One thing about this song and Sinead : she definitely knew how to call out a liar, and she always gave the world her authentic self. She was truly an artist. RIP Sinead. You left world too soon.

[@patriciathewisher2315]

An utter force of Will song full of magic and youth and beauty and anger.

[@redrocks1983]

At 19, I bought 'The Lion and the Cobra' in Chicago. I've never stopped listening to Sinéad over the last 35 yrs. I'm proud to be a fellow Gen-X'er. I'm trying to help make a difference.

[@jackiecartwright9343]

OMG! Prettiest voice i have ever heard! And the passion, strength & ease it flows out of her mouth is chilling! This is the first recording that i have heard, live or studio, that does her justice. Cant get enough, goosebumps throughout every song this girl writes and sings!!!

Ben oui, ça fait 31 ans que cette gamine rebelle a écrit et composé cette merveille apparue sur son premier album en 87. Et ça me fait toujours autant frissonner par la rage qu'elle y met... long life Sinead

WONDERFUL SINÉAD WHERE ARE YOU?

Incredible performance

[@amccrory100]

So talented.

[@Searchinmano]

the best song ever

[@WelLRoundeDSquarE]

This song is absolutely amazing. What makes me cry, is what I the song says to me. I can't stop feeling as though it's about the man that molested her as a child. If anyone here knows the true origin of this deeply emotional song, please reply. Thank you Sinead, for sharing your deepest, most real emotions with us. God Bless you.

[@edgaraguilar6998]

She say a lot of times this song is about her mother

[@VParadiseD]

I'll remember it And Dublin in a rainstorm And sitting in the long grass in summer Keeping warm I'll remember it Every restless night We were so young then We thought that everything We could possibly do was right Then we moved Stolen from our very eyes And I wondered where you went to Tell me when did the light die You will rise You'll return The phoenix from the flame You will learn You will rise You'll return Being what you are There is no other Troy For you to burn And I never meant to hurt you I swear I didn't mean Those things I said I never meant to do that to you Next time I'll keep my hands to myself instead Oh, does she love you What do you want to do? Does she need you like I do? Do you love her? Is she good for you? Does she hold you like I do? Do you want me? Should I leave? I know you're always telling me That you love me Just sometimes I wonder If I should believe Oh, I love you God, I love you I'd kill a dragon for you I'll die But I will rise And I will return The Phoenix from the flame I have learned I will rise And you'll see me return Being what I am There is no other Troy For me to burn And you should've left the light on You should've left the light on Then I wouldn't have tried And you'd never have known And I wouldn't have pulled you tighter No I wouldn't have pulled you close I wouldn't have screamed No I can't let you go And the door wasn't closed No I wouldn't have pulled you to me No I wouldn't have kissed your face You wouldn't have begged me to hold you If we hadn't been there in the first place Ah but I know you wanted me to be there oh oh Every look that you threw told me so But you should've left the light on You should've left the light on And the flames burned away But you're still spitting fire Make no difference what you say You're still a liar You're still a liar You're still a liar

[@WelLRoundeDSquarE]

Bill, Thanks so much for taking time out of your day, to write down the lyrics to this amazing song. Your's are the most accurate I've found yet. Again, Thanks.... Tony PEACE to All.

[@patriciathewisher2315]

Sinead at her best

[@patrickcrady904]

[@knuckless69]

[@virginiaamandaromanirobles8627]

ESTA CANCIÓN LA ESCUCHO DESPUÉS DE TANTO TIEMPO QUÉ NOSTALGIA ME DA ES INCREÍBLE SINEAD CÓMO CANTA

[@rafaelfernandez2047]

amazing!!

[@prettykiray]

sinead!!!!!! I LOVE U!!!!

[@andyrint]

This was from her very first album (lion & the Cobra) many songwriters draw from personal experience for their first songs - my guess is that it's a very personal song to her. I thinnk this is actually being sung to someone.

[@dtzjones7632]

Brilliant song beautiful Sinéad i just wish you didnt have to suffer pain all your life🙏

[@vievinken9897]

pff...when you're 20 and can make a number like this..you'll be a great one when you survive..

[@777pusher]

Pure artistry transcends all of the character issues (or supposed).

[@marsvolta27]

[@Gemini172]

@zanex5205 Verry happy she did tho, her voice was bone chilling back then.

[@kevinhorton8617]

Planets best .

[@patriciathewisher2315]

[@patriciathewisher2315]

Un fucking believable performance and song. Probably her best song

[@karinaleles1004]

Canta muito! 👍like garantido.

[@tabo01]

Most singers try to sound like the studio record. Sinead can surpass them live.

[@leoniegray6404]

❤

[@michaelamann4951]

geile Musik

[@prettykiray]

@zanex5205 that means she is so fucking GENIOUS--not an ordinary talent...she wrote this from a very emotional moment..and it turn out to be a very good song with touching lyrics..but sad to sat they underestimate her

[@cranberrymerlin]

@zanex5205 my god, she's a genius!!! :)

[@denbal87]

In the audio version of this same performance in the end she REALLY screams "You're still a f*cking liar!!!" and here they censored it. Too bad.

[@elizabethdavis475]

[@lunatrics]

please please please someone. i really need this in the best quality possible. ill throw money at my screen. give me a link give me a cd i dont care. im going to be burried with this song. i need this cd quality.. i got all the cd/s. but nope.. not the same version.. i need this one!!! thx in advance

[@nachtmahrsmarchen3729]

lunatrics You can use the FreeKZbinToMP3Converter, it's a freeware. I downloaded it at chip.de (safe and well known in Germany) where it recently (a few updates ago) even came with the whole "Free Studio"-set where it is a part of and which includes other tools like FreeKZbinVideoDownload, etc., etc. www.chip.de/downloads/Free-KZbin-to-MP3-Converter_26495270.html But as you probably do not understand German I suggest you try to find that tool in English yourself or look directly at the 'DVDvideosoft's website; they made that tool. The link is below but I do not know if it is safe since I downloaded it via chip.de where all the downloads are normally checked well and safe. (So make sure you have an Anti-Virus-System running as that should be recommended in any case when something is downloaded from the web. Or have someone check out that download for you if you are not sure about how to do that yourself.) Anyway, the link to that english download-version I found is: www.dvdvideosoft.com/products/dvd/Free-KZbin-to-MP3-Converter.htm If that does not out for you for whatever reason just look for youtube-videos witht he topic 'free youtube to mp3 converter'; there are plenty of videos out there that seem to show how you can do it. :) Additionally you might wanna look for a tool called "MP3gain" where u can make sure all the downloaded mp3 will be turned to the same volume. (Otherwise you might find yourself turning your volume up and down all the time after each song due to the different volume in the youtube-videos.) www.chip.de/downloads/MP3Gain_13004894.html Good Luck! And enjoy the Music! ;)

[@jettparcher2234]

I'm numb suspended in an alternative reality unable to speak or reason

[@seanbenton8871]

I wish people knew why she tore up the picture of the pope, for not speaking out on abuse in the church and other things. I love this whole album

[@AwoudeX]

you mean to say that a 16 year old cannot have profound feelings and should be unable to translate those into a piece of art? every time she performs this song, she seems to poor out her entire soul into it

[@prettykiray]

why she looks sad here??? like nearly she cries in some parts of the song??? and i love her eyes......

[@patriciathewisher2315]

U should believe

[@ReunerS]

stolen from....... no return

[@copee2960]

...i wsh i was troy..

[@silviadominguez2353]

SoyMexicana y me gustaría tener toda tu colecion y Heres i favorita x que Heres tan hermosa ojalá pudiera conocerte personaente

[@patriciathewisher2315]

Gave a lot of downtrodden Irish women a voice. Irish children. Told the truth. She was dangerous af.

[@prettykiray]

is she having a cold here?? her voice is kind a harsh like having a cold--just wondering ok?? i love her..but i think she is crying or ?? i dont know...any help with her performance this time??? anybody???

[@dtzjones7632]

No she has to sing it with anger and emotion

[@greghunter8427]

Lets go Brandon

[@patriciathewisher2315]

She was possessed by something very important back then

[@Paleolitt]

Она и есть свой голос

[@seeslee6303]

Shame on me for being too dismissive of her warnings of child abuse in the church. If only so many (like myself) weren’t so ready to dismiss her, perhaps many children would not have been molested by prominent figures in the church. RIP.

[@Tumbleweedandcrickets]

keemo heed

[@patriciathewisher2315]

U R still a liar? Or a truth sayer?
