Show Notes
Irish singer, songwriter and political activist Sinéad O'Connor recently passed away. She consistently brought attention to issues related to child abuse (notably during that 1992 "Saturday Night Live" performance), human rights, racism, organised religion, and women's rights. Throughout her music career, she spoke about her spiritual journey, activism, socio-political views, as well as her trauma and mental health struggles.
Since then I’ve delved ever so deeply into her vast back catalogue of music…quite literally hours and hours of listening, singing and quite often crying! But I’ve finally narrowed it down to 11 of my favourite songs, including a couple of amazing collabs plus a very special closing song! I really hope you love this "folk rock to deep beats" journey I've created for you to remember her by. Sinéad: Nothing Compared 2 U. Love Magnus.

ARE YOU READY 2 CONFESS? ARE YOU READY 2 DANCE?
So very sad to read about the passing of William Orbit, it’s hit me really hard! A true pioneering music maestro of our time. His career spanned four decades and he sold over 200 million recordings worldwide. Apart from his groundbreaking “genius” work with Madonna on her Ray of Light, Music, and MDNA albums, for me his “Adagio for Strings” is an incredible masterpiece.
Ready? People think that dance music is superficial But they've got it all wrong The dance floor is not just a place, it's a threshold A ritualistic space where movement replaces language
Baby come and get with me... And my Love Sensation Remix, enjoy!
Ask yourself this What are you doing it for? Is it for you? Is it for them? I got something I wanna talk about...
