      La oscuridad es opuesta a la luz, así como la burla es opuesta al respeto, la consideración y la capacidad para reco ocernps en otro ser humano, todos somos iguales, todos somos uno y esa es la verdad. Solo puedo mirar con compasión a las personas que aún viven en una gran sombra, espero que tengan tiempo de ver la luz del amor y sanar algún día.

      She struggles from problems she created herself. She is a Great talent, but self destruction is her mission. She has a tattoo of Christ on her, but she don’t believe, now she is a wannabe Muslim. Such a waste, to listen to her sing this so beautifully.

To my deep regret, I never truly appreciated her amazing gifted talent, her golden,pure voice and ability to interpret songs and in her unique way. It's An emotional watch , even the orchestra members are appreciative and can't help appaudlng. It's a tour De force.

    Wasn't a massive fan.Until now at her passing.Didnt truly listen to her rich canon of work until now.Didnt take the time I guess. A truly remarkable talent.Her interpretive, evocative voice sends shivers down your spine. Ireland's Kate Bush maybe? Unfair to compare the two. But both,sublime,brilliant talents. Sinaed the full Irish, Kate had an Irish mother. Few,if any could sing this song and do it justice. Sinaeds interpretation is perfect.Her golden rich voice to the fore. Courageous and a complete original. A black dark cloud hangs over Ireland this late July morning. But, what an amazing legacy she has left.

      @@Michaelbos You seemed determined to frame Sinead’s “great talent” in a very negative light almost as if the music just masks the reality of a person who is ultimately doomed. Many an aritist has come from a troubled background which may have served as motivation to reach the great heights born out of innate talent combined with hard work but which may in their own mind or of others may hang over them like a cloud such can be the challenges intrinsic to the human condition that can confront people at the outset and perhaps made more difficult by their own choices almost like a relex response. Maybe a less sanctimonious approach would serve you better, appreciate what pleasure people can bring even in the face of tough obstacles and perhaps consider what degree of positivity you bring to the situation rather than a recourse to cynicism or grudging respect.
