Kris Kristofferson - Sister Sinead (2009)

[@johnkilty5091]

This is perfect example of how awful we have become in public. Theis was really bad and it is worse now. RIP Sinead.

[@ogaram]

The irony of people, who think they know what Dylan was singing about, booing a singer who was brave enough to expose the powerful.

[@ianrust8353]

Exactly

[@bronaghgrant5115]

She was silenced and canceled before there was such a thing

[@TheElainelennon]

A protest singer booed at a concert celebrating a protest singer. Intelligent crowd, eh?

[@AlanKelso]

A lot of low IQ inbred idiots. Shame on them all.

[@ronaldjaybelin520]

Dylan exposed himself, nothing more

[@michellepriore5610]

What a man!! Kris is and always will be a legend. His humbleness and his truth are why I have loved him since forever. I just recently heard this song he wrote for Sinead and like all his other songs, pure truth and honesty. Love Kris 4ever RIP Sinead, you're home 😊

[@KrisMecholsky]

And a farewell to Kris, too.

RESPECT/LOVE...........THIS IS INTEGRITY!!!...True to one's belief...true to her understand of truth... This is Sinead O'Connor...She spoke her truth...Truth today that has been proven correct!....Many do not like ugly "truths"...Sinead never abused another.....Abuse may have served her life on earth, however, never in our greatest higher ground ....Love you Sinead, may your lyrics from an artist be served today for those unconscious minds....RIP sweet voice ...the angle of truth!

[@MelanieShaw-uu3xe]

THIS IS WHAT WE DO! This is how we stand up against what’s corrupt what’s evil and what we cannot stand for. She walked in the face of the devil and spit in it! She was courageous and solid. She should be inspiration to humanity! Kristopherson is a man with heart and soul. Love him!

[@gypsyrose2720]

TWO of the best songwriters☀️ ...What a grande fellow.🤩..He once said Irelands audiences🍀 were his fav and the best to play for....he stood up for Sinead🍀 O'Connor on stage ... even wrote a song about her and the ill treatment she endured for decades... now they are having the last laugh together as she was right about so many things she fought for, as was he ✅️...both way ahead of their time in standing up for the underprivileged and the wrongs of the world again and again...⭐️ In 1992, Kris Kristofferson comforted Sinéad O'Connor when she was booed off the stage at a Bob Dylan anniversary concert for tearing up popes picture which was aimed to bring awareness to the church and ill❌️ treatment of innocent children. Sinéad O'Connor, just 25 years old at the time, was introduced on stage by American singer-songwriter Kris Kristofferson. He later wrote this for her saying... May we all have her courage. May we all tell the truth.🫶 Words to the song are: "I'm singing this song for my sister Sinead Concerning the god awful mess that she made When she told them her truth just as hard as she could Her message profoundly was misunderstood There's humans entrusted with guarding our gold And humans in charge of the saving of souls And humans responded all over the world Condemning that bald headed brave little girl And maybe she's crazy and maybe she ain't But so was Picasso and so were the saints And she's never been partial to shackles or chains She's too old for breaking and too young to tame It's askin' for trouble to stick out your neck In terms of a target a big silhouette But some candles flicker and some candles fade And some burn as true as my sister Sinead And maybe she's crazy and maybe she ain't But so was Picasso and so were the saints And she's never been partial to shackles or chains She's too old for breaking and too young to tame” You were both the best truth advocates we had💯 ...fly high and have fun 🎉playing whereever you are🎵kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXynd6mMnJikm5Ysi=ao60ZHB5I3UdFFWI

Kris And Sinead were very similar people. Both Believed in there Principles. Kris more famous as Rhode's Scholar, Helicopter Pilot, (landed in Johnny Cash's Front Yard to get his attention. Also a Boxer while in Air Force. Wanted him to Teach at West Point, but he said NO! He Wanted To Write Songs and Sing them! Kris ended up singing with Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and more.

except she didn't make a mess of it, she stated the truth and as history repeats again and again what we learn is most folk can't handle the truth, they'd rather worship the pope than listen to children. RIP sweet Sinead and dear Kris, truly an endless loss

[@nordlichtundstolzdarauf2384]

Sie ist mir immer ein bisschen auf die Nerven gegangen, mit dem Titel "nothing compares to U" Liegt wohl daran, dass ich nicht gut Englisch kann und den Text nicht verstanden hab 😏! Ich konnte den Titel aber irgendwann nicht mehr hören, und fühlte mich quasi erschlagen davon! Von allen Seiten tönte dieses Lied! Ich empfand es damals als regelrechtes Gejaule! Sry!!! Jetzt, wo sie gestorben ist, lese ich, was für eine außerordentliche Persönlichkeit sie war/hatte❣️ Wow, sie war so mutig und unangepasst❣️ Das ist so selten auf dieser Welt! Auch das Zerreißen des Papst Bildes vor laufender Kamera - absolut bewundernswert!!! Das hätte Respekt verdient !!! Damals waren die Menschen wohl aber nicht so weit, wie sie selbst?! Sie, die anscheinend sehr feinfühlig und sensibel für alles Unrecht war! Sie ist sich immer treu geblieben, hat sich nie verbiegen lassen! Das alleine ist in diesem harten Geschäft absolut erstaunlich!!! Das hat der Star-Branche nicht gepasst und anscheinend haben die Fans auch nicht wirklich verstanden, was sie eigentlich mit alldem meinte! Sie hatte ein schweres Leben, wohl in jeder Beziehung! Ehrliche und gute Menschen haben meistens ein schweres Leben! Sie ist sicherlich nicht umsonst gestorben 😔! Und wird hoffentlich ihren Fans durch ihre außerordentliche Persönlichkeit und ihre Musik in ewiger Erinnerung bleiben ❤️!!! Das wär ihr so zu wünschen!!! Mögen Sie in Frieden ruhen🙏: Sinead O' Connor 🌹🕯️❤️!

@@moc2034 oh, I didn't find it. Will search!!!

[@virginiafarrow4997]

Yes she did sing. ! She waited and waited for the noise to stop , Then I think pulled out her earphones and , I stead of singing a Dylan as she planned, sang again WAR, but so very loud and strong it nearly was shouting and the only time I have ever heard her not 100% melodious. AMAZING COURAGE

[@jazzmanchgo]

Has that version of "War" survived? I've never heard it or seen any clips of it.

[@matthewbell4273]

I’m probably being totally dumb, can someone help explain? Who wrote Sister Sinead? Who sang it on the video? Was it playing live on stage, or just an audio overlay on top of the video? Does it relate to her ripping up the picture of the Pope due to his failure to tackle child sexual abuse?

[@larryperezviveros564]

Kristoferson is the writer of the song and he was the man who embraced her the time when she was boed, ironically in a concert about Dylan, after she denounced the child abuses by the church, something we know now that occurred for sure.

[@matthewbell4273]

@@larryperezviveros564 Thanks man, appreciate it

[@golondrina62]

She was also booed for refusing to play the US national anthem before her concerts here. Ridiculous in hindsight but it shows you the mindless, empty "patriots" were around even then.

This was just after the SNL Pope picture incident. Some booed some cheered.

[@Wallyman918]

Because people are idiots and sexist. She had stood up to something she felt strongly about concerning the Catholic church. The media used her protest to make her into an easy scapegoat.
