Kris' song "Sister Sinead" (1:25) from his new album
"Closer to the bone"
www.newwestreco...
I thought the video needed some prologue to see what mess she actually was in to understand what Kris sings about.
She was waiting really patiently for the audience to be quiet and ready to listen to her song - the first part of the vid is uncut.
The tribute show (Oct 1992) had started very well, but then ended up in deep awkwardness...
Where had the audience's spirit gone???
Here's a link to the video of Sinead's performance
• Sinead O'Connor - Bob ...
The incident that was followed by a huge media excitement was the following:
In thas SNL show two weeks before she was a musical guest. She was singing an a cappella version of Bob Marley's "War," which she intended as a protest against permanent cases of sexual abuse in the Roman Catholic Church and its denial by them, by changing the lyric "racism" to "child abuse". She then presented a photo of the Pope to the camera while singing the word "evil," after which she tore the photo into pieces, said "Fight the real enemy," and threw the pieces towards the camera.
Kris later said in an interview, "...A stage manager came up to me because I was one of the MCs and said, 'Get her off the stage.' I was so pissed off... I wasn't about to tell her to get off the stage so I walked out and said to her, 'Don't let the bastards get you down", and she replied, 'I'm not down.' She's such a good example of good intentions that just get you into trouble. She's talking about human rights, and she's not a bad guy; the bad guys are the guys who are against human rights."
Sinead was scheduled to sing a Bob Dylan song at the tribute, but wasn't able to start it... so, after these long minutes of waiting for quiet, she screamed over the audience with an improvised, shouted rendition of "War". This time, she sang the song, stopping just after the part in which the lyrics talk about child abuse, emphasizing the point of her previous action.
Willie also looked pretty pissed off...
Kris sang a wonderful version of Dylan's song "I'll be your baby tonight" at this tribute show, but his performance is NOT on that concert DVD (Why not???)
You can find Sinead O'Connor's song "War" on YT.
In 1997, Sinead O'Connor was interviewed in "Vita", an Italian weekly newspaper. In the interview, she asked the Pope to forgive her. She claimed that the tearing of the photo was "a ridiculous act, the gesture of a girl rebel." She claimed she did it "because I was in rebellion against the faith, but I was still within the faith." She went on to quote Saint Augustine, by saying, "Anger is the first step towards courage." However, she remained unrepentant about the incident, and when asked if she would change anything about her SNL appearance, she replied, "Hell, no!"
SISTER SINEAD
Ich sing dieses Lied für meine Schwester Sinead
bezüglich des Gottes-schlimmen Durcheinanders,
das sie verursacht hat
als sie ihnen ihre Wahrheit erzählte
so gut sie das konnte.
Ihre Nachricht wurde jedoch völlig missverstanden.
Da gibt es Menschen, denen die Bewachung unseres Goldes anvertraut wird,
und Menschen in der Verantwortung,
Seelen zu retten.
Und Menschen reagierten in der ganzen Welt
und verdammten dieses mutige
glatzköpfige junge Mädchen.
Und vielleicht ist sie verrückt und vielleicht ist sie's nicht,
aber das waren auch Picasso und auch die Heiligen
Sie hat nie eine Vorliebe gehabt für Zwänge oder Ketten,
Sie ist zu alt um gebrochen und zu jung um gezähmt zu werden.
Seinen Hals zu strecken heißt um Ärger zu bitten,
wenn das Ziel eine große Silhouette ist.
Aber einige Kerzen flackern,
und manche gehen aus,
Und manche brennen so wahr
wie meine Schwester Sinead.
Bei einem Auftritt am 3. Oktober 1992 in einer Sendung von Saturday Night Live zerriss Sinead O'Connor vor laufenden Kameras ein Bild von Papst Johannes Paul II. im amerikanischen Fernsehen. Bei diesem Auftritt sang sie Bob Marleys Lied "War", ersetzte jedoch das Wort 'racism' durch 'child abuse'. Sie wollte damit gegen die ihrer Meinung nach ständige Leugnung von Kindesmissbrauchsfällen in der katholischen Kirche protestierten...
Aufgrund der darauf folgenden gesellschaftlichen Anfeindungen zog sie sich für einige Zeit aus dem Musikgeschäft zurück.
The irony of people, who think they know what Dylan was singing about, booing a singer who was brave enough to expose the powerful.
Exactly
She was silenced and canceled before there was such a thing
A protest singer booed at a concert celebrating a protest singer. Intelligent crowd, eh?
A lot of low IQ inbred idiots. Shame on them all.
Dylan exposed himself, nothing more
She should have sang. I would like to see her defying the public
She did sing War
@@moc2034 oh, I didn't find it. Will search!!!
Yes she did sing. !
She waited and waited for the noise to stop ,
Then I think pulled out her earphones and , I stead of singing a Dylan as she planned, sang again WAR, but so very loud and strong it nearly was shouting and the only time I have ever heard her not 100% melodious.
AMAZING COURAGE
Has that version of "War" survived? I've never heard it or seen any clips of it.
What a distubed Soul this LADY was,I Hope she's found the peace she was seeking RIP. Princesse 🍻💚👍☘️🫶🇮🇪🤠.
Disturbed? What? No the audience booing her was disturbing, dip-shit.
Don't let the bastards get your down, Sinead. RIP
But those 'bastards' are normal.
What a man!! Kris is and always will be a legend. His humbleness and his truth are why I have loved him since forever. I just recently heard this song he wrote for Sinead and like all his other songs, pure truth and honesty. Love Kris 4ever
RIP Sinead, you're home 😊
And a farewell to Kris, too.
Wonderful song by a wonderful composer-performer about a wonderfully brave singer. And thanks for the context.
Kris was a true gentleman.
RIP Sinead O’Connor 💚🇮🇪
🥹indeed
Kris Kristofferson is a true folk star and gentleman.
Let’s not forget a Rhodes Scholar as well.
RESPECT/LOVE...........THIS IS INTEGRITY!!!...True to one's belief...true to her understand of truth...
This is Sinead O'Connor...She spoke her truth...Truth today that has been proven correct!....Many do not like ugly "truths"...Sinead never abused another.....Abuse may have served her life on earth, however, never in our greatest higher ground ....Love you Sinead, may your lyrics from an artist be served today for those unconscious minds....RIP sweet voice ...the angle of truth!
I wonder if any of those booing ever opened their eyes to the clear truth.
Great question
R.I.p. Sinead .... one of the greatest .... ur free now ..fly away ...be with Shane again ...😢😢
Love you Kris Kristofferson ❤. Love Bob Dylan x Love Sinead O'Connor ❤😢. Don't boo her. She speaks from the HEART ❤
Some people walk the walk, while others just talk.
Kris was the only friend that Sinead ever had. Thank you, Kris!!
Yes kris was a marvel
Willy Nelson was great friends with her too...
Rest in peace and love beautiful fighter ❤🎉
Two of the wolds great artists that suffered the slings and arrows
With the vision to read what was happening was wrong
And to this day we’re right respect to kris to be able to help an innocent soul
And do the right thing. While others hid away❤❤
Her eyes are so beautiful❤
THIS IS WHAT WE DO! This is how we stand up against what’s corrupt what’s evil and what we cannot stand for. She walked in the face of the devil and spit in it! She was courageous and solid. She should be inspiration to humanity!
Kristopherson is a man with heart and soul. Love him!
☘️💜☘️ Blood of Irish Rebels runs through her veins ☘️💜☘️
Rest In Power Warrior Queen ❤

Thank you for posting this. I knew about the incident, but it wasnt apparent how strong the initial cheering was for her was in precious youtube uploads i saw.
RIP steong one. I suspect you never knew how much uou were loved and reapected before now.
The crowd was Booing, not cheering. The cheers were for Bob Dylan's night.
That was wrong that they did that to her. Shameful. Great for Kris.

Crying Like A Baby!!!! Love/Peace XO
Sie ist mir immer ein bisschen auf die Nerven gegangen, mit dem Titel "nothing compares to U"
Liegt wohl daran, dass ich nicht gut Englisch kann und den Text nicht verstanden hab 😏!
Ich konnte den Titel aber irgendwann nicht mehr hören, und fühlte mich quasi erschlagen davon!
Von allen Seiten tönte dieses Lied!
Ich empfand es damals als regelrechtes Gejaule! Sry!!!
Jetzt, wo sie gestorben ist, lese ich, was für eine außerordentliche Persönlichkeit sie war/hatte❣️
Wow, sie war so mutig und unangepasst❣️
Das ist so selten auf dieser Welt!
Auch das Zerreißen des Papst Bildes vor laufender Kamera - absolut bewundernswert!!!
Das hätte Respekt verdient !!!
Damals waren die Menschen wohl aber nicht so weit, wie sie selbst?!
Sie, die anscheinend sehr feinfühlig und sensibel für alles Unrecht war!
Sie ist sich immer treu geblieben, hat sich nie verbiegen lassen!
Das alleine ist in diesem harten Geschäft absolut erstaunlich!!!
Das hat der Star-Branche nicht gepasst und anscheinend haben die Fans auch nicht wirklich verstanden, was sie eigentlich mit alldem meinte!
Sie hatte ein schweres Leben, wohl in jeder Beziehung!
Ehrliche und gute Menschen haben meistens ein schweres Leben!
Sie ist sicherlich nicht umsonst gestorben 😔!
Und wird hoffentlich ihren Fans durch ihre außerordentliche Persönlichkeit und ihre Musik in ewiger Erinnerung bleiben ❤️!!!
Das wär ihr so zu wünschen!!!
Mögen Sie in Frieden ruhen🙏:
Sinead O' Connor
🌹🕯️❤️!
Elle ne sera jamais oubliée elle m'accompagne tous les jours, je pense à elle ,Sinéad je t'aime ❤❤❤
RIP Kris. You were the best of us.
This is how I learned about Kris
❤
Beautiful
I’m probably being totally dumb, can someone help explain? Who wrote Sister Sinead? Who sang it on the video? Was it playing live on stage, or just an audio overlay on top of the video? Does it relate to her ripping up the picture of the Pope due to his failure to tackle child sexual abuse?
Kristoferson is the writer of the song and he was the man who embraced her the time when she was boed, ironically in a concert about Dylan, after she denounced the child abuses by the church, something we know now that occurred for sure.
@@larryperezviveros564 Thanks man, appreciate it
She was also booed for refusing to play the US national anthem before her concerts here. Ridiculous in hindsight but it shows you the mindless, empty "patriots" were around even then.
Not dumb at all. 👍👍🤗
@@RealBradMiller Thanks man.
one v:s ? 20 k?
Formidable Sinead
How shall one know genius?
The.confedaracy of dunces against it...
(Doh?! Goethe?!)
Well done to Willie Nelson the wouldn't even look at Bob Dillon and of course Chris Christophers... Willie Nelson was a lovely sing out with Sinèad O'Connor...
Woke💚🔥🙏 🫶
❤️🙏🏻🕊🌿🌻🕯️🪶🎼💔
THAT WAS TERIBLE SHE BELIEVED IN WHAT SHE SAID, HAS ANYBODY PROVED THERE WAS A GOD YET RELIGION NO MATTER WHAT COUNTRY HAS A LOT TO ANSWER FOR
💔💔💔
💙💙🪐
wow. 😢
Nice, did YT unblock the original upload?
it seems they have 😊
WHY were they booing her ?
Some people are crazy, but those are just stupid... dumb and narrow minded... they don't have any ability for understanding ...
poor Sinead... RIP
Why did they boo her?
Because they're Of oxygen
This was just after the SNL Pope picture incident. Some booed some cheered.
Because people are idiots and sexist. She had stood up to something she felt strongly about concerning the Catholic church. The media used her protest to make her into an easy scapegoat.
For exposing the pedophilia going on in the Catholic church before people knew it was happening
Whats the story?
