You are a Shining Light

I woke up to this song as it was played on BBC2 Radio. With the repeating and straight forward statement "You are a Shining Light" the song seems to tell us to never lose hope/ belief in someone special, or it is simply a confession of love. Or maybe this song is about Jesus? I cannot really tell, but what I know is that I am in love with the melody line, and as usual Annie Lennox has an amazing voice!
However, it turned out that the song actually is by Ash. Both versions couldn't be more different, and like with Snow Patrol's Run and Leona Lewis' cover version of it, I cannot pick a favourite version of 'Shining Light'. And as for the videos, yeah Annie's video is funny, but not very original. And yes, under water music videos have been there en masse, but still I like Ash's video, too. And it fits the more rocky theme of his version:



Enjoy!
