"Listen," said Lennox, "Twerking is not feminism. Thats what I'm referring to. It's not -- it's not liberating, it's not empowering. It's a sexual thing that you're doing on a stage; it doesn't empower you. That's my feeling about it."

No, it enslaved men. Well, it freed Lazzy.
But you do not want to see him twerk.
To: Dilbert San Diego
Lefties just can’t seem to see that a lifestyle that follows God’s Laws
just coincidentally has fewer negative consequences.
It must just baffle them.

Her version of Bob Marleys “Waiting In Vain” is incredibly beautiful.

“Ms. Lennox used a mixture of androgynous style and overt feminine sexuality when it suited her. “
That she did but I sure don’t remember her grabbing her crotch, twerking, or just being plain out right vulgar. I would call her “different” but at least she was not gross.

That whole Mily thing with the tongue grosses me out as well.

Plus, Lennox can actually sing. There’s a difference between style on top of substance and style with no substance.
To: rjsimmon
That’s the best I’ve seen Annie look.

Ever seen “Bram Stoker’s Dracula?” Her “Love Song for a Vampire” during the ending credits was gorgeous...haunting.

Good for Annie.
She isn’t really my cup o’tea, but she does have an amazing voice.
“It Must Be An Angel” shows the strength of her pipes.
To: Dilbert San Diego
Agreed. And the flip side of abortion is that if the woman does choose to kill the baby, it was "her choice" to have the child and the man can consider himself no longer responsible.
The courts just haven't caught up yet on the issue of support. But it very well may...

I like her version of Neil Young’s “Don’t Let It Bring You Down”.

Madonna broke that ground a couple of years later.
To: rjsimmon
Annie Lennox, whatever one thinks of her, could sing better than any white woman in the past 100 years. Her range and control was remarkable. And I don’t even like her style. She had beautiful features, but cut and dyed her hair, for what reason, to acquire ugly?
