She was the carachter in a move called Captive, The edge did the soundtrack for it, welsh film as I understand, based on the story of Patty Hearst, and her abduction, becoming sympathetic to her captors, and in the end one of them. Bad acting, not much fluididty to the story, but most people got into it for the sole reason of the edge , its a pure work of GOD that soundtrack is.
@Gynie75 I got it when it first came out, wore the tape out, that was also what got me into sinnead oconnor. Long before the lion and the cobra. The movie was so bad, I dont think it will ever get a dvd release, Its really a shame to have such great music go unheard though. Just to explain Rowena, was a TOTAL BABE. Played by Irina Brooke
Bad movie indeed. I first got the soundtrack on vinyl (!) and then later went to see the movie with my girlfriend. We were - honestly - the only two people in the entire movie theatre, which of course meant we were able to sit wherever we wanted - and do whatever we wanted.
its soo harmonising, beautiful track and i will always remember it. Its a simple arrangement and i think sometimes you have to strip away alot of the instruments to get a better sound. Music and audio setups are a journey for me and without it i'd be lost
I love the movie this came from. It was called Captive and featured Sinead Oconnors solo debut after singing backup for World Party. Oh, and Oliver reid gave an awesome performance as Rowena's father. Kind of loosely based on the Patty Hearst story.
I'm not a big fan of them, but the guitar sequence is a bit reminiscent of Welcome Home Sanitarium by Metallica. It seems so to me anyway

Go to Amazon and type in [The Edge Captive] and you find the CD Soundtrack for only $7.99. Well worth it.

This track is one of a kind. The best melancholic song ever in my opinion.
Glad someone posted this, but a deeper video would be better
