Prince penned the lyrics but Sinead sang the hell out of this song and made it her own. RIP.
Take it to the limit also, randy owns that song.
@@juliae7451 Reason for this is there was bad blood btwn Prince & Sinead.
@@juliae7451why?? Idiots!!!!!!!!
@@khismet Yep, they refused to allow her who her and her family has/had generational problems for many years
@@winniethepoohandeeyore2 She met Prince only after recording the song and found it to be a very unpleasant experience with him trying to dictate how she presents and conducts herself in interviews, etc., especially when it comes to swearing. She had little good to say about him as a person.
For those of my age…we remember this as something that played incessantly on mtv and radio. I always found both audio and video beautiful. But today, i just want to honor that beautiful face and that beautiful voice and that beautiful songwriter, who are no longer with us.
The first song I heard from her was mandinka, which was a great song, and then I heard this and it was pretty good but I don't think it's as good as a lot of the other songs. she wrote and covered a lot of great songs, and it's a shame people only know her for this one.
When this came out, I remembered then seeing the sadness in her eyes! I didn’t know until later that she was abused by her mother and sexually abused by others!
There’s a very heartbreaking interview on Dr. Phil where she says she was kicked over and over again by her mother and yet another video explains that her mother was the one who cut her hair and made her to believe she was ugly and she repeatedly kicked her in her private area to prevent her from having children!
Her mother was a monster!
@@hobowithawaterpistol9070 True 💔
Yes I remember! I am 48, I ' m from Mexico, here this song was played everywhere
.....R.I.P. Sinead🙏
Her mother was a monster who also sexually abused her as well as others
This song was a huge contrast to the excesses of the 1980s. Her sound and her look caught everyone off guard. She was a palette cleanser, albeit a sad one. RIP dear lady.
Your comment is absolutely spot on 💕
Beautifully said.
Yes.
Yes! Very well put.
I was 24 when this song came out. 33 years later it still hits me in the heart and gives me goosebumps all over. RIP Sinead. You really were ahead of your time.
Fully agreed I would have loved to see what she could have achieved had she been born later into a world that accepted her ❤️ 😢 xx
@@sarasgambati8495 So sad. She had to die for people to hear her.😢
Every time ❤
I was 24 as well, and so was she. That really hit me that we were the same age 😢.
I was a little child, it still makes me cry… she sung it like a broken angel.
RIP to an authentic, beautiful, tortured artist 💜 This was one of my favorite songs back then as well as now. Iconic video too.
Ditto, one BEAUTIFUL artist and troubled is at peace now with her beautiful son ❤️ now. Rest in Peace, Sinead O Connor 🙏. A new shining star 🌟 over the night 🌙 skies ,world wide ❤😢.
she wasn't tortured - she was furious at ab8se of the vulnerable and that those with the influence and authority ensure that most offenders continue and without reprimand - her own parents were such monsters... she was strong, brave and frustrated with the poor quality of too many human beings -there was a touch of trauma stress but she handled everything well - choosing to show her fury at enabling of ab8se by those who have the ability to stop it, and slanderous lies about victims...
@@CatherineAKennedyAnd tortured too.
Sorry, but there's NO WAY you've never heard this song. Besides, no comments about technique, voice range, interpretation... I don't know, other than "she felt it"?
Can't believe I've watched your "reaction" video... You got me there.
Love this song! And NO auto tune.
She made a point of standing up to the establishment and only worked on her own terms, she was a true artist.
She was a Narc
What did she do exactly 🧐
@@cynthiagonzalez658Really?
@@sexysadie2901
That's your answer 🧐🤣
True warrior of our Lil country, sinead spoke sang truth, true to herself, inspiring beautiful angelic soul
We all love sinead
We were so blessed to have such a beautiful angelic soul as inspiration all thru our lives
Fly high beautiful angel sinead 🕊🕊🕊🍀💜🫶🏼💕🕊🕊🕊
Sinead was so beautiful. She had big, expressive eyes and a doe like face. Not many women can look good bald, but she did. Her voice was so beautiful and poignant. RIP SINEAD O'CONNOR 🙏 🕊 ☮️
She shaved her head because she didn’t want to be beautiful. She didn’t like the sort of attention it brought her
@@aWomanFreedAlso her record company wanted her to have her hair and clothing a certain way to fit into their ‘Brand” and sell records.
Her response was to shave her hair off and say ‘Now what?”
My parents were massive Sinéad O’Connor fans. I remember wanting to shave my head in the 90s so I’d look like her - when I was a child. I thought she was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen.
I’m 35 now and understand her reasoning, but I still think she’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.
@@laurenoneill5581 I agree. She was xx
All women can look good bald.
Since you have not heard this before so glad you did pull this up. Her voice and emotion are off the chart. This woman had so much integrity in her convictions.
He heard it before. Unless he was living in isolation for years. I rather him of done a tribute then use her name in the title acting like he never heard of her before. I wasnt even born yet when she was big and I knew who she was.
@@KyleFartboy There have been a lot of tunes he really has never heard. Salvo seems like an honest, straight shooter who (like many) is broadening his musical tastes.
(just wish he'd not worry about the length of pieces and dive into some early Genesis. He will be pleasantly surprised)
She was a Narc
@@rk41gator Definitely agree on Genesis.
Sinead O'Connor was a hero. She stood by her convictions to the end, and voiced them publicly over her whole career without fear of repercussion. The world failed her.
👏 👏 👏
I was young but remember. I didn't understand why she was so poorly treated. I was brought up in church but it horrified me to see what she went through ❤️
Though she didn't write it (Prince did), this song will forever be hers.
Yes, she has "created" this song...
the literal tears she sheds as she sings this song seals the deal. that once-in-a-lifetime voice with this level of passion... sorry to Prince's fans, but Sinéad owns this song. RIP Sinéad. You were too beautiful for this world.
No sorries. They know, and he knew.
He gave it to her. Prince was a musical genius and wrote many songs for other artists. He was a modern day Mozart,
I knew she wasn't long for this world after the death of her child. Nothing Compares is beautiful, but she was beyond just that song. Her entire catalog is amazing, no words. So grateful that I was able to see her live when I was just 14. When "8 good reasons" came out I thought she might "stick around." I hope people will listen to the insane amount of musical gifts she left for us. I hope she has found peace and is with her baby boy. The only flaw of Sinead O'Connor was being ahead of her time and speaking out before the world was able to accept truth.
This👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Speaking out against the church was no flaw. Its been a long time, but that one act of courage might have changed the world.
Agree 100%!!! To it all.
@@aWomanFreedtotally agree with you, it was never a flaw and she stuck by her views even when many wouldnt liste or accept the truth.
@@aWomanFreedabsolutely! She was and will always be remembered as a HERO for children! She is so important. Those who went against her for her actions on SNL just showed what they are and who they side with. I was a young kid when she did that on SNL (raised atheist) and I stood and applauded her.
Sinead.... A beautiful woman with a tortured soul, she suffered abuse as a child and at the hands of her mother then yrs later she lost her son to suicide just over a year ago 😥 now reunited together.
RIP Sinead along with your Son.
Have to read her biography or listened to her reading her audio book? I knew she was very abused but not to the extent she speaks about in the book. You can listen to the first bit for free online. Awful.
@@amylee3531 👍
So sorry for this loss 😔😢
Iconic. I’ve probably heard this song thousands of times and it still makes me cry every time. Her live performance of this song in Chile is phenomenal. No auto tune, no frills but so powerful.
So agree with her live Chile performance, just saw it myself and as lovely as this version is the live version makes this version sound like a lukewarm practise.
When she does that long note.
It's hard to convey how ginormously huge this song was when it came out. RIP. She was brave how she spoke truth to power.
This is a suspended moment in time for those of us in her generation that hit us so deeply. Her raw performance, rough edges and delicate nuances in her vocals on this made this unforgettable. She was special is an understatement.
She cried after she sang about the flowers... it's hard to see, but a big tear falls from her left eye... Great reaction. Thank you.
If I remember correctly it was because her mother had just passed away.
@@glennelfmann3143yes, from my recollection, that moment in the video wasn’t scripted. It was the mention of her mother that caused the tears.
@@ThatGouletKid I thought I remembered it having something to do with her mother
Her and her siblings went through so much with her mother it's heart breaking 💔
Both eye’s actually
sometimes when I am quiet during a "reaction" it's for a reason, please excuse my lack of dialogue. Thanks for watching.
Side note: I feel like i have to explain this; this song was being requested by a lot of subscribers and patreon members. I didn’t do a single ounce of browsing RUclips for other reactors to see how their video performed. I do not care about that. This video could have 100 views and it wouldn’t matter, it’s about community. I want to cover what my subscribers and patreons want to hear for the love of the music. Community + music + passion. Much love and respect to the amazing Sinéad. Thank you for a beautiful song.
Me too. I just got lost.
this song was written to tell the hard story abaut sinead and her mother. she blamed her for her mental sickness. once she died, Sinead regrets not trying to make things better with her mother
It never fails to touch my heart and I ALWAYS get choked up.
I appreciate your silence as much as your dialogue. For me, your silence was truth. I remember my first introduction to this song it was watching this video. Her face in close up, her voice the impact of the lyrics mesmerized me and silenced the world for me for a moment
@@rockwhkPrince wrote the song.
Two legends gave all of us this Masterpiece. Prince wrote it & Sinead took it deep to heart & sung us an all-time great. RIP 🙏
The song is gorgeous, and the video is unforgettable - the vulnerability of sticking with a close-up of Sinéad's expressive face is just incredible. Gorgeous and filled with heart.
The simple instrumental along with such an emotional rendition makes it unforgettable. Her voice was much stronger than she showed here.
This is the song most people know... But you should explore her other work. The Lion & The Cobra is a masterpiece. Especially 'Troy' or 'Jerusalem' my personal favorites.❤❤❤
I am Stretched on Your Grave
@@cadleo also a good one!
The last day of our acquaintance does it for me.... She has some great music!
The last day of our acquaintance is my favorite, but there are about 20 songs of hers that are better than this Prince cover.
Her Universal Mother album is my favorite.
Shin Aid. It's pronounced. Our Beautiful lost soul. Gone but never forgotten. Such Talent, but a very tormented soul. 😢😢🇮🇪💚
Over 30 years ago, still can cry hearing this song by her. That's what I call legendary!
RIP Sinead. Also RIP Randy Meissner of the Eagles who was lead singer on the song Take It To The Limit ❤❤❤ He passed July 26
He died too? Damn! I thought glen Frey was the lead but I’m probably wrong!
Glen Frye was also lead.They each sang lead in different songs . Take It To The Limit was Randy on Lead
@@hobowithawaterpistol9070
Randy Meisner died from complications from COPD
Yeah, this song was a monster. But before it was released, Sinead was being played in the alternative music clubs. She always packed the floor with her songs Mandinka and The Emperor's New Clothes. Definitely worth checking out.
I loved dancing to Put Your Hands on Me (with MC Lyte)
Yep, most people forget her album The Lion and the Cobra, I loved that album at the time.
So true! She said in interviews for years after this song that it very nearly destroyed the career she wanted, which was that of a protest singer, not a big commercial success. She also said that it was the photo-tearing that saved her, and put her back on track, even though it made her life very hard for a while. God rest her soul.
Black Boys on Mopeds
Her best song
This song came on the radio while my dad was on the phone with the funeral directors, arranging my mum's funeral. The line ''All the flowers in the back yard, mama/ All died when you went away'' gets me every time. RIP, Sinead.
So sorry for your loss 🌸 Sinead said she thought of her deceased mother, every time she sang this song 💔
So sorry, but that ist ja fear,too. One day my mum will leave me alone.... And the flowers of her will die😢
Im so happy to see people now responding to her powerful, emotional delivery of this song.
Her face. Her eyes...broadcasting everything. sheer powerful emotional performance. Raw emotion,
Everyone is in the world identified with her words and pain!!!!! And that's what makes the song sooooo personal and internationally received like the songs of Stevie Nicks!!!
She was thinking of her mother.
Not her words but she definitely made them sound powerful thanks to her performance and backstory
@@caramadra5 True. But everyone can relate to the pain of grief, loss and longing 💔
Prince's words, but her interpretation is beautiful and moving.
@@lavenderbee3611 Exactly. Her emotion, both in the video and audio, is what makes the song so powerful and moving 💙
Sinead struggled with many things, and her relationship with her mother was always a very difficult one. She's discussed it on occasions and it seemed almost as if it was an abusive relationship at times. A few years before this song came out, she and her mother were trying to resolve their relationship, and her mother died in a car accident. I think that's why when she sings about the flowers that her mama planted in the backyard, you see tears come down her face. She will truly be missed. As I always say, Prince may have written the song, but Sinead, owned it.
Sinead was very badly abused by her mother who in turn was badly abused by the Catholic church.
Prince wrote all the words. It wasn't written about Sineads mother it just happened to fit what had happened in her life.
@@jmk1962 I realized it was not written about Sinead's mother. I'm just saying at that point in the song, it may be why she becomes more emotional.
It wasn’t an almost abusive relationship. By Sinéad’s own account, it was a brutal physically and emotionally abusive relationship…
IIRC, she and her partner- I believe he was a band member- had just split up also. He was the father of one of her children.
"Stretched on your grave" is my favourite song of Sinead's. I listened to it on repeat after my grandma died. Sinead helped me through a very dark season of my life.
Sorry for your loss 🌸 I love that song 💙
Sorry for your loss…. It’s not her song, she just sang it but didn’t write or compose it.
There is a fabulous RUclips video of Sinéad performing I am Stretched on your Grave a cappella. Powerful indeed. RIP
Her voice is so angelic it's almost cathedral. She was misunderstood but she never compromised her artistic integrity. She was an amazing artist and I think the world will only now start to grasp her talent and absorb the art that she offered the world
This is a song that pulls you in and makes you feel what she is singing.
Even though you didn't say anything it was a great reaction, it is such a powerful song that you can't help but not speak over it.
Such a stunning haunting voice. Beautiful. Everything she ever said was true. She was owed an apology.
Sinead suffered a horrific and tortured (literally) childhood. She had many demons that plagued her. Such a breathtaking face, with so much pain behind those eyes. And although not present here, a ferocity and rage.
I STILL cry every time I see and listen to this video. Thank you for the reaction. Thank you to Prince for writing such a beautiful song. My 21 year old son passed away unexpectedly in 2002, and the day we had to bury him, this song came on as we were going to his funeral. Whew, this song hit HARD.
I always cry when I watch the video, too. The emotions in the lyrics and her singing are so deep and powerful 💔 So sorry for your loss 🌸 The day that we scattered my grandfather’s ashes, the radio alarm clock in the hotel woke me up, with the song Angel by Sarah McLachlan. The lyrics of the chorus say “In the arms of the angel, fly away from here, from this dark, cold hotel room…” 💙 Messages from beyond…
❤❤❤
@csutton161 I'm so sorry 😢 ❤ sending you love xx
Sorry for your loss 😔
RIP lovely lady, this gives me shivers and makes me very emotional RIP Sinead O'Connor, im sure she's at peace with her son Shane, RIP😇💝🌹 Thank You for sharing this with us ✌️
@@laurawatters914 no worries, I wasn’t trying to be a smarty pants. You can go back and change it if you want to. 🦋🦋
@@karenglenn6707 thank you I appreciated that, also thank you for being kind. 😊
@@laurawatters914 I’ll delete my messages now or people will think that I’m a kook 😂😂 best wishes to you
@@karenglenn6707 best wishes to you too!!
She was a beautiful girl with a beautiful voice. May she rest in peace, finally. No more pain.
Now you've felt it too. It's so beautiful to see people reacting to this song for the first time. You can almost pinpoint when it hits the soul! Sinead was a lot more than this one song. She was the pride of Ireland before the rest of the world could handle her. We knew what you all didn't and Sinead was the voice people weren't ready to hear. Suaimhneas síoraí mo chara ❤
Saw this tour in Toronto and it mostly left 50,000+ people tearing up and sobbing through many parts of the show, but especially this song. Amazing night of music from this gifted and inspired sweetheart. Thank you Sinead for everything you gave the world musically and in every way.
Awww, I regret not seeing her live, during that era 💙😭😭
Let's not do this in her honor of her passing but in honor of her greatest. Appreciate this one.
Some other songs of hers you might check out are 'Troy', 'Mandinka', 'The Emperor's New Clothes', and 'Just Like U Said It Would B'. There's also 'I Want Your (Hands On Me)' in a couple of different mixes. She was an astonishingly good singer!
She represented the tortured part of all of our souls. Thanks for reviewing. No one will replace her and the world is a bit dimmer without her in it.
She lost her mother shortly before this video was made. She said the pain of that loss played a big part in why she appears so emotional singing this song. You can really feel her pain.
Hey Salvog,
Just FYI, her name is pronounced, Shi-nade.
The tear she shed when singing the lyrics, "All the flowers that you planted, Mama! In the back yard. All died and went away."
Sinead's mother passed away a few years before, and even though they had a complicated relationship, it's her mom. The lyrics, touched some raw emotions in this recording, for sure.
Brilliant song. Phenomenal performance. Sinead, had such a powerful voice, and was such an enormous talent.
Thanks for this reaction. Take care.
Sinead sheds a tear just after she mentions her mother in the song - who she was estranged from and she died a few weeks before this recording - her pain and emotion are real...!
RIP Sinead O'Connor - her Heart & Soul will live forever through her music...!
I remember when this song debuted in 1990, I was 23 and it gave me chills listening to it, it's 2023, I'm 57 and this song still gives me chills ever single time I listen to it..this iconic song and her iconic voice is simply amazing beautiful!! You're voice touched the whole world Sinead, I pray your soul and spirit is at rest..RIP
Now, you must hear her version of Sacrifice by Elton John. Simply amazing. Truly. The depth and emotion in her voice is unmatched. Rest in peace, Beautiful Warrior, Sinead. ❤️🕊️
I liked her on Edge's (U2) Heroin.
To me it is how she looks right into the camera and you see all of her emotion...it was not acting. This is where a video needs to be with the song. Only a few others fall into this category like (in the living years and I want to feel what Love is).
And minor detail: her voice is astoundingly unique and brilliant. And she's so beautiful.
I adore her voice and the way she plays with it's texture the light and shade & the harsh and soft
Sinead said she was thinking of the recent death of her mother when she recorded this video of nothing compares to you, that is why she cried singing this song. All the flowers that you planted mama in the backyard, all died when you went away.
the best female voice in music history has gone. Rest in piece Sinead. God may heal your wounds :(
Not even close !
@@richardpeddie2060 according to You?
@@richardpeddie2060Can always tell the you would turn up with negativity urghh.
Hello from Dublin, Ireland.
The tears in the song are real, at the time of the songs release Sinead had lost her Ma, so as she hits the verse in the song - "All the flowers that you planted Mama, in the back yard" it was there that it her and the tears started flowing.
💔Such a voice . Still adore this song❤️Thanks for not talking over her
RIP Sinéad. Her rendition of ‘Scarlet Ribbons’ makes me sob every time. I’m no cryer but it just grabs my heart.
This has been apart of my life since I was very young. I hadn’t heard it in years, but I still knew every word. She was amazing at being vulnerable, honest and raw. She will be missed. I hope she’s at peace now, I know she lost her son last year and was never ok again.
"I am stretched on your grave" is even more affecting, and her live performances of it are (were, SIGH) MESMERIZING.
Yes!!! Stretched on your Grave!!! Was always my favorite from Sinead when I first bought this album as a teen! Listened to it relentlessly!!!!!! Such an amazing vocal with an amazing beat, sound and an addicting flow!!! RIP
That’s SUCH A GREAT SONG. ❤️
It makes me weep
One of her best songs. Absolutely love it 💙
She made you believe she had lost someone - someone who had left her life and would never return. This resonated so much with people because so many people have had someone leave them at some time or another.
Sinead sang like an angel and now she is one.Our Irish angel nothing compares to you or never will R.I.P
Thank you for making this video, SalvoG!
She was a true one of a kind artist. But this song, and her vocal interpretation, is one for the ages. Glad you gave it a listen.
Beautiful tribute to Sinead. Check out her singing Don't cry for me Argentina, Danny Boy, she sang a beautiful song with Van Morrison and Chieftains, lots of beautiful songs as a young woman. She was unique but kept her feet on the ground. So sad to lose such talent. Rest in peace.
Ireland and USA
Nice to see people appreciating her art. She genuinely bared her soul to the world, not everyone appreciated it, and she gave no fx.
IMO - The one song that cuts deeper than this one is Three Babies. (She wrote that one.)
This song resonates with anyone who has ever fallen in love with someone who then falls out of love with you. Most of us have been there and it hurts. I think it's possibly worse than bereavement, because the object of your love is still alive but has chosen not to be with you. Sinead went through so much in her short incarnation on this planet. R.I.P.
I always loved her voice. I was 7yrs old when this came out and understood what it was about but never really sat and listened to every single word til just now. Wow. And her voice was just AMAZING. RIP Sinead 💖
RIP. Girl, you know we love you and no one can sing this song like you.... I know you are singing with the angels.🕊🌻
I spent my entire first college year of 1990 listening to this song. She sang it beautifully. Prince who wrote the song sings a different but gorgeous version too.
This song was a global hit the moment it hit the radio. Incredibly sung by beautiful woman.
I was in high school when that song was released and peaked # 1 for 2 weeks in a row . It brings so many memories about those years of my life. My classmates and smoking with a couple of them hidden in the restrooms talking about music and singing this song. RIP Sinead O'connor.
She did in one take and it was a moment in time.
I'm sure someone else might have commented this, but there are A LOT of comments so I couldn't see it. Prince only agreed to let her release this version initially if she shaved her head for the video. Sinead was never one to turn down a challenge.
She put her heart and soul into this and you can both hear and see it. We've lost a wonderful soul.
This is one of those timeless classics that will never die. Even the music video, as simple as it is, completely draws you in and you feel every lyric in her tone and on her face. RIP
She emoted the pain of lost love in the song Nothing Compares to You. People related to the lyrics and her emotional performance. It was filmed differently than most music videos of the era, with a tight shot of her face singing. Also, a woman with such short hair was unusual at that time, and it created attention and notoriety. Thank you for covering this song. It’s a standout song and performance. It is Sinead O’Conner’s signature song.
Timeless song, peerless voice, beautiful soul. May she finally be at peace.
This is may be the most authentic reaction I've ever seen. We've all felt this heartbreak. ❤ The most powerful singers show us their emotions, they don't only vocalize them. ❤
I have always loved this song/video. I’ve watched it numerous times since her passing, and I cry every time. Prince wrote it about a romantic breakup, but Sinéad has stated she thought of her deceased mother every time she sang it. She suffered from a deep mother wound, due to her mom’s abuse of her. But despite not receiving the love and tenderness all children deserve, she still loved her deeply. Heartbreaking 💔 I love you, Sinéad💙💙💙 Rest in peace, beautiful soul 💙💙💙🕊
I wished that her mother could of spoke about their relationship. Get the other side of the story.
Thanks for listening to this brilliant artist. I will miss her. I highly recommend Three Babies and Last Day of Our Acquaintance.
Hard to imagine you never heard this, but youre young. Prince was not happy about her singing this because the record companies had control. I just saw an interview with him talking about it, i never knew that. She really touched people with this song. If you like her voice listen to the Lion and the Cobra, much different, very punk/celtic album. Shes on peter gabriels song come talk to me.
I know loon at his gave hope he appreciates it
He’s heard of it
Click bait
@@Rooster1976_1 Or living under a rock urghh
Did you hear Sinead talking about her experience of when she met Prince?
Ended with them screaming at each other and him chasing her around a car.
'Troy' is equally stunning. Bless your beautiful soul dear Sinead🙏💚
The first time I heard this song it blew me away. This song is a piece of her heart she gave us. She was so talented but so fragile. I, with millions of others, hope she is at peace now. 💔
There are a few songs and videos that I have listened to and watched over and over, Tori Amos live version of Winter, Evanescence My Immortal and Sinead O'Conner Nothing Compares 2U. I cry every time. They are all beautiful, heart breaking and so emotionally moving. RIP Sinead. You were so authentic and passionate. You are loved.
Prince wrote and sang this but Sinead definitely did it justice RIP
Sinéad O'Connor changed my life. RIP.
I have loved her since her first album. I was 15. I have been listening to "Just like you said it would be" from the lion and the cobra non stop since news of her passing. I highly recommend it. Her first album was very raw and was where she established she would not just be some little pop singer.
Sinead, you were loved💔💔💔
An exceptional artist. She didnt do it for the fame, and the extreme attention she got for this song caused her a lot of stress. Im gratefull i got to she her live. Her performance was otherworldy. Chills. Both times.
where you been living under a rock?! how can you not have listened and know her music...wow . She was a legend, a true woman who fought for what she believed in despite living a horrific childhood of massive abuse. RIP Sinead Bless you always
I saw her live at Meadowbrook in the summer of 1991. Her encore was a capella, and it was amazing. Total silence after for a full five seconds, then thunderous applause. Troubled soul with the voice of an angel. RIP, Ma'am.
And now she's gone. Taking with her that beautiful voice.
I think part of the phenomenon of this song was it was many people’s first experience with the vocal flip, from chest to head voice. It was so unique. Prince wrote music for many many other artists. He was a prolific writer.
She was queen of the vocal flip!
There is something so exotic, so out of this world about this song. I was very young when I heard it the first time. It is like church music and not at the same time...! I have prayed for her soul and I wish nothing but for her troubled soul to find peace. She was so beautiful inside out. May the Lord Jesus have mercy on your soul Sinead. You are one of the most unique artists that has ever lived, yet so underrated in this planet..! Rest in peace beautiful!
The world did not deserve the greatness that was Sinead O'Conner. We were not worthy of her. Rest In Power.
Was this song popular back then.....oh boy. This song reminded me of Martika's Toy soldiers from 1989, and while Toy Soldiers wasn't written or produced by Prince, it still sounded like this. Martka got to work with Prince in her second album and both wrote Love thy will be done.
I love that song from Martika! I always wondered what happened to her.
She said in an Interview she was thinking about her mother while singing parts of this. Years later she opened up about the absolute terrible abuse\torture she suffered through by her mother hands. You can really feel her pain, grief, and disbelief of what what was done to her in this performance.
Exactly.
I think it's a powerful song made stronger when you see the video and especially when you know that it wasn't planned for her to cry, but that happened naturally because she was thinking of her own mother in that part of the song. It's a song I've listened to more than most other songs in my life and if I didn't know better, I'd bet it was about three minutes long, sure there's an intro and an outro and the instrumental part in the middle but it always surprises me that it's a five-minute music video. I guess I just get lost in it like so many other people do. Thank you for this reaction.
Seeing a whole bunch of reactors do this since her passing was wondering if you would get to it and I'm really glad you did Thanks for sharing
Beautiful lady and a beautiful song. No one sang this song better than she did. 💔
We were mesmerized by this when it released. Now knowing her tragic childhood and life its even more meaningful as she thought about her abisive mother when she sang it
This song was played incessantly for 8-10 years. Deservedly. It went number 1 in the UK and US first, then world- wide. I never tried of it. A one in many millions of songs. Like Prince she was a one in several hundred year performer, musician and talent. Rest now, both of you.
The best song she ever sang was live, and acapella. Madison Square Gardens, she was being boo-ed off the stage. It was her first appearance after she tore up the picture of the pope. You'll never see another performance like it.
Her appearance at the Bob Dylan tribute concert with Kris Kristofferson is one of the most heartbreaking things I've ever seen. Google it.
Dylan the great protest singer let her down. That brave little girl stood there in the face of a baying mob and Dylan did nothing. Kristofferson was wonderful.
@@gerrykershaw460 Wow, I hadn’t even thought about that. And Dylan was her lifetime idol, which makes it doubly sad 💔 Yet he was one of the few people named in her book dedication, so she must have held no animosity.
@@LittleLulubee I think she was still angry, it’s just that she could separate her feelings about his disappointing response, from her appreciation of his work. I think she was quite remarkable in so many ways. Especially given the terrible things that happened to her. You’re right though about the lack of animosity. She was one of a kind, but I think she showed Dylan up, great songwriter but did not stand up for his own principles that one time he really needed to. It breaks my heart to see her on that stage. It was to his great shame that he let it happen. 😕❤
@@gerrykershaw460 Yeah, I watched it yesterday and it’s heartbreaking. She looks so wounded 💔 I wonder if she ever spoke about Dylan’s lack of a reaction? So tragic how much suffering she endured throughout her life. I still can’t believe she’s gone. She was such an amazing soul 💙
