Review - :
Those expecting {$Annie Lennox} to come out full-guns-blazing for her solo debut, {^Diva}, with the high energy {\electro}-{\Europop}-meets-American- {\R&B} of her {$Eurythmics} work may be mildly disappointed. The enigmatic vocalist who made a career toying with different notions of gender plays on the concept of fame here -- {$Lennox} dresses up in the persona of a solitary {^Diva} trapped by counterfeit glory. The framework offers an effective stage for {$Lennox}'s husky voice, showcasing her as much more of a chanteuse than in the past. But the music is strangely muted and understated. In fact, the album almost works best as one integrated mood piece rather than a collection of individual songs. {$Lennox} succeeds in carving out a personality distinct from her {$Eurythmics} days with {^Diva}. [{^Diva} was also released with a bonus track.] ~ Roch Parisien, All Music Guide
