Believe me, it's on the album somewhere written in English and in Gaelic. BTW, anybody else hear that Sinead is recording again? Sorry, I haven't read the list in a while so this might be old news, but the tentative title of the new album is "Am I Not Your Girl." -Dana From jitr-request@presto.ig.com Mon Aug 24 14:33:35 1992 Received: by presto.ig.com (5.61/1.15) id AA03781; Mon, 24 Aug 92 14:32:08 -0700 Received: from iitmax.iit.edu by presto.ig.com (5.61/1.15) with SMTP id AA03777; Mon, 24 Aug 92 14:32:05 -0700 Received: from elof.iit.edu by iitmax.iit.edu with SMTP id AA23650 (5.64+/IDA/NIU-1.3.1 for jitr@presto.ig.com); Mon, 24 Aug 92 15:32:01 -0600 Received: by elof.iit.edu (NeXT-1.0 (From Sendmail 5.52)/NeXT-1.0) id AA02960; Mon, 24 Aug 92 16:31:59 GMT-0500 Date: Mon, 24 Aug 92 16:31:59 GMT-0500 From: boarjas@elof.iit.edu (Jason Boardman) Message-Id: <9208242131.AA02960@ elof.iit.edu > To: jitr Subject: The discography Status: OR I have made slight revisions here and there in the Sinead discography.

Try astounded....I have heard what I assume is the first single off the new album, it was played on the radio this weekend. I actually listened to this for about two minutes thinking "I know that voice. Who is that? Geez, it sounds so familiar....Oh my God, that's Sinead!" Her voice, next to this massive accompianment, sounded so strange, the whole piece so bizarre, that I hadn't recognized her at all. I hope some of you out there like it. I have a sad and sinking feeling about this album.

I head "success has made a failure of our home" the other day. It started really well, i still really like the sound of sinead's voice, and there were some intesrting aspects to the song - the sound was unusal in a way.. but overall it didn't seem to really go anywhere - the ending (where she sings "am i not your girl?" over and over) didn't sound as good as I tihnk she could have made it.. "weak" isn't quite the right word, but something along those lines - I think it could have sounded more passionate, in fact the whole song could have - the lyrics seemed just "ok", there was something i didn't like about them, but i'll have to hear the song a few more times before i have a better opinion. That's all just on a first listen in a car with a radio station not coming in all that well, so it's all more subject to change than usual. jessica From jitr-request@presto.ig.com Mon Aug 24 16:49:33 1992 Received: by presto.ig.com (5.61/1.15) id AA07535; Mon, 24 Aug 92 16:47:57 -0700 Received: from whistler.sfu.ca by presto.ig.com (5.61/1.15) with SMTP id AA07530; Mon, 24 Aug 92 16:47:53 -0700 Received: from okeefe.cstudies.sfu.ca by whistler.sfu.ca (5.65/SFU-2.0) id AA13847; Mon, 24 Aug 92 16:47:42 -0700 Message-Id: <9208242347.AA13847@whistler.sfu.ca> Sender: okeefe@sfu.ca Date: Mon, 24 Aug 1992 16:48:43 +0000 To: jessica@maurolycus.rutgers.edu From: okeefe@sfu.ca Subject: Re: new song Cc: jitr Status: OR >JUliet, what was the song you heard on the radio? > >I head "success has made a failure of our home" the >other day.

It's the same song. You sound much more positive about it than I can bring myself to feel. I guess I just can't get used to the sound of that orchestra - Sinead O'Connor and Nelson Riddle was not exactly what I had in mind as far as a new album went. Of course, Sinead has every right to tell me and anyone else who expected something different to eff off. She's never been what you could call predictable...is there a desire to do something totally unexpected behind this album, do you think? Was she so sick of her public image that she wanted to briefly shatter it? Will she go on tour with an orchestra? Singing the greatest hits of the 30's and 40's? I guess we'll find out soon enough.

I have a few questions and comments, maybe you out there can help. 1) Looking in the archives, I saw reference to some movie Sinead was in recently ... Hush A Bye Baby. Did anyone see this? Was it released in the theaters, or can I find it on video? 2) Does anyone out there know where I can get a copy of the 3 Babies CD single? 3) A couple of weeks ago, I saw a 7" of _Silent Night_. I didn't buy it, since I don't usually buy vinyl. But I noticed it wasn't on the discography. Should it be added? And what do people think about the song? 4) Does anybody out there have "Take My Hand"?, the song she did with In Tua Nua? What did she sound like back then? Well, I hope to hear from some of you !

Berch) Subject: New Sinead video debuts To: jitr Status: OR Well, about five minutes ago MTV premiered (in my time zone, anyway) Sinead's new video for "Success (Has Made a Failure of Our Home)", which is purportedly originally a Tammy Wynette song which was also covered by Elvis Costello. Both the song and video are Major Strange, if you ask me, but in a cool, spooky way. The video features Sinead standing in front of a darkened room which looks sort of like a '50s nightclub, with many microphones, as if to give a press conference; as she begins the song, she is singing in the voice-over but on stage she is instead signing the lyrics in what I assume is ASL. (Later she sings on stage as well, and continues signing) Throughout the video images of still photographs are superimposed -- mostly they are of children, possibly starving or abused, and the camera pans across the audience -- press photographers, mostly -- as Sinead sings, over and over and over, "Am I not your girl?"
