Our mom used to blast Lion and The Cobra in our minivan on the way to school. We were 7 but screamed along to every word. Sinead fanned the flames of creativity in us from very young. Sad to see the news she’s gone. Sending love to wherever we go when we die.

This is such a tragedy. What a loss. She was haunted all her life. What a talent. I remember my first Grammy show meeting this small shy Irish girl. #Sinead #RIPSinead Sinead O’Connor Dead at 56 – Rolling Stone https://t.co/DPTd1tNmZT
