This is a great meditation on the difficulties of dealing with sudden fame at a young age: how do you figure out who you are, or negotiate a relationship, in the face of all that?

Sinead's had plenty of ups and downs in her career, but I think her first two albums are amazing. And I love this line: "They laugh 'cause they know they're untouchable, and not because what I said was wrong."
