From last night's AMAs...

Annie Lennox wowed audience at the American Music Awards with an emotionally-charged performance - just three months after undergoing successful spinal surgery.

The former Eurythmics singer was ordered to endure six months of physiotherapy before doctors expected her to walk properly again - after determining she was suffering from an impinged nerve in August (08).

Lennox's contributions to music were marked before her rousing performance on Sunday (23Nov08) - when she was presented the Award of Merit at the 36th Annual AMAs in Los Angeles - lifting the star-studded audience to their feet.

If Annie Lennox doesn't prove that you just get better and better, I don't know who does.
