Irish singer Sinéad O’Connor has died at age 56. 

“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,” O’Connor’s family said in a statement to The Irish Times and the BBC. A cause of death was not given.

O’Connor, who courted controversy throughout her long career, rose to fame with her 1990 rendition of the Prince song “Nothing Compares 2 U,” which hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 that year. 

Her 17-year-old son, Shane O’Connor, died of an apparent suicide last year. She announced his passing in January 2022.

Probably one of the more misunderstood artists. She took a lot of heat in this country following her Saturday Night Live appearance when she tore up a picture of the Pope in protest over the Catholic Church sexual abuse cover ups. Her stance on this was a good ten years before it became a news-worthy topic in this country.

Great talent and very troubled soul.  Recently posted: 

Sinead O'Connor posted about her son Shane's death in the days leading up to her own.

O'Connor recently took to Twitter, where she reflected on her 17-year-old son's suicide, writing that she's been "lost" since his untimely death. Shane died in January 2022 after going missing in Ireland.

"Been living as undead night creature since.. He was the love of my life, the lamp of my soul," O'Connor wrote of Shane. "We were one soul in two halves. He was the only person who ever loved me unconditionally. I am lost in the bardo without him."

Can't imagine having to deal with the death and suicide of a child.

    • Ya'll.....look at Stafford without his feet set. This is why people in here talk about Bryce not having elite abilities mattering when plays break down. He cannot make these kind of throws with his base not being set. 
    • Pretty much going to play each other the same way.  Stop the run let the bad QB try to win the game. It will come down to who makes the least amount of mistakes. 
    • From the Charlotte Observer   1. quarterback Bryce Young has yet to earn a road win this season, and the third-year former overall No. 1 pick is 1-15 on the road as a starter for his career — which is tied for the worst record over 16 games in NFL history. 2. The Jets, meanwhile, haven’t won a game yet. But even still it’s tough to pinpoint their identity. 3. They’ve lost four of their six games by a single score — three games by two points, specifically.  4. Quarterback Justin Fields has flashed his propensity for playmaking at times this year — with the exception of his Week 6 performance where he only threw for 45 yards passing — and Breece Hall is a undeniably good lead running back having a solid year statistically.   5. The Jets’ team rankings aren’t too ugly either.     Their defense, specifically. That unit is ninth in third-down conversion rate (36.4%) and 10th in opponent passing yards per game (200.5).   Their Achilles heel to date, it appears, is their turnover margin (-1.2, 31st in the NFL).
