Sinead O'Connor: Crazy Baldhead
Adrian Deevoy, Q, January 1993
IT'S A PHILOSOPHICAL agenda that would make David Icke vibrate with envy. Consider Sinead O'Connor's current take on the state of play: 96 per cent of Catholics were abused as children; the world would be a better place if it were run by Princess Diana; everyone should smoke pot; Jesus Christ was married with kids; we should all stop working and give away our money; the "Holy Roman Empire" is the root of all evil; the New Testament is a forgery; Hitler was sort of misunderstood.
