I covered the glittering ASCAP Awards and photographed Annie Lennox with her award. She used this picture on her Facebook page. I am always keen to see how many likes I get with all my posts and get excited if my popularity count makes it into double figures. This picture on Annie’s page is currently at 7,192 likes… Here’s her uplifting words she said at the podium upon receiving the ASCAP Award for Sweet Dreams

“..Almost thirty years after it’s release, and still going strong! I was on the verge of giving up and heading back to Scotland on the day that we wrote and recorded it… Dave and I had released four albums and we seemed to have reached an impasse. The line “Sweet Dreams Are Made of This” was a sardonic swipe at my miserable countenance of our predicament. It just goes to show that you never know what’s just around the corner… Your biggest disappointment might become your greatest treasure in the end.”
