Oxegen 2007
Sinead O'Connor

Describe In Three Words: Nothing compares to...

Remarkable Moment: She starts off a little nervously, but soon locates the voice and then throws down three aces: 'Emperor's New Clothes', 'I Am Stretched On Your Grave' and 'You Made Me The Thief Of Your Heart'. Jaws are dropping and people are reminded that here's an artist with personality and heart - so far away from the mundane rockers all over this site. She dips liberally from the first two albums and leaves the spiritual meditations of the 'Theology' album for another day. How great to hear 'Never Get Old' after all this time. She's singing those Arabic scales again. And then the people get to sing 'Nothing Compares 2 U' like it's 1990. Bonus!

Crowd Reaction: Friends of Sinead, reunited.
