Her voice was hauntingly beautiful, but she was widely misjudged and misunderstood. I always loved this song, and I hope she can now find the peace that eluded her on this Earth. May she RIP.
I loved this song without knowing that life would made me face the same situation she sings here with my granddaughter years later... Every word, every sound, every silence and sound here is a true part of my own life. I always loved Sinead for her art, will ove her forever and forever I will be thankful for her art. I´ve cried rivers of tears then and now, but these tears now are not enough to express all the sorrow I feel for her departure today. Thank you for giving me so much to enrich my life. Good journey to eternity, let Heaven receive you you with peace and love.
Sinéad has the most beatiful and unique female voice of pop music. More than that: No one else transmits emotions to the songs like her. Beautiful voice, face and soul... with the bravery of a lion when standing against sll kind of evel.
Sinead i hope you read these comments when times get rough..you have no idea how much your version of this song has helped me through a personal struggle..I cry everytime a hear it !! You my darling are a true artist with an amazing gift..i love you more for the fact you never sold out x
the most beautiful words i think i have ever seen. i have a son with down syndrome and these words are much like my emotions when he was diagnosed. he was born with a heart defect that was repaired twice and i feared losing him. he is four now and doing well. i am so glad i came across this beautiful song. i have listened to it so many times today. i truly love it and feel it so deeply.
Sinesd what a beautiful song You brought such feeling and love into your beautiful verson of this very sad song about Phyl Coulters late Son so much loved by him tg. Sinead you had such a very loving and tender heart This made you very special to your four beautiful children and grandchild. Like me you received no love from your late Mother. I was fostered by a lovely father but no loved by my foster Mother or my birth Mother So i have understood you so well . Like you Sjne 4:26 4:26 4:26 4:26
I've always been inclined to think this song has a wider application... it's not just about children. It's a beautiful appeal for tolerance, compassion.... absolutely divine...
I can't make it to the end of the first verse without bursting into tears. Sinead's voice is so stirring, she is one of the greatest artists of our lifetimes.
La tristezza che ho provato e' immensa, solo un' anima che sente forte il dolore del mondo puo' scrivere cosi', forse sentiva troppo, una sensibilita' che si feriva ogni giorno. Ciao Sinead, vola alto nel cielo e se ci sara' una stella che brilla di piu' sarai tu. Sei stata un dono meraviglioso, amore a te .Sei nel cuore, sempre❤
our youngest child was born with Microcephaly & had profound disabilities... He was such a blessing, although it was hard... We wish for those times when he was with us.. as he lost his battle in life to Meningitis... strange twist... BUT such children are the greatest gift ...
the most amazing and breath taking track this outstanding artist has ever produced..... anyone who has a special child will understand were I'm coming from, enjoy.....
i´m crying, and i will cry for many days because i know how hard times she was having i feel related, so much pain in a beautiful soul, god, she was a warrior but a human, scorn not her simplicity
Totally amazing beautiful and the best voice.. that I have ever heard. I have 8 of her 11 albums. Had the chance to get her autograph once in the martello hotel in bray. But.. loved her so much.. I bottled it.. biggest regret of my life. I have a sinead section in my bar at home. Loved her voice n loved her eyes. When she died I cried like a baby. RIP sinead xxxx
I believe Sinead knew that each child, each person is Sacred Soul manifest on Earth for a life of experience...you can hear it whenever she sings. God rest her sacred Soul
I have known this song for many years, and it is as magical today as it ever was! Sinead O'Connor delivers it magnificently. I have not had the experience of raising a child like the one portrayed in this song, but its lyrics and majestic melody touches me deep inside. It reminds me to not just tolerate, but appreciate our differences and embrace everybody, regardless of where they are on the spectrum of our perceived sense of "ability."
Beautiful song :) I listened to this as a child and loved it, but didn't really "get" it. Now, as the mother of a special needs little girl, this song really brings out emotion.
beautiful song.....these chlildren are often cast to the side by parents who don't realize how special they are and how there lives will be enriched by them.
I thought there was only one person who could sing this song Luke Kelly but i was wrong!!! It took till she died for everyone to realise how great of a singer she really was!!! It like the old saying you never miss your water till your well runs dry!!! R.I.P Sinead hope you're at peace with Shane in the amys of a Angel...
very angelic voice -sinead is blessed...and now she has 4 wonderful kids..to take care and love her...she is really an angel who brought us Nothing Compares 2 U...such a beautiful woman inside ... and out---shaved head lady rocks!!!!!
When a singer sings a song that deeply affects others and encourages, supports and empathizes with a vast number of people..... well, that's what being an artist really is, isn't it.
This song brings tears to my eyes. How can we understand the world of someone incapable of communicating in our way? Even in his isolation, this child is still a human deserving of respect and love.
I often listen to this song brings hairs upon my arms to a stand beautifully sung and in my opinion the best effort since Luke Kelly The Dubliners (R.I.P) lovely Sinead. Thanks James
I BOUGHT THIS DISK OF SINEAD BEFORE SHE CAME IN TO MY COUNTRY ISRAEL , SO I WILL BE READY FOR ALL THE NEW SONG SHE WILL SING ON STAGE , AND I WAS RIGHT , ON HER PERPHOMENTS IN JERUSALEM 95 SHE SANG MOSTLY NEW SONG FROM THIS DISK . MOST OF THE OUDIENCE WERE DISAPOINTED , BUT I WAS HAPPY , I KNEW ALL THE SONG . A SPECIALLY THIS AMZING JENTLY SONG THAT SINCE THAN FOR 28 YEARS , EVERTIME I FEEL SAD IT JUMP INTO MY HEAD . I HAD NO CHILD AT THAT TIME , BUT NOW THIS DAYES MY SON ON AGE 20 SUFFERING FROM SCHISOFRENIA AND SADLY ITS RELATIVE TO MY LIFE . ITS COME JUMPING IN TO MY MIND MOST OF THE DAYS . LOVE YOU SINEAD FROM DAY ONE , YOU WERE MOSTLY THE TRUE PERSON ON THIS UNVIRSE , YOU TEACHED US THAT EVEN IF THE HALL WORLD THINK YOU ARE WRONG , YOU SINEAD WERE THE ONLY PERSON WHO SPOKE ONLY THE TRUTH THAT THEY NEVER WILL HAVE THE CUREGE TO SAY . LOVE YOU FOREVER . GIDEON .
Many people have passed through a dark time in their lives, made mistakes...that doesn't mean they aren't capable of realizing it, taking responsibility for it, and moving beyond it.
Rest in peace up there with my brother Charles and Christy,yous all when around the same time, in my opinion Two great singers and Charles can sing no problem ,all my love Charles you'll never be forgotten,Y.W.N.A
thanks for the lyrics and for the feelings, that bring this song to me, sinead. I guess, no one wishes to get a child with a handicap. But if, we should try to love it all the more. Love, for me, is the meaning of life.
Pero al llegar a esta cancion, mientras andaba mi vida, mis ojos no podian parar de humedecerse. Me acerque y escuche detenidamente y el alma se me hizo un nudo de sentimientos tan enormes tan enormes. A todas las mamas les diago GRACIAS, GRACIAS, GRACIAS, GRACIAS por tanto amor. Realmente las amo, sin conocerlas, y no porque sean mas madres o mas buenas, sino por simplemente DAR A LUZ a los seres mas bellamente MAGNANIMES!!! que habitan. Como angeles andan la vida,
I have a son both physically and mentaly challanged but I can't say anymore or I would break down and he is with us. He is almost 52 , a life nearly lost. We were so young and did what we could but he couldn't co-operate with us and mental health. I worry so much what will happen to him when we are gone. And I am allways afraid for him and the future. He is like that little boy Sinead and others sing about. I hope it is different these days...that parents are wiser and can & will get help.
some times people just talk and don't listen, This song is written by a genius writter a true artist,And love the amazing sounds and stories that they both bring The beautiful Luke Kelly husky voice,And the beautiful haunting voice of Sinead O'Connor ,we are all simple people with definitional proublems, we are only human after all! Phil Coulter amazing song Genius! Love and healing to all your family!
As with many songs she's covered, Sinead sings with such authority I never questioned whether or not she had penned these lyrics; same with McTell's Streets of London. The passion in her voice convinces me.
Sergio Cabezuela No she didn't write this beautiful song.... Paddy Reilly did it years before, but her version is great. I don't know who composed this masterpiece.
Hoy toda era simple. Hoy el dia parecia que transcurriria normal, sin demasiadas emociones. Desperte, desayune con una amiga y paseamos y debatimos la vida,las relaciones, el amor. Luego regrese a casa, y tenia que arreglar unas plantas. Limpie, acomode cosas, mientras decidi escuchar musica de Sinead, que es una de mis cantantes historicamente favoritas. Y disfrute de cada una de ellas.
It was written by Phil Coulter about his son who has Down's Syndrome. Hence the line "he looks almost like the others yet they know he's not the same." People with Down's Syndrome usually have slight differences in their physical appearance such as their face. I love this song as I teach swimming to children and adults with special needs and my brother has Down's Syndrome and they brighten up my world. It's great to have a song written specially for them.
La plus belle chose qui soit arrivée sur terre, tu manques terriblement à ce monde 😢, la plus belle des âmes, dans la voix, dans les yeux et dans le cœur. Sinéad, je t'aime ❤❤❤😢
O primeiro casamento de Phil Coulter foi com Angela Coulter; seu segundo filho nasceu com síndrome de Down e morreu aos quatro anos. Com o incentivo de Luke Kelly , ele escreveu a música " Scorn Not His Simplicity " para ajudá-lo a superar os momentos difíceis. Kelly gravou a música e ela apareceu no LP Revolution de 1970 dos Dubliners , tornando-se a versão definitiva, posteriormente gravada por vários artistas.
Any fool who,says negative things about this song or its singer please upload your own version and let's see how many like or negative comments you get !
I agree with you.... I really like both Sinead and Luke Kelly but neither wrote the lyrics and I don't see a problem in that. Lovely voice, lovely lady.
alflurin, The Song was written by Phil Coulter (Stealaway, The Old Man, The Town I Loved So Well), about his son, Paul, who was born with Downs Syndrome... Have a look at the video, from his "The Live Experience" album on my profile... there he talks about Sinead's cover.
I played this song and cried. Our son has Autism and this really touched a chord.
Beautiful.
Her voice was hauntingly beautiful, but she was widely misjudged and misunderstood. I always loved this song, and I hope she can now find the peace that eluded her on this Earth. May she RIP.
Maravillosa. Un Ángel única ❤
Llora mi corazón por su perdida❤

Rest in peace beautiful wounded swan. ❤
I don't think a song has ever made me feel so emotional as this one... What a voice and what beautiful lyrics....
She was a BEAUTY in BODY ans SOUL! LOVE!
This song is one of the most beautiful love songs I've ever heard for our special child. .Simply amazing.

Decades ago, I bought an LP by soprano and harpist Mary O'Hara and this song was on it. Music Speaks Louder Than Words, Chrysalis 1978.
our youngest child was born with Microcephaly & had profound disabilities... He was such a blessing, although it was hard... We wish for those times when he was with us.. as he lost his battle in life to Meningitis... strange twist... BUT such children are the greatest gift ...
She brought tears to my eyes with the beauty of her singing and the emotional intelligence of the song.
the most amazing and breath taking track this outstanding artist has ever produced..... anyone who has a special child will understand were I'm coming from, enjoy.....
i´m crying, and i will cry for many days because i know how hard times she was having i feel related, so much pain in a beautiful soul, god, she was a warrior but a human,
scorn not her simplicity
Totally amazing beautiful and the best voice.. that I have ever heard. I have 8 of her 11 albums. Had the chance to get her autograph once in the martello hotel in bray. But.. loved her so much..

😢😢😢❤
So moving, so important, only someone with soul can sing such a song- thank you Sinead
I cried when I first heard this. Our son has Austism and I can relate to the sentiments of this song.
I believe Sinead knew that each child, each person is Sacred Soul manifest on Earth for a life of experience...you can hear it whenever she sings. God rest her sacred Soul
I have known this song for many years, and it is as magical today as it ever was! Sinead O'Connor delivers it magnificently.

great words. "He won't ask for your pity or your sympathy, but surely you should care."
Beautiful song, beautiful voice, Sinead hope you finally find the peace in death you where always searching for here on this earth, R.I.P
heartbreaking when i listen to this song I felt also lost with my autistic son
Beautiful song :) I listened to this as a child and loved it, but didn't really "get" it. Now, as the mother of a special needs little girl, this song really brings out emotion.
beautiful song.....these chlildren are often cast to the side by parents who don't realize how special they are and how there lives will be enriched by them.
One of her best covers.
What a beautiful version of this fantastic song....makes me cry everyone I hear it.....thank you Sinead....you are beautiful.
I thought there was only one person who could sing this song Luke Kelly but i was wrong!!! It took till she died for everyone to realise how great of a singer she really was!!! It like the old saying you never miss your water till your well runs dry!!! R.I.P Sinead hope you're at peace with Shane in the amys of a Angel...
very angelic voice -sinead is blessed...and now she has 4 wonderful kids..to take care and love her...she is really an angel who brought us Nothing Compares 2 U...such a beautiful woman inside ... and out---shaved head lady rocks!!!!!
A lovely piece of music
my heart go's out to you...... my boy has cerebral palsy and is the apple of my eye, i'd gladly die a thousand times for him to be well........
I hope you’ve been doing good sir. You never know true love till you have a child. Many prayers to you and your son.
When a singer sings a song that deeply affects others and encourages, supports and empathizes with a vast number of people..... well, that's what being an artist really is, isn't it.
❤
Such purity in her voice. Sod power ballads.Sinead gets the message across with grace.
What a angel sound ....
This song brings tears to my eyes. How can we understand the world of someone incapable of communicating in our way? Even in his isolation, this child is still a human deserving of respect and love.
Sinead is absolutely beautiful singing this. Love the fact you can hear her Irish Accent as she sings. Very moving.
Fanstastic, whatever people have to say about her, she is truly talented. A wonderful song written by Phil Coulter. Truly beautiful.
RIP Sinead❤
I often listen to this song brings hairs upon my arms to a stand beautifully sung and in my opinion the best effort since Luke Kelly The Dubliners (R.I.P) lovely Sinead.

Such an utterly heartbreakingly soulful voice...
Many people have passed through a dark time in their lives, made mistakes...that doesn't mean they aren't capable of realizing it, taking responsibility for it, and moving beyond it.
Não desprezo sua simplicidade uma linda canção, interpretada por uma cantora excepcional ! Essa vai deixar saudades😢😢😢 😢
Rest in peace up there with my brother Charles and Christy,yous all when around the same time, in my opinion Two great singers and Charles can sing no problem ,all my love Charles you'll never be forgotten,Y.W.N.A
Luke Kelly would be so proud to hear this song
Luke shows Ireland - Sinead shows herself
RIP, Sinead...
so simple and yet so extraordinary... this song is so so beautiful. My nephew has deletion 1p36 and he is the most wonderful little angel...
thanks for the lyrics and for the feelings, that bring this song to me, sinead.
I guess, no one wishes to get a child with a handicap. But if, we should try to love it all the more. Love, for me, is the meaning of life.
Such a beautifully angelic and expressive voice in a perfect interpretation of Phil Coulter's lyric about his autistic child.
karmapeach Some children suffer from both conditions........it matters not......the words mean everything and this version is simply superb.
My brother has cerebral palsy. This song made me cry.

Sinead is a genius and a beatiful soul.
As with many songs she's covered, Sinead sings with such authority I never questioned whether or not she had penned these lyrics; same with McTell's Streets of London. The passion in her voice convinces me.
Very strong statement and so very right. I was just wondering if she wrote it or not.
Sergio Cabezuela No she didn't write this beautiful song.... Paddy Reilly did it years before, but her version is great. I don't know who composed this masterpiece.
Vincent Baine Same with Bob Dylan's "I Believe In You": Magical.
Phil Coulter wrote this about his son who had Downs Syndrome.
pauline draper paddy Reilly didn't write it. Phil Coulter did. It was written about his son with downs syndrome
I love you Sinead ❤ Rest in peace sweetheart
no problem. It's good to find such understanding people instead of those who just bully and tease because of differences. have a nice day!
Beautiful song sung by a fantastic artist.
She has the most beautiful eyes!!
Yes, hard not to cry! I haven't listened to this song for years..and today, the same feelings....love this
this song touched me when i needed it,
and has again tonight. thankyou
RIP sweet soul.
