I don't know specifically about MAD's mocking O'Connor, but I'm guessing it was just part of the backlash she received for calling out the Church and the Pope for the cover up of the rampant child abuse, molestation and rape by priests and other Church authorities, and the Church's protection, for many years, of the perpetrators. She did this in her appearance on SNL, which is probably why SNL came to mind for you in connection with her. For telling a truth people didn't want to hear, she was cruelly and hatefully reviled, mocked, threatened and derided-- figuratively crucified-- ironically receiving the figurative version, for her truth telling, as Jesus literally received for his. Here's an excerpt about it from a New York Times article: July 27, 2023 Americans began to grapple with a nationwide epidemic of child abuse in Catholic parishes and other religious organizations in 2002, after a landmark Boston Globe investigation revealed a pattern of misdeeds and cover-ups in Boston that went back decades. Ten years earlier, Sinead O’Connor became a pop culture pariah in the United States for an on-air protest intended to raise awareness of the same problem. The backlash to her actions - tearing up a picture of Pope John Paul II on “Saturday Night Live” and then shouting “Fight the real enemy!” - was swift. Prominent Americans, including celebrities like Madonna and Joe Pesci, denounced her. Protesters brought a 30-ton steamroller to crush her cassettes in Rockefeller Center. Catholic leaders were outraged, including some who were forced to resign years later for their roles in covering up abuse. Many people in America derided her as “somebody looking for attention,” said Cahir O’Doherty, the arts editor of The Irish Voice, an Irish diaspora newspaper in New York City. “It never occurred to anyone that maybe she had a point,” he added. www.nytimes.com/2023/07/27/nyregion/sinead-oconnor-childhood-abuse.html#:~:text=Ten%20years%20earlier%2C%20Sinead%20O,enemy!%E2%80%9D%20%E2%80%94%20was%20swift. p.s. I think she's more beautiful with very short hair, which, imho, is often the case for people with very beautiful, or very interesting (or both) features.

[@spikebeans9563]

Her appearance on SNL when she tore up the Popes photo on TV and openly ousted the catholic church is the reason SNL continues to make fun of her. 😢 they ruined her life over speaking about the truth back then, hmmm sounds like today's world😢. She has an angelic voice. Very very beautiful lady. RIP Sinead.

This song was written by Prince. Made famous by Sinéad and covered beautifully by Chris Cornell. Sinéad died recently. She was a unique and amazing artist whose career suffered after she based the Catholic Church on SNL ( for priests sexual abuse cover up.) She was ahead of her time. In recent years She struggle with mental health issues exacerbated by the death of her 17 year old son to suicide last year. RIP to an amazing artist, with a powerful voice and a gentle soul.

[@susanspande6079]

They made fun of her because she was willing to tell truths others were not ready for. Rip up a picture of the Pope on SNL? Twenty years later we learn about clergy abuse and the Magdalene Launderies. Then there's the Bobcat Goldthwait line, "If she's not a witch, I'm a toaster!" Gone too soon to suicide. Rest in peace.

[@pauletteraspberry2923]

I still cry when I watch this. Her life was so sad especially after her SNL performance. She was right and as we hear more and more about the cover ups, I think she would get a different reaction today. She was a tortured soul and loosing her son to suicide made things worse. She didn’t deserve to die feeling that way.

Only forgotten first performers are left. One of them long rumored to be the song's inspiration.

[@kittenklub1964]

Thank you from Ireland for your reaction☘We are mourning our beautiful Daughter Sinéad💔 Sinéad was a force of nature with unmatched talent, but she was also very fragile. Please react to her live acapella performance of 'I Am Stretched On Your Grave' - a 17th-century Irish poem that she transformed with just her voice and a 'beat box' sample; She was keening for our Country & it is pure perfection. The media and music industry cruelly shunned her for speaking THE TRUTH about the catholic abuse of innocent Irish children, including herself & she was eventually proven CORRECT - now an acknowledged fact globally. But the damage was already done to her and her career. I hope they're proud of their relentless victim shaming of a 23 year old girl who was brave enough to speak out. Rest easy sweet Sinéad - I hope you're finally at peace with your beloved son, Shane💚

[@KaiOcean]

She was a child abuse victim and was tired of of being sexually objectified as a female performer. So she shaved her head in hopes of stopping the negative attention. Obviously, that didn’t work…she’s as beautiful as ever. Then her SNL performance made her a pariah. She got death threats etc. She told the truth but continued to be vilified. She was 100% right about exposing Catholic Church’s coverups and is owed an apology by all who taunted her. Rest in love Sinead. ❤

[@brandy012173]

I still think the whole world owes her a giant apology. Unfortunately she is no longer here to hear it. She was obviously an extremely sensitive person, and I think all the gag jokes and hate that wrecked her life most very likely shortened her life. She put herself ALL THE WAY OUT THERE, and what happened back to her? Being mean to someone who can’t even see you is just plain-ass BAD. Like, DONT DO IT, okay? And do NOT listen to people who tell you to kill yourself either, okay? SHE WAS SO PRETTY. Drop-dead gorgeous! How could anyone watch her face and hear what she’s saying, then make fun of her. What was wrong with everybody?? Personally, she stunned me from the start, that first day this video came out on MTV all those years ago. And it still does. ❤️ RIP

[@tyostroff4259]

Thank you Prince for writing such a heartbreaking and beautiful ballad.

[@Sir_Blobfish]

Absolute classic. Written by the master, Prince, put on the map by Sinead and perfected by Chris Cornell. All May they rest in peace.

[@karenfryberger4260]

Written and performed by Prince. There's an official VEVO video of Prince and The New Power Generation (Prince - Nothing Compares 2 U / Live at Paisley Park 1999). There are a couple other live videos of Prince performing as well. He wrote the song in 1984. I think he once used this as an example of what "covered" means - as in a song is so covered, the original artist starts to be forgotten. That said, Sinead did a beautiful rendition, and Chris Cornell's is hauntingly stunning. RIP to all three.

Love the attitudes she displays while singing with such passion. Sinead veers from fierce to tender over and over again interpreting the lyrics. Captivating.

[@cliffwheeler7357]

What kills it for me is near the end, when the tear rolls down her cheek. I have yet to hear any of the reactors who have viewed the same video mention it. That moment proves how passionate she is about the lyrics of the song. She was an amazing woman, they broke the mould when Sinéad entered this world.

[@BooksNCamping]

You will not be disappointed. Her voice was angelic. This track is so beautiful and haunting. It’s a shame that her career was derailed because of her outspokenness. People lost their minds when she ripped up that picture of the Pope. Just found your channel, and I’ve had the absolute best time watching your reactions. Just saw Heart cover of Led Zeppelin.

I remember when this came out in 1990. People were gobsmacked. As for Sinéad ripping up the Pope’s picture, she was calling him out for turning a blind eye to all the sexual abuse by the Catholic clergy…and it continued to be covered up for a LONG time until the incidents were just to frequent to ignore any more. She was RIGHT but she paid a heavy price for her bravery. Such a shame.

[@Hippichik73]

Probably the most beautiful love song ever written. #Prince

[@girlcheck]

Prince wrote this song about his housekeeper. She had to leave to take care of family. He missed her greatly. She would cook his favorite dishes, worked in the garden and placed fresh flowers around the house all the time. She made a home for him and was someone to come home to after the long road. She was like a mother to him and cared for him like no one else could or understand 💕

She poured so much of herself into every performance that I'm surprised there was anything of her left when she passed.
