Since my next guest appeared on the show last February, she's got married, she wrote the score
for and made her acting debut in a film, she made a huge impact on the world's megas when she
performed Mandinka live at the Grammy Awards in LA last March and this week she has jumped,
her record has jumped from number 30 in the UK charts to number 3 and if you had a spare few
pound like hanging around in your pocket you could do worse than put it on her for number
one in lieu of Kylie Minogue by Monday.
So would you welcome please Sinead O'Connor.
