Track : JENNIFER
(From Album 'Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This')

It's hard to imagine who Jennifer actually is, but Annie reminds us constantly of her appearance with lyrics that hardly change throughout the track. It's as if she's a lost parent/friend or guardian who is recounting the features of a lost loved one.

The accompanying sounds are quite sinister and disturbing as Annie mutters 'Jennifer with your orange hair / green eyes / dress of deepest purple' before asking, 'Where are you tonight?'. The final lines reveal that she is probably dead as Annie reveals that (Jennifer) is 'Underneath the water/underneath the water' and the likely conclusion is that she has drowned.
