#Sinead O'Connor was a hero. So sensitive, so fierce, so tender, a warrior wounded by abuse. She fought for anti-racism, women, kids - got bludgeoned for it, kept getting back up to do it again.
"Brash & outspoken...a direct challenge to popular culture's long-prevailing notions of femininity & sexuality – O'Connor changed the image of women in music in the early 1990s."
"Everyone wants a pop star, see? But I am a protest singer. I just had stuff to get off my chest" #RIP
