Smackie are referring the Hank Shocklee remix of "Emperor's New Clothes", because that's a bumpin track. https://youtu.be/2aaIF-KDg2Q
No, but they are on the same
CD single.. And I agree that the Mandinka single is very reminiscent of 1990, but that's when I was playing parties.
My friend
Joe Nelson (who rescued a ton of OC punk music and has been releasing them) summed up most of my thoughts on Sinead:
---------------
When the music biz tried to groom her as a “cute” pop star at the BEGINNING of her career she shaved her head.
When the Grammys tried to give her some award she used the platform to blast them for at the time excluding rap as a legit form of music.
When Saturday Night Live had her on she used the space to protest the Catholic Church, accusing them of child abuse and rape - a full 8 years before that shit was all shown to be true.
When some venue demanded she play the American National Anthem before her set, she refused to go on, pretty much destroying her career in the States as all the righties in our fair land “cancel cultured” her.
A true rebel if ever there was one. R.I.P. legend!

There's even a story on that thread about her playing Bob Dylans's 50th birthday, getting loudly booed and instead of doing the Dylan song she was scheduled to do, she recited the lyrics to War by Bob Marley.
So good.
