Not the biggest fan, but still a terribly sad event.
Just 56 years old and as already stated, very troubled individual.

I saw her live back in 2007 at the Olympia in Dublin with Foy Vance as support.

Her debut album is still a brilliant and awesome album with the great Marco Pirroni on guitar.

Several real belters on there and I particularly enjoyed:

Very sad news. What a voice! Strangely enough I was only listening to the 12" 45 of Nothing Compares 2 U a few days ago and wondering what she was doing these days.

Very sad news indeed. Blimey. I’m sure I wasn’t the only one to be stopped in their tracks by this video when it first came out. Sinead’s version so much better than the original from Prince.

That’s a corker, as is her version of Don’t cry for me Argentina.
The one that really chills to the bone is ‘This is a Rebel Song’.
RIP Sinead.

Very sad. R.I.P

Unconstrained, unrelenting, unforgiving, unapologetic, cursed, blessed, just about everything possibly imaginable in one soul. A meteor whose light will shine on long after this generation, taken much too early. Terribly sad news. RIP Sinead O’Connor.

Very sad.

A troubled life, someone with much talent & creative flair.

Just listening to the duet with John Grant, and then her debut album Lion & Cobra.

Hope you have found peace, Sinead, RIP
