There are times I have trouble deciding between Eddi and Annie Lennox as to which of them is my favourite Scottish “chanteuse”, that is when it is time to dig out Eddi’s 1992 album Mirmama.
She does an amazing cover version of Dolphins (coincidentally one of my favourite songs) on this and after listening again there are no doubts.
You rule the roost Eddi, accept no substitutes. Enjoy.
Oh, and she is red haired as well!

I really liked her voice. It has more passion to it than Annie Lennox. Sometimes it is best to have a voice that does not sound trained (even if it is trained) than to have the very trained sound like Lennox.
Pretty song.
Yes, real passion and done in a Scottish accent!
She looks a little like Meryl Streep. :)
She is tremendously talented. I love that venue she's playing in, too - very atmospheric
