What a sad, beautiful song. What a voice! You're right, Diane, we lost a beautiful soul. I'll never forget her tearing up a picture of the Pope on Saturday Night Live in the 90s. She took a lot of abuse for being right.
American didn't know about the mass child abuse going on within the church. The Irish knew about it but they didn't talk about it. It a brave soul to stand up like Sinead and say to the World what is going on.
@saoirsepaddy do they have definitely known as of about ten or fifteen years now. Before that, I would say that people who are Catholic or connected to the church new, but kept it hush-hush. I have charted a Catholic institution, and I would say that I knew a lot of people who probably were much like the priest in Boyke's novel, if you've read that. Wondering, looking back, if they'd been complicit
@@LindaC616 You don't know what goes on behind close doors with your friendly Priests Nope didn't read Boyke's novel 's to busy read Rudolf Steiner , Chinese Philosophy , James Joyce, William Butler Yeats,1984 George Orwell & Brave New World Novel by Aldous Huxley
That SNL performance was brilliant protest. A total mic drop. My siblings and I used to be Catholic. Luckily we didn't have predator priests. But I'm proudly secular. But I admire Sinead's religious journey. And I will eventually remember her Muslim name, which was her name when she passed. She lives in me forever ❤️💪🎤🕊️⚖️
I don't think Sinead was troubled... I think she lived in a very troubled world and she was just such a beautiful soul the troubles of this world were too much for her to take, the death of her son especially did her in... but I don't believe she personally had demons... I think the world were the demons and she had to battle them. SHe was very sane in a very insane world. She was put here by God's design obviously to teach us things.... she was a very unique and wonderful creation of God and now she is home with him finally and the trouble of the world is gone for her. Her interpretation of "Trouble of the world" is excellent because she felt everything she says, just like always.... you can see she feels everything deeply, even the violin... the way she uses her body to express the notes.... everything about her is just gorgeous... gorgeous person....
Sinead was literally the music and soundtrackof my early adulthood. I listened to her first few albums literally non-stop. Nothing Compares to You brought her fame she was very uncomfortable with and never came to grips with, as she always viewed herself as a punk and a protest singer and she wanted to stay true to that goal and not change into a commercial artist, and slave to the music industry. It is true that her songs, with the exception of Nothing Compares 2 U, were not designed for commercial success but just designed for Sinead to express herself and her pain and life experiences were really her best songs. Listen to anything off The Lion and the Cobra. Google the top ten songs by Sinead and listen to them. Every song she ever sand she did so in an amazing and distinctive way. her voice was unearthly, very few will ever match her purity of soul and spirit, in my opinion The world is much the poorer for her loss but much the richer that she was here at all. If anything good can come from her death it would be that people listen to her music again, with an open-mindedness they never had for her talent when she was alive.
I remember her from back in the day and her amazing voice and energy. I only recently heard her song "Thank You" which makes me cry ever time I hear it. So honest and beautiful. I try not to be sad about what we've lost, rather be thankful for the wonderful gifts she gave us all. Thank you Sinead and thank you Diane. ✨🌟✨
Thank you so much for playing it and that live performance. I remember that song from when it first came out. It was a difficult time for me personally, a lot was getting re-aligned in ways that were both painful and transformational. I think Sinead was a provider of songs as prophecy and insight, not a performer in the common sense. I expect her live concerts were each uniquely different from the rest.
Sinead open's the song with the first half of the Serenity Prayer, which I have spoken many times. It is devastating that Sinead could not find solace and peace in life. So much pain, so much tragedy. I will greatly miss the artist, the person, the parent who has left this world. Peace and love.
This is one of my favorite songs of hers. Jaysus, she and The Cranberries were my soundtrack in the early '90's. Now both Delores and Sinead are gone, and to be honest, I'm not over either loss.
Watched an excellent movie in the 90s called" In the Name of the Father" staring Daniel Day-Lewis about police injustice on an Irish citizen in Britain .During the credits there was a wonderful song sung by Sinead O'Conner called "You Made Me the Thief of Your Heart" It's a dark song ,but its also beautiful and very Irish and she is amazing.
The most beautiful song of hers is relatively unknown and I don't know why. Its on a movie soundtrack, and the song is called HEROINE, as in female hero. The movie is called CAPTIVE and U2s guitarist THE EDGE and their drummer LARRY MULLINS wrote the score and songs for that movie's soundtrack. Sinead was 16 and she sang the HEROINE song as the U2 fellas played the instruments. It's not just a beautiful song, it's one of THE MOST beautiful songs I know. I listen to it often, as well as a few other songs from the soundtrack. Highly recommended. It's on youtube.
So sad that those eyes that could stare into your soul have closed forever, and her beautifully unique and haunting voice has been silenced. May she be with her son and they both have finally found peace
Brings new meaning to the words of Eckhart Tolle- consciousness witnessing itself. Watching you watch her with mouth slightly a wide it appeared there wasn’t any thought just pure delight of consciousness seeing itself manifest thru form🙏🏻
I can only imagine the duets between Sinead and Dolores O'Riordan (RIP to two powerhouse musicians). The emotions that either could draw out of you with just a lyric... Great selection Diane. 💚
Sinead did a duet with Dolores of one of O'Riordan's songs & I believe it was posted to Sinead's Facebook page back in January. Someone has put on TH-cam. Do a search of their names plus the song title 'No Time to Argue'. It's exceptional & heart wrenching as both singers are now both deceased
@@DianeJennings Diane , Your a troubled soul posting clickbaits. Connor had alot of courage to expose & leave the catholic culture which she paid a big price !
Sinead O'Connor is very poetic in the her songs of the journey to finding joy in discovery of experiencing life. Happiness in self is the greatest gift one can have to bring joy to others on their journey too.
Always loved her! Flew to Chicago to see her she was an hour and a half late then played for 30 minutes really left a bad taste in my mouth but still love her
Thank you for sharing this video with us Diane! You feel it when a national icon passes away, especially since in this case Sinead was at a relatively young age. She possessed a beautiful voice and profound lyrics. Like yourself, I had not heard this song before. Take care.
Sinéad did a duet with Brian McFadden for his album *The Irish Connection* . They sang _Black Is The Color_ . There vocals blend haunting well together. It’s worth a listen.
Listen morissette amon. His voice is compared to... You will figure it out for yourself. You will be shocked by her voice, as she sings live on the seated radio, on the Wish 107.5 Fm radio station. Never Enough 52 million, Rise up removed for copyright had more views than the original, secret love song 211 million, akin ka na Lang its original in Tagalog with 166 million views. I'm already making popcorn, for when I see your reaction. 😉🤭
I was very impressed with the respect you accorded Sinead in this reaction, I very much enjoy your bubbliness and tongue in cheek reactions but there is a time and a place for everything and I feel you got this one right. Kris Kristofferson remarked that Sinead was sent to us to look after our soul. She was very poorly used by some of the gobshites in this country. She was diminutive in stature, massive in talent and gigantic in heart.
I can't believe I'm suggesting Sinéad songs to an Irish but hey! 😅Please make sure to listen to these: "Jealous", "John I love you", "Empire", "Scorn not his simplicity" (you're gonna cry on that one), her version of ABBA's "Chiquitita"... There are many others... And the complete Gospel Oak EP, for me her masterpiece and the music that dreams are made of. Best wishes from Argentina
Happy Wednesday to you Diane. I felt sad when I had heard about Sinead O'Connor's death. Her voice was magnificent. Thanks for sharing this with us. Hope that you're doing well. Have a great rest of your week! Be well. 👋😎
You nailed it. She never wanted to be a pop star. She wanted to stay in the alternative and post punk realm which has so many different styles under the umbrella. Singing was her way of therapy not for fame. You will find manu great songs on The Lion and the Cobra. It is a masterpiece
This is the first time I've heard of her. I'll definitely have to check out more of her music. Sorry to hear that she's passed. Looks like she was just a bit younger than my parents.
Sinead O'Connor represents Ireland really well. She's has so much heart in her voice and body language of her songs. This was also my first time hearing feels so different. I enjoyed your reaction and learning what the song was about with You. Thanks for making the Wednesday joyful with good reaction musical vibes. 🎤🇮🇪🍀😊
She definitely had a beautiful voice and soul. I loved her music. Many great songs, but I recommend "Red Football" and "Fire on Babylon" from Universal Mother. That whole album is fantastic. You looked mesmerised, which is appropriate. She had that effect.
It is undoubtedly true that Sinead had great talent as a singer. As soon as I heard of her passing, though, I thought: "Sweet. Now it's going to be Sinead this and that for at least 30 days." I think she would not have wanted her death to be a distraction from the terror that we all could perish soon in a nuclear war. Yet there is the artist and there is the person and, Diane, you know what I'm saying? Joy is in the ear of the hearer. Rest in peace Sinead.
Yes, she had a beautiful voice, but at least as important (in my opinion) is that she had things to say. She had a traumatic childhood, strong beliefs, and a will that chafed against restriction. She didn't care whether she pissed people off, which is one reason she didn't reach the level of financial success of equally talented contemporaries. But that same insistence on telling her own truth is what attracted a lot of people to her.
I remember when she was asked if she regretted tearing up the photo of the pope on SNL and ruining her career and she said I never ruined my career I my have stopped a record exec from buying a new mansion but I never ruined my career she had morals. And when the abuse of the catholic church was uncovered she was rightly exalted for her stand RIP Sinead go be with Shane x
Sinéad O’Connor was a true individual. She though for herself and was not afraid to voice her own opinion, When it was not a popular one. The powers that be; could not handle that so they shunned and tried to destroy her. Rest easy Sinéad.
So sad, we lost a beautiful voice and a radiant though troubled soul. Thank you for this, Diane. I'm still mourning the loss of Dolores O'Riordan from a few years ago. I'm kinda glad you did not become a famous Irish singer.
I wasn’t really into her usual pop stuff but was impressed with a lot of traditional songs she song after hearing her sing factory girl of The Chieftains Tears of Stone Album I believe the song was Factory Girl that album was full of women mostly Irish sing songs that had some tie to feminist issues the octave range she had was impressive to say the least. She definitely had a troubled life though. Thanks for taking the time to honour her Diane
She's a beautiful soul, may she Rest in peace in the highest heavens, And May Allah SWT forgive us and her of any or all wrongs we've done whether willingly or whilst unaware, ameen
Sinead definitely felt music as a extension of herself and her life experiences with raw emotion.Enya is a bit more straight with the singing,but listen to her accompaniments,especially on "Orinoco Flow(Sail Away)",which was a huge hit.Her albums sold millions,which is surprising for a world music singer.
What can I say that you haven't already said. I never had a problem with her talent, "Nothing Compares 2 U" has been living rent free in my head since its debut, but like you, I didn't always agree with her views. Maybe it's projection, but it appears to me that the incredible passion that she is able to convey in her music comes from a place of pain. She can finally rest. A song you probably know that I like, but you can understand is Sinead O'Connor - "Oro Se do Bheatha Bhaile". It's on TH-cam. Also, if you can find "Nothing Compares 2 U" acapella, it's really exceptional. Not necessarily for a video, I just thought you might like them.
I never realized how incredibly beautiful she was because her voice and her persona were so overwhelming you forgot you were looking at an angel.
What a sad, beautiful song. What a voice! You're right, Diane, we lost a beautiful soul. I'll never forget her tearing up a picture of the Pope on Saturday Night Live in the 90s. She took a lot of abuse for being right.

“Fire on Babylon” is my favorite of hers. “The Lion and the Cobra” was in regular rotation among my college albums. RIP Sinead.
I was introduced to Sinead via her song "Troy". A complete different style than we were used to.
A human gifted with a voice like the most beautiful instrument imaginable, and a soul far too troubled to endure.
Beautifully put
I don't think Sinead was troubled...

An immense talent, and, the first person brave enough to call the Roman church out for it's corruption & abuses.
And she paid for that, sadly
She was a trouble maker. I hope for her sake she confessed her sins and begged GOD for forgiveness.
@@batmanforpresident9655 trouble maker? I would say the people who victimized her and covered it up were the trouble makers
All her songs she sang with full emotions ❤
This entire concert is a masterpiece.

Her version of "I Am Stretched on Your Grave" is fantastic -- I especially like the studio/album version.
I love your perceptive videos. You have got Sinead exactly right. The World is a less beautiful place without her in it. RIP
Her voice is absolutely gorgeous.
My favorite song of hers is "This is a Rebel Song". Another great one is when she & Peter Gabriel sang together "Blood of Eden".
A true talent. I know many people including myself will miss her very much. 😢
She is such a beautiful soul! ❤❤❤ her music is fire and truth!!
Heart on both sleeves. She was what she sang. Incredible, she just was. This one hurts pretty bad. Thank u! Great reaction.

Sinead with The Chieftains playing "Foggy Dew"
She was equally talented and troubled.
It is undoubtedly true that Sinead had great talent as a singer.
As soon as I heard of her passing, though, I thought: "Sweet. Now it's going to be Sinead this and that for at least 30 days." I think she would not have wanted her death to be a distraction from the terror that we all could perish soon in a nuclear war.

I'm an Enya fan myself, but Sinead was still a good singer -- R.I.P.

Never say never 😉
It's been a tough year for music. In Canada, we have seen the passing of Gordon Lightfoot and Robbie Robertson.
I'd love to see your reaction to Sinead O'Connor's performance with The Chieftains of Foggy Dew. It makes me cry every time and I'm not even Irish.

Great Analysis Diane. Creativity and Performance gave Sinead OConnor a release from a very traumatic upbringing. She will be sadly missed. RIP
There's so many of her songs I would suggest. I don't know where to start.
Oh, what is to be done? At least we still have Diane.

Maybe it's projection, but it appears to me that the incredible passion that she is able to convey in her music comes from a place of pain. She can finally rest. A song you probably know that I like, but you can understand is Sinead O'Connor - "Oro Se do Bheatha Bhaile". It's on TH-cam. Also, if you can find "Nothing Compares 2 U" acapella, it's really exceptional. Not necessarily for a video, I just thought you might like them.
I am not a fan of O’Connor but she did a really good job with Pink Floyds song “mother” at the Berlin Wall with Roger Waters.
