Pardon me, having major vision problems, I'll go off the board and pick something I know wouldn't have been picked and I'll come back latter and catch up

This will most likely be switched to my Punk selection. But for me right now I'll just leave it here. Today as we look back it, it might seem like a strange fit as Punk but back then in 1988 punk was taking a quite a different change then what we associate today. This was a couple years before Sinéad would break down the boundaries that were on female artist as a performer and at this time this shaved head fireball wearing doc's and a leather jacket with a fire in her belly like no other was as punk as punk could be.
Never really my favourite recording of her's, I much preferred a less angry and hurt Sinéad but for the time it was a huge record for those that were listening outside of the charts
