  • I opened for Sinéad O'Connor at a cancer benefit concert several years ago. I never posted the video until just now. The video quality isn't great. But her voice is angelic. Here she is performing "Life on Mars" and "Sorrow" by David Bowie with Sons of the Silent Age at Metro Chicago in March 2016.

      Sinéad❤was An Icon as A Singer & Culturally & Historically as Well. She CRUSHES'S Bowie's song! She was worth 1.5 million when she passed. She was getting on her feet again when tragically she lost her Beloved Shane who had her face. I hope Sinéad's❤records/Online are Selling Big time! That'd Make her happy bc the money will go to her Beloved 3 children. I love Sinéad❤❤❤Forever. She was Incredibly Brave!
