Rest in Peace Sinead, your music and your story will endure forever. You have been an inspiration to me and to countless other people around the globe....
I think the best thing people can do is check up on each other. Reach out to those friends you avoid because you don't know what to say or how to react when they are hurting. Ask them how you can help them. Bring them coffee and cigarettes. Ask them if they need a hug. Make them laugh..
I didn’t think this would get me but it did. When she ripped off the wig. There was something so defiant about her, but so strong. She’s the type that makes it into Heaven, not hateful bigots.
I like to think if this was released in the 90s it would have gotten the recognition it deserves... but then she needed to live her whole life in order to write such a beautiful song.
Why is it that every time I listen to a song by Sinead O'connor, I can't hold back the tears?... She was and continues to be a force of nature... the heart, soul and spirit of Ireland... In my heart, I believe she is FINALLY at rest and peace in the hands of God... pure unselfish love... What a gift from God to all of us... So grateful for her life and legacy !!!! (So choked up right now... I need to go outside just to breathe...)
I'm cryinh now, ironically after watching her sing "The Wolf is Getting Married" on Graham Norton. Best of her live performances...or right up there. This grief is definitely getting worse as-the months wear on and the shock off. Reading comments of strangers who share these emotions is about the only balm for it.
Sinead is my ALL TIME FAVORITE female vocalist ever!!! My heart is so very tragically broken by how she suffered so in her last days and how she was taken from all of us. She was a singular talent. She didn't just have an incredible command over her voice and use it in so many creative and distinctive ways, but she spoke what she believed, bared her soul and did the best she could to live a regular life. There was little pretense with her unlike so many other musicians. I read about it all over the internet. When I hear her sing traditional Irish songs, it stirs the depths of my soul as I have Irish ancestry. Nothing compares to her!!!
Every time I hear “I’ve done so many bad things it hurts” I crack. The honesty in it makes my stomach squeeze. I want to embrace myself as much as she does herself. It’s all so beautiful. Embracing all of herself. The good and the bad. Incredibly inspiring
Yeah, all the bad things I've done don't compare to the shame felt from of child abuse. It's what led me (and many others) to do bad things. Yet somehow to embrace all of it is healing. Powerful song.
Upon my recent first hearing her & Willie Nelson's cover of Peter Gabriel/Kate Bush's "Don't Give Up", after Willie's usual "speaking" singing of the first verse, when Sinead started to sing, I felt (like in ALL she sang!) the raw emotion/pure energy hit me like a thunderbolt! It moved me so much that I immediately began to sob and, after only a few seconds, had to stop playing it as it was simply overwhelming! THAT was the genius that was Sinead O'Connor, and that shall forever be her legacy!! xoxo
I cry every time I listen to Sinead sing. I cry even more every time I listen to this song. My daughter is gonna sing this and become a star. RIP Sinead...you voiced your hurt to help us all...and they vilified you for it...I thank you for it.
Did the world even know this woman existed?!? Now we've lost her, and here she was, this powerhouse hid right in front of us, eclipsed by shadows and bad media....
1:53 "I'm the only one I should adore" - this hits deep - just one of so many things I learned from Sinead. I hope you know how much we loved you Sinead 💗
I have this exact lyric as a tattoo. I put it inside a circle that says "thank you for hearing me." I went through the darkest time of my life last May and it was Sinead's music that got me through it.
Sinead's sometimes brutal honesty has been a major talking point among her critics, but honestly, as a fan, I find it refreshing. The burden is so much easier when you know you're not the only one bearing it. I am so grateful for this lady's life and art!
I literally broke down crying when she ripped off the wig. What a strong, brave, relevant, beautiful, intelligent human we are watching. Wonderful song, wonderful video. Thank you to all involved.
I did too, Chris!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE. My beautiful Sister Sinead, back in form like never before. And looking so beautiful. No other artist fills my heart with as much love, joy, and gratitude.
She clearly was struggling so much with her past and faith, they haunted her until the very end. You can notice like so many abused Irish Catholic women, she tried many times to repair her life and take console in Christianity, but no one was helping her, that she totally went 180 and converted to Islam. This song should punch every church in the world! LOVE! STOP HATE! STOP HURTING PEOPLE! RIP SINEAD!
why.... why did you go eh? so many of us sare just like you Sinead, you were a voice for some of us no matter what they did you still spoke , loud enough...... we heard you. we still hear you
'I'm the only one I should adore'. You wish she could have just believed that lyric. I feel this performance shows her at her very best and really sums up her spirit. What a wonderful, strong, inspiring, warm, funny and troubled soul. I sincerely hope she has found her peace. And perhaps she's somewhere duetting 'All Kinds of Everything' with Terry Hall.
I'll be honest. I'm a few years older than Sinead but I love Irish singers, being Irish myself. The only two songs I'd heard her sing were Nothing Compares 2 U and Sacrifice. I loved this voice. Then October 3, 1992 she turned the world on it's axis and the stations I was listening to just stopped cold dead playing her. Other than seeing an occasional eye popping headline (she was entertaining) I had no idea she was suffering so, I wish that I had paid closer attention. I had no idea that she had other music. I also had no idea the way New York treated this young petite 25 year old, female visitor to our country when she left the studio that night by pelting her with eggs. An abuse survivor literally being assaulted without bothering to understand what her motivation was. The excuse might be well we didn't know, but that would've rung hollow. So I heard this song 3 days ago and I cannot help but feel like America robbed her and itself of her incredible and honest view of the world. I think she was really underrated and undervalued. This song though, was so strong and she was so strong and f beautiful. I can't help but remember that icon of Catholic virtue Madonna saying she looked like she had a run-in with a lawnmower and had the sex appeal of a venetian blind. Madonna was never attractive on any level and Sinead looked great with or without hair. I will be spending the coming days trying to acquire or listen to everything and anything I can. But in the end, we lost her. Ireland lost her. And I am just sadder than I thought I could ever possibly be over the last 30 years for her. I certainly never thought she'd beat me off this rock.
I am a few years younger than Sinead and have been a fan since I've known her voice, actually the ripping up of the Pope's picture impressed me almost more than her music, as I was leaving the Catholic curch around the same time myself. I had aquired a few of her CD's during the last years. "Universal Mother" being on of my favourites, but never got around to get "I'm Not Bossy. I'm the Boss" or "What About I be Me (And You be You)?" although just the title of these CDs impressed me very much. Had lost a bit of track of her as I'd spent much time in South America during the last 30 years and there's so much great music over there as well. I now deeply regret never have been able to see her live (though I do own a copy of her live DVD "The Value of Ignorance / The year of the Horse", which I've watched numerous times). Since she died I've been down the rabbit hole of Sinead's videos on UA-cam and I fell in love with her even more, watching many interviews. The sad truth is, she was mismanaged as well, struggeling financially, was forced to sell her house during the pandemic (which might have also triggered her son to commit suicide, who knows?) and I feel ashamed now, that I didn't know, I feel guilty for not having bought the CDs or contributed to her income more. If I'd only have known. She would have needed a good person by her side during her life to stick by her side and help her emotionally as well as managing her in a way that she would not have to bother about money at this stage of her life. So many people loved her and her music, she gave so much to all of us, why couldn't we give back more to her? We need to watch out for our artists more.
That opening fusion of the Nothing Compares video and Sinead singing those powerful lyrics is genius. I have always loved Nothing Compares to You the song and video for its honesty, the pain and emotion of it.This new track that sounds like a healing process but has real venom in the lyrics about the churches that hurt, it's so full of emotions, just different. She's not going to be hurt by the emotions any more, taking charge, singing her song.
Incredible video. It's like a rebirth. She was vital in this one. Rest in peace and in love, dear Sinead. You gave your all. Your truth and your secrets. I don't know what comes after this life, I just hope you are at peace with your boy.
I love her energy in this video. I dont believe in any church but i "get" this song. She's been my fn superhero for 33-34 years. I always wanted to be able to meet her, just to give Sinead a proper hug of complete love..to tell her how inspiring she was for so many girls in their teens back then. I hope now, shes able to really see that from so many of us that always really did understand everything she did.😢
I've been listening to this song lately and can't stop. So much energy in this song. I'm still in shock that you're not with us, Sinead It is unbearably painful to realize this. Rest in peace.🥀🥀🥀💔💔💔
Yep, she reminds me of this verse: "Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke?" ~Isaiah 58:6
Discovering Sinead's music after loving her in high school 1988, first three albums I've always played. And there is SO MUCH MORE. Listening to her myriad interviews throughout these years, reading her book. Missing her artistry and she was just a very incredible, smart, loving, and fascinating human being.
Rest in peace Sinéad, one of the most beautiful voices to ever grace humanity, I found out about her through massive attack's 100th window and I fell in love ever since
It’s crazy my old beagle dog has come from a very tumultuous home. She is absolutely terrified by loud noises she shakes all over. It’s New Years Eve right now. I just discovered Sinead O Connor yesterday on her documentary. For some reason only when I play Sinead O Connor’s music my dog stops shaking and calms enough to fall right to sleep. Once the song is over she wakes back up. So I played a Sinead O Connor interview. SAMe thing my dog just stops shaking and calmly falls asleep. I have been dealing with my dogs absolute anxiety attacks on New Years Eve every single year for the last 3 years. I can’t believe it works. Just the sound of Sinead’s voice calms my formerly neglected dog. 💔 Truly a divine force.
Prayers to Sinead who continues to fight more hardships than any human should have to. The death of a child is quite possibly the most devastating thing a human can endure in the universe. May God help you find the peace and strength you need during this troubling time.
@@moehio You're both wrong. She didn't have a problem with Catholicism but rather those within the church who abused their power. She was ordained a priest in a breakaway Catholic branch.
07.26.24 It's been one year since you've left our earthly plane, dear Sinéad. Thank you for being you. Thank you so much for your voice. Love you, lady.
Kim Gloria Sinead is always beautiful, because of who she is. If you're a kind, compassionate person, who cares about other people, you are always beautiful too, Kim Gloria. The weight will come off when you're ready. I'm overweight too, can relate to how you're feeling, but remain mindful that my excess weight does not define me.
I heard it yesterday for the first time. She created a fusion between "going to church" and contemporary rythmic music in a way that only a genius could do. My sincere admiration for her.
Your music has been a comfort during the tormenting bouts of insanity and your life was an inspiration which I always strove to imitate during my brief moments of lucidity. My heart is beyond broken! You paid your dues and the whole world owes you! The world lost its fiercest warrior today. More a man than any man, a great brother in time of need, and a mother/father of the church that was most sorely needed. Thank you for tearing down Popes that needed to be, and thank you for not bowing before any king! I love you S.O.!
Incredible, pure, sensitive, wise, fighting and extraordinary human being. The world kept breaking you since you were a child. But you poured your broken heart and soul over your incredible music, and we are so fortunate to keep that forever. Rest In Peace, angel ❤️🩹🙏🏻
How I envy people who had a chance to see with their own eyes this great woman with a phenomenally beautiful soul! In my terrible country, she was only once and I did not know about it in advance, I could not come to the capital. Rest in peace, dear Sinead. Nothing compares to you.
I was lucky enough to see Sinead in concert a few times and I can honestly say that she sounded the same live as she does on CD. Best female artist of all time in my opinion. Heartbroken Sinead has gone.
6/7/2-24 Here again. This song makes me cry. Religion has wounded so many people. I am trying to hold onto God, but let the religious poison go. I relate to this song on deep levels. RIP Sinead. You were a prophetess and ahead of your years. You spoke so much truth. I hope what came after this hard life is exactly what you deserve, Beautiful Soul.
I just started to listen to this album. The loss of her son was heartbreaking in 2022. Something she never recovered from. But she did seem in 2014. To be in a happy place. She was no longer writing about her painful and tormented past. She lived 20 mins away from me in bray. She was a very private person. She bought a place in roundwood. Where she wrote her memoir. After she sold her place in bray. Roundwood is a very remote part of wicklow
Such a loss. Another iconic artist gone,..though never forgotten. Troubled yet talented, honest and beautiful. Thank you Sinead for all you left us with. You will remain in our hearts, music and personality that endures. Peace and happiness in your new world ❤
A powerful message. This amazing artist has stayed true to her values and has never backed down from anything. The music industry has tried to destroy her without success. Yes, she may not be a top pop performer, but she is a true political activist within her music. I also could not believe this was Sinead at first, but I wanted to cheer when she tore her wig off.
Oh I fell in love with her when I was only 19...this year I'll be 45 and I have always seen her as strong, beautiful and intelligent! She had a deep Knowing always when so many turned a blind eye! I love and respect her for that - until I pass on!!! Thank You, Sinead!!!
This is a song of strength. Of redemption through introspection and acceptance. It is amazingly profound and revealing. Sine ad bares her sound and her pain to show you there is beauty in hope and self forgiveness. She is an angel. A beautiful soul she shares with us despite the toll it takes on her to be so vulnerable. Thank you Sinead. You are my angel, my sister and my inspiration.
A very underrated but powerful and spiritual song from Sinead O'Connor. RIP to such a unique, talented, outspoken, brave artist. May you find everlasting peace that you sought for in this mortal plane. Nothing Compares 2 U 😢⚘
The pain in her eyes/face when she sings, "I've done so many bad things it hurts," is in itself painful to watch. She was a unique talent, to say the least.
I feel the same way you do , I started listening to her when I started 5th or 6th grade. Hardcore fan of hers forever. I'm really hoping for another tour, I've never seen her live and I want to so badly.
Sinead is the kind of human who needs a church to feel good about her thinking, her decisions, her visions, etc. I do not understand those people, and it is interesting to watch them extol their fears creatively. She is a phenomenal person in many ways. I wish she did not need so many assurances but she would not be Sinead without the need for them.
living with obsessive compulsive disorder is for me, the constant guilt and questioning of my own sanity and morals and worth. i feel so guilty somtimes,just for my thoughts. befor i left you may see my comment about suicidal stuff, but i’m happy and proud to say i whent to a mental hospital for help, and i’m truley forever grateful for the experience. i’m still me. but i’m forever changed. and i have answeres .💕
The genius of this song is it's directness and truthfulness. You realise she released this song/prayer a little while before she was guided to the religion of Islam... So God responded and Sinead was taken to "church" (and not the one that hurt her, which ain't the Truth). Check out her interviews about her conversation to Islam. She talks about the second chapter of the Quran and how she realised, when reading it, that she had arrived home.

Why was this not a massive fucking single? Holy shit… this should have topped the charts globally.
The other song with same title dominated the charts at the time. This one deserved the same You're right.
I just wish this song was longer. It ends too fast❤
I know! This is an amazing song, especially considering her history with Church and church.
💯 agree
Yes
Rest in Peace Sinead, your music and your story will endure forever. You have been an inspiration to me and to countless other people around the globe....
Never to be forgotten. 😢
RIP gorgeous woman.
Can't believe it. Sending Light for her journey. 💜 May she finally know Peace now.
Rest in power, darlin with so many names. You ARE a bolt of light.
AMEN!🙏💜💙
I think the best thing people can do is check up on each other. Reach out to those friends you avoid because you don't know what to say or how to react when they are hurting. Ask them how you can help them. Bring them coffee and cigarettes. Ask them if they need a hug. Make them laugh..
GOD I miss you Sinead, you were such a light!
I didn’t think this would get me but it did. When she ripped off the wig. There was something so defiant about her, but so strong. She’s the type that makes it into Heaven, not hateful bigots.
She had the soul of an Irish warrior

Спасибо Вам за Вашу откровенность, за Ваши прекрасные слова. Я чувствую то же, что и Вы.
oh my gosh, you too! let em flow. She was amazing and we miss her so much.
Never say sorry for who you are. All Personalities are different. She was so beautiful 😢.
Sinead is my ALL TIME FAVORITE female vocalist ever!!! My heart is so very tragically broken by how she suffered so in her last days and how she was taken from all of us. She was a singular talent.

Word! ❤
I'm disappointed with myself that I'm only realising how great Sinéads music is after she has passed. Legend 😢
Same here, got really into The Lion and The Cobra these past few weeks. Wish I would’ve had the chance to see her live
She has so so so many great songs
Sinead will live forever in her music
Every time I hear “I’ve done so many bad things it hurts” I crack. The honesty in it makes my stomach squeeze. I want to embrace myself as much as she does herself. It’s all so beautiful. Embracing all of herself. The good and the bad. Incredibly inspiring
What a load of self absorbed , narcissistic guff . Poor me , poor me , pour me another drink.
Same, especially now...
So beautifully articulated. Thank you.
Yeah, all the bad things I've done don't compare to the shame felt from of child abuse. It's what led me (and many others) to do bad things. Yet somehow to embrace all of it is healing. Powerful song.
Dan jangan putus asa inshallah god will kamu berjaya,saya juga banyak dosa tidak terkira banyaknya tetap tidak putus asa Alhamdulillah
Yes, I'm crying.... We will miss you Sinead. Thank you for everything 💚
Every time I hear her I cry ,because I’m overwhelmed by her talent,beauty and transparency with her heart ,mind and soul.
Upon my recent first hearing her & Willie Nelson's cover of Peter Gabriel/Kate Bush's "Don't Give Up", after Willie's usual "speaking" singing of the first verse, when Sinead started to sing, I felt (like in ALL she sang!) the raw emotion/pure energy hit me like a thunderbolt!

Спасибо Вам. ❤❤❤ И я тоже чувствую это.
Eyes like a wild Irish sea, Rest In Peace....
Beautiful comment
Sinead was not made for these times, but she gave us so much. RIP
Troppo tutto
Mitica
So beautiful. Nobody should say sorry for who they are. Be proud of yourself ❤
I cry every time I listen to Sinead sing.
I cry even more every time I listen to this song.
My daughter is gonna sing this and become a star.
RIP Sinead...you voiced your hurt to help us all...and they vilified you for it...I thank you for it.
I love her so much. This is the greatest song she ever wrote. It sums up everything I love about her.
This is the Sinead I will remember, the one who was healing herself and the world with her music. Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un big sister
Did the world even know this woman existed?!? Now we've lost her, and here she was, this powerhouse hid right in front of us, eclipsed by shadows and bad media....
Oh yes - the spiritually truthful world knew her and loved her. The "other" world doesn't matter.
Th USA did her wrong.
@@Armistead_MacSkyewe definitely knew in Ireland. May Sinead and Dolores rest in peace now.
Prayed for you in Makka, at the Kaaba 🕋, and in Madina this week. Won’t stop 😊😢
1:53 "I'm the only one I should adore" - this hits deep - just one of so many things I learned from Sinead. I hope you know how much we loved you Sinead 💗

Exactly, same sentiments here!
She was a rare gem, a real artist. Even her album tracks are better than most of the stuff on radio today.
one of the most important songs ever released in my opinion. still blows me away every single time i hear it and this video is just beyond incredible
Amen !! neo- comunismo o muerte !! Venceremos !!
Ugh me too. So epic. Bless her.
This quickly became my favorite video/song. The imagery and power behind the song itself. Chills every time. RIP Sinead.
Fab
Sinead's sometimes brutal honesty has been a major talking point among her critics, but honestly, as a fan, I find it refreshing. The burden is so much easier when you know you're not the only one bearing it.
I am so grateful for this lady's life and art!
She's a Muslim now.
So art I !!!
Exactly!
@@audramacdougall5239so what if she's Muslim? She always loved God, not the people who hurt others in his name
Very wise and appropriate statement. I fully agree.
How have I never heard this? Great song!
I literally broke down crying when she ripped off the wig. What a strong, brave, relevant, beautiful, intelligent human we are watching. Wonderful song, wonderful video. Thank you to all involved.
I did too, Chris!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE. My beautiful Sister Sinead, back in form like never before. And looking so beautiful. No other artist fills my heart with as much love, joy, and gratitude.
Thanks for your comment, Chris! I responded in the same way, too.
Me too. This is my favorite song from Sinead. I think it saved my life. Not kidding. Music ... it heals.
Nice try, Sinéad!
Mr.Kill-Joy, Do you know why Sinéad shaved her head early in her career?
She clearly was struggling so much with her past and faith, they haunted her until the very end. You can notice like so many abused Irish Catholic women, she tried many times to repair her life and take console in Christianity, but no one was helping her, that she totally went 180 and converted to Islam.
This song should punch every church in the world! LOVE! STOP HATE! STOP HURTING PEOPLE!
RIP SINEAD!
She needed Counselling
Perfectly said
why.... why did you go eh? so many of us sare just like you Sinead, you were a voice for some of us no matter what they did you still spoke , loud enough...... we heard you. we still hear you
It was time to go.
My favourite of all of Sinéad’s wonderful songs
I wish she could have embraced this optimistic side of herself.Such a talent.
RIP beautiful lady❤❤❤ this song is so true and real. XO ❤❤❤❤❤
'I'm the only one I should adore'. You wish she could have just believed that lyric. I feel this performance shows her at her very best and really sums up her spirit. What a wonderful, strong, inspiring, warm, funny and troubled soul. I sincerely hope she has found her peace. And perhaps she's somewhere duetting 'All Kinds of Everything' with Terry Hall.
What a beautiful wonderful woman, lost too soon ❤️
This is one of my all time favourites the lyrics the beat everything she was one In a million and will forever be remembered ❤
Sinéad ,
I’m sorry to hear
of the loss
of your beloved son
May you find healing
and comfort.
God Bless
She is the voice and spirit of our broken Gen X Army. Godspeed.
Maybe her most moving song -- but Lord, she had so many...
She looks amazing in PVC, miss ya Sinéad I'm so glad I got to see you live.

Many things make me proud to be Irish…but sinead makes me the proudest. A true punk renegade…ultimate talent
What a beautiful comment! 💖
Awesome! I love this!
Incredible video. It's like a rebirth. She was vital in this one. Rest in peace and in love, dear Sinead. You gave your all. Your truth and your secrets. I don't know what comes after this life, I just hope you are at peace with your boy.
😰😰😰🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Спасибо Вам за эти слова. ❤❤❤
I love her energy in this video. I dont believe in any church but i "get" this song. She's been my fn superhero for 33-34 years. I always wanted to be able to meet her, just to give Sinead a proper hug of complete love..to tell her how inspiring she was for so many girls in their teens back then. I hope now, shes able to really see that from so many of us that always really did understand everything she did.😢
Спасибо за Ваши слова. Я люблю её 33 года, всю сознательую жизнь .
I've been listening to this song lately and can't stop. So much energy in this song. I'm still in shock that you're not with us, Sinead It is unbearably painful to realize this. Rest in peace.🥀🥀🥀💔💔💔
This is one of 5 songs I listened to when I was crying and rolling around on the floor sweating and kicking by myself in my apartment.
She truly helped me when I decided to quit H.
I don't go to church anymore, but I grew up in it, and I remember this feeling - the honesty in this song is profound
Yep, she reminds me of this verse: "Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke?" ~Isaiah 58:6
Amen.
Late career Sinead was always my favourite - and this song? Her very best. Get some peace now, girl x RIP

Discovering Sinead's music after loving her in high school 1988, first three albums I've always played. And there is SO MUCH MORE. Listening to her myriad interviews throughout these years, reading her book. Missing her artistry and she was just a very incredible, smart, loving, and fascinating human being.
Always my favourite song of hers...the lyrics make me cry..RIP you lovely soul, you have earned your peace🙏💕
Rest in peace Sinéad, one of the most beautiful voices to ever grace humanity, I found out about her through massive attack's 100th window and I fell in love ever since
💔💔💔
It’s crazy my old beagle dog has come from a very tumultuous home. She is absolutely terrified by loud noises she shakes all over. It’s New Years Eve right now. I just discovered Sinead O Connor yesterday on her documentary. For some reason only when I play Sinead O Connor’s music my dog stops shaking and calms enough to fall right to sleep. Once the song is over she wakes back up. So I played a Sinead O Connor interview. SAMe thing my dog just stops shaking and calmly falls asleep. I have been dealing with my dogs absolute anxiety attacks on New Years Eve every single year for the last 3 years. I can’t believe it works. Just the sound of Sinead’s voice calms my formerly neglected dog. 💔 Truly a divine force.
Prayers to Sinead who continues to fight more hardships than any human should have to. The death of a child is quite possibly the most devastating thing a human can endure in the universe. May God help you find the peace and strength you need during this troubling time.
❤ well said❤ 🙏
@tristap Incorrect. She has problem with Catholicism, not Christianity. As she should.
RIP Sinéad
@tristap she was never anti-Christian. In order for you to come up with this, you must have anti-Sinead views
@@moehio You're both wrong. She didn't have a problem with Catholicism but rather those within the church who abused their power. She was ordained a priest in a breakaway Catholic branch.
such a powerful song. The start, all the I don’t wants…Love you, miss you, pray for you Sinead.
This makes me cry so hard. I relate so much to the lyrics. I've been working so hard on changing my life and this inspires me so much.
Rodrigo Rivas you can do it Rodrigo, have faith.
Hugs buddy..I can relate to.this song too and it has an emotional connection
How you doing? Hope you healed yourself since posting that comment 4 years ago 🙏🏼💜

It's been one year since you've left our earthly plane, dear Sinéad. Thank you for being you. Thank you so much for your voice. Love you, lady.
This is such a joyful romp, but it always makes me cry.
R.I.P. Sinead O’Connor your music had left many willing to stand and fight against oppression. Thanks
A savage anthemic battle cry of Love. Utterly brilliant.
A terrible beauty!! I love it.
What a woman! Love her, how gorgeous are her legs? I want legs like that.
Amanda Dearing her legs are pretty indeed. Noticed that to

Kim Gloria Sinead is always beautiful, because of who she is. If you're a kind, compassionate person, who cares about other people, you are always beautiful too, Kim Gloria. The weight will come off when you're ready. I'm overweight too, can relate to how you're feeling, but remain mindful that my excess weight does not define me.
Totally agree mate!
RIP Sinead, thank you for you music, you will be missed 😢
Génial merci beaucoup pour la mise en ligne ❤❤
Rest in peace, Sinead ❤.

A Great Talent and a Legend. She always looks like a struggling child to me.
What a heart breaking, yet heart warming. I cry for Sinead every time I hear this beautiful song.
This video and song are on the another plane of life
she really sing her life , her soul, her voice i really so sad and miis her
I miss you so much Sinéad 😢
I heard it yesterday for the first time. She created a fusion between "going to church" and contemporary rythmic music in a way that only a genius could do. My sincere admiration for her.
Your music has been a comfort during the tormenting bouts of insanity and your life was an inspiration which I always strove to imitate during my brief moments of lucidity.
My heart is beyond broken! You paid your dues and the whole world owes you! The world lost its fiercest warrior today. More a man than any man, a great brother in time of need, and a mother/father of the church that was most sorely needed. Thank you for tearing down Popes that needed to be, and thank you for not bowing before any king!
I love you S.O.!
Never been the biggest Sinead fan, but she always brings something special.
And this is great!
Incredible, pure, sensitive, wise, fighting and extraordinary human being. The world kept breaking you since you were a child. But you poured your broken heart and soul over your incredible music, and we are so fortunate to keep that forever. Rest In Peace, angel ❤️🩹🙏🏻
🙌❤✿º°¨¨°⊱♥️º°¨¨°º✿
Спасибо Вам за эти слова ❤❤❤
How I envy people who had a chance to see with their own eyes this great woman with a phenomenally beautiful soul! In my terrible country, she was only once and I did not know about it in advance, I could not come to the capital. Rest in peace, dear Sinead. Nothing compares to you.
Откуда Вы? Я тоже так сожалею, что не увидела ее вживую, а сейчас уже слишком поздно.
I was lucky enough to see Sinead in concert a few times and I can honestly say that she sounded the same live as she does on CD. Best female artist of all time in my opinion. Heartbroken Sinead has gone.
These are some of the most beautiful lyrics I have ever heard.
6/7/2-24 Here again.
This song makes me cry. Religion has wounded so many people.
I am trying to hold onto God, but let the religious poison go. I relate to this song on deep levels.
RIP Sinead. You were a prophetess and ahead of your years. You spoke so much truth.
I hope what came after this hard life is exactly what you deserve, Beautiful Soul.
When the song was released the complaint about was that it was too short and that it just fades. Its outstanding song one of her very best.
I just started to listen to this album. The loss of her son was heartbreaking in 2022. Something she never recovered from. But she did seem in 2014. To be in a happy place. She was no longer writing about her painful and tormented past. She lived 20 mins away from me in bray. She was a very private person. She bought a place in roundwood. Where she wrote her memoir. After she sold her place in bray. Roundwood is a very remote part of wicklow
songs to mend your broken bones.
girl, you've been doing that since always.
thank you.
I absolutely adore this woman's music and everything she stands for. Sinead is a role model with morals and a core of steel. Love you Sinead xx
Crushed it with line after line of truth, delivered PERFECTLY!!
RIP Sinead. What a talent.
Remembering your birthday Sinead. Rest in peace.
Such a loss. Another iconic artist gone,..though never forgotten. Troubled yet talented, honest and beautiful. Thank you Sinead for all you left us with. You will remain in our hearts, music and personality that endures. Peace and happiness in your new world ❤
The most beautiful eyes and the most beautiful voice Slovakia
A powerful message. This amazing artist has stayed true to her values and has never backed down from anything. The music industry has tried to destroy her without success. Yes, she may not be a top pop performer, but she is a true political activist within her music. I also could not believe this was Sinead at first, but I wanted to cheer when she tore her wig off.
Her voice cannot be replicated, so it's her.
If only she'd seen all these comments of love and admiration. An absolute inspiration. Rest in power 🌹
Love is the only Love you shouldn't fight
Oh I fell in love with her when I was only 19...this year I'll be 45 and I have always seen her as strong, beautiful and intelligent! She had a deep Knowing always when so many turned a blind eye! I love and respect her for that - until I pass on!!! Thank You, Sinead!!!
Precisely ❤💞❤💞❤💞❤💞❤💞❤💞🙌❤
This song was released around same time as Hoosier title by the same name but I recently discovered this and it’s so incredible and important !
In an interview, he says she was his biggest inspiration to his craft
This is a song of strength. Of redemption through introspection and acceptance. It is amazingly profound and revealing. Sine ad bares her sound and her pain to show you there is beauty in hope and self forgiveness. She is an angel. A beautiful soul she shares with us despite the toll it takes on her to be so vulnerable. Thank you Sinead. You are my angel, my sister and my inspiration.
A very underrated but powerful and spiritual song from Sinead O'Connor. RIP to such a unique, talented, outspoken, brave artist. May you find everlasting peace that you sought for in this mortal plane. Nothing Compares 2 U 😢⚘
"I've done so many bad things it hurts..."
Rest In Peace Fierce One.
My first day hearing this song. Absolutely fantastic. Such an inspirational woman. May she rest in peace
Omg... She was soooooo beautiful with hair! I'm heart broken that she's left us even more now!
The pain in her eyes/face when she sings, "I've done so many bad things it hurts," is in itself painful to watch.
She was a unique talent, to say the least.
What a transformation. This song is fantastic. Hope Sinead is back for good she's brilliant.
Clari BellaA brilliant song from an artist long misunderstood.
+Clari Bella amazing!
+Clari Bella It's so sad that Sinead is going through so much turmoil in her personal life. She is a great artist. I always fancy her songs.
I feel the same way you do , I started listening to her when I started 5th or 6th grade. Hardcore fan of hers forever. I'm really hoping for another tour, I've never seen her live and I want to so badly.
I know, that was beautiful. So fucking powerful!!!!
WHATTA' Powerhouse............................I miss her so much!
Sinead's music gives me the courage to live authentically.
Sinead is the kind of human who needs a church to feel good about her thinking, her decisions, her visions, etc. I do not understand those people, and it is interesting to watch them extol their fears creatively. She is a phenomenal person in many ways. I wish she did not need so many assurances but she would not be Sinead without the need for them.
She needs faith so do you, it’s not about a building with a cross on top
You missed the song entirely
Sorry to hear your life's been so difficult - as an artist you're absolutely one of a kind and the greatest. Please don't give up.
Mental illness....she's lovely@@Tribbles8011
:(
Seeing a message of support and encouragement like yours is the most wonderful gift.
living with obsessive compulsive disorder is for me, the constant guilt and questioning of my own sanity and morals and worth. i feel so guilty somtimes,just for my thoughts. befor i left you may see my comment about suicidal stuff, but i’m happy and proud to say i whent to a mental hospital for help, and i’m truley forever grateful for the experience. i’m still me. but i’m forever changed. and i have answeres .💕
Shit condition but thoughts aint actions they're just bollocks
God bless the Queen of Ireland!
Love that song actually
Queen of Denmark
The genius of this song is it's directness and truthfulness. You realise she released this song/prayer a little while before she was guided to the religion of Islam... So God responded and Sinead was taken to "church" (and not the one that hurt her, which ain't the Truth).
Check out her interviews about her conversation to Islam. She talks about the second chapter of the Quran and how she realised, when reading it, that she had arrived home.
Oh, take me to church,
I've done so many bad things it hurts
Yeah, Take me to church
But not the ones that hurt
