I cannot imagine a singer trying to sing like this today, she emotes at such unexpected moments, now they autotune everything that isn't nailed down and she would be perceived as a lunatic...i feel so blessed to have been around when this was released, nothing proved how well 'rock music' was religious/ corporate status quo than her reception after expressing her views about we all know what
Hey everybody, I performed this song live acapella some time ago and have recently uploaded it on YouTube. I would greatly appreciate if you checked it out
and commented on it. Thank you so much in advance. link: youtube.com/watch?v=JRk-FxSstaE&feature=channel_video_title
Hey, Im not a native English speaker but iust love sinead's songs, would someone mind telling me what it is that she says at the beginning and at the end? I tried to understand it a couple of times but it's ust too fast ^^
@Rumo89 I'm American, but here's my best shot at understanding what she said. "seriously. I was terrible, like I would be in shreds if I didn't win. You know it was something like, there was no point in doing it as far as I was concerned, unless I could just wipe the floor with everybody else, and I still have that attitude." end part "Well I'm very obliged at how your portrayed or how you're perceived by other people no matter who they are It's nothing near to what you are."
Sinead, no he escuchado voz más hermosa despues de ti. Eres una de las voces femeninas de excelencia, tu puesta en escena es fascinante, única e irrepetible. Si digo que estoy enamorado de ti estaré en serios problemas, no ostante, eres la cantante a quien más escucho.
I am absolutely infuriated that Sinead is no longer on the "POP" scene. No, Absolutely NO, contemporary female vocalist is even CLOSE in raw talent or spirit. Am I am alone in my appreciation of this angelic beauty? Speaking and singing, of the beauty of the human condition, in one breath is a gift reserved for God's chosen. WHY IS NOT, SINEAD invited to ACL; get rid of the garage bands and just invite her and Sting.
Her last words say it all. Her personal struggles give all of us strength. Sometimes we wonder how or why some people seem "born" so awesome and wonderful. Well it's not so, everyone goes through a struggle, everyone's the same. I'm sure it's during that time that she found God. The True God I'm not talking about the catholic church.
I'm not sure. In "Emperor's New Clothes", which is from the same album as this song, she sang "when I was only 21." So it's probably slightly older than that.
A fabulous song and a fabulous singer. I got a great laugh a couple of years ago when Britney Spears shaved her head and I sent a photo of the disaster to a younger Irish friend who swore BS was the hottest chick on earth. After he looked at the pic, he said, Ow! Wow! Sinead O'C is so better looking.
And that's true. Not to mention that SOC can actually sing and write songs.
@Jamie10014 Britney wrote Everytime and xo wrote most of the others. ( half on her third album and 11 out of 13 on her fourth, Britney and Sinead are my favourite singers and I have all their albums ....all....
@Jamie10014 Then your Irish friend must have never seen Sinead with hair. She's beautiful without hair but, she just looks like an angel when she keeps her hair. :) As for Britney Spears... hell, she looks creepy without make-up.
Never could be mainstream, because she refuses to take her clothes off. There's no doubt she's more talented than 99.9% of the female "artists" out there. Like B.P. Fallon said, "listening to her sing is like french kissing God".
@Cigarrock I remember watching her do that on TV, I was a fan of hers then when i was nine or ten years old and that just made her my HERO back then...
how my l'il apartment fills with such energy and love from the voice that has found its way to and that pours out through these small laptop speakers. Sinead is a gift to all those who live life.
The trouble I have with this, and much of the material on 'I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got' is the prosaic, even banal lyrics. (I will meet you later in somebody's office/I'll talk, but you won't listen to me/I know your answer already.) It's hardly 'Troy', is it?
very cute and sexy, Feeling so wild my amazing sports body full of sexual energy!. I'm a REAL woman who wants to get naughty on cam with a REAL guy like YOU MY DEAR! I'm here to pleasure U dear,come to me! come visit me at ... FriendlyFlirts(.COM) ... my user-id there is Emily-aare chat soon on cam ;)
She could have been enormously famous and didn't really give a shit, which is totally cool, besides that she's probably one of the top 5 female artists of all time.
I had a friend that died in 1994. She requested this song at the service, but her dumb-ass boyfriend screwed up the tracks and played "Black Boys On Mopeds" instead. Funny to finally hear the song...
Wow, extremely powerful-- Joan of Arc on tour de force! She is the modern Mary people, look to the Sphere of Understanding, & She will sing back "Binah!"
Retardraphy ....FUCK....not even close ...not even close go figure you do the math, but i think your too stupid to undrestan this artist....go lesten to your Witney and Britney, BOY. GOD BLESS IRLAND.
zabyjaku FUCK WHO YOU KIDDING . WITH THE WITNEY HUSTINS, CONCRETE BLONDS. AND A MILLION MORE, BOY YOU NEED TO GET OUT MORE.TRY LOOKING UP JANIS JOPLYN.
Wow!!!! Yes, she does write MANY, MANY songs herself.... just because this is a remake of someone else's material doesn't make her anything less than an amazing, brilliant artist!!! I am so impressed by her, and inspired!
well this is all I can say about this woman: is is very very powerfull human...and thank God she is in good side ...I love her with all my heart. and may God protect her from Evil of this corrupt world...
I think she is a brave and fantastically talented artist. Dawnptrl is so right, there is no justice! I also agree with you Hjorqan67 but at least she has the bo**ocks to say what a lot feel
Why has this beautiful, talented, relevant woman's video only been viewed 2,214 times? Why has a song like "chocolate rain" been viewed like, a scabillion times. I just don't get it.
people watch crap like chocolate rain because they can goof on him and feel better about themselves. the power and talent of sinead's voice dwarfs their own, so they shun her
I know what you mean. I will never understand why people follow antiquated socially destructive comic book stories like all the Abrahamic legends that demonize anything that is different from their storylines. That goes for all crazy religions too...
Truly an amazing songwriter, vocalist, and a stunningly beautiful woman....
