Details: Amazon.ca Faith And Courage, Sinead O'Connor's first album in six years, is a marked change in direction from the pared-down urban folk beats of 1994's Universal Mother. For her Atlantic debut, she has embraced rock guitar, co-writing 13 tracks with a range of star producers including Dave Stewart, Brian Eno, Wyclef Jean and Adrian Sherwood. Featured here is "No Man's Woman", a strong declaration of intent ("I haven't traveled this far to become a man's woman") laced with raw guitar riffs and a subtle calypso flavour. Also distinctive is "Daddy I'm Fine", a loping, off-kilter look at being a rock star where O'Connor deadpans: "I wanna look good in my black leather boots.../I feel real hot and my make -up's nice/I'm gonna fuck every man in sight." In places, O'Connor's voice is swallowed up in a mix that's too FM-radio-friendly, but overall this is a resonant set of songs. --Lucy O'Brien Product Description O'Conner's much anticipated and first all-new album in six long years is a strikingly expressive collection of songs. Blending edge pop, space-age electronica and street-smart R&B into her own special sonic brew, O'Conner gets assistance from Dave Stewart, Brian Eno, Wyclef Jean and more on cuts including "No Man's Woman," "Summer's End," "Daddy I'm Fine," "The State I'm In" and more.
