    8 December 1966 - 26 July 2023
    An outstanding (1991) cover version of 'Sacrifice' by Sinead O'Connor, one of best known masterpieces of Elton John & Bernie Taupin - 1989
    The song is beloved by both Elton John and Bernie Taupin and deemed a bookend of sorts to their first hit "Your Song". Bernie has said he is surprised he wrote it, and said in an interview, "I think 'Sacrifice' is one of the best songs we've written." The song is not a typical love song, but rather a song about a breakup of a marriage where the loss of the relationship is "no sacrifice." Taupin was going through marital problems at the time, which served as inspiration for the song.

    Absolutely stunning. Sinead makes every song she sings her own. Her version of 'Streets of London' is also stunning. Heartbroken Sinead has gone.

    Best cover ever of Elton John's Sacrifice. The additional lyric "I gave my heart" at the end of the song never fail to rip my heart to pieces and bring tears to my eyes. Rest in peace Sinead. Innalillah hi wainna ilaihirajiun. Semoga roh beliau ditempatkan di makam yang terpuji bersama orang-orang yang soleh. Al-Fatihah.

    It's like she's singing this from the other persons pov. Where one side doesn't see hurting others as a sacrifice and the other is left with the aftermath and feeling/believing they were sacrificed after giving their all.
    Sinead, you did this song justice. You beautiful siren of the Irish ❤

Plus a true fighter for womens rights in ireland. She was also a true rebel just like me. My uncle harry is buried in Bray where sinead lived part of her life. Loved her so much. RIP. Gorgeous girl.

    • @miketodd185
      @miketodd185 Рік тому +6

      I think she was referring to the abuse that lives in the church and how it’s over looked. “Stunt”… Hmm… I think it was her speaking the truth maybe not in the way she wanted to entirely, but had like 30 seconds on live tv. So it was misunderstood by most till she was later able to speak on it fully. She was ahead of her time and was trying to bring light to a sore subject. If it would have been done in this decade she would have been considered a Hero…

    • @dawnburke2756

      Brave & she spoke the truth - I remember looking at her on Irish tv that particular night when she ripped up the pope’s picture - it was shocking but fantastic - the corruption-of the Irish catholic church they also brainwashed us all here in Ireland - it was shocking - so on that note I have nothing but admiration fir Sinead - she saw & knows what we all had to put up with in Ireland back then . -
