Annie Lennox and David Bowie duetting on "Under Pressure" at the Freddie Mercury Memorial Concert in 1992.
(I was introduced to the real Freddie by his pal Jim Hutton, who I used to know in clubland, at Heaven nightclub, must have been early 1985 - but was too bombed to realise who he was, so we just said "Hi Freddie" and continued dancing...).
I saw that Freddie Memorial Concert at the time, but have just had to order the dvd. Annie's new album NOSTALGIA will be playing today ...
