@tiemyshoes92 I just heard Roger (radio interview( talking about Levon and the album "Music From Big Pink". I was turned off for a while after the radio beat that one song of theirs to death (up on cripple creek). But your right...should listen to their other stuff which is much better anyway.
So to sum up all the comments.....roger waters is an obnoxious gobshite, sinead looks like she's having an orgasm, she has no ballsack and she sang great and rick danko and levon helm stole the show.
The original version is usually the best, but this live version of Mother performed by Sinnead O'Connor at Berlin 20 years ago is really outstanding. For me the best version of this song ever.
Regardless of anything and everything odd about Sinead O'Connor, her performance on this song gives me goosebumps. I can listen to this over and over. Hmm... I do listen to it over and over.
@petehanlon why does everyone think her odd, just because she is awake and aware of what goes on in this cess pit of a world ? Its a heavy burden to carry let me tell u...
esp with people calling you mad, when infact they are the mad ones for accepting the insanity of all that goes on in plain sight...
@SovereignBeing , I could not agree more, especially regarding the thoughtless followers of religion and politics. Once a person truly opens their eyes and understands, they can never go backwards. This fear must be what is keeping most people's vision so cloudy.
She has no balls... she was pretty unprofessional, didn't stay after the show and accused roger waters of strange stuff later on cause of technical problems... what else to expect of a egocentric feminist baldhead that marries three guys a week.
I was there. They had a private rehearsal the night before and I managed to get in as we had been camping in Potsdamer Platz for a couple of weeks protesting to keep the old no mans land as a park to honour those that died and so it was never forgotten. Anyway only about 300 people there and they did the full concert. The next day was insane and the fences came down hours before. It was just crazy.
@DubiousDude Sinead O' Connor is unique in every way-be it her voice, appearance or attitude. You are reduced to posting mundane and pathetic comments on the internet. Get a life.

@DubiousDude1 I guess you weren't even there when the Wall came down? were you even born? Sinead is a very rare star.. she mesmerized us all in the 80's. I'm so happy I found this video.. it's not just a song it's piece of social history and I am sick of people like you judging things and people from their very restricted ignorance filled little pedestals
@DubiousDude1 I am glad Sinéad sang this song, she sings and interprets it so well - it's great to watch her sing it.
There's no need to be such a racist, I'm guessing you're English - describing an Irish person as a "dog" will bring back memories to a lot of Irish workers who worked in England in the '60's, '70's and '80's "No Dogs (Irish) Need Apply". Yeah, you're English alright.
@DubiousDude1 It's an all star show - that was the point. (Roger only did some of the deep side 2 stuff). Who did you want singing mother? Brittany Spears? - who can't sing. Sinead was the highlight performance of the show and did a great job with mother.
Roger Waters and friends would have to step in and ruin a brilliant performace from Sinead :D jokin, brilliant all round, love the Floyd, love Sinead O'Connor
Hard show to put on wth all stars singing. Roger Waters did a great job and lets not forget this was at the actual Berlin Wall during the fall of communism. . Some misses (van Morrison, Joni Mitchell) were pretty awful but Sinead knocked this out of the park! Geat Job!!!
@theDopeShow1000 Yes - Sinead was GREAT here. Not all the others were but she was fabulous I though. Dare I say, and I am a "WALL" purist but it's Album worthy.
@leilarbabes69 Agree! Have seen this show a hundred times and a huge Floyd "purist". but all-star shows are hard and Roger did an amazing job. Sinead was the best at this show. I would go her #1, Paul Carrack (on hey you was great) #2 Bryan Adams #3 Ute Lemper #4 Joni Mitchell murdered goodbye blue sky. Awful. , Van Morrison were pretty bad too.
Nooooooo, this is horrible, totally murdered my favourite floyd song, sinead o'connors horrible squeaky irish voice is just not right for it, roger must have been wasted when he thought it was a good idea to let her sing this
only good bit was the guitar solo mid way through, must have been snowy doing it justice
It's a great song. . The band is a special touch to this master piece of a song. Sinead not bad either. I am a huge Gilmour worship ashor. I just love PINK FLOYD!!! My son is 11 years old & it takes me back when he wachted the Wall for the first time. He Freaking loved it!! Hell Yahhh!!!
Musical taste is clearly subjective, but some of the comments are laughable! Sinead O Conner's contribution makes a rendition surpass a classic. Some idiot earlier said he wished Roger was singing, look at Roger smile when she ' drops the bomb' on her lyrics!
I am not a big fan of Sinead, but she did OK. The background vocals were strong and the accordian player made this song even better than the original - at least musically. I would have rather had Roger singing this, but really Sinead held up her part on this.
@Onsube no faggety, I have great taste. That is why sinead sucks balls and ruined this great song. Roger admitted later that he should have not used her for this song. Get your facts straight.
@marsbars4 The only problem I have with the performance is the fact that the female singer is playing the male character and the male singers are performing the female character. Sinead O'Connor would probably have been a better choice for the chorus, but I certainly don't think she "sucks balls".
@Onsube for disliking Sinead. No troll I have great taste. For Sinead butchering a classic beautiful song it was like nails scratching on a blackboard.
@rgoodson979 The producers mentioned that, unlike the sound-check done earlier during the afternoon, this performance had an audio fallout glitch that left all of the stage monitors dead. The problem was sorted out after this song was through.The transition you hear from the previous song was edited in for the DVD release. They discussed stopping the show, but performed this song without any onstage audio. All they could hear was the acoustic instruments. Now that's entertainment...
Credit where it's due. Sinead O'Connor gave this performance everything she had. She didn't just sing the words she put all her emotion into it as if it were hers. A brilliant performance.
"It was very, very hard work organising that Wall concert but everyone was fabulous to work with - Bryan Adams, Van Morrison, Cyndi Lauper, bloody brilliant. All brilliant. Except for Sinead O'Connor. Oh, God! I have never ever met anybody who is so self-involved and unprofessional and big-headed and unpleasant. She is so far up her own bum it's scary. "
@motavation69 That's funny, I recall Roger Waters former band mates used similar words to describe him (i.e. big headed, self-involved and unpleasant) - he must have borrowed that line from them, perhaps, he should have borrowed a mirror from them back then and met himself.
Thank God, Roger is at least back on talking terms with David and Nick again. It's sad there was ever a split in Pink Floyd in the first place - they were one of the greatest bands in the world ~Rock on Pink Floyd!~
@musicartism Sounds like old Roger has some projection issues. Also, Roger himself said that during rehearsals Sinead told him to give the show broader appeal by doing one of the songs in a modern "street" or rap style. He replied along the lines of, "Go sit in the corner and shave your fucking head and shut up!". And Roger is dismissive of when the other guys in Floyd speak of his ego fracturing the band!! Well, he wrote some good lyrics until he decided he should be poet laureate.
@zorak1997 There's no doubt Roger Waters wrote some good lyrics - but he's not the best writer in the world. Anyway, no one is perfect and he certainly is not. Much as I admire him as a rock star and for his humanitarian work which must soothe his conscious some what, he is one person I would never like to meet, he comes across so overbearing, unpleasant and unkind in most interviews and when he tries to act all nice & concerned you realise sadly that he's only joking and faking it.:(
@musicartism Years ago in an interview Water said he was one of the top five Brit lyricists (all lyricists, not just rock) since WWII. When asked who the others were he "blanked". Eventually he said John Lennon, but no one else he could consider to be in his company. Roger had some good lyrics, but stuff like Amused To Death got too allegorical and esoteric and you know he thinks he should have won the Nobel Prize for it. I prefer Leonard Cohen as a lyricist and as a person.
@zorak1997 Well, I am not going to knock his music, because I have always been a Pink Floyd fan and have actually bought his solo records as well and will continue to enjoy most of his music (though not all of it), and I do admire the humanitarian side to him (which I believe to be genuine and not solely for show), but I just can't stand him, he's so overbearing and obnoxious and comes across as a complete gobshite, which he probably is, but, afterall, I suppose it doesn't matter at all.
@Kapselho Cohen never was and never said he was. I was pointing out an example of Roger's famous ego and saying in comparison that I prefer the lyrics and personality of Leonard Coehn.
@zorak1997 Y estoy de acuerdo con Roger, no es solo dar el "show" es el momento, los sentimientos del momento histórico.. y si eso hizo que Sinead no saliera a cantar en el concierto pues muy mal, el pánico esenico no todos lo pueden controlar, y la presión de un grande tampoco... Roger rules!
@zorak1997 Roger was the heart nd sould of Floyd buddy. Wrote 90% of the lyrics and there would be no "wall" or "dark side" without him. Floyd was a light show stadium band when he left. The other members happily cash theor residual checks to this day while bashing Waters being a "pain in the ass". well too bad....He WAS Pink Floyd.
@aitraining Hey pal, I don't disagree that Waters was essentially Pink Floyd from Dark Side through The Final Cut. And, guy, don't get me started on how Gilmour, Mason and Wright totally cashed in on the stadium tours that sold out based on the international reputation of Floyd that Roger created. Those three have no credibility with me, buddy. However, amigo, I still say that while Roger is a great lyricist that he's a megalomaniac and he's waiting to be crowned poet laureate.
Amazing voice!!!!

@rgoodson979 The producers mentioned that, unlike the sound-check done earlier during the afternoon, this performance had an audio fallout glitch that left all of the stage monitors dead. The problem was sorted out after this song was through.The transition you hear from the previous song was edited in for the DVD release. They discussed stopping the show, but performed this song without any onstage audio. All they could hear was the acoustic instruments. Now that's entertainment...

Credit where it's due. Sinead O'Connor gave this performance everything she had. She didn't just sing the words she put all her emotion into it as if it were hers. A brilliant performance.

fyi waters famously hated her performance
"It was very, very hard work organising that Wall concert but everyone was fabulous to work with - Bryan Adams, Van Morrison, Cyndi Lauper, bloody brilliant. All brilliant. Except for Sinead O'Connor. Oh, God! I have never ever met anybody who is so self-involved and unprofessional and big-headed and unpleasant. She is so far up her own bum it's scary. "

@motavation69 That's funny, I recall Roger Waters former band mates used similar words to describe him (i.e. big headed, self-involved and unpleasant) - he must have borrowed that line from them, perhaps, he should have borrowed a mirror from them back then and met himself.
Thank God, Roger is at least back on talking terms with David and Nick again. It's sad there was ever a split in Pink Floyd in the first place - they were one of the greatest bands in the world ~Rock on Pink Floyd!~

@musicartism Sounds like old Roger has some projection issues. Also, Roger himself said that during rehearsals Sinead told him to give the show broader appeal by doing one of the songs in a modern "street" or rap style. He replied along the lines of, "Go sit in the corner and shave your fucking head and shut up!". And Roger is dismissive of when the other guys in Floyd speak of his ego fracturing the band!! Well, he wrote some good lyrics until he decided he should be poet laureate.

@zorak1997 There's no doubt Roger Waters wrote some good lyrics - but he's not the best writer in the world. Anyway, no one is perfect and he certainly is not. Much as I admire him as a rock star and for his humanitarian work which must soothe his conscious some what, he is one person I would never like to meet, he comes across so overbearing, unpleasant and unkind in most interviews and when he tries to act all nice & concerned you realise sadly that he's only joking and faking it.:(

@musicartism Years ago in an interview Water said he was one of the top five Brit lyricists (all lyricists, not just rock) since WWII. When asked who the others were he "blanked". Eventually he said John Lennon, but no one else he could consider to be in his company. Roger had some good lyrics, but stuff like Amused To Death got too allegorical and esoteric and you know he thinks he should have won the Nobel Prize for it. I prefer Leonard Cohen as a lyricist and as a person.

@zorak1997 Well, I am not going to knock his music, because I have always been a Pink Floyd fan and have actually bought his solo records as well and will continue to enjoy most of his music (though not all of it), and I do admire the humanitarian side to him (which I believe to be genuine and not solely for show), but I just can't stand him, he's so overbearing and obnoxious and comes across as a complete gobshite, which he probably is, but, afterall, I suppose it doesn't matter at all.

@zorak1997 Since when did Cohen become a brit?

@Kapselho Cohen never was and never said he was. I was pointing out an example of Roger's famous ego and saying in comparison that I prefer the lyrics and personality of Leonard Coehn.

@zorak1997 Y estoy de acuerdo con Roger, no es solo dar el "show" es el momento, los sentimientos del momento histórico.. y si eso hizo que Sinead no saliera a cantar en el concierto pues muy mal, el pánico esenico no todos lo pueden controlar, y la presión de un grande tampoco... Roger rules!

@zorak1997 Roger was the heart nd sould of Floyd buddy. Wrote 90% of the lyrics and there would be no "wall" or "dark side" without him. Floyd was a light show stadium band when he left. The other members happily cash theor residual checks to this day while bashing Waters being a "pain in the ass". well too bad....He WAS Pink Floyd.

@aitraining Hey pal, I don't disagree that Waters was essentially Pink Floyd from Dark Side through The Final Cut. And, guy, don't get me started on how Gilmour, Mason and Wright totally cashed in on the stadium tours that sold out based on the international reputation of Floyd that Roger created. Those three have no credibility with me, buddy. However, amigo, I still say that while Roger is a great lyricist that he's a megalomaniac and he's waiting to be crowned poet laureate.
