She had a troubled life but in the last interview with her I read - maybe a couple of years back - she seemed to be in a better place.

Such a fantastic talent. Was only listening to some of her stuff a couple of days ago. The raw aggression of her lyrics and her voice then juxtaposed with evident tenderness still blows my mind 30+ years after first hearing the Lion & the Cobra album in the mid 80s.

That song. One of those songs that just transcends musical tastes. Defy anyone to watch that music video and not feel something.

I never realised it was actually a Prince song.

RIP

Very sad. Nothing compares to you is one of the first proper songs I learnt on my acoustic guitar and used to sing. Very powerful lyrics and her version of it is phenomenal.

Very sad. No info on cause yet but she was obviously in a dark place after her son took his own life last year, and her last tweet reflected that.

Heartbreaking.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

I'd say I had forgotten she tore up a picture of the Pope, but I was only 7 or so. However, seeing it again all over twitter it's still such a powerful image.

Lots of tributes paid to her which really add dimension beyond the Nothing Compares 2 U cover.

Very sad
Prince gave her that song as he said only she could do it justice which says how talented she was.
Loved her tracks with Massive Attack too

Very sad. As others have said, she had a very troubled life and the death of her son was very hard for her.

I had Now 10 on in the car just this morning and Mandinka came on. Great track.

And Shane McGowan's been ill in hospital too.

Sinead had the voice of an angel.
Music is much the poorer. :-(

I remember a wonderful version of 'All kind of everything' she did with Terry Hall. Both now sadly gone. Sad week.

I'm quite shocked that she was only 56. Must have been much younger in her early-90s pomp than I thought. Very sad given her troubles.

I can't say I was a massive fan but my Mrs liked her so she was occasionally in the background.

I didn't realise she was abused by her mother until I read of it today, also didn't realise she lost her son through suicide last year.

I knew she had mental issues and to be quite honest given the two bits I mention above, the poor old bird is probably better off where she now is. At least she might hopefully get some peace.

I youtubed a couple of her tracks just now and it was noticeable that 50% of the messages / comments were foreign, all over the world in fact.

Seems she had quite a span. Fair play and RIP.
