  • In this video, we’re going to talk about the tragedy of Jeanne Deckers, the “singing nun”. A Belgian to global phenomenon of the mid-60s who tried to bend the rules of Catholicism and use her voice, but who ultimately and fatally succumbed to the pressures of society. Trigger warning for suicide and some talk of religious trauma. A LOT of this will be based on speculation, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

    Excellent work raising awareness of many social, religious, relationship, and political issues of the world. As a person suffering from clinical anxiety and depression, I find your views both heartfelt and compelling.
    U are a "storyteller". Keep up the good work.
    May it be a blessing that brings tolerance to what has become an even more intolerant world. 😢
    U are a light in the darkness.
    Thank U. Peace.

    Aside from the injustice suffered by both parties, I wonder if clinical depression wasn't a factor.

    When i was a kid I fell in love with her song and still listen to it today. So sad the church would do this to her.

    What a story! 😮
    I saw her as the story of a very repressed angry woman who came from a background surrounded with no love who in my opinion wasn't equipped to be a pop star or for any sort of fame.

    Wow. Well done indeed! I wonder if we can enter your mini-doc & the movie bios about her in the LGBT film festival? Let me know if you would like to give it a go.

    Cool documentary, although that's really not how you pronounce her name. It's a French name (like the song), not an English one

    Huh. Isn't it odd though, it was so tied in with the story of a lesbian with a very complicated relationship.
    My heart is breaking for this woman.

    What a terrible end to the Singing Nun! The Dominican Order should be ashamed! How disgusting! She was a great singer!

    It sounds like she unfortunately didn't know or follow the Bible very well.
