicts we face with our fellow creatures and the planet itself. We all saw it coming and we still bought it.
Can't stop listening to this track two of my favourite Artists together it doesn't get any better than this classic I guess we should have seen it coming
Let us not forget the compassion with which this song was performed, something we all need to learn is that all great nations died because they lost the ability to act with compassion towards those in need ... Peace to David and Annie for this simple act of compassion..
I love how this song came to be. She came knocking on her old recording studio (house?) and turns out David had purchased it. They met, and we were gifted with this beauty.
Two of my very, very favorite artists. Classy and amazing as ever. Thank you for existing and being brave enough to share your gifts with this darkening world.
I am moved so much by this song, Annie Lennox has always been my idol and forever will be, I write music because of you Annie, the two of you together sound great, thank you for this beautiful music.xx
Everytime I am impressed of the voice of miss Lennox. And this combination with David Gray makes me silent and... hooked. Thanks for making all these beautiful music, both of you.
Brilliant song. I would really love to see an album with these two doing more of the same. Definately a number 1 in my book lets hope it gets there. What makes it even better is that even live they were exceptional a faultless performance on Graham Norton.
I first started hearing this on QRadio Birmingham England. Made me seek it out... its so damn addictiive. didnt even know Lennox was singin on it.. what a song...they sound so awesume together...the beat is sooooo different... Annie ur awesume.
These are great lyrics for a great song... and now a great video! Annie, you're still runing full steam ahead in my heart! David, I'm still only discovering your work, but you're great too!! Love ya!!
Heard this song tonight on Graham Norton show........ and i loved it straight away. Then again most of David Grays songs are Brilliant!! Hes got such an amazing voice... Love it. :)
We're talkin the best of the best here......theres not enough rating stars to touch it. 10* and thank you both for all your talents..........peace from Texas...
No one ever looks as good in a suit as Annie Lennox - wish she would have gone without the hat though because it covers her head and her beautiful face too much. GREAT song - perfectly matched voices and an interesting video. I really hope this is a HUGE hit. I think they both had fun working together and the chemistry shows both in the video and in the vocal performances. Two very genuine people which is refreshing these days.
@406donnac I came here today circuitously. My daughter died in April, and I think I know what you mean, how you feel. Sme days I can't move at all, but music such as this helps me through. I am so sorry that your daughter died, and relieved that we -- you and I and everyone who knows what this means -- are not alone.
Only wish ❤ they had a Collaborated more often but at least there's still magical track they certainly bring the best of each other... think not many either of these to great artists couldn't work well with to be honest... tho would love Gray and Dido together or Lennox and Nelly Furtado
Wow.. I love this song it cuts right through me! It's like my perfect duet two of my favourite artist ever singing together. For me, Annie Lennox is second to no one when it comes to female artist and David Gray is an amazing songwriter and performer.. I've seen him 3 times and he is amazing live!
this song is probably the best song in that way that she has a deep voice with a strong compation in her soul not only to prove that she is the best and a good singer(in a way she is) but she sings it and means it. i love the fact that the money made out of the song goes to good causes
I know that it was released just after Christmas but it would have been great if this could have been Christmas Number One. David Gray is such a talented songwriter.
You know you have made it when you manage to duet with Annie Lennox !!!
You know you've made it when you duet with David Gray!
Iliked you bouth@@samuelj.robinson783
@samuelj.robinson783True, but Annie already made it by the time David was shitting green 😂 what a remarkable song though!
You can see Annie is loving this song ,throwing herself into every line .
I have had a crush on Annie Lennox for 40 years, she is more amazing now than ever.
I love performers who sing with passion and conviction, and no one does that better than Annie Lennox and David Grey!
Oh ANNIE. I am freaking balling to this song I think I have played it 6 times already and I have shared it with like 6 people on facebook. Its got me shaking like a leaf or a rattled bone.

You feeling better yet?
@@FF04RDF I think I caused Covid after this post so I guess not
@@francescorengifo😂👏👏
That's what I'm saying! I flipped my f'ing lid when this first dropped. Here we are all these years later, and I'm still geeking over it. Peace & Love to you! 🙂
Good covid song❤
I've been a David Gray fan since I first heard his track "Babylon" over 10 years ago. I adore Annie Lennox.
Hey there music, hope you’re doing well after two years. I absolutely fell in love with David’s “White Ladder” album. I had no idea he had done a duet with Annie L until this randomly came on My ol’ iPod and I recognized her voice.
@@bugpal I cant believe i first came across him back in 2002, 20 years now, times flown by. Got his albums on a memory stick thats in my car.
What I love about this song is that while it seems obviously to be about the "demise of western society" because of a financial crisis, the lyrics are open enough to be applied to a relationship between two people.

Amazing collaboration they compliment each other perfectly.
This is one of the coolest songs I’ve heard in a long time! Annie Lennox is the goat!😊

Wow, never a truer word. 🙏
Beautifully said, sir!!! ❤
Annie lennox and david grey did it again a master piece...
I
Annie Lennox's dancing reminds me of my dad at weddings...
Then pick up a few tips, his time in the sun had the BEST music. Respect young ‘Un.
the spiritual significance of this incredibly beautiful song cannot be overestimated
Omg only just stumbled across this peace of artwork.
Words won't justify how amazing this was to witness.
Nothing makes me realize the passage of time more than learning that songs that are still fresh in my head are actually 10, 15, 20, 30 years old.
the spiritual significance of this incredibly beautiful song cannot be overestimated.
I'll never forget when I took photos of Annie Lennox in concert!
Musically and lyrically this song is brilliant
I love Annie Lennox, so I came here. Now, also a fan of David Grey 😮
Can't stop listening to this track two of my favourite Artists together it doesn't get any better than this classic I guess we should have seen it coming

One of the best collaborations ever two icons perfect song wish they word work together again
Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart sold their recording studio (called The Church) to David Gray. I believe this song was recorded at The Church.
How have I not heard this until today? WTF. Incredible talent between these 2.
YOU GOT THE RIGHT!!
She's got a beautiful voice and can sing anything.
What a Great Energy and Feelings!!! Thank YOU!!!!

Annie you are so dear to me as I have always enjoyed your uniquely humble and honest expression of life and the art of it all.
Well, people this is it. In 2009 we saw it coming, now is here. Thank you Annie, thank you David for helping so many of us wakeing up.
Two brilliant artists and what a performance. Brilliant
The most beautiful song ever!
beautiful
Heard this song tonight on Graham Norton show........ and i loved it straight away. Then again most of David Grays songs are Brilliant!! Hes got such an amazing voice... Love it. :)
This is a fantastic song, it's grown on me a lot - didn't really like it the first time, but David Gray is the one who makes it.
These voices were meant to be. Heaven xxx
Wow, they compliment each other so well!!
Loved it! Very good lyrics, and excellent performances from both Annie and David. Thank you!
It didn't for me at first but now I'm addicted. Keep coming back to it. It'll happen.
It's rare - that a song captivates me like that ! Great !!!
Amazing!
Annie still look amazing. Great talent. 😍
i am so glad that the two of them have got together my favourite artists and they look so good and natural x give us more
I have loved DG since 1984. I'm still in love with that soulful voice and amazing song writing. Yet again an amazing song! Keep it coming!
Awsome, the best Annie Lennox ever. David Gray is fabulous.

their voices go really well together, great collaboration :)
I love Annie--David Gray become famous with that one song--then all the others sounded same--this duet is very cool.
I just love this....
Respectfully disagree, in regards to your comment stating that all of Mr. Gray's songs sound the same.
William Sullivan He has a low vocal range. That’s the ONLY way I’d EVER describe him as ‘samey’
Gray could not have found a better person to be in this song. Annie is PERFECT for it!!
Just perfect these two are together. So gorgeouse and he song is breath taking!!
Absolutely love it thanks for sharing
this brings me to tears
fantastic song. Great to see Lenox back in the light. David Gray has to be one of the most underated talents out there these days IMO.
Only wish ❤ they had a Collaborated more often but at least there's still magical track they certainly bring the best of each other... think not many either of these to great artists couldn't work well with to be honest... tho would love Gray and Dido together or Lennox and Nelly Furtado
Good recommendation for me, had never heard it before, really enjoyable to watch too. Two extremely talented artists.
This blows me away! God I love her passion.
Great duet :-)
I love this! Great lyrics, Great voices, Great People. Great video quality.
Simply Lovely
Wow.. I love this song it cuts right through me! It's like my perfect duet two of my favourite artist ever singing together.

I know that it was released just after Christmas but it would have been great if this could have been Christmas Number One. David Gray is such a talented songwriter.
Pure genius whoever put these two together. Genius! Great music.
