She was supposed to sing "I believe in You" before she was booed off the stage. Here's a link to the rehearsal version of the song. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aKlnp6Shmr6aiqM.html

Those who speak the truth are hated by the ignorant.

For all those people that was booing wonder how you feel after all these years knowing she was speaking the truth. And it's 2024 and it's still going on today and the sick bastards are still walking free.

She got booed onstage. She got annoyed. She angrily sang "War". As she left, she cried. Kris Kristofferson helped her on her feet. Very different than "Sinéad O'Connor gets booed off stage and leaves in tears." Must say... that sounds like the kind of account a tabloid would give.

There are great catholics, she generalized from very few bad apples that exist in all groups, there are millions of catholics that do good and they don't deserve to be maligned

"Child abuse! Yeah! Child abuse! Yeah!" Sounds really bad out of context, lol.

She was fighting alone, and she was right.

Not the same but I was sexualy abused in children homes we all was it was massive ring spanning 40 years they silenced us it wrecked my life trauma I'm bipolar split personality attachment disorder ptsd and add anyone who speaks out the truth using platform to do it good sinead what a mighty women thankyou ❤

she was outing the outrage that is the sexual abuse of children and the booing just goes to show how many enablers there are, it's sickening.

Everyone deemed her to be mad and unhinged but she was right all along, so was Johnny Rotten about Savile.

Dude, this was so bad ass. I don't know what everybody was so up in arms about. I mean if the womans message is going against child abuse in the church, wtf is everyone so angry about? And by the way, for her to stand there and give that passionate rendition, as if to say, STFU when all those people were against here, is absolutely gangster. Good for her man. Let the so called Christians of this country make their noise. I myself am a Christian but a real one, one who believes in right and wrong, no matter who the culprit is, believes in love and believes in forgiveness as long as the message is the right message. Good for her for standing up to everyone.

When I buy tickets to hear music and be entertained, I'm not buying them for a political rally. I go to concerts to break my mind away from all that krap for a day.

Idc what anyone says, she is and always be punk. Thank you for always standing on what's right. Calling on what is only being addressed over 20 years later. Rip beautiful soul.

Why does it has to be that when someone points out injustice and wrong doing, one finds so many obstacles ? ... you were right from the start. May your light shine among all us ... Rest in Peace.

In tears? This has to be a joke! She courageously faced an entire audience with singular aplomb. She finished them off! She didn't shed a tear on stage or leaving it, she was disgusted, it's different, and she vomited. Disgusted by the blind and malicious public and the shameful silence of the artists on stage, especially Bob Dylan. At that moment, only she and the wonderful Kris Kristtoferson showed they had balls among a sea of ​​cowards!

I never knew for years what she meant by tearing the picture..why didnt she simply explain her position and anger

Bunch of scumbags booing her. Eff all of them. Ignorant to her message.

The world most of the time were and are blind or indifferent. We never able to recognize a visionary walking among us, who able to see the truth and justice of our ways. Sinead was way ahead of her times and paid the price for it. Imagine if the world had listened, may be some innocent children could be spared from the abuse. It's tragic to honor someone only after she died but not able to appreciate her worth when she lived. Some of the people paying tribute at her funeral could be the same people who threw stones at her when she lived. The audacity and blatant hypocrisy of it is totally unbearable. These people dare to show their face to 'mourn'.

Some people hate the truth

Brought tears to my eyes, that truth, that courage.WOW. I cannot wait to visit her grave this summer to talk to her.

She was a precious, deeply feeling soul. Gone far too soon. I’ve loved her since day one. RIP our beautiful Irish jewel. 💎 ☘️ 🧡 🇮🇪

She could feel the evil energy of the world. So brave to stand so alone against it.❤ Nothing compares to her.

Im not catholic, but criticizing the catholic church for sexual abuse and then converting to Islam is pure hypocrisy.

She gave up everything for the truth such a legend RIP beautiful lady shine in heaven you always shined on earth our hearts forever diamonds are forever to live in hearts we leave behind is not to die fly high angel with other Angel's shine bright reunited with your baby boy Shane no more pain suffering in God's hands now sing heaven's out rest for awhile till we meet again rest in paradise xx

One of the bravest Women ever! All she did was call out the demons running this world! GOD BLESS HER & in Heaven she will do great things 🙏🏼✝️

And she sang on World Party's first album! RIP Karl Wallinger and Sinead O'Connor.

Her courage is absolutely astounding here!

What a total gangster!! She didn't look like she was crying to me. Looked like she just bossed it out like a champ

r.i.p beautiful soul you'll never be forgotten 😩 Greetings from Algeria!

what a mess lol

Those same people that booed her, grew up to send their kids to those same type of people. Some even take payments.

Behind the scenes ,she was a Arrogant person ,i meet her years ago when i was in the Music Industry

Prophetic. The people would not listen. They are now. RIP Sinéad.

She was one of a kind. RIP. ❤

She wouldn't let the people use her version of "Foggy Dew" during our rallies of Ireland belongs to the Irish, she was for open bordrr mass immigration of military aged men from the rich beyond imagining Asian continent, the abundant richly resourced African continent.

as adult who had PSTD for ever and on medication for child rauma and abuse, I feel so proud when a celebrity takes a stance for me..and millions othens. Thank you Sinead.

WRONG!!! Kristofferson told his Sister Sinead to not let the b*stards get her down, her response was, "I'm not down", she knew the power of her convictions. Learn from her.

I will always love her

Kris Kristofferson just exudes dignified badassery. Love his music and his role in the Blade films.

She literally didn't change anything all she did was end her own career. I'm not saying she was wrong but her delivery was. She came across angry and preachy very condescending and instantly ended her career.

That was a song? Sounded more like a rant to me.

She should’ve held up a photo of any modern-day American president instead and she probably would’ve gotten big cheers big reviews and bigger audiences. You show the wrong picture honey.

This is basically what SNL is like every week now. Bashing religion, virtue signaling, social justice warriors.

she was over rated

I guess that's what you should expect when protesting to an audience that payed to be at a music festival/concert...

Sinead learned the hard way that no matter how mad or how bad you want to protest your thoughts and feelings, it is not cool to do so in front of the world. The pope was not someone to tear their picture up. She never recovered from that childish display.

1:10 Does anyone know what was yelled in the background and by whom, right after Sinead tore the photo?

Dear God what was the crowd trying to prove. She's fabulous

Sinead O’Connor was an amazing personality with tons of courage! She was honest and pure, I wish her heaven..

The one song she got famous off of was written by prince

She was the original cancel culture victim

People were pissed because they just want their entertainers to "Entertain".... which is why we pay money for these entertainers to make us feel good and be....entertained! NOT remnind us of the realities of the world that are slammed in our faces as it is. I'd be pissed at some political bait N'switch BS too. LOL.

Her mistake was thinking that Americans were capable of critical thinking. Unbeknownst to her, this place is riddled with religious zealots and the blissfully ignorant. But, she tried. At least someone did that.

Mental patient

She also RUINED Knocking on Heaven's Door, by singing it like Guns and Roses

All she done was alienate herself if she had went the right way about this instead of acting insane she would have been more accepted personally I think she was off her meds for a long time

Does she perform at children birthday parties?

She new things back than that we where all blind to. God bless her and may she rest in peace.

And yet we think we’re so right in telling people they are wrong today.

What a remarkable individual- that the audience back then didn't embrace her is their loss- she still speaks to some of us through these performances that we are privileged to have recordings of.

Entertainers are, by and large, pretty lousy as political commentators. They should endeavor to entertain, not indoctrinate or propagandize their audience.

Wow she gave me chills 😢❤❤

Some people are just sick of virtue signalling luvvies. If your a musician, play music.

Career suicide tho. She prob could’ve been one of the biggest artists of all time but no tv companies would touch her after SNL and this.

Rest In Power, Sinead. A true *HEROIC WARRIOR WOMAN* who went to her grave with her convictions so strong that, no matter the consequence or opinions of others, she *ALWAYS* spoke her truth. *THIS* is what a real HERO is. One who stands by their convictions, beliefs & truths not when it's easy to, anyone can do that. HEROISM is shown in the face of danger, hatred & ostracization wherein one is left to stand up to the masses no matter what the outcome. Love *ALWAYS* for You, Gentle Gorgeous & Brilliantly Talented Soul Who was eons ahead of Her time & Gifted with a talent that was so extreme it could be considered *EERIE* 🌹🧡🌹

Total respect for Sinead. The booing is because people didnt understand her initial merssage. there was no mention of the child abuse in the initail clip and people have just seen an attack on religion that has caused so many wars. But she gave a heroic fightinhg perfotmance to get her real message out. The comments regarding changing religion she was only trying to find truth in life. She probbaly didnt need to find truth because she was already aware of the rights and wrongs of this world. The real problem is peoples willingness to blindly follow and to accept the wrongs of this world. What ever relgion colour, race it is everyone resplnsibility to protect the vunerable and respect each and everones opinions and live in peace. John Lennon Sinead O Connor singing and trying to get messages out

They won the minute she got angry . May she finally be at peace .

She's gone but what she exposed is still happening. That's so fucking unfair.

She dared to share the truth.

What did she expect?

She was right.

R.I.P. Sinead! The War goes on! Fight the real Enemy! ❤❤❤

Zero talent.

Can’t imagine burning in hell for edgy publicity stunt

Wow that took a lot of bravery to do that.

The Force is strong in this one 🙄

Unfortunately, when you stand up against something that you believe in so strongly, as she did, not everyone is going to be on your side. At least she had the guts to still put her message across before leaving the stage. A massive two fingers up at the booers in the audience.

I watched this on TV live and have to say I was shocked...only because she was right at the time. People don't understand world history.

Representing the effects of generational trauma from sex abuse in Ireland at the hands of the Catholic Church and its enablers. Brave she was. Sinead rest in peace 💚✌️

Kris would know, he got boooed of stage at Isle of wight.😂😂

"As artists I believe our function is to express the feelings of the human race, to always speak the truth and never keep it hidden even though we are operating in a world which does not like the sound of the truth." -Sinéad O'Connor

She expected to be controversial and stir up a hornet's nest, but be insulated from the fall out. There are almost two billion Catholics in the world, she shouldve done some math.

Größte moderne Künstlerin seit 1985. Sie hat begriffen, was Musik und Gesang ist. Sie hat begriffen, was Mut und Wahrheit ist. Nur ihr eigenes Leben hat sie nicht begriffen. Weil der Schmerz zu groß war. Sie hätte den Nobelpreis verdient für ihre Persönlichkeit. Und 1000 Umarmungen für ihren Schmerz.

Thats an unhappy,angry racist right there!

She was very unbalanced and neurotic, and was not a good mother, she never recovered from her son’s suicide.

Brutal and real. She was ahead of her time and was right. We should all miss her.

I remember this. I stand 1 MILLION % behind Sinead then now and always. She had the bravity to do what not just anyone could do. Sinead is a hero in my book. She called foe justice and spoke out against evil. We should PRAY to be as strong as this woman ❤️❤️

As some other famous musician once said, she is one of the rare punk to have reached the mainstream. Doja Cat currently thinks she is punk but that's really not it.

what was the point of he singing? to clap back at the audience booing at her`?

Hindsight is a curious thing.. Unlike most of my "Christian" "friends" who were also watching live.. I instantly asked a question I would definitely discover the answers too later... When someone who is arguably still up and coming in the music industry / world.. When they tear up a photo of what "chistians" believe is baby Jesus on earth.. Well, you might want to pay attention, even if you didn't agree then or now.. There are reasons behind someone pissing into the wind of their obviously successful career.. Sinead didn't care about any of it... She blessed us with her music and messages.. I don't feel sorry for anyone, actually.. But, I will continue to shake my head in sarcasm and wonder (sometimes) when people cannot see what is actually going on, and want to cast stones on someone who does, and gives a fawk about abused people..

Terrible.

I love the fact that Kristofferson fully supported and comforted her. RIP brave soul.

Shame on everyone who was there booing her.

She was before her time. If your religion make you hate and do inhuman things seek another religion

The audience were just pawns in the game.

Where can I find this concert in HD?

What an irrelevant joke she was. 😂

She was right!

She's so beautiful. She's otherworldly. She makes me weep. She begs--Bob Marley begs--a precarious submission, a yielding that might be unrequited. No one is guilty of the acts of their ancestors, no one is a victim of what their ancestors suffered. An entertainer treads a delicate line. On one side, their duty as an activist, a compassionate human being that bemoans the woe of the world and fights for its cessation. On the other, their duty is to bring abandon, happiness, relief and escape from the misery of the individual's being--the audience's collective torment. She leapt, however recklessly, into the abyss on the side of activism. When you see this lithe, beautiful nymph act an authoritarian and preach to you, the paying patron, to call upon you, the humble viewer, to rise up against an unknown, unforeseen evil, to rally against those believed graceful, sanctified, and holy, she requests more than your ticket's worth. Your battle is yours, and yours alone. Your cross you must bear. Though I feel your pain, and though I might strive to give you respite from your burdens, I will always succumb to the burdens of my own existence, so much so, that your burdens become like trifles as mine become Heraclean and insurmountable.

Yeah, people were already deeply sick of Feminism even back then 😅
