During her musical career, which encompassed several hit records and artist collaborations, O'Connor drew attention to issues such as child abuse, human rights, racism, and women's rights. She was also known for her outspoken public image, openly discussing her spiritual journey, activism, socio-political viewpoints, and struggles with mental health.' (Wiki) ***'In less than two years, Sinéad O'Connor has become the most talked about woman in rock. Her striking appearance, controversial statements and worldwide chart success have catapulted the Dublin born singer to the forefront of pop. "So Different" is the unauthorized biography of Sinéad, written by Dublin journalist Dermott Hayes and researched through numerous interviews with her friends and musical associates. --- "So Different" also chronicles the problems Sinéad has encountered: her 'row' with Dublin superstars U2, her outspokeness, her relationships with men and the childhood traumas which she has channelled into a positive creative force.'
