1. Annie Lennox
I can't figure out if I thought she was sexy or not. Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Anyhow, favorite song? Well, I can hear the music in my head but I don't know its name. Argh! BTW, her first solo album was awesome.

2. "Don't ask
me why"

Don't Ask Me Why

Miracle of miracles
Look what the night dragged in -
It's a pocket full of misery
And trouble on the wind
You spoiled the best years
Of your life
You took them all in vain
Now you think that you're forgiven
But you can't be born again
And you say
Why?
You say why?
You say why?
Don't ask me why -
I don't love you anymore
I don't think I ever did
And if you ever had
Any kind of love for me
You kept it all so well hid...
Promises sweet promises
You kept them from your mind
Like all the lost forgotten things
You never seemed to find
Like all the disappointments
You displayed upon your shelf
Now you've got no-one to turn to
You've got no-one but yourself
And you say
Why?...

5. Love is a Stranger
Love is a stranger
In an open car
To tempt you in
And drive you far away

Love is a stranger
In an open car
To tempt you in
And drive you far away

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
It's an obsession

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
It's an obsession

Love is a danger
Of a different kind
To take you away
And leave you far behind

And love love love
Is a dangerous drug
You have to receive it
And you still can't
Get enough of the stuff

It's savage and it's cruel
And it shines like destruction
Comes in like the flood
And it seems like religion

It's noble and it's brutal
It distorts and deranges
And it wrenches you up
And you're left like a zombie

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
It's an obsession

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
It's an obsession

It's guilt edged
Glamorous and sleek by design
You know it's jealous by nature
False and unkind

It's hard and restrained
And it's totally cool
It touches and it teases
As you stumble in the debris

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
It's an obsession

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
It's an obsession

13. "Sex Crime" from the "1984" soundtrack.
The song didn't make it into the film itself (Eurythmics did the score), but it's a great song.

17. I like all their songs
From the 80s, my favorite would have to be "King and Queen of America".

I also really enjoy the "Peace" album from a few years ago.
