Everyone of a certain age has a copy of Annie Lennox's "Diva". We may not have played it since the Blair era, and it's probably in a box in the spare room, but we have it.

Why? In the song, Annie feels out where she is in life: meaning emerges through finding evidence and considering it. Won the #IvorNovelloAward for song of the year, and ensured #AnnieLennox was respected for solo work.
