| Sinead
O' Connor is a remarkable person.
Born in Ireland. A brother who's a
well-known writer, she herself having many
vocal talents. Her Irish voice has been
mixed with all kinds of different musical
styles, even Jazz.
She had a world hit with a song called
"Nothing Compares To You" with
which she established her name among the
stars. However, she didn't really desire to
become a super star. According to ONE
OF HER OFFICIAL WEBSITES,
she "stepped back from the brink of
superstardom" in 1992 allready.
Some people were shocked when she tore a
picture of the Roman pope apart in front of
the Television Screen. She later apologized
for that, though...(Not
so, says a visitor of the Dubroom)
Others were shocked to read how she had
herself "ordained" as a
"Catholic Priest" by some
off-shoot from the Roman Catholic Church.
This didn't last that long, though...
She quickly FOUND
OUT how the celebacy
which comes with being a Catholic priest
was nothing for her. It lasted a few months
before she had herself removed from the list
of "Women of the Cloth".
Appearantly her (bi-)sexuality (Not
so, says a visitor of the Dubroom)
was stronger then the lust to become an
"official clergywoman"...
So how can it be that Sinead O' Connor is
now said to have released a "Rasta
Album"?
A search on the Internet reveals, that
not every Rastafarian is too happy with this
new release. Especially her (alleged?)
bi-sexuality doesn't seem to rhyme with the
natural view of most if not all Rastafarians
concerning the way sexuality is to be
experienced by us, humans.
Sinead O' Connor herself states that
something did happen in her life. And the
movement and message of Rastafari has been
influential in this. O' Connor states that
the album "Throw Down Your Arms"
is to be seen as a personal witness of her
alleged transformation.
A tranformation to what? A question of
which the answer has yet to be revealed.
According to Sinead O' Connor, her
new album is all about
"rescueing" the Most High and
Almighty God "from religion".
Now when the Almighty God would really be
a prisoner of the organized religions it
would have been a very noble deed from mrs.
O' Connor to free JAH. However, it would be
good for Sinead to realize how the opposite
is the case. She herself is the captive of
organized religions and JAH Almighty is the
Only One Who can set her free from organized
religions.
Sinead O' Connor obviously heard the
Freedom Sounds of Rastafari and Reggae as
she is the first to admit this herself. She
has listened to the voice of the Rastaman
say: "Babylon Your Throne Gone
Down".
Who can deny that the movement of
Rastafari has appealed to the countless of
people who found themselves "caught
between church and state"? Who can deny
that the movement of Rastafari has clearly
exposed how there is no link between the
true God, the Creator, and the
institutionalized religions?
But still, Sinead O' Connor is RECOGNIZED
by some as an "animist"
(Worshipper of creation and dead people) and
she keeps talking about "feminine
aspects" of "God" and
"Creation" all of which can hardly
be subscribed to the movement of Rastafari
as a whole.
Not to mention her (alleged?)
bisexuality. A thing which is discussed at
large in various Rastafarian based
messageboards.
However, a look at her new album, reveals
how she even uses lyrics by one Buju Banton.
This Jamaican Dancehall artist is often a
target of agressive and militant homosexual
activists who are allways trying to fight
down Reggae Music with political
correctness.
