Sinead O'Connor interview on Absolute Radio

[@catalunarocks]

what a beautiful, authentic woman, inside and out. She kept her soul alive in the music business after all these years. Brilliant musician, a true singer, and courageous voice. Much love Sinead!

[@maurocoimbra9624]

She's absolutely brilliant! What a sad loss!!

[@nefersguy]

She made me even prouder to be Irish. RIP beautiful Sinead O'Conner.

Love you Sinead. You are a true sister. Absolutely one of the most intelligent and true humans ever.

[@aislingnid5163]

Such intelligence and morals. Loved her interviews and perspectives on life and art.

what a lovely honest lady who has had a kicking for he beliefs! I love her,

[@elaskarov3350]

Love her singing, speaking, smiling, crying, just crazy in love with bravest women in the world ❤ always honest and truth speaking!

good to see Sinead feeling very relaxed and open. Love her rambling :)

Rambling! That is just chatting in Ireland.

[@dlggnation]

shes a very inspiring person

[@susannebogdanovic4806]

Fantastic woman way ahead of her Time. She never sold herself.. like all these do called singers do now a days.. shaking there butts!! You are a real Artist.❤️

[@jameelamerveliuex3440]

she is a fighter ,strong and a brave woman.

[@auntieree]

I do hope she was able to accept enough love to make her life one she felt was worthy of all the pain she endured. This whole world owes her a gigantic apology. She was very inspirational. We think we're entitled to know everything we can find out about celebrities, but it seems she was very good at protecting her children from the public. People will make inferences and assumptions, but at the end of the day, she was a good mother for wanting to fiercely protect her children from the 'business' she worked so hard at. It's sad that her childhood was so brutal.

[@birdiedog5]

She really was masterful at protecting them, and didn't announce that was what she was doing like say, prince harry, as doing so makes the press or paparazzi more interested. She was a huge force, and like Morrissey said, this outpouring of love for her has come too late. So so sad.

[@utawkinterme9428]

She is very enlightening and thought provoking, love her.

[@db4035]

Beautiful inside & out. All those arseholes that don't know the meaning of the word empathy that called her mad when she was at her lowest, she was far more intelligent than the lot of them and the people that loved her are going to miss her so much. 💔

[@heidiivy7090]

miss her tons

[@darioperes8923]

Every single interview with Sinéad is always very inspiring and true. You don’t get that from almost anyone these days. She’s gone through so much in her life. She should write a book about her life but on interviews she gives out so much that maybe she doesn’t need to or want to. Still I’d buy it and read it and pass it on.

[@margotmacewen]

She’s now written a book about her life . “Rememberings”. Just read it and it’s incredible.

Her passing made me explore the youtube and I found this. Love to listen to her thoughts. Great artist!

[@erlindaolsson]

Me too and it feels that I miss a lot. Grow upp in a Catholic country.

[@Mandola-Jane]

I love her ability to, lightheartedly, stay on topic while this man loudly waffles over her - in the beginning at least. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam. May your God bless you, Sinéad, you beautiful soul. 💜

[@artemiswolfmarslykos486]

[@katewilliams60]

I love you….God I love you Sinead. What a beautiful soul. So humble and sweet and brilliant! She had so many beautiful powerful messages for the people of this world.

[@isaross2710]

I love your voice! it's true. I've been living with the mental health industry for 20yrs and they all day the cliche there's no such thing as normal and then they expect you to act normal and then you go back into the community and end up fighting normality while trying not to get locked up! anyway normal is not something to aim for ie financial gain. I love you lots and thankyou for your soulful help. God bless you and may joy be with you all the way x

[@nini1772]

A Beautiful lost soul,now free fly high angel with your beloved son shane ❤😢

[@rokit430]

Lovely to hear Sinead talking about our own Soul writing the music, and that it isnt from somewhere Else. We have our own Minds, and for whatever reason, we bring our own Truths into Music. If something Stays with you, its meant to be a Song. Thanks for your Honesty and for Sharing your Soul creations with us Sinead. You are a beautiful creation of Dublin..R.I.P💕🙏

[@robbiepeterh]

I like how she doesn’t pull any punches and just lays it out there and challenges you to deal with it. Be offended, be defensive, run away, but deal with it.

[@yourshadows]

And she’s always done that! She remained true to herself and I appreciate it

[@LindaMorris-qj8ct]

Sinead no doubt is a beautiful angel in heaven as she was on earth 🥰🥰

[@paddybpaddyb9940]

I play on the streets, & what she says is right & I do truly believe that she could do it on the street where you have to be at least half good to get get by. She is straight up.

[@rachelleec.7572]

...and she's so right about songs becoming reality- music is powerful magic~ Love Sinead- thanks for the upload

@@geristracener5253 I think so, I got it from Amazon. It’s like Sinead is having a chat with her reader recounting all the horrible things that happened to her as a child and yet she was able to find solace in her music and her faith. RIP Sinead, you were one brave and unyielding soul.

really fantastic interview

[@dorissmith7072]

Such a wise person. The world needs so many more just like her , it would not be so insane. I stopped going to church lone ago because I found out the priest, was sexually abusing children in the parish. She stood up against that. The movie SPOTLIGHT , really brings it home to the truth. So she stood up to the pope , who knew all about what was going on and just moved the priest as well as the money . What a world we live in.

[@irissantiago7183]

Your ate such an amazing person. Can't get enough of you.

[@YvonneWalker-q4c]

She IS and always has been such an eloquent, tasteful,meek woman. Too bad he wouldn’t have stopped interrupting and talking over her. Either way, she was very eloquent and beyond her years in grace

[@DesIntrepid]

wonderful inyterview. restored my faith in Sinead. Finally she has realised that people like her music and if her private life's gonna be so whacky she's better off keeping it behind closed doors as it distracts from her incredible singing, songwriting and performing talent. Good on ya girl, I wasn't gonna..... but I think I might just go and book that ticket for the gig in Milan now

[@Sebastian-lo3hn]

I stumbled across this. and then brought her book.....I prefer the individual to her singing,

[@mediascribble]

Sinead O'Connor was a stand out. She has a lot of great concepts and thoughts, and unfortunately, for someone who has so much going on internally, it tends to get muddled in your own communication with yourself. You really end up not knowing what end is up. All that has to happen is real life circumstances can make everything come tumbling down. I truly believe that's what happened to her. Very hard to fix with the background she had.

[@tonyrobles2696]

Great SINEAD🌺🌹❤️💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

There is no other female artist like her anymore in terms of morals, intelligens and honesty. I wish she did live many more years but consoled with the thought that she deserve peace. RIP Sinéad

[@barbarakirk7964]

When she described the talent competitions in Ireland (not the X-Factor things) I was reminded about the 'Rose Of Tralee' competitions Arthur Mathews and Graham Linehan saw that inspired the 'Lovely Girls' contest in Father Ted! I don't think young Sinead was ever required to walk around traffic cones like the Lovely Girls contestants did.

[@paul07938]

It is like your charting your own course when writing, never heard anyone else say it though. you cant let the songs own you, i think you need to give them away. great fu**king therapy hey, and its DIY. She made a lot of sense there. respect to the lady.

[@69Ferg]

Why ask questions then talk over the answer with another question. Just count how many times he does this, almost, no in fact every answer is interrupted with another question. Now whilst I'm not expecting to hear amazing pearls of wisdom from her, I would at least like to hear what she has to say, but on some occasions here she barely manages to get one word out before he interrupts again. How do people manage to get the job of interviewer when they cant understand the basics of communication.

[@norcalgypsy]

major pet peeve. oprah does that

[@yoya4766]

MSM exists to push its viewpoint. Giving airtime to an intelligent person to actually speak doesn't fit that objective. That's why questions are often long statements, and interviewees are expected to just agree.
