I Do Not Want What I Haven’t Got topped the charts

March 24, 1990
Sinead O’Connor album I Do Not Want What I Haven’t Got was No.1 on the UK and US album charts, on this date.

The album was released in March of 1990, by April, the single Nothing Compares 2 U from the album went to #1 in America and many other countries, thrusting 23-year-old Sinéad into the spotlight. The attention had some deleterious effects on the singer. O’Connor claimed she hated the fame the song brought her, and she struggled with the commercialization of her music.
