"And it's sheer coincidence that I have an album coming out, too."

I can't help it. I just love her. I think she's cooler than hell, and I love her music. Which is bizarre, because the only other band I like that much is Ministry.

Apples and Oranges, I guess.

Anyway, good for her on the Priesthood thing. I say screw the Pope. That hat doesn't impress me like it used to.

Whatever she does or say, as I stated a few days ago on one of my own blogs. She's partly confused and partly in the business of making press for herself - and she likes creating controversy so she can be a martyr. I don't care, as long as she sings. Unfortunately, the music on her new album Faith and Courage is a bit bland. The voice, however, is still pure as the driven snow. I've great respect for her. I hope herself and John (Waters, journalist, father of Roisin) can work out some kind of stability for the child.

Trust the art, not the artist.

She was always much more of a poseur than she needed to be. Very frustrating, some of her early work was exquisite, yet she didn't realize how fine the self-parody line was.
