Tribal People React to Sinéad O'Connor Nothing Compares 2 U

Bless you lads for praying for her and the respect you showed Sinead, she was adored by the Irish people, but vilified and ridiculed by the press. She could never be at peace with this. Im not gonna lie, I struggled to get through this song.

She's my Family member and I have to say thank you, I would never thought you would do a tutorial on her. I've been watching you guys for many many years . I have to say thank you. Keep up the great work

She was a woman with a huge heart and a generous soul. She struggled horribly with depression and mental illness. She was very intelligent and aware of the plight of people all over the world. I wish she could have found more peace in this world.

I am a Christian and I so very much appreciated your gentle care and stopping to pray for her. God be with you.

I want you to know that watching your videos is more than just watching the reactions of the Tribal People. It is transcendent to me, meaning that your videos connect all of us on a larger scale. It is bringing commonalities instead of fear. With the politics here in the U.S. pushing fear and hate, it is strange that I get comfort from people I should supposedly fear. I thank you very much.

I'm just stoked to see Abdul still with us after the health scare.

All of these men seem to be such gentle souls. Their understanding of not only the lyrics but the expression is amazing to see. Glad to see Abdul still here with us. Love you all very much ❤

Thank you for the respect you showed to Sinead O'Connor. She's worthy of love and respect. A brave woman. A warrior who was ahead of her time. Thank you for praying for her. I'm a better person for having watched this.

Fascinating that he says 'it's music tells of a child who isn't valued' considering her childhood and the abuse she suffered at the hands of her mother. So incredible that he could pick up on it so easily after just a few moments!

A child who isn’t valued, her face tells such things! He doesn’t just look like a wise old man . The good side of you tube. Sinead brought me here and I’m glad she did. I’m Irish and sinead is and will always be one of Ireland’s Crown Jewels

- Thank you for sharing this. It's true that though this song was written by Prince, Sinéad did connect with it. Particularly with her mother, which is why she begins to cry. She had a difficult upbringing but she really did have love for her mom. Her mother was killed in a car crash when Sinéad was 18 years old so the tears she cried were real and in remembering her mother. - She did cut her hair short because she did not want to be seen as just a woman but seen as an artist. Most men, especially in that industry, view women as sexual objects. She did not want that. She had suffered that abuse by men when she was a young girl. She did not want to be seen as such and wanted to be taken seriously. Doesn't really happen that way unfortunately but it's what she stood by. Eventually she would wear the hijab which resolved the issue with her hair. - I like that you asked about the background, with the statues. The statues are actually telling a story as well. The way they edited this was awesome in the way each statue was facing her as she was walking or standing. Each one was shown to either look at her or even wave to her. They were a part of her journey, like old friends. - The issue with the picture of the pope, she did this as a protest to the abuse children were suffering within the catholic church. Back then people did not want to speak on it but she was abused as a child as well and the catholic church and the pope were hiding it from everyone and, in fact, they still are. Sinéad took a stand for children who were abused but she was attacked in the media instead. And as it turns out, she was right all along. RIP Sinéad O'Connor. You took a sweet song and turned it into a beautiful story. 💞

They honored her with their prayers. What a kindness.

She wore her hair so short so that people would not focus on her beauty but on her music. Great video gentlemen.😊

Thankyou for praying for her. I always regarded Sinead as a big sister since I first heard this song when I was a kid and over the years I always saw her standing up for and trying to help others. She dealt with a lot of pain in her life but I think she found peace before she passed away.

Abdul is so compassionate and insightful and never ceases to amaze me. He watches every video so intensely and takes it all in. All these men feel the music they hear their hearts without understanding the language but Abdul has a wisdom that comes from life experiences and age. I pray he will get better every day and be able to do some of the things he misses and be free of his pain! I would love to see him react to Yusuf Islam (formerly Cat Stevens) Father and Son. I'd love to hear his thoughts on that beautiful song.

I don't know why my eyes are full of tears....when she started her career I was living in India and not interested in western music... I am knowing her through your eyes... understanding and compassion of her Thank you so much 🙏💖

My wife died for a few days ago... I cried my heart out

“All the flowers that you planted , momma, in the backyard , all died…”. She said she was singing to her mother who died and who was extremely abusive to her as a child, but whom she deeply loved still.

She was an Old, or Mature soul living in a world ruled by Infant , Baby , and Youth soul ages. She was a pioneer of self care ,inner child health. Rip Sweet, lady. You are a hero.

Bless you for doing this! This is the first time I've been able to listen to this song since she died. I thought it would be too hard, but sharing it with you guys experiencing it for the first time has made it special and less painful. <3
