#3 In order for Ms. O'Connor to retire from the music business, she would have had to have been a musician in the first place.

#4 "[I] am a very shy person, believe it or not. So I ask with love, that I be left in peace and privacy by people who love my records too. And I hope it doesn't sound rude. It ain't meant rude. I am glad that ye are helped by my songs. So help me too, by giving me what is best for me, a private life.

Our pleasure... just keep your end of the deal.

#7 "As of July 2003 I shall be retiring from the music business [in] order to pursue a different career," she writes.

Like what, wig tester? Buzzcut advocate?

(note: her web site makes mention of "health problems")

#9 I would have thought her "gone with the Spice Girls" myself had my Direct TV not had her on a "free/ pay per view" (Oxymoron?) concert last month. I really was put off by her penchant for antics, but you have to admit, she has a fine "set of pipes"... (vocal ones, perv)

#11 It seems like she does this on a regular basis. If you're going to retire, just go away.

It's not like anything she did after her first album was that great, and that was only okay.
