Sinead O'Connor, Irish musician and abuse-victim, was so incensed by Benedict's fake empathy, she wrote a fiery article for the Washington Post where she said:

"Irish Catholics are in a dysfunctional relationship with an abusive organization. The pope must take responsibility for the actions of his subordinates. If Catholic priests are abusing children, it is Rome, not Dublin, that must answer for it with a full confession and a criminal investigation. Until it does, all good Catholics... should avoid Mass. In Ireland, it is time we separated our God from our religion, and our faith from its alleged leaders."

How about following this up with "Private Idaho" to keep the theme going?

Man, people really go to extremes over Sinead. What's the deal? Can't handle a chick who doesn't gasp and whine like a little crybaby, "think I wanna drive your Benz I don't, If I want a Rolls, I got my own..." Catchy but lame only goes so far.

Sinead's not my favorite, but she gets props from me for being her own person and for pushing the envelope in every category.

PS I met someone who rented a house to her once and evidently had to keep the deposit, as it took a professional crew 3 days to clean after she moved out.

I find this song simultaneously annoying and boring.

rgj talking bollocks there...classic(al)....

Leave superweh alone you ruffian...No need at all for your post......
This is New Age Carp...and sinead lost it big time a few years ago....
She used to be one of my all time favourite female vocalists but?...What went wrong?

She shaved her head; burnt a photo of the Pope and said 'Feck it.....'

She is so much better....

How about quitting preaching "new-age" crap Sinead?

Hey now, that particular crap is classical, not new age!

I was never much of a fan of Sinead in the past, but I am growing more and more fond of her music since hearing it on RP.

great stuff!

The squealy, giggling kid voice is more annoying than fingernails down a blackboard. MAKE IT STOP!

Are the vocals completely off-beat, or is it just me?

And when I say 'off-beat', I don't mean wacky and zany, I mean not following the same rhythm pattern as the drum track.

Excellent tune from a sadly underrated artist. How can anyone listen to this without shivers down their spine from those harmonies?

I'm not a Sinead fan, but often like her songs. With such a great voice, it would take an extremely weak song to make the whole effect poor. Unfortunately, this is that song... Very dull (IMHO).

Sinead is a good composer, most of the time.

This new-age, sappy crap is near the bottom of her pile.
