Lyrics:
Each of these my three babies
I will carry with me for myself
I ask no one else will be
Mother to these three
And of course I'm like a wild horse
But there's no other way I could be
Water and feed are not tools that I need
For the thing that I've chosen to be
In my soul
My blood and my bones
I have wrapped your cold bodies around me
The face on you
The smell of you
Will always be with me
Each of these my three babies
I was not willing to leave
Though I tried, I blasphemed and denied
I know they will be returned to me
Each of these my babies
Have brought you closer to me
No longer mad like a horse
I'm still wild but not lost
From the thing that I've chosen to be
And it's 'cause you've thrilled me
Silenced me, stilled me
Proved things I never believed
The face on you
The smell of you
Will always be with me
Each of these, my three babies
I will carry with me for myself
I ask no one else will be
Mother to these three

The angel face ... the fire in her eyes ... the powerful voice... the sweet voice ... the heavy lyrics ... the lovely lyrics ... her strenght ... her weaknesses ... Love you always Sinnead ...

[@Paulco67]

Ireland’s greatest ever female voice has left us. Sinead tried so hard but in the end, it was all too much. May she Rest In Peace and be in the arms of her loving son.

[@realcapitalist1462]

On the contrary, I'd say she moved mountains. It's tremendously sad what has happened but she packed so much into her life in the pursuit of justice and a better society for all.

[@baddrivers6807]

She was a great artist

[@in_light.]

Ireland's, but also the world's. I know there are more popular, female singers who are globally renowned. However, I think most of them (living) still can't hold a candle to Sinead. May she RIP.

[@karelle327]

Sinead inspired many. Remember hanging in the west village with my friends in the 90s and we were soooo obsessed with the beautiful fiery soul who taught us about the travesties of this world. Gosh, she removed the veil of ignorance. I was but a teen but I knew it was TRUTH. I love you Queen. You have raised the consciousness of a nation. ❤️💔

[@scorelineupdate129]

Real girl power

[@kybalion1367]

Sinead didn't die, she's just singing in other dimensions.

[@watchinvidzwatchinvidz7691]

She always felt like she was singing from another world & demension. She is unworldly.

[@simonzai7386]

To say I love this woman would be the biggest understatement of my life.I am still heartbroken months later

[@PeterYates-kb4hp]

Me too Simon. I am still heartbroken. I have been a fan throughout her career. I feel as though I have lost a very dear friend.

[@simonzai7386]

Thank you Peter I appreciate you noticing that.

[@stephanestermann7451]

Comme vous je ressens un grand manque, tout est fade sans elle. Sinéad, je t'aime ❤

[@ramseymansford2246]

I will miss her beautiful spirit so much here on this earth. Her bravery was unmatched, and this shallow age we live in was a cruel home for her. Her voice always brings me to tears, and I know we weren't worthy of her.

[@rethaherne8596]

You are so right.

[@Josefine183]

❤

[@YupIknowthatfeeling]

Beautiful words for a beautiful soul. I feel exactly the same. She was one of those people who is too pure and honest for the cruelty and harshness of some of the human race

[@AriesSagSexxx]

Pure Mystic & Magical

[@manfredthier1871]

sleep well, you beautiful irish angel and find your peace ... wherever you are 😔

[@NeelaBannerji]

This song appeared in 1990, two years before she stood before the world and tried to "prove things we'd never believe." The stunned silence after she tore up the photo, the boos and jeers when she appeared on stage at a subsequent Bob Dylan concert, the violent threats by Joe Pesci -- had she anticipated any of this? But she was determined to make us look at it all. And then, ten years later, the world offered proof. She was right all along.

[@ALICEMAYSLOVE8888]

I wish you said this in a real face to face conversation with me because I would grab you and hugg you so tight and with the same tears forming in my eye beds I would say let's sit and chat it up some in her honor. Heart broken yes, but it's a world we live in that silences the brave and gives glory to the wicked. Soon Justice of the unseen Almighty will as Daniel 2:44 says put an end to it... That's the only hope we have. 😢❤

[@exquisitebiscuit]

My absolute favorite Sinead O'Connor song ever! It's beautiful, haunting, passionate, fierce and vulnerable.

[@MrRedNYC]

From pain to rage, her voice is not of this world

[@keetahbrough]

oh. but she is and was of this world. Very humble, she was.

[@kelvinbutler4351]

It's unbelievable how talented she was. So sad. Gutted

[@gregslow1]

Rest in peace, dear Sinead. You're held in so many people's hearts.

[@bellaluce7088]

You can die, but you can't unlive. And my god, did she live! Such heart, genius, strength, and conviction. A true hero. Thank you, Sinead! ❤

Would to have heard Sinead & Dolores O'Riordan do a duet!! Now I'll have to wait till I get there.!

[@Glesga_lassie]

Watching this for the first time, after the terribly sad news of her passing today. I'd never heard it, which I'm gutted about as I lost a baby to stillbirth so every single word resonates through me. I know she will be reunited with her babies, and her son ❤

[@antkowiak666]

To me, this one one of her most beautiful songs. Her voice is just so damn beautiful and powerful. You can truly hear her emotions while singing.

[@MrDrum1969]

It's on her album , I don't want what I haven't got . Great album

[@annameehan3527]

Her 3 babies are now adults. Shane was her 4th & youngest.

[@niamhmacmahon3670]

[@hugobossdog2769]

Oh Sinead, couldn't sing again without her baby, and without singing she couldn't exist at all. Great love and respect to you Lady, and you were a Lady, the best female vocalist, in my heart. ever xx

[@shiva_productions]

She was actually more than halfway through her new album, so she was singing and making music again, but yes, I think the grief took its toll on her heart and body.

[@hugobossdog2769]

@@shiva_productions Yes, I have read that her new music is some of the best she had ever produced, but Sinead said in her autobiography 'Rememberings' she was 'designed to perform live', she never sang on a stage ever again after Shane died, and judging by what has happened now it occurred to her that she never could.

her passing has struck me far deeper than I could possibly have imagined, and I didn't even know her.....you only need to listen and you can hear so much in that voice, just from 1:11 to 1:26, the range of pain and loss, I miss her.....

[@thecrowrains]

I cannot speak to what others may say about Sinéad but in my youth her angelic voice to me was also a warrior! Her voice, her deep gaze, and piercing words were for me a moment to stop. To recollect. Even during the chaos of my youth her songs were hope!

[@in_light.]

What a loss, may Sinead RIP. So sad for her struggles and losses. Her voice is like no other (she is the GOAT of female voices) going from such tenderness to utter menacing, even in this song. Truly unbelievable, every time I hear it. This is one of my most favourite songs of hers. An utterly angelic voice and she had such striking features - that face! Those eyes! I love her bravery and the warrior that she was. I was a teen when she became famous and loved her immediately; her moxy (understatement) was so out of the norm for popular culture and how we (girls) "should" be. I pray for her peace, finally. And I know she'll come back even more incredible and powerful in the next life. Also, this is actually a beautiful video. I had forgotten and hadn't watched it in years.

[@venuslamarr7230]

[@kimberley5963]

It's amazing how it takes being a parent to feel the incredible blessing of a child. I listened to Sinead before I was a parent and into parentage. She is the voice of an angel. I will forever listen to her love and dedication as a mom. She's amazing! Rest in peace, Sinead. God bless you and your son, Shane.

[@michelleobrien6996]

I'm still crying. Most of all I'm crying for her 3 surviving children. They must have experienced many difficulties in their relationship with their mother. Her recent inconsolable grief and now her death being the most difficult.💔💔💔

[@dreamingofcottontails6601]

Loved the whole album when it first came out, but, at 14, I was a bit too young to get this song. Now I'm my 40"s, & never being able to have a child live to term it has a meaning my child self never got.

[@ALICEMAYSLOVE8888]

Just over the past few days I have been able to watch or sing any of her videos or songs. I find it still difficult to mention her. It's a deep seeded loss yet again...The tragedy is while she was screaming for help and justice NO ONE listened... Very few of us heard her but our voices got smaller, our hearts beat slower... While our minds are consumed the absence of love for one another drowns out the human compassion so many of us crave need want. She was that human with compassion...she was a once in a lifetime voice that was warning us of so many unjust things going on and she paid horribly for her honesty courage and her losses... her absence her death should be more than just another memory... I miss and love you sweet sister, wish we could go for a long horse back ride and relax on the shore while you sing to the sea and all the babies who love adore and miss you. You are forever sadly bravely missed. You will Live Forever ❤ Love always Alice Mays Daughter
