Sinéad O’Connor - Theology
An uncompromising talent, O’Connor came out of retirement to release 2005’s Throw Down Your Arms, a collection of conscious reggae classics. Now, the Irish icon offers an album she calls “my attempt to create a place of peace in a time of war.” The two-disc set includes both acoustic and pop versions of eight new numbers and several passionate covers, including “I Don’t Know How to Love Him,” from Jesus Christ Superstar. But the best song is her stunning “Something Beautiful,” which radiates peace and tranquility.
