Sinead has the best version, in my opinion. She wasn’t the original artist but she sang it like it was her own story. So much emotion.

This song was written by Prince (RIP). This version by Sinéad O´Connor was a smash hit in 1990. Chris Cornell (RIP), covered this only upon princes' passing in 2016. Sinéad is still with us in 2022 (55 years old).

The reason I love you Mo is because you don't have to keep stopping and talking. We 'see' your reactions and they say more than words. Such a beautiful song by a beautiful artist reacted to by a beautiful lady. Thank you. I love you.

Sinead had recently lost her mother. She was thinking of her while singing this song. All the pain, sadness, and emotion were real.

Every time I hear this song I cry. R.I.P

She really brought this song to life and made it her own. Completely and utterly invested emotionally. She was thrust into the spotlight so immediately and suddenly because of the way this song blew up but sadly she just wasn't ready for the attention that came with it.

Sinead is gone now passed away today - but her Heart & Soul will live forever through her music - RIP Sinead O'Connor..!

She is one of Ireland's proudest exports. a brilliant song, beautifully sung.

This is the perfect example of the cover being far better than the original. Masterpiece by Sinead O'Connor.

You are a sensitive girl like Sinead. We don't have to be ashamed of tears at all 🌻💔

We all cried too the first time we saw the video way back then in 1990. The Lion And The Cobra, her first album that came out in 1987, is very important to me. I was 20 years old when it came out.

I am glad you played this song and you gave the reaction I Knew I would see. Prince let Sinead record the song and when he heard her version, he gave her the song because he said no one could do it better includiing him.

Yes, that Prince 🙂

At 59 , this song still chokes me up. Love your face Baby girl... love your smile.

We have had the luck to hear an Angel. God takes back what he mistakenly left among us, as we do or never will deserve it. This voice will never be heard again. RIP Sinead.

The version of Sinead O'Connor is so god. Nevertheless i always like very much more her song: "The Emperor's new clothes". I think you will enjoy it too. Thanks for you genuine reaction as always. Best regards from Chile 🇨🇱😘

Yes those were real tears.

Troy by sinead O'Connor is a must listen, and really worth of an reaction 👌🏼❤️

This song always brings a tear to my eye. I can see it touched you as well. Please never stop smiling. You have such a beautiful smile it touches my soul to see you smile. 💖

She said the reason she started crying was the line ' all the flowers in the back yard ' reminded her of her own mother who had recently died

That’s why I listen to rock music. Failed in love so found out it’s easier to live alone. Have a lot of friends and a girlfriend but it is simpler to live alone. Less stress.

Sinead voice like an angel,rip o connor god alloh bless U_❤😊

Ouch that hurt, it was my break up song at the time. I had forgotten how powerful it is until you played it.

That's happened when a Song find the perfect Artist to sing it.

RIP Sinéad 😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤

young lady you started the tears and created a chain reaction boohoo. 😭 it was a very sweet reaction. 🌹

Beautiful song...waa a humungous hit...Sinead is amazing...Try Last Day of Our Aquaintance live, Mandinka live, Troy Live at Pinkpop, You Made Me The Thief of Your Heart

This song gets me every time I hear it! Sinead O'Conner did a masterful performance that makes you feel every word. Beautiful reaction Baby Girl!❤

This song makes me cry every time. Her voice is haunting

Such a great song. I remember this when it was released. Sinead O'Connor did such a great job with this song. Seeing your emotions coming out was something very endearing. Much love to you.

She is an angel :)

Prince wrote it, Sinead owns it. Wonderful reaction, we can see in to your lovely soul

Always a very sad and haunting song. Brings tears to my old eyes every time.

These artists are more appreciated in the end than they were in the beginning. And that's a good thing.

Prince wrote the best song of the 80s (Purple Rain) and the best song of the 90s (Nothing Compares 2 U).

Sinéad was the original singer of this song. Prince wrote it, but he never sang nor record it until after the song was released by Sinéad, many years after. Yes, same Prince of purple rain. Chris's is a late version. This was her song regardless. She made it her own. It wasn't a cover by Sinéad. It was a cover by everyone else.

a really beautiful song and she touches everyone's heart with her rendition, but she sings for everyone's song at some time in our life's. thanks, Morenikeji for doing it justice

Thank you Prince for writing this , cause NOTHING compares to this cover . NOTHING ! Peace and Love

ваша реакция такая искренняя, настоящая, на искренее исполнение песни Шинейд. Спасибо ❤

Prince wrote this beautiful song and Sinead sang it to prefection!

This is such a beautiful, emotional song covered masterfully

I’m crying with you baby girl ♥️😭

This was absolutely beautiful as was your lovely, tender reaction. You have a beautiful soul Mo. Wonderful job! 😊

Dear Morenikji - you should not always cry at such beautiful, sad songs --- then I MUST always cry with you. Be happy that someone has thought up these lyrics and the music, be happy that there is someone who can perform this so wonderfully. Sinead also cries in the video, you can see the tears rolling - well, then we are already three who cry!

Isn't it amazing the effect music can have on your soul.

Such an emotional song - and such an emotional reaction too, my favourite baby girl! 💖😢💖 Yes, Sinead "owns" this song - an amazing cover version. She said that she got so emotional in the video, thinking about her dead mother. It is such a raw and vulnerable performance... Thank you for trying to make it through and posting it! Take care. Lots of love 😘😘😘

one of the best songs ever

Such a beautiful and heartfelt song.

Amazing song.. Great to see others can see the pain.. please keep up the reactions..

After watching your reaction from a few other videos like Telephone line and Everything I own I stumbled onto this one and in that you have given me hope for humanity. I watched your tears and knew you felt the pain and love and know you'r a good person with a big heart. Thank you for this video you have made my day a little brighter.

My Soul is with you!!!

You showed a lot of strength with this one, Mo. Thank You. Sinead owns this song like Johnny Cash now owns Hurt.❤Peace/JT

Wow! The song, combined with your reaction had me in full tears. I think you said you'd heard the song before, but your reaction was so raw and honest! Thank you for posting this! May Sinead O'Connor rest in peace! 🕊️💙

I´m crying, but you like sun in me, Thank You Mori! Your likeful beeing, and just like a livng soul, reaction to simplicity. JP

היא מדהימה ריגשה אותי כל כך.עד דמעות❤❤❤❤שיר מאוד מרגש...אהבתי את התגובה שלך👍👍👍👍🫶🫶🫶🫶

It's been over 45 years and 2 marriages since I had my heart shattered like this, but it still brings up emotions. Love your reaction.

She was a beautiful person. Glad I got to see your review. It made me appreciate Sinead more.

I totally enjoy your reactions! Your smile and the emotions you show are heartwarming. I get soo moved by music that it's good to see someone else connecting like I do! Thank you Morenikeji! I melt the minute I see you! I am crushing on you and loving your honest emotions!

Prince wrote it but he wrote it for a band on his own label in the 80s called The Family. It was never a hit until Sinead's version, Prince heard it and called her and basically gave her the song

A song that's been awhile but a beautifully touching song . Her version is my choice. I believed that you can appreciate my dear. This is the original. Prince, yes that Prince wrote it.

Embrace the pain then let it go. 💔❤️🙂

Hey, Baby girl! You need a song that will pick you up. The Genesis song Firth of Fifth always does it for me. The piano playing alone is enough.

A true classic and I love your reaction to it.

Brilliant, a legend

Thus song is hard as hell

I love her so much.

Never hide a tear…

Such a sad yet beautiful song, nice reaction Mo

Sinéad a fait de cette chanson un bijou (allez voir la version de Prince), à l' époque ce titre était passé inaperçu.Sinéad aussi belle au dedans qu au dehors,son œuvre est prodigieuse, elle nous a laissé 10 albums a écouter sans modération 💚♥️

Hi, Mo. It's been many years since I've listened to this song, but my reaction to it today is still the same as it was back then ..😢 Your reaction was no surprise to me. You are just that sort of person who feels the emotion of a song. Thanks for sharing 👍🏽 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

Several artists write songs for other artists. Sinead made this her own and made it brilliantly. It's her song, in my book.

Sinnead is incredible in this video, She really should have had more hits like this, Very controversial at times but a wonderful talent ❤

That’s crazy, I was just about to suggest this to you! Can’t wait to see your reaction

RIP Sinéad O'Connor, this is a song of Price

Your facial expressions were amazing, thank you, love from Ireland

This music are so ...emotional.

Beautiful song..Morenikeji reactions priceless.

I guess I'm one of the fortunate ones just for having a special someone. She can still hurt me in ways unknown... And we're getting married. Wish us good luck... :)

Sinead o^conner RIP

Hello Mo, a beautiful golden oldie again. May I suggest you listen to Kitaro’s “lady of dreams”? That song gives a good impression of my younger years.

RIP Sinead O'Connor

Amazing song and moving reaction.

I cried right along with you. 💝

Nothing compares to you morenikeji 😃😃😃

Hey there Lady. Wishing all is well with you in Nigeria. This is a really good one, regardless if Prince (the writer), Chris Cornell, or Sinéad is singing it. But Sinéad's version is the most haunting of the three. I didn't want to see the tears, but I understand as this one gets me too. I know it is tough to leave hurt behind, but don't ever think you don't deserve the greatest love of all.

🇨🇦 Always one of my favourites ! And I see that really hit you in the Feels !

Hey baby girl, Great choice, the ultimate break-up song. Yes it’s a Prince song. He was totally at the top of his game around then but this version is vastly superior to his. It goes hand in hand with that video though. As you remarked she was stunningly beautiful, the most amazing face and she was so expressive in that song. When she cried it really made the video. She cried because of the line about her mother. The video director later said he shouldn’t have cut away from her at all. Just stayed on her face. He was right. I remember when that song came out. It was in the early days of music videos and that was just one of the best. Beautiful song, beautiful singer and a universal feeling. We’ve all had loved we’ve lost and nothing compares to them.

Hahahahaha, your reaction was priceless😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Your reaction was genuine and fantastic!! Thank you.

No matter if it's Sinead, Prince, or Chris Cornell...always gets me.

Don't know if I've ever seen you use so many facial expressions in a song reaction, and also tearing up. Emotional reaction to an emotional song.

An absolutely beautiful genuine reaction. Only us who have been there know. Subscribed

You are NOT ALONE, Morenikeij Taiwo, a very lot of people are with you!!!!!!!!!!!!

Morenikeji, I can tell you've had your heart broken at one time or another.

Morenikeji: nothing compares to you 💔😩

Hauntingly heart breaking. Thanks!

Who's broke our baby girls.heart 😭 See you reliving it ❤🇦🇺👍

Just watching your reactions shows you have an amazing loving heart. Thank you for allowing us into your world as you show such emotions over music. I truly believe music is a universal language. Prince besides being an incredible artists himself not only had his music covered but wrote songs for others like "sugar walls" for Sheena Easton a bit naughty but I loved Sheena Eastons voice....

R. I. P. SINEAD 🕯️

Hi Mo, I’ve read the first dozen or so comments on this wonderful rendition by Sinéad O’Connor. None of them however mention Prince’s own live version where he sings a duet with Rosie Gaines. It is absolutely stupendous. And I would like to suggest with respect that you check it out and review it. For you will surely be blown away by both the musicality and the emotion. Prince(RIP). was a true genius and an hell of an guitarist as you will hear in the outro.
