She introduced R&amp;B to New Wave with Eurythmics, and in her solo career, she invented a sort of New Age soul, based around shimmering synths, horn blasts and, most important, layer upon layer of that voice. \"Annie is amazingly versatile,\" says Thomas. \"She can sound like a beautiful angel \u2014 or she can make it sound like she's gargling glass. A great singer is somebody who makes you believe what they're saying, and you always believe Annie.\" \n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
