    "Faith and Courage" is irish meets reggae. It's a beautiful mixture and shows she isn't scared to explore her talents. Excellent CD!

    I think that Sinead O'Connor is extremely talented and her music is beautiful. She is my inspiration and I would love to write some music as good as hers.

    This album dissappointed me. I knew deep down as I purchased it that it would have some mediocre music on it as it was Sinead's 4th or 5th proper studio album. It had been 13 years since she arrived on the music scene and this ended up being her last CD of original music. I disliked much of it save for 3 or 4 songs. Later, she wisely chose traditional music and then a CD of Rasta music which fit her voice perfectly. My little songstress is back!!! Expand

  1. O'Connor's most coherent record since 1990's ''I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got"
  2. An infectious record.
  3. Even though O'Connor adopts a penitent tone on Faith and Courage, this album is no concession to anyone or anything. O'Connor is still O'Connor: strident, contradictory, motherly, seductive.
