New Annie Lennox Greatest Hits CD/DVD

The U.S. release of the new album "The Annie Lennox Collection" is scheduled for Feb. 17th, and it includes two new songs. One of the tracks is called Shining Light, and you can hear it now.

The new single (a cover song from the Irish band Ash) is pretty much her signature sound, and it almost seems like something released in the '90s, but I'm not knocking the song. It's a really good guitar-driven mid tempo track with rich, uplifting vocals and some great harmonies. Check it out for yourself:

Shining Light - Annie Lennox

Her official website has been updated with some nice graphics and content. The Flash-enhanced pages take a bit too long to load, but it's worth checking out if you are a die hard Annie fan.

One of the more interesting sections of the "Collection" site is the "Track by Track" blog, where she continues to post info about the making of each classic song.

Here is the track listing of the 14 chosen songs. The compilation will contain 2 discs -- the full 14-track CD plus a DVD of music videos.

2. Walking On Broken Glass

4. No More I Love Yous
