Lyrics:
Margareth Thatcher on TV
Shocked by the deaths that took place in Beijing
It seems strange that she should be offended
The same orders are given by her
I've said this before now
You said I was childish and you'll say it now
Remember what I told you
If they hated me they will hate you
England's not the mythical land of Madame George and roses
It's the home of police who kill black boys on mopeds
And I love my boy and that's why I'm leaving
I don't want him to be aware that there's
Any such thing as grieving
Young mother down at Smithfield
Five a.m., looking for food for her kids
In her arms she holds three cold babies
And the first word that they learned was please
These are dangerous days
To say what you feel is to dig your own grave
Remember what I told you
If you were of the world they would love you
England's not the mythical land of Madame George and roses
It's the home of police who kill blacks boys on mopeds
And I love my boy and that's why I'm leaving
I don't want him to be aware that there's
Any such thing as grieving

STOP SAYING SHE WAS "TROUBLED". SHE was the truth, THE WORLD is troubled. Rest in power, lioness 🙏🏼
❤🙏🏼
Thank you💚.
Yes..rest now beautiful Irish warrior woman ☘️
she was troubled lol
@@kathrynmann7234She wasn’t troubled. The world is.
She so did tell the truth but her poor tormented soul was troubled by her childhood upbringing. No one means any harm by saying this. May her soul find peace at last.
From A Black Man in America:
When she died, maybe you Irish may have not known, so many of us Black people were deeply hurt, we mourned. We saw her on television first , we saw her in her glorious power on late night shows, and on music channels, this clear voice like water and crystal. We saw a warrior of a people who have fought centuries for dignity and a proud place in the world. A warrior Queen, only made mad by the jackals against justice.
Now, I am so proud that members of the Irish government can clearly call out an extermination of a people, no matter whether they are of a different faith or a half hue skin different from you. She is a shining example of your great people, from those small islands. She and Ireland continue to prove that it isn’t about the hectares you stand upon, but the principle you stand upon that make you important.
A powerful statement, the principle you stand upon is what makes you important. Love that. A proud Irish man here.
We find it disturbing that right now it is acceptable to kill all those people by people forgetting they are killing just that people. We use to many labels made to divide and belittle people and forget the endless similarities and sameness we truly are. It is only when we were children we would all play and have the same habits and unite until we grow and the labels start to divide us.
Bravo.. well stated.
That's great to hear. Our irish mother always taught us to stand against oppression wherever we find it. In the 80s we matched for South Africa to end apartheid and now we fight for Palestine 🇵🇸
Thank you brother. ❤❤❤❤
She is an Irish national treasure & a gift to the world.
You are right
❤❤😢😢
No other words required Astrid. Your words are precious and accurate 😢❤
Yes, I fully agreed. I am hoping that Ireland will rename the Dublin airport to Sinéad instead.❤
“I love my boy and that’s why I’m leaving/I don’t want him to be aware that there’s any such thing as grieving.” This song is heart wrenching, especially now, knowing what she went through with her younger son.
Man, this song. I have no words. It made me an instant fan of hers. I have nothing but respect for her.
🎶👊🏾😎🤙🏾🙏🏾
As the decades have gone by, this has become her most covered song. It's her best protest song. RIP, Sinead. You were a national treasure.
RIP Sinead. Thanks for opening an young man's eyes by sharing your pain with the world.
to this point it was just a voice to me - bla bla bla but now I too say thank you for sharing your pain with the world Sinead... I am awake now
@@BridgeandTunnelScooterClub she'd like that very much - to be heard and believed, now I hope you use your voice and yeah, some will only hear blah blah, just keep speaking the truth ~
This is what empathy sounds like. A sound too painful to be anything less than beautiful. Sinead was too empathetic to live a long life in a cruel world. All we can do now is carry her spirit like a torch in the dark, lighting our way through dangerous days.
Rest in peace Sinead. You were punk and raw and troubled and lovely. I'll miss you to the end of my days.
And nothing has changed since she sang this - just got worse. Sinead, so brave, so beautiful, so talented, so fierce - RIP with your beloved son Shane.
THIS is the song I'll remember Sinead for and it’s the first song that came to mind when I heard the sad news.
RIP 🙏
Just heard about her passing. I listened to this album so often that I have all of the songs memorized. This one and "Three Babies" were my favorites.
May she Rest in Peace. She was amazing.
When I was 16 in the early 90’s I cried the first time I heard this song. Literally. I’ll never forget it. RIP to a musical legend and social pioneer.
3 babies is my song... What a gift Sinead was . Rest now, sweet girl. ❤
Non, elle n'était pas malade, simplement d'une grande sensibilité, avec une enfance traumatisée. Elle avait tout les talents, très intelligente, la plus belle des âmes que la terre ait portée. Elle a fait beaucoup de bien à ce monde. Et ce monde ne l'a pas aidé. Ma Sinéad, je t'aime infiniment, tu restes la meilleure,❤❤❤ tu vis en moi.
Thank you Sinead for being yourself in a world where that is in your words "digging your own grave" You will be truly missed😢
One of the best things she wrote....such a fierce & fragile soul!
RIP Sinéad. You were loved.
One of her lesser-known but brilliant songs. Her beautiful voice and spirit will be missed. RIP Sinead
This was one of the first songs that politicized me as a teenager. Rest in power, Sinéad. Thank you for forging a new path.
“These are dangerous days… to say what you feel is to lay your own grave” ❤️😢
One of my favorite songs of hers 🥹 rest in peace and thank you for the classics ❤️🖤
"The truth is a sharp spear that flies home and misses not..." A quote from KING SOLOMON'S MINES by Henry Rider Haggard, but it will work equally well here. RIP, my dear Sinead, you were one brave soul and you pulled your weight, and then some... wish I had met a gal so idealistic in my days of romance and poetry. Damn, I'll miss you... you were SO F#%ING BRAVE!
I've known how to play this song for years. Lately I can't get to the end without my voice cracking and something getting in my eye.
Sinead made me feel seen. Thank you. ✊🏽🙏🏽
RIP Queen. 🕊
Sad all week because of her passing. There is a hole in the world where she once was. This song slays me.❤🌈
Me too. I'm still cracked open.
I can honestly say I felt the same way -- that the balance of good vs. evil in the world shifted that day.
This was one of my favorite cd's as a young person.
After decades and decades since my love affair began with Sinead, and even though it's been some years of not hearing some of her songs I can still sing them along with all of them word for word still. So much love.
May your soul rest in peace. I admired you so.
So many nights and days with your music on repeat.
Ironic how we’re again in the very same boat once again. We humans seem to NEVER learn anything. She was a force that changed my thinking forever. ❤️
When did we get out of that boat?
"I love my boy, and that's why I'm leaving...i don't want him to be aware that there's any such thing as grieving..."
@@elainerosefelder4986And today we grieve… 🥹
Sad that this same issue is present everywhere on earth. When will the hate stop? Let's be the rainbow in someone's clouds!!
May your soul be at peace and with your beloved son…. 🌹
My brother introduced me to this album on a road trip in the early 90's. I put the walkman headphones on and let the pure sweet power of Sinead's voice wash over me as I watched the Arizona landscape go by.
What a song, what a person, take care Sinèad x
She was an awesome person and artist ....she knew all along even as a young girl about this world ..thankfully .we have her music that will live forever
I've saved this here vid to my "Mentors, Leaders, Heros" list.
In the "old way,"
I ask . . .
May she be met by the right ancestors.
May the right gates be opened unto her.
May she be led upon the right path.
May she arrive at the right place.
For the highest good, truth, and beauty of all our relations.
In this generation, and throughout all generations of time.
Slán Abhaile Sinéad.
Beannacht ar an taobh eile leat.
Thank you....... R.I.P. Sinéad O'Connor 😥

This WHOLE ALBUM IS TRULY RAW connection to LIFE & her talent was GIFTED by SPIRITUAL CONNECTION.
Rest in peace you sweet , wonderful soul 🌺🍀🙏❤❤❤
Absolute legend. We should all be more like her. ❤
my mistakes make me think its not possible but ill try
Sad, sad news. Her star shone brightly.
This was always my favourite. Hated Thatcher too
Rest at Peace. You spoke to us at a time we needed to hear .
Precious precious soul. RIP
She saved us If she didn't sing her Song People would of Still treated things the same I Thank her for everything
RIP you were a big part of my life in the 90's as a kid listening to rage
(Y la primera palabra que aprendieron fue "por favor"
Estos son días peligrosos
Decir lo que sientes es cavar tu propia tumba)
Parece que el tiempo haya pasado en vano, pues seguimos igual que cuando Sinéad O'Connor nos cantó con su maravillosa voz esta canción.
such a treasure can never be truly lost and yet few will ever understand the cost
RIP. Love this song
Chevelle brought me here by way of her passing amazing lyrics........I just learned something today
I still can't believe she's gone. My 7 year old daughter walked into the kitchen and asked me why I was crying. I was like, someone died, you didn't know them . . . It was such a shock . . .
Poor girl passed away today. I will miss her. the world loses a perfect voice.
Love this song.
I've learned more about her since her death,I love her courageous stand against injustices in the world,and her music 🎵🎶 ,she was sent hear for a little while and God took her home ,take your rest sweet princess RIPH. I hope you are reunited again with those you lost in life.Much Love.
Gorgeous song. Sad
A sad thing that Sinead left the world as young as she was. :( While I haven't heard all of her music, I can appreciate that she made some stunning music contributions in her time. I plan to get hold of at least one of her biography books when I next can. Hoping she is now at peace also.
buy 'Remembering's'.
MOST UNDERRATED SINGER..

"In her arms she holds three cold babies
And the first word that they learned was "please"
Ripped my heart out
Sinead's voice in this reminds me a little of Hope Sonderval.
RIP Sinead.
Sinéad ❤
RIP, Sinead
Absolutely
So beautiful
You’ll know which one when you listen
She was a real Christ like energy and consciousness
Stood up to THe Evil Vatican before the world had the courage to
And said it like it was
A true artist
DIVINE 💔💔💔💔💔
This is just beautiful!
RIP Sinéad 🩵
Quand j'écoute Sinéad je me sens un peu Irlandais 🙂
Rest in love & peace ..If it needed to be spoken you stood tall
We had an angel on walking on Earth.
That song...I have no words.
Special person. Erin go Bragh ( sp.) RIP
