Just to reinforce this cosmic connection, remember that Sinead was
originally scheduled to perform on the Saturday Night Live hosted by
Andrew Dice Clay, and when she boycotted the show, the replacement 
musical guest was Julee Cruise. The following season, Sinead was the
musical guest on SNL, on the show hosted by Kyle MacLachlan.
