She took a lot of crap for being right. She deserved to be praised for her honesty and foresight once the truth came out.

[StephanieSoressi]

She was the first with the courage to REALLY, publicly, confront the child sex abuse allowed & covered up by the Catholic Church -- pulling no punches. She rose above so much hostility & abuse, and adorned my life with beauty, and a way to express my penned-up emotions. She gave SO much, and got back so little.

[wonderwoman]

I’ve never seen piers so nice to guest as he was towards Sinead at the end. That was nice that she knew she had people’s love and support

[aemalahmad]

She was one of the most brutally honest celebrity I have seen.
May she rest in peace.

[mentalcompassno]

My brother's death destroyed my mother. I will never forget her screams when we told her, an agony so deep, there are no words. She gave up on life.

[willdixon]

We've lost someone really special - somebody so beautifully feminine but with the courage of a lion and the soul of a poet and the spirit of a warrior. Be in paradise forever Sinead. We will miss you - but remember you always.

Sinead, you're a beautiful soul. It turns out you were the hero all along. Thank you for your music, and for raising awareness about uncomfortable truths. Rest in peace, rebel. ❤😢

[irenegroves]

She had a beautiful voice. Rest in peace you beautiful soul 💔

[josephmckernan]

This woman took on the Catholic Church about the sexual abuse by the clergy.And by fck she was crucified by the media movie stars and politicians she would not change her story for no one then 10 years later she was proving right about her allegations about abuse so for all these bastards who ruined her life hang your heads in shame god bless her soul

[tracyzenero]

I truly believe she was broken by her sons death and couldn’t go on . I truly hope she’s found the peace she was denied in this life .

[zeenaeem]

She seemed at peace here. So normal and relatable. RIP

[Pantherking]

For anyone so jaded they can't remember, THIS is what being genuine is and looks like. THIS is what unapologetically yourself looks and sounds like. THIS is what real feels and is. Rest In Peace.

[LlyleHunter]

She could sometimes be exasperating and frustrated but she always had a purpose and was correct for doing so despite people’s disagreeing with her methods. Her intellect was absolutely expansive and she had the ability to express it in the most impressive ways quite effectively
May she Rest In Peace

[thebestatit]

She was such a soft hearted person and you can see that she suffered from pain through her eyes. She was such a beautiful woman that suffered from depression and other mental illnesses and of course being labeled crazy isn’t a joke.

[manfredpinedosoto]

A voice so haunting, yet angelic and pure,
She sang of love, of pain, of life's allure.
Her melodies like whispers in the breeze,
Embracing souls, setting spirits at ease.

Her music resonated with the depths of our emotions, guiding us through both joy and sorrow. As we mourn the loss of a remarkable artist, may her legacy live on, and may her songs continue to be a source of comfort and strength. Rest in peace, dear Sinéad.

[joelewishenry]

Such a heartbreaking 💔 loss. She was a brilliant and courageous woman. One of the most distinctive voices in history. Thanks for making my teenage years wonderful. RIP

[Babaziba]

Not seeing her smile that often made it even more beautiful when it came out. How she will be missed.

[rogefedwon]

What a huge loss. RIP Sinead, you are an incredible woman.

[dpmuir]

Such a beautiful and honourable woman with the blessing of angels in her voice. May she now be at one with her son and also be at eternal peace.

[hitesh_blues]

She looks so tired 😢 she had her share of intense pain but never did she miss an opportunity to raise her voice and sing her heart out ❤
