Imelda May tells a wonderful story about Sinead O Connor about when they first met. Unbeknownst to everyone Imelda was having some family issues, but being the workhorse she is, powered through it and kept performing. Even her closet friends and family did not know what was going on with her marriage. So they met back stage at gig and exchanged pleasantries, then Sinead stopped, looked at her and said to her 'everything is going to be ok' and then hugged her. Imelda immediately broke down crying and released a flood of built up emotion. She said there was no way anyone knew but Sinead sensed her pain..... and that, my friends, is how you can sing like she does on this song. Even the Prince cover 'Nothing Compares 2U'. look how she brought a dept to that song that Prince even in his heyday could not match. Sinead O OCnnor, you are a national treasure

This song gained wide listenership in 1996 when Sinead O'Conner sang it for the soundtrack to the movie "Michael Collins". The movie, based on a part of his life during the early "troubles" including the famous Easter Uprising, between the then fledgling Irish Republic and the vast English Commonwealth that stretched across nearly two thirds of the globe in the early 20th century. The song was sung at the end of the movie during the assassination scene. What was so moving and sad was as you watched Michael driving to his death they would cut away to Kitty his fiancé searching through a shoppe to find a wedding dress. It is truly (in my opinion) one of the most beautiful moments in cinema. Michael was only 31 when he was murdered. But in his short life he gave Ireland and the Irish people a legend. A legend that says that he and a few brave lads put an end to 700yrs of English Tyranny...

She’s gone trough many tough ordeals in her life, struggling with health and mental issues, I just pray and wish her well. May she be strong, she’s always been a fighter since she was very young.
