She was an activist and not a trouble maker Alan.
Acting against Catholicism is not rebellious, it is putting things and spirituality back in order. 🙃
Judge the tree by the fruits it produced.
What a poor pick for someone to be interviewed on her death!
He doesn’t appear to like troublemakers – yet that’s what Sinead was all about
Talento é dádiva de Deus. E…
Foi a voz 'cantante' estonteantemente maravilhosa !
que passou pela vida dessa mulher.
Julho 2023
a very unhappy woman – shut up.
She took a great deal of abuse for dis-ing John-Paul. Then it turns out she was right. She had seen it all around her in the extraordinarily corrupt Irish church. Both John-Paul and Ratzinger spent decades hiding widespread criminal abuse. I'm just glad she was around long enough to be publicly vindicated.
Troy is definitely the best song EVER ❤
Mossad Israel was maybe behind that
*LED a troubled life. C’mon journalists. It’s pedantic but get it right.
Proud to be a trouble maker….. me too sis me too!
She wanted to be with her son I think. I don’t blame her. She’s been a huge inspiration to me.
Re: "Troy", amen, brother.
I'll deeply miss Sinead O'Connor's beautiful soul.
She wasent an entertainer, she was a revolutionary,who changed the world for ever.childhood trauma killed her.the burden was too heavy.😭
I’ve been in jail been abused been a drug addict my life is perfect
The women was a loser
Innalillahi Wa Inna Ilaihi Rojiun, 🧕🧕🤲🤲
This journalist implies she killed herself. has the cause of death even been made public?
Loved her performance of "Mother" on Roger Waters' Wall Live in Berlin.
I have a feeling that Sinead never became comfortable with being born as the person she was. She grew up with a contempt for Irish society and especially for the catholic church that ruled over the country for more than a century. Unfortunately along with that contempt she suffered from the Irish malaise which hovers over some familys through shame depression and an overall guilt of being brought into the world with a heavy weight on their shoulders. If you are of Irish decent than you may have some understanding of what I'm talking about. If Sinead had been born in a different time in Ireland she may of lead a more beautiful life instead of the life she had struggled with since she was a young girl. Peace
She's going to wish she didn't deny Jesus because those who do, so to will Jesus deny them before Jehovah. No one gets to Jehovah but through Jesus.
You can try, but it will not work.
She will bend her knee upon the Resurrection and may Jesus forgive her and have mercy.
She was fighting the world. Sorry you will lose eventually. Start your fight with yourself and you are the only person you can change. From jumping from one religion to another is a sign of an unstable person.
This guy has no relevance to speak on this creative brilliant woman.
Troy is one the most haunting and devastating songs I've ever heard, to this day. What a force, what a voice, what a bad ass. Truly vert sad, but perhaps she's at peace now.
“That’s too bad, she was a cute bald chick”

Your videos always make me feel like I'm part of something bigger, thank you for that.
Beautiful video of Sinead dancing and having a great time, Band (World Party) Song (Private Revolution) year 1987. May She Rest in Peace
She was a raving nut case with serious issues
Omg, too soon. 😥
so well put ….hope she continues marching to her own unique drummer and is with her mom dad son
I am grieving for so many reasons. I resonated with her and always will.
For a "news" outlet to make her look troubled, that's a new low, never criticize the sockboy though huh? 💩😐😑😐
She was all over the place what exactly was her message. Besides being derogatory
Innalilah waina ilahi rajiuun

Troy is her best song… but poor choice of words Alan.
🤮🤮🤮
I love the stuff she did with John Grant and Massive Attack
May she rest in peace 💔
