How About I Be Me (And You Be You): Deluxe

Limited Special three disc (two CDs + PAL/Region 0 DVD) hardcover edition includes a bonus live CD and a DVD with exclusive video content and an artwork poster. The book contains lyrics, sleeve notes by Sinead, Joseph O'Connor and John Grant and exclusive photography. 2012 album from the controversial Irish singer/songwriter. How About I Be Me (And You Be You) is her ninth studio album and as show stopping a performance as her silver jubilee deserves. Produced by long-term collaborator John Reynolds, it's 10 tracks play like an encyclopedic definition of O' Connor's oeuvre: songs about love and loss, hope and regret, pain and redemption, anger and justice. There has never been mistaking Sinead O' Connor for anybody else. A voice born to break as many hearts as windows, as tender as it is lethal. The face, simultaneously that of ocean-wide-eyed angel and shaven-headed warrior queen. And the spirit, courageous in it's conviction, undaunted by controversy and fortified with endless reserves of resilience. Sinead O' Connor is that rare thing in popular music: A complete one-off.
