    All in all it's as essential a piece of O'Connor's history as anything in her catalog.

    Collaborations is a reasonably diverse batch of songs -- nearly all of them enjoyable, and some of them quite inspired.

    What's disappointing is how evenly-tempoed and sedate the pace is. [Jun 2005, p.95]

    Sinead has a beautiful voice and is a perfect collaborative artist. However, the absence of "Haunted" with Shane Macgowan and the Popes is Sinead has a beautiful voice and is a perfect collaborative artist. However, the absence of "Haunted" with Shane Macgowan and the Popes is absolutely unforgivable .
