Our day will come
I grew up in the 80s and 90s in catholic house, so all I really knew about her was she ripped up a picture of the pope on SNL. I wasn’t familiar with her music at all. Then around 2001 I went to a Dropkick Murphys concert and before they came on stage they played The Foggy Dew by The Chieftains. I had never heard this song before and I remember being absolutely enamored by the ghostly vocals and having no idea it was her singing. 20+ years later I still get chills listening to it.
And for those who haven’t heard it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keWnPZOd2cw
Chills every time I hear that song…it’s incredible especially if you get the Chieftains cranking on a good stereo with that angelic voice.
It’s especially poignant now.

Whatever is on the other side, I hope she’s at peace now. She’s earned that much at least.

So sad. The world has lost a great artist.

Literally just listened to her yesterday. So sad.
When I first heard her on ‘The Lion and the Cobra’ in '87 her voice hit me like a truck, and it left a mark that never went away. She was 100% an artist, never a mere entertainer. Such a loss 💔
I’ve been bingeing one of her more recent hits “Take Me To Church” from 2014 these past few days. The tune of this song really slaps.
Aw man…that’s sad. Say what you want, She was herself and fuck anyone had a problem with that. Will miss her.

Very sad. She was an inspiration through difficult times for me. Rip Sinéad.
Ahhh… Sinéad RIP…Nothing compares to You…🥺
Has she been ill? I haven’t heard anything…
Her son committed suicide last year, seems like she followed suit
I fear that this is likely the case. I can’t imagine losing one of my children and wanting to go on living.
I wouldn’t be surprised. She’s had a number of wellness checks called on her
Low key this is why I’m happy I am an externalized. As I told my psychologist once years ago when I was going through a rough patch “it’s not that I want to kill myself. It’s that I want everyone else to die”
That said I’m not insane and clearly ain’t noone got the time and energy to kill the world nor is that a healthy thing to do. Lol
Well not with that attitude…
For what it’s worth, the times I’ve been closest to suicide I no longer expressed it as “I want to die” it was “I can’t live anymore”. I know it sounds pedantic but for me it’s a good indicator of when I’m having a bad depressive episode vs when I’m a suicide risk. Wanting to die means you still care enough to want something, if that make sense? When I can’t bring myself to care about life, death, my loved ones, anything at all, that’s when I need help asap. Everyone is different of course, I just thought it might be worth sharing in case someone reading this recognises that apathy in a loved one.
She’s struggled with her mental health for a long time.

Estate isn’t saying but she’s had a public struggle with extreme depression following the death of her son.
Noting compares to you. 🖤
