Sinéad O'Connor – I'm Not Bossy, I'm The Boss: exclusive album stream | |
(about 1 hour later) | |
During a lengthy chat for a recent Observer profile piece, Sinéad O’Connor told me about her approach to songwriting. “I like to call myself a Stanislavski-system singer/songwriter,” she said. “Writing characters but also playing them … and I couldn’t play them if I didn’t identify with them.” | |
You can hear what she means on her fantastic 10th album, a collection of love songs that are sung from a variety of perspectives. From the nervous bride in The Vishnu Room to the woman who has no time for commitment on Kisses Like Mine, the album shows off O’Connor’s versatile songwriting. She’s also packing a rough, rock’n’roll punch on this follow-up to 2012’s How About I Be Me (And You Be You), something she says came about as a result of listening to a lot of Chicago blues music. Listen to the new album ahead of its release on the player below and let us know your thoughts. | |
