(Gray News) - Rock icon Sinead O’Connor, known best for her hit, “Nothing Compares 2 U” has died at age 56.

The Irish singer’s family announced the singer’s death on an Irish entertainment site, saying “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Sinéad. Her family and friends are devastated and have requested privacy at this very difficult time.”

Her death was also reported by media in the United Kingdom and Ireland.

The singer courted controversy with her outspoken nature on political and social issues, which crystallized in her ripping up a picture of the pope on Saturday Night Live.

With “Nothing Compares 2 U,” she found worldwide fame in 1990. She released 10 albums over her career.

But her star turn didn’t last, and in recent years, she’s faced troubles.

O’Connor has been open about her mental health struggles.

Would

Shit I read the title wrong. RIP

Wow.

Damn. RIP.

She lastest 10 years longer than expected. She had many Demons.

R.I.P. to a very unique individual

I don't browse the DC forum very often. Just did and saw this was posted there first. Sorry about the Q.

That was just so she could get called a commie asshole that deserved to die, probably shouldn't apologize.

Rip
sec

Nothing Compare 2 her

Amazing voice, RIP troubled lady.

dgaf

You posted in the thread so I guess you do.

I was more upset when Brian O'Connor died

SNL skit where Sinatra calls her a cueball

Sinead had an incredible voice and a unique sound that I admired and respected. Never got caught up in her politics at the time, thank god. Too bad her life circumstances/choices caught up to her and ended her life too early.

RIP.

Loved her songs Fast Car and Luka

RIP

How could you forget Zombie

She lived her life a quarter mile at a time

**** I keep mistakenly attributing that song to Vedder

Frank - “Sine-aid O’Conner!”

Dolores O'Riordan's death hit me harder than this but never the less RIP Sinead just wasn't much of a fan. Her son committed suicide a year ago maybe this played a part. She never gave Prince any credit for the song he wrote that Sinaead made her own "Nothing Compares 2 You". Much like Whitney Houstons with Dolly's I will Always Love You. Prince couldn't stand her. I cant think of a Dolores written song that was good, but RIP 56 is too young.

Here is dolores doing a Bob Dylan song War.

All the predictable responses from the CP house on Un American activities committee.
