20 SINEAD O’CONNOR Pearls To Never Forget Her
27 July 2023
When the sad news broke yesterday that (in)famous Irish singer/songwriter
SINEAD O’CONNOR has died it hit like a hard punch in my face, a real shocker.
An unforgettable moment from 1995.
After going all over the internet to find out what happened, I went to my 20-track
Sinead playlist I already compiled back in 2020 when I made a lot of my-fav-arists/bands lists. Yes, I loved her voice, her songwriting, her presence, her dauntless outspokenness and I related heavily to her life-long struggle with bipolar health problems as I experienced them myself for years. It’s hell, pure hell.
Rest in peace, heroic rebel.

Keep it short.
Amazing Artwork! Nothing Compared To Her
Eye-catching album art
Artwork: Cover of Sinead O’Connor‘s 10th album
called I’m Not Bossy, I’m The Boss, released in 2014
The record was originally to be called The Vishnu Room, after the song of the same name on the LP, but was changed, along with its original cover design, shortly before release in support of the Ban Bossy campaign. It was a self-censorship action launched in 2014 by LeanIn.org. The campaign criticizes the use of the word “bossy” to describe assertive girls and women, proposing that the word is stigmatizing and may discourage girls and women from seeking positions of leadership.
Nothing compared to her…
