After spending most of the late '90s out of the spotlight (save for 
1997's GOSPEL OAK EP), Sinead O'Connor's reemergence in 2000
 on a new label coincides with the introspective nature of 
FAITH AND COURAGE, representing a new musical start for her. 
The wide array of producers here results in an ethereal mix of
hip-hop beats, Celtic nuances and electronic shadings. 
FAITH represents O'Connor opening the door on her private life. 
The most biographical tracks are the anthemic
'No Man's Woman,' the Dave Stewart-produced 'Jealous' and 
'Daddy I'm Fine.'

Elsewhere, O'Connor's love of contemporary R&B finds her 
combining ghetto-fabulous reggae beats (overseen by Destiny's 
Child producer Kevin 'She'kspere' Briggs) and Irish pennywhistle 
on 'The Lamb's Book of Life,' a plea for religious tolerance. 
Producer Wyclef Jean also contributes his two cents on the gentle 
soul of 'Dancing Lessons,' recruiting sister Blandinna Melky Jean to
contribute vocals. O'Connor's pride in motherhood is displayed on 
'Emma's Song,' a gorgeous ode to her daughter featuring Brian Eno's
delicate piano playing. Wrapping things up is an ambient 
arrangement of the traditional 'Kyrie Eleison' with a Rastafarian 
edge supplied by reggae legends Junior Delgado and Bim Sherman.

Maybe this is the right order of songs:
 
daddy i'm fine    
dancing lessons    
emma's song    
healing room, the    
hold back the night    
if u ever    
jealous    
kyrie eleison    
lamb's book of life, the    
no man's woman    
state i'm in, the    
till i whisper u something    
what doesn't belong to me
