Not a break up song, not with a Lover anyway. It is her talking to her mother who abused her in every respect, thus the Mama who planted the flowers in the backyard. It is a cathartic awakening. As a fellow abused, she had no way to understand what was happening to her, she just knew she had to eventually get away. Now as adult, she is finally ready to forgive, having dealt with the intense pain, sadness, emptiness knowing that she should of not be treated as she was, she (like most victims) as a child was still desperate for Love from her abuser. You are bang on the anger and frustration is part of her coming towards acceptance, and her realization of all the sorrow and loss she had to go through to become a functioning adult, still wanting Love from her parent, even though the pain given. She finally was ready to forgive her abuser, and become a fully functioning Adult within as well as outwardly.

Gives me goosebumps every time. She struggles with depression & you can really see her channeling that. Heartbreaking 😢

I've always admired and respected Sinead O'Connor, for as long as I can remember. She's fearless and will fight for truth and right. Such an unbelievable shame that she was dismissed as crazy. Rest in peace, finally. My beautiful warrior queen

Please consider “Troy” by Sinead - either the official video or the live PinkPop performance. You will be floored.

Over 25,300 views in 2 days. I'd say it's time for more Sinead! Her live performance of this is electric, and she made another award-winning video to her stunning song "Fire On Babylon" about her abusive mother.

Such a beautiful delivery of a song that Prince wrote as a way to get his favorite HOUSE KEEPER to return to her job after a disagreement. He never wrote with Sinead though they had a weird meeting once.

She is a brilliant and strong woman, she has put up with a lot for her mental health issues and views. Her tearing up the picture of the pope live on SNL was brave.

💜Back story on this song that Prince wrote! He said that he could write a song about anything & if I didn't believe before (I did but) I sure do now! This song is not about love. When he was in the midst of having Paisley Park built, touring & recording his housekeeper who basically ran his life but left because her father was ill. She took care of everything for him. He asked when she was coming back & was told she wasn't. The reference of " its been 7 hours & 13 days" is when he asked about her coming back. The "since you've been gone I can do whatever I want & eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant" is him being a bit reckless eating out instead of her cooking for him/making sure he ate right or at all, "all the flowers that you planted in the back yard all died when you went away" she made sure his house was run smoorh & esp. "I know that living with me was sometimes hard but I'm willing to give it another try", he wasn't the easiest person to work for esp. W/his schedule & lifestyle , but she was really good & he wanted her back. Genius!!!💜

What a haunting voice she has.. I think she was thinking about her mum that she had lost, which is why it's so damn raw and emotional... I love this song. Great track. Thank you for another great video upload. Really enjoying your reaction vids. Please try Kate Bush Army Dreamers, or any of her tracks. Thank you from England once again.. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

It's hard to call this song a cover because it was basically written for her. He had every intention of her doing this song as he wrote it. The tears were real by the way. The crying wasn't scripted but she started thinking about her mother who had recently passed away. The tears came and she decided to carry on through them. I've seen this video hundreds of times over decades and she still breaks my heart.

Prince had no intention of making Sinead sing this song. He wrote it five years before the cover for one of his side projects, The Family. Prince said to Susan Rogers that he did not like Sinead's cover and that in general he did not want anyone to cover his songs. Over the years, the two of them (Prince and Sinead) developed a terrible relationship. That said, her version, in my opinion, is by far the most beautiful and iconic. She really made this song her own.

@@danalynch8889 Yep. You can't "cover" a song that has never been performed or recorded. He wrote it but she performed it first. Most artists perform songs written by someone else. That doesn't make them a cover.

@@mckrackin5324 Maybe you're the one who should drop Wikipedia. The single was released a few years ago, but the song was recorded and released on the B-Side of the '85 album. Do you want me to send you a picture of the vinyl on my shelf? The fantastic world of the internet, full of ignoramus talking about things they don't know shit about.

I always thought "since you've been gone I can do whatever I want" is such a powerful lyric for how simple and straightforward it is. Especially the way she delivers it in this song like it sounds liberating but you just know that there's a lot of sadness behind it. She doesn't wanna do whatever she wants even though she's kinda bragging about how she can

I've read that Sinead recorded this with her deceased mother in mind. Bear in mind she had been abused by her mother.
