    She's the best singer of my generation, hands-down. Her mother passed away shortly before they filmed this video, and she has stated that she was thinking about her mother during the entire shoot, which is one reason that the emotion is so strong. The tears are real, etc. It's a shame what happened to her when she got up the courage to call out all of the sexual abuse that was happening in Irish churches. She was absolutely dragged through the mud and shredded for trying to be a voice for the voiceless.

    • @danielkloberdanz6172

      Her "Buzzcut" is not just symbolic, but her stance that " No man shall throw me by my hair again." It just sucks that men haven't learned to listen.

      It is so sad, because she was right and just to call out the abuse, as we all know now.

    • @KreuzAlexander
      @KreuzAlexander Před rokem +5

      In fact, Sinéad's mother died in 1985, before she even released her debut album, The Lion and the cobra. Nothing Compares 2 U is from her second album, I do not want what I havent got, released in 1990, so it wasn't "shortly before they filmed this video". This song actually always reminded Sinéad of her mother and their rocky and unstable relationship. There are dozens of interviews in which Sinéad talks about her mom, and it's really heartbreaking to listen her story. And I do agree that the "business industry" really wrecked her career after she spoke out about the church and child abuse. But I think we should give props to her because she has continued releasing new music ever since. She never really stopped working, and maybe this year we'll have some new material.

The radio has a history of destroying good songs or artists by overplaying their songs to the point of nauseum. Once the song is out of rotation and then it randomly plays one day it is amazing how nostalgia connects with the lyrics in order for you to view it in a new perspective.

    She made that song famous!!! In 1990. Before that, it wasn’t a well known song. She said every time she sings it, she thinks of her mother (who passed away in a car crash in 1985) who abused her as a child. No matter how her mother treated her, she loves her and misses her so much. She ached for her mother’s love, and affection growing up. Her mother never showed her love, she beat the crap out of Sinead and her siblings. Most of Sinead’s songs, if not all, are very personal and emotional. She’s the most truthful and honest artist out there in the business. She’s my favorite singer, apart from Mercury. Screw those people who made her a pariah and completely chastised and ostracized her for telling the truth. Sinead, I will always love and support you!

      I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard

    Sinead O’Connor died today at the age of 56. Her childhood was a very unhappy one, her mum was very abusive. When she recorded the video she had just ended a long term relationship and it really hurt her. She was a long term sufferer of depression and bipolar disorder. It’s just very sad.I’m definitely going to t miss this beautiful soul.

  • @ginagaladriel
    @ginagaladriel Před 2 lety +6

    I don't know if it has already been mentioned, but the reason she sings this so hauntedly/sad/filled with pain is because she dedicated it to her late mother, her mother was not the best, and therefor why the amount of pain you can feel

  • @hfortenberry
    @hfortenberry Před 9 měsíci

    I'm the same age as Sinead and have loved her from the Lion and the Cobra. The song Troy (which you should also react to) got me through some heavy relationship breakup trauma. I was a fan of Sinead's when Nothing Compares to You came out and I STILL cry every time I hear it. I heard her say in an interview once that she was thinking of her mother when she sang the line "All the flowers that you planted Mama, in the backyard, all died when you went away". Her mother was extremely abusive and sadistic (they think she was a malignant narcissists) and Sinead always tried to win her love but couldn't. Then her mother died in a car crash when Sinead was 19. Her mother liked flowers in the yard so that line in the song made Sinead cry, which you can see in the video. Sinead was a survivor and a beautiful soul who broke the cycle of abuse and went on to help so many people. Thank you Sinead for all the good you did for the world and for being a voice for those who didn't have a voice. RIP sweet Sinead.

    I'm so glad you got a chance to see this and celebrate the beauty of the way Sinead sings this song. Given how much Sinead bears her heart, its no surprise that you got the truth of her delivery and its a reminder of the awful paradox that great beauty is often created by artists who have a lot of pain and issues to resolve.
    I was a fan of Sinead way back in time, and she even wrote a few decent numbers of her own, but with this song, she created a performance which stands the test of time and will be an ever lasting legacy.
