O is for....
Last year when posting about her latest album I said, "There's a terrible tendency when it comes to Sinéad O’Connor
to write her off with one stroke of the pen because she's a woman who
is complicated and obviously has issues and seems to carry so much
baggage that surely she can't be up to much good. We all have baggage
though, and unlike Sinéad O’Connor, our baggage seems to stay private.
But in writing her off so easily you actually miss out on so much.
There's a depth to her writing that is quite uncommon among female
artists (Natalie Merchant for me is probably the only other one who manages to capture such emotion and lay it bare in a song)" and I still stand by those words today.
