Little Bird (Annie Lennox song)

"Little Bird"
Song

"Little Bird" is a song by the Scottish singer Annie Lennox, and was released as a single in 1993. Taken from her debut solo album, Diva (1992), it was released as a double A-side with "Love Song for a Vampire" (which appeared on the soundtrack for the Francis Ford Coppola film Bram Stoker's Dracula). The single peaked at no.3 in the UK.

The music video features several Lennox lookalikes dressed as the many different personas that Lennox has used in her videos (both solo and as part of Eurythmics) over the past decade as they perform with Lennox herself in a Cabaret-esque setting. Lennox was in late stages of pregnancy with her second daughter Tali during the filming of the video.
