Legendary singer Annie Lennox sat down with HX's Trenton Straube for a little pre-album release heart-to-heart. Before the girls ended their chat, Trent had one last, pressing question:

You know I adore Annie, but I thought this was a little off-putting. After all, this comes from a woman who catapulted the whole gender identity issue into the mainstream and has undergone a series of personality changes with each subsequent album release. Vacuous indeed, but that's what we love about you! When I was a kid my mom used to beat down my door while I blasted my stereo to the Pretenders and Eurythmics yelling "turn that shit down" all the while I was happily bouncing around my room like a wild child. I'm sure she thought I was on drugs. Frankly, you don't need to be on anything to enjoy your favorite artist on the dancefloor. Dance remixes are not void of intelligence or expression. Instead, think of them as an extension of enjoying an artist's work you want to dance to in the clubs. Maybe it's the age factor that prevents her from understanding the value of her work remixed for the same audience and extends itself to reach even more. There is a definite value that even her label boss and friend Clive Davis understood. It's a shame she can't see the magic in this artistry.

TS: One last subject: dance mixes. Your music has always been a staple on the dance floor. And you have remixes already slated for the single "Sing." You said you collaborate with art directors. Do you also work with the DJs and producers on the remixes?

AL: I'm going to be brutally honest here. I find a lot of it totally vacuous. People say you've got to have taken a lot of drugs before you "get it." I'm pretty sure that you have to take a lot of drugs. What kind of drugs are you gay guys taking? Would you like that list alphabetically or in order of appearance?

Oh well. Annie, we love you anyway!
