The existence of this song, It's All Good was first reported by the Irish music press back in October 2001. In the initial stages of recording what would eventually become 100th Window, Sinead suggested to Massive Attack the possibility of doing a cover version of song by Irish singer/songwriter Damien Dempsey's It's All Good, which had been a surprisng hit in Ireland the year before in 2000 and had effectively launched Damien Dempsey's career. Her appreciation for the original version was strong having stated before that it was "one of the best songs she's ever heard", and convinced Massive Attack to work with her on the song.
Massive Attack only recieved a arrangement credit for It's All Good. They apparently had no involvement with the production or mixing of the song.
It's All Good has never once been played live by Massive Attack. It may have been played live by Sinead O'Connor and the original composer of the song Damien Dempsey at a few special dates as a duet between the two when they toured together in 2004. If it was played live,it was almost certainly not the Massive Attack version of the song anyway and would have sounded more like the original Damien Dempsey version.
