    This video is so simple yet so powerful. It’s literally just her face. But her face is so expressive, and her eyes feel like they look right into your soul. She does such an amazing job conveying the emotion. Prince wrote the song but Sinead will forever own it.

    Prince wrote this song for another artist. Sinead recorded this version years later, shortly after her mother died, and drew upon her grief, which you so accurately sensed in your reaction. And anyone whose gone through a rough breakup will feel exactly what she's saying. This one always moves me.

      I always wondered about this, so I just looked up a video when Prince sings it at Paisley Park and he says "All the flowers you planted, baby, in the backyard"
      "Baby" or "babe" instead of "mama". Maybe Sinead was sad that she didn't have a good mother not that she lost an abusive mother. ✌

    This track was on heavy rotation on the radio while I was having to work through a newly dead relationship. Between those two things life tore the heart clean out of me. Now I live alone, and I can hear this without the devastation of that time. Now I live by the lyrics mostly, and see anyone I care to (rare, by choice) and do whatever I might please to without falling foul of the law. Being alone is a totally fine life choice, but they never tell you that when you are young.🤔 Anyway, superb track, thanks for choosing to listen to it, thanks for the video.👍 Be well.😉

    Prince wrote this song in 1984. Sinead O’Connor did this cover version in 1990. It went to no.1 in the UK charts and no.1 in 18 other countries. She tweaked the script slightly to make it a female version. The part she had tears in (All the flowers you planted, Mama, in the backyard) was thinking about her mum, who died in a car crash three weeks before. She had a very difficult life with her mum, and wanted to forgive her, but it was too late. All the other lyrics of this song (written by Prince) wasn’t about her life. She chose this song because she loved it herself. You pronounce her name “Shin-aid”

    The tight shot emphasizes her stark beauty, the power of her voice and the range of emotions. She’s also disembodied which is a subtle expression of her fragmented emotional state. She’s not feeling whole. At 5:11, the brief capture of her gaze off screen, to me, captures her loss. It’s stunning.

I deledysk i piosenka są niebezpiecznie hipnotyzujące, ale kocham je.

    Sinead has always been uncompromising in her performances - raw and genuine emotion her mother, with whom she’d had a difficult relationship, had died shortly before this was recorded, so when she sings “All the flowers that you planted mam/
    In the back yard/ All died when you went away” and starts to cry, she’s thinking of her.
    A truly overfill singer who has had a very rough life. Other essential songs include Troy, Three Babies, and the trad Irish song I am Stretched on Your Grave.
