BIOGRAPHY:
Sinéad O' Connor was born on December 8, 1966 in Dublin
in Ireland. It is interested only tardily in the music and decides
to become singer while falling at 17 years under the charm from
Aretha Franklin.
It is in 1988 that she writes and leaves its first album "The
Lion and the Cobra", playing on the provoc' the young woman
is pointed out more and more by texts with the revolted words,
she denounces the hypocrisy of the world. Disavowing any religion,
it tears the photograph of the Pope at the time of a televisual
appearance and refuses to sing the American national anthem
lasting one in its concerts. Its shaven physique of rock'n'roll
star to cranium shock the public so much so that the nickname
of "Skinhead O' Connor" is allotted to him.
In spite of appearances
the goddess of hard rock has a large heart all the same, since
it join to multiple demonstrations against the AIDS like for
Amnesty International. In parallel, it continues the writing
of its albums always better than the precedents. Etonamment,
it integrates in 1998 Tridentine Church in order to there be
ordered priest, but a few months later the revelation of its
homosexuality is missing to him and it misses by little expulsion.
Then follows long and difficult period intermingling depression
and suicide attempts.
But it returns stronger than ever in 2000 with "Faith &
Courage" then in 2002 with "She Who Dwells",
than it announces being its last album. Fortunately, it of it
was nothing and Sinéad returns at the end of 2005 with
a new album "Throw Down Your Arms" made up of resumptions
of reggae. Always there or it is not awaited, there is extremely
to bet that Sinéad will continue to dissociate pop showbiz
by borrowing more spiritual and major voices which make of it
an artist impossible to circumvent.
