One of her best known songs apart from Eurythmics is Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves ... the song was a (the?) feminist anthem. Also Ms. Lennox was named to OBE by Queen Elizabeth for charity work and her activism in fighting AIDS. She is huge in the world of music! Wiki tells me she is on Rolling Stones "100 Greatest Female Singers" and that she has sold 80 million (80 million!!!) albums. It blows my mind to see she is not in the RRHoF, not The Eurythmics either. No More I Love You's ... sing it Annie.
I am certainly no feminist and not British, but I'd say this lady should get in, easy. Shouldn't she already be! Bloody well nominate her! lol

Sheesh. We just all witnessed Lennox blow away the entire Grammys-2015 at the age of 60!! C'mon people. Get her in the Hall of Fame, she is a white soul genius, and Dave Stewart was always a brilliant innovator-producer-guitarist-songwriter. Eurythmics without a doubt, and Annie 2x. Diva went Quad-Platinum. Bare was almost too brilliant for the commercial world. Go back to Savage, and revisit the raw, "I Need a Man"

Her solo work actually dates back to 1988.

Omg there shouldn’t even be a question about this. I agree with person who recalled her 2015 performance at the Grammys. The woman is amazing.

The Zombies, a one hit wonder is in. Annie should be in the Rock Hall!

The new women's movement at the Rock Hall will get her a second induction.
