Stay tuned to a reaction to John's fave Sinead song. Rest in peace. Lulu's Fantasy Show: linktr.ee/cluelesslulu John X Lulu Wicked Fun: linktr.ee/johnxlulu
Prince was born to write this song but Sinead was born to sing it!! Its so powerful her version. She meant every word everytime she sang it! RIP LEGEND!!!❤😢
We’re used to such slick and heavily produced music videos. Yet here is one of the most famously captivating videos of all time, so simple, comprised primarily of a close-up of her beautifully expressive and powerfully honest face, laying bare all the heartfelt emotion she carried within. Just devastating. I think you guys really hit on what made her so compelling: beyond sheer talent, she was a mix of strength and vulnerability. No matter how much trauma her activism-and the overwhelmingly hateful reactions to it-inflicted upon her sensitive soul , she just could not deny the truth of her deeply-ingrained moral compass and her determination to do what was right, however costly that turned out to be. Simply put, she was brave as hell. I think that’s one of the reasons she was such a incredible artist-that, and the passionate sincerity of all she did . RIP, beautiful soul. Ye ne’er shall be forgot.
Looks like John can really feel the emotions. I get tears in my eyes everytime I see the video. Not just since Sinead's passing but it always affected me. R.I.P.
This song and video have moved me to tears more than once over the years. I was unaware of her son I can’t imagine how heartbreaking that must have been for her 😢❤
Thank you for the tribute...Sinead was so brave and never wavered....always admired her!!! She's also one of my favorite artists ever!!!!!!! RIP Sinead ❤
She's gorgeous ! Gutted hearing of her passing few days ago. I remember when she released this song in 1990, and it was no1 in the UK charts for many weeks. I listened to this hundreds of times through out the years.
Sinead was someone who refused to be packaged for the marketplace. She kept her hair short often as it relates to her abusive mother making her and her sister cut their hair off. She wouldn't wear short skirts like the record executives wanted her to. She was a born rebel and she is how she lived. She was paradoxically vulnerable and strong as steel. I will always love her.
I love her version of this song it is more heartfelt especially because she was pouring out her feeling toward her abusive mom after she passed away. This is why Sinead fought hard to put on blast Child Abusers (Her dad also had part in her abuse). She had such a horrible childhood in the hands of very abusive parents. RIP Sweet Angel 😥🙏🦋♥
I had this on 12" single and played it over and over again. One of the most incredible performances I had ever heard at the time. RIP Sinead, you will be missed very much. ❤
Prince physically abused Sinead. Sinead's mother psychologically abused her. She grew up in a divided Ireland. She exposed the child abuse of Catholic alter boys LIVE on Saturday Nigh Live Ripping up a picture of the Pope. She was shunned by the industry for speaking the truth. And still she overcame to be one of the greatest singers in our time. Sinead you will be missed and remembered forever. Respect.
I EMPHATICALLY IMPLORE you listen to her version of Sacrifice by Elton John. It is absolutely stunning. She was a warrior. An absolutely stunning human being in every way. I hope she’s found the peace she always longed for in life. Rest in peace, warrior. We will love you forever. ❤️🕊️
Madonna did NOT mock Sinead. Madonna was trying to show that the act Sinead did was not deserving of all the hate she got. That it was ridiculous people sought to attack Sinead instead of think about what she was stating. Madonna time and again praised Sinead for her bravery and strength. Also stating she was enamored with her voice. The moment on SNL was not mainly about the church’s abuse of children. It was about its overall lies and misdeeds to and on varying issues. MAINLY a woman’s right to choose.
I was unaware of that. I didn’t think that was cool that Madonna said she looked like she was ran over by a lawnmower, and Boring like Venetian blinds.
I think you should know more about this amazing woman. please look into it more. I'm very Thankful for you talking about our hell and bringing it here. By the way I'm her age and from Ireland and she was the bee's knee's xx
Lovely tribute. I was going to mention the vulnerability too. One thing I love about the way she sang this was the dynamic range she used. I don't know that I've ever heard another singer do that to the extent that she did.
I love how music connects people from different cultures. Sinead was definitely a connector. Her music continues to work its magic in melting hearts, tearing down walls and building bridges. Rest in peace, Sinead O’ Connor.
No, it didn`t take a long time for her `career`to bounce back. Her fans NEVER left her. If you want to see HER response towards all the haters of Truth.. watch her Next performance.. the one AFTER she tore that picture up. She was set to perform at Bob Dylans Tribute Concert at Madison Square Gardens, in NYC. When it was her turn, she was boo-ed MERCILESLY. Her response is THE SINGLE MOST BADASS response towards something like that. Truly epic. When you see her heaving afterwards, she`s not `losing it`. She`s ridding herself of the toxicity of the crowd that only showed her hatred. That`s THE performance of Sinead O`Connors career. *FIGHT THE REAL ENEMY!*
Um, yeah it did sweetie. If you think a few loyal fans and an indie following is the same career course she had before she ripped up the picture of the Pope then you're delusional
21 when this came out was into rock, I was young male and never thought much about pop , I heard this and thought wow that's a voice, rip beautiful one.
She looked so happy in her final video- the tour of her new home. We all know mental health can envelope you even in your happiest times. Just so much tragedy in her life- imagine losing your youngest child from suicide. Beautiful voice, beautiful woman. Rest in peace, I pray you're in a happier place full of only love now. You're gonna be missed so, so, so much.
Beautiful, incredibly talented, brave, and a fearless truth-teller. She went up against the Catholic Church and paid the price. But it paved the way for victims of the Catholic Church's abuses to get justice. God bless her warrior soul.
I just read her autobiography and I have so much respect for her. She grew up in an extremely abusive home, both physically and emotionally. Ireland at that time was very oppressive and the Catholic church was very powerful and no one questioned nor spoke out in public against it. That photo of the Pope belonged to her deceased mother and it was in my opinion, ripping it was symbolic of her protest against the power of the Catholic church, including the sexual abuse of children, and the hold that her mother had over her. She stated in her book that when she sings this song, she thinks of her mother, and that is probably why she left the word "mama" in the song. She both loathed and loved her abusive mother. She refused to fit the mold of "pop star" and stayed true to herself even when it derailed her career. Her music was her voice and was not a means to fame and fortune. She stayed true to herself and was so ahead of the time. It's heartbreaking that she is is gone far too soon.
As a Child in Northern Ireland! She saw more than any child should see! a generation of mistrust frustration and resentment !! Remains till this Day! Can't blame the Desived! Blame the Desivers!!!
Prince wrote and performed this song but never released it, he then created a group called The Family and he gave them the song to put on their debut album. The Family now go by the name fDeluxe and when Prince died they redid the song in honor of him. So can you please do a reaction to fDeluxe Nothing Compares 2 U?
She was emotionally and physically abused by her mother and the nuns at the boarding school she was sent to. Her son comitted suicide. Sinead had an extremely difficult life and you can hear the pain in her voice
She was probably the first public figure to denounce the culture of child sexual harassment in the Catholic Church. It's very difficult to believe that she would know about this, without having experienced it. It's the Church that made her vulnerable. Vulnerability is an implanted thing, not a personality traits.
R.I.P. 🖤 Icon...i grow up in the 90's she was an idol and had many issues and the one shot it was her idea...her version is georgies...better then prince sorry
I remember that SNL appearance. I found out later that the problem with Catholic priests ab*sing children was known about in Ireland quite a bit earlier than it was known in the US.
She searched for the Truth and the Truth found her instead, she warned the world about Child abuse in the Church and the world destroyed her career until she was proven 💯 % Right. May Allah Grant this beautiful soal Paradis 🎉
Please read about her childhood.. it was horrendous, her mother was extremely abusive in every form 😢 it might help you get some insight into her believes
R.I.P., she will be missed, I don't know if you guys noticed but in one of the last parts she had tears rolling down her cheeks, don't know it that was intentional or that it had a different meaning.
Her mother had recently died when she recorded this - she had a troubled history with her mother - she remembers her in the song when she sings about her mothers flowers in the backyard and sheds a tear....! - all recorded in a single take...!
Sevgili Sadakat; Bu kadar güzel bir dini ve ismi seçtikten sonra bu şekilde gitmen çok daha acı veriyor.Bir annenin çocuğuna duyduğu aşkı çok iyi anlıyorum...Onlarsız bir hayatı düşünemiyoruz biz anneler.Sesin,şarkıların,görünüşün,eylemlerin seni hep sevdirdi bana.Bu gidişin içimi parçalasa da affedilip oğlunla birlikte olman için dua ediyorum🤲 Güle güle Sadakat😢
It may have been the song that prince wrote,but he handed it to her,and she tweaked the lyrics to how she wanted it to be.Absolutely amazing,I’m hearing it played more and more since she passed and I’m still mesmerised by her rendition.Forever in our hearts Sinead.xx
True, in the sense that he wrote it. He recorded it in 1985, with his side band, The Family. But he was never able to make it a successful hit, on his own. In 1990, Sinead made it a worldwide HIT. She is the only reason anyone has ever heard of this song. Props & respect where they are due. RIP Sinead. Brave-Rebel-Legend
I don't know how or why she died,but i now she had some kind of mental health problems 😪Her number one hit(nothing compares to your was written by Prince.A trubled soul😔

Our Sinéad. A very misunderstood woman. Her book is amazing. Rest in peace you Legend! ❤
🇮🇪
weren't you (IE) the ones who "cancelled" her@@onlyiforgive5083
She's an amazing singer and activist she stood up for the children when no one else would. R.I.P. Sinead ❤
I saw Sinead live in London in 2013. She was absolutely captivating, but she really looked like she needed a hug and help. RIP Shuhada' Sadaqat

*That song actually won the award for the best song worldwide by Billboard for that year...it was No1 almost worldwide*
RIP SINEAD AND PRINCE WHO WROTE THIS MASTERPIECE. 😢🙏🕊✌🌻🌻 She was right all along. I watched that live.
Looks like John can really feel the emotions. I get tears in my eyes everytime I see the video. Not just since Sinead's passing but it always affected me. R.I.P.

Never going to stop missing her, what a massive loss this is. There will be no one else like her - EVER
Did you know her personally?
Rebellious by nature describes being Irish, which she was!!!
Thank you guys for honoring her ❤
I'm going to miss our little warrior with the broken heart 💔 I'm going to miss her deeply.
I EMPHATICALLY IMPLORE you listen to her version of Sacrifice by Elton John. It is absolutely stunning. She was a warrior. An absolutely stunning human being in every way. I hope she’s found the peace she always longed for in life. Rest in peace, warrior. We will love you forever. ❤️🕊️
The late Prince wrote this song. Gave it to Sinead and the rest is history.
Who doesn't love this song? Everybody love it!
This was a wonderful tribute. Thank you both!
Beautiful Irish soul I love you Sinead❤

an incredible voice, and an opinion on every issue, which she was not afraid to share publicly. that's who, and not only, was SHE!
You really want to be blown away, listen to Troy. That one is my favorite.
I think you should know more about this amazing woman. please look into it more. I'm very Thankful for you talking about our hell and bringing it here. By the way I'm her age and from Ireland and she was the bee's knee's xx
Well explained about how she protested against the church abuse. I think that a lot of young people don't know about how early she stood against that.
Yes protested against Catholic church abuse of women and became a Muslim, makes sense does it ?
John is so nice that you are knowledgeable about her, and that you are from that era
Lovely tribute. I was going to mention the vulnerability too. One thing I love about the way she sang this was the dynamic range she used. I don't know that I've ever heard another singer do that to the extent that she did.
I love how music connects people from different cultures. Sinead was definitely a connector. Her music continues to work its magic in melting hearts, tearing down walls and building bridges. Rest in peace, Sinead O’ Connor.
She was a hero to me then & always will be
RIP this angel, the Heavenly choir has a new beautiful voice
Bless her heart. I pray for her family and fans.

Um, yeah it did sweetie. If you think a few loyal fans and an indie following is the same career course she had before she ripped up the picture of the Pope then you're delusional
Rest in Paradise...what a legend ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤
A special soul she is
This is Prince's song. If you want to know Sinead O'Connor better reach for her debut - The Lion and the Cobra. I recommend song Troy.
21 when this came out was into rock, I was young male and never thought much about pop , I heard this and thought wow that's a voice, rip beautiful one.
This is my favorite song with her.
She looked so happy in her final video- the tour of her new home. We all know mental health can envelope you even in your happiest times. Just so much tragedy in her life- imagine losing your youngest child from suicide. Beautiful voice, beautiful woman. Rest in peace, I pray you're in a happier place full of only love now. You're gonna be missed so, so, so much.
Feel like all men love this song. Utterly beautiful.
She originally shaved her head out of protest because the record label said she would be popular because she was pretty!!!!
She gorgeous without hair. But have you ever seen her with long feminine hair. Holy Smokes.
Beautiful, incredibly talented, brave, and a fearless truth-teller. She went up against the Catholic Church and paid the price. But it paved the way for victims of the Catholic Church's abuses to get justice. God bless her warrior soul.
Love your discrimination. I hope @ all of the Future Music Awards . Some Strong Musicians will speak up for her, like you just did. ♥️♥️
I cry every time I hear this song.
Sinnead was a hero. A true one.
I just read her autobiography and I have so much respect for her. She grew up in an extremely abusive home, both physically and emotionally. Ireland at that time was very oppressive and the Catholic church was very powerful and no one questioned nor spoke out in public against it.

I wish Mandinka would get more attention, another great song by Sinéad
As a Child in Northern Ireland! She saw more than any child should see! a generation of mistrust frustration and resentment !! Remains till this Day! Can't blame the Desived! Blame the Desivers!!!
I am writing this to help out John lee and lulu and this video and this channel with the algorithm ♥️✌️🥰
This was perfection.
She represented the troubled soul in all of us.
I'm in a river of tears...
As a young lad, I had the hots for Sinead. So sad RIP.
Well...these deaths seem to come in threes. Sinead, Tony Bennett and ??? RIP to both.
Who is going to be the third I wonder 🤔
We recently did tribute reactions to Sinead, Tony Bennett and Tina Turner... So many great ones have past recently.
@@jeremystevens5312 I hope not Paul McCartney or Barry Gibb.
@@davidsonofyisrael god I hope it's Paul McCartney he is evil as hell 🤞🤢🤮
It's so fun to watch you two, I love your reactions!
Tears!!! Great Reaction & love your commentary on her ... I Think this song can go #1 again if promoted properly ..
Rip love ❤
Great to see youngsters react to the great old acts.

This song was written by Prince

Fun fact.... Prince wrote this song.
Some guy named Prince wrote this song.
look up her next live performance for farm aid(?) and crowd boo her. kris kristophren came out to stage to comfort and support her

Another queen gone to soon
Not to take away from her as she was a great artist but I think Chris Cornell’s version is the best rendition, RIP Sinead
Wow, thank you for mentioning that Chris Cornell did this song too. I love him and have never heard that.
@@snicky58 he’s done a few covers including MJ’s Billie Jean, if reacting attempt to react to his acoustic versions
Ya gotta check out Chris Cornell version!
😢
The Prince and Rosie Gaines version is just as good…
Sadly, the third hit today...Randy Meisner died. RIP
🇮🇪❤️🇺🇲🖤🇮🇪❤️🇺🇲
she was miserable almost all her life especially after the snl controversy. rip sinead. one of the best songs of all time.
no.. she wasn`t `miserable`most of her life. good grief. you don`t really know her story.
@@keetahbrough and you do?
This song is about her abusive deceased mother!!
Still missing what her mother failed to be....
'It's probably one of the most beautiful songs ever written', and yet, you didn't mention who wrote it did ya? That would be Prince.
Prince's song.
True, in the sense that he wrote it. He recorded it in 1985, with his side band, The Family. But he was never able to make it a successful hit, on his own.
In 1990, Sinead made it a worldwide HIT. She is the only reason anyone has ever heard of this song.
Props & respect where they are due.
RIP Sinead. Brave-Rebel-Legend
I don't know how or why she died,but i now she had some kind of mental health problems 😪Her number one hit(nothing compares to your was written by Prince.A trubled soul😔
It was written and preformed by Prince, you should react to his version as well lol
rip but prince wrote it
True. And he recorded it. And no one heard it. His version was awful. Sinead made it a worldwide HIT.
He's welcome.
Only for Sinéad, many people would not have known that this song was written by Prince
i understund she...i hate the church to...
