Lyrics:
… It seems like years since you held the baby
While I wrecked the bedroom
You said it was dangerous after Sunday
And I knew you loved me
He thinks I just became famous
And that's what messed me up
But he's wrong
How could I possibly know what I want
When I was only twenty-one?
And there's millions of people
To offer advice and say how I should be
But they're twisted and they will never be
Any influence on me
But you will always be
You will always be
If I treated you mean
I really didn't mean to
But you know how it is
And how a pregnancy can change you
I see plenty of clothes that I like
But I won't go anywhere nice for a while
All I want to do is just sit here
And write it all down and rest for a while
I can't bear to be in another city
One where you are not
I would return to nothing without you
If I'm your girlfriend or not
Maybe I was mean
But I really don't think so
You asked if I'm scared
And I said so
Everyone can see what's going on
They laugh 'cause they know they're untouchable
Not because what I said was wrong
Whatever it may bring
I will live by my own policies
I will sleep with a clear conscience
I will sleep in peace
Maybe it sounds mean
But I really don't think so
You asked for the truth and I told you
Through their own words
They will be exposed
They've got a severe case of
The emperor's new clothes
The emperor's new clothes
The emperor's new clothes
The emperor's new clothes

Show me anyone who was more tough than she was when she ripped up the pope's picture on SNL (ETC!!!).. I had no idea what it was about watching it live.. Being a "Episcopal" at that time, I defaulted.. Until I finally realized WHY. I'm 6'1 and 220.. Semi trained fighter and definitely someone who's left blood on the streets. (mine and others).. This woman's toughness and LOVE far outshine anything I am capable of...

“Maybe it sounds mean, but I really don’t think so, you asked for truth and I told you.” This and Mandinka are my two favorites. She made a lot of great music, and spoke the truth when no one wanted to hear. She spoke out about the abuse in the church and was vilified for it. She wrote “Black Boys On Mopeds” 30 yrs before the 2020 BLM marches. She spoke up for those whose voices weren’t heard and made beautiful music doing so. I hope she now knows the legacy she left behind and the difference she did make on this earth.

No. Troy is her greatest song. By far. Listen to it a few times in a row. Then let us know what you think.
God Rest this magnificent artist. When she first came out my husband and I thought she had the wildest, best music ever. I've listened to this album and Something Beautiful a thousand times. An artist wrestling the world in chaos fitting in her mind. This woman never had mental illness, she believed what they told her over a FB post. Her younger self would've flipped them a finger, wrote a song and carried on but attack her motherhood and you see the fragile, sensitive soul exposed. The best mother, the best artist, the best songs to carry on. I can hardly believe she is gone.
Spoken from your Heart . Years ☘️🥁🎶 ahead of today. Rest in Peace ☮️ beautiful
She was an incredibly brave woman. Not afraid to blow the whistle and piss people off for speaking the truth. For whatever her music might be considered, I always thought she embodied the spirit of Punk for that. :) Rest in peace, sister.
She tried to warn us. She knew more then than most of us do now. Sacrificed herself to save us. Thank you, Sinead.

I couldn't help but listening to this over and over today. Will always be my favourite of hers, and she will always be one of the greatest. She was decades ahead of her time, and this world simply wasn't worth of her presence.

Such a brilliant song that perfectly expresses her complexity as a person and skill as a songwriter. She's defiant yet vulnerable, sure of herself but also willing to consider someone else's perspective, wise but admits she doesn't have all the answers. The chorus changes each time, adding shades of meaning as the song evolves. The title doesn't appear until the last line, driving home the metaphor only after she's built out her world view. One of my all-time favorites. RIP Sinead ❤

@LittleDidSheKnow Sinead O’Connor didn’t actually write this song. But I believe it was written for her to sing specifically. Becos one of the unusual things we knew about Sinead O’Connor in the UK and Ireland at the time she became well known , was that she had a kid, already, very young. In fact she was juggling that at the exactly same time as national fame. And she quickly ended up a single parent too. Or at least they split up alot. I remember clearly she wouldn’t play the ‘female commercial singer’ game. Not at all. And neither would British/American black singer Neneh Cherry, she performed her song, Buffalo Stance, clearly 7 months pregnant on Top Of The Pops in 1988. That shocked ppl then. Neneh didn’t give a sh**t. She was like Sinead. She wouldn’t play the music men’s record company game. That female singers had to present to public in a certain way.

I literally cried too. I can't remember a time I've done that over a celebrity.

@@libbylou7224 Exactly the same for me. I don’t think I ever have done for any celebrity. Upon hearing of Sinead’s death though i was genuinely shocked & saddened when a news alert popped up on my phone. In 1987 when I bought her debut album on vinyl I played it over & over & over as much as I could. When she was touring in my area in 1990 I of course had to go & see her. I don’t remember a whole lot about the gig itself now but the highlight was very briefly seeing her backstage after & she signed a couple of her record covers I brought with me. I still have the Mandinka 7” single here where she signed “To ………. love Sinead.” Despite her terrible start in life & subsequent troubles in & out of the public eye, she always stood out from 99% of all other famous people, fellow musicians & celebrities in general because she never once sold out or did anything that she didn’t want to do. She was filled with an integrity & honesty that so many lack & it didn’t go unnoticed which is why she was genuinely loved by so many of her fans around the world.

@@weirdplanet1082 wow I loved reading this reply & here I am tearing up again. I was born in 1988, one of my 1st memories ever was seeing her on TV & being MESMERIZED. My mom said I asked to hear "Nothing compares to you" of course & watch her on TV all the time & I was like 2-3 yrs old. She will always hold a special place in my heart. I am now learning so much about her. I am a concert junkie so your story about her show is incredible to me what an experience. You seem pretty incredible too just saying.

@@libbylou7224 I’ve loved her as a person, her music & her voice since first hearing her in 1987 (I was 20 yrs old at the time & in-fact Sinead was only less than a month older than me as she was born December ‘66 & I was born January ‘67) I’ve always admire her for standing tall in whatever she believed in. She never shied away from the truth or telling it or showing us how human & fragile she could be at times as well. Everything about her was a 100% real as far as I could tell. How many celebrities or just human being in general can we honestly say that about? Without a word of a lie I’ll tell you that one of my all time most favourite songs ever by any artist or band is Jerusalem by Sinead. Been listening to it for over 35 years now & to paraphrase a title of one of her other songs on her amazing debut album, that particular song for me will Never Get Old.

Totally agree. She was one in a billion. Rest in peace Sinead.
Heard this song on the radio today on the way to work. I forgot how cool she was.
So full of emotion. Love this song. R.I.P. lovely lady 😢😢😢
She was right. I am a Catholic and I stand by the message of Jesus and there are many many good and sincere Priests who promote love and healing. But she was right. Drop mic.

She sure was. What we all know now, she knew all the way back then. The world owes her an apology now.

Her best song!
Rip Sinead O'Connor, thanks for the music memories! 😁
❤❤❤ lyrics lyrics lyrics, listen and learn.😊 Sinead, you rock to the very core, just hope people still listen and get it. No more empty music. Sleep in peace , with the Angels❤ I'll see you there,cheers 😊😊
Underrated for a Sinead O'Connor song? No underrated for one of the greatest songs of all time. I know she's had her struggles, with this she created a masterpiece.

Diria que o auge mesmo foi em 1988 quando lançou a música nada comparado a ti e essa música em 1990. The new emperor clothes. Bastou detonar a igreja e o Papa pra vida dessa artista considerada a "Madonna europeia" afundar de vez.
I remember buying this album upon release when I was 31 for the Nothing Compares song, but this song blew me away and is my favorite. She was ridiculed yet proved right in the end. Sleep in peace.
Such good advice, I took to heart when I was a teen. I love this song. RIP Lightning Rod.
She always was a badass! A TRUE WARRIOR! Rest in Peace you beautiful Soul! We all Love YOU 🙏🙏🙏
One of the greatest songs EVER fro one of the Greatest Albums Ever. This woman was awesome, and the world's a lesser place in her absence. Thank you, Sinead - yo were only 24 and YOU KNEW.
