* GenreAdultery: Her third album ''Am I Not Your Girl?''. It was a bit early in a career to make an album of mostly standards. It largely stiffed on release, partly because some of the songs (e.g. "Don't Cry For Me, Argentina") were by songwriters who were considered horribly unfashionable by most Sinéad O'Connor fans. The album also baffled Sinéad's fans, who were not expecting an album of covers as the follow-up to the wildly successful ''I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got''.

* OneHitWonder: "Nothing Compares 2 U". After ''I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got'', she was not able to replicate her success, though she did have a loyal fanbase. On the other hand, she made it very clear that she never intentionally attempted to replicate that success.
* ReferencedBy: ''Series/YoungSheldon'': In the Season 4 finale, Missy plays "Nothing Compares To You" over and over while locked in her room.

Trivia tropes can't be played with, and Old Shame is no longer trivia anyway.


* OldShame: Inverted. Despite the controversy, she's not remotely ashamed of her infamous ''Saturday Night Live'' appearance and has even said she considers it the proudest moment of her career.

* CelebrityBreakupSong: "Thank You For Hearing Me" was based on her breakup with Music/PeterGabriel, with whom she had an on-and-off relationship in the early '90s. According to O'Connor, she ended the relationship out of dissatisfaction towards Gabriel's lack of commitment (given that he had recently divorced his first wife and, per his own word, was undergoing therapy to deal with it).

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: A ''lot'' of rarities, including B-sides. Although this was partially remedied by the release of her compilation of rarities, ''She Who Dwells In The Secret Place Of The Most High Shall Abide Under The Shadow Of The Almighty'', tracks like "You Made Me The Thief Of Your Heart" can be found only on her compilation ''So Far'' or the soundtrack to Film/InTheNameOfTheFather. And it's ''really'' hard to find her contributions to the ''The Butcher Boy'' soundtrack, ''Red Hot + Blue'' and ''Red Hot + Rhapsody'' other than on those albums.
