Nothing Compares 2 U is up there with Imagine, Space Oddity, Rocket Man, Careless Whisper. Iconic

"Nothing Compares 2 U is up there with Imagine, Space Oddity, Rocket Man, Careless Whisper". Perlease, have a day off, it's an OK song but not in that company!

[ToraToraTora]

21:11,so we must all support terrorists then? right oh!

I didn't know much about her, apart from she shaved her head, but I'm always saddened to hear of a talented person's death and she must have been talented. There is no cause of death given, but the mention of the loss of her son. Was it suicide?
I'm not being sarky or anything else (in case someone thinks I would be) but I really don't know much about her and her music.

[royfromaus]

She was very confused. She was right to call out the Roman Catholic church for the abuse of children...but to them become a Muslim?

[pastafreak]

She was obviously looking for something...I hope she's now st peace.

She ticked just about every box in the Daily Mail reader’s check list of doom :-)

Tora is probably thinking of the single that was banned by the BBC (actually I’m not sure what he’s thinking): so of course I went out and bought it ;-)
She had that effect …

Here it is:

Sinead!

[Lie-in King]

Sad news, she was a fine singer. RIP Sinéad.

[Gromit]

Yep. Shocked too.
She was bloody great.
I saw her a couple of times and the voice was wonderful.
Mad as a box of frogs, but an angel.

[bednobs]

Yep, you really are thicker than u appear. You don't have to supports terrorists. Have you ever considered just not commenting if you find the subject it one you can't support?

[10ClarionSt]

Why was Toras'reply removed? (Just after 20.16). A touch of Faragism, methinks!

[10ClarionSt]

TTT has pointed out some truths about Sinead O'Connor but it seems the truth hurts a mod, then gets deleted. Come on Ed. Stop this Faragism.

[ichkeria]

Neither of the things Tora posted about her were true however I agree it’s a pity they were deleted.
The problem is tho that when you lob petrol bombs into an empty room a large fire is liable to break out and you just end up with a shouting match.

[gulliver1]

Brilliant,, No one ever compared with her voice.

[naomi24]

Very sad. Too young. I always thought she had such a beautiful face.

[William51]

This is sad news, " Nothing compares to you" is a classic which i always enjoy listening to.

[Old_Geezer]

Her voice & songs were ok. Her support of unsavoury types is what she will be remembered for though. It overshadows other aspects. And yes, hopefully she is at peace and understands her past better now.
