I was there when this was recorded. Although still young and new to various music styles, this song and her performance, I knew this was something special. Glad I was a part of it. Thanks Sinéad
@@alzer6467 this was a live singing performance from her. That was the only way she could express herself and put every bit of emotion in the song. Like mentioned before, I was quite amazed by her.
@@hoderharris the crowd was sillenced. Normally there,s rumor etc from people talking or singing along but with this performance everybody was stunned. This is just one the moments in life that you appreciate complete silence and enjoy what you’re witnessing.
Such a shame it was mimed to the studio version. She absolutely nails this song live. If you want to see how powerful she was, search for "Sinéad O'Connor - Troy (Live At The Dominion Theatre, 1988)". An absolute beast, gives chills every time!
Wow. Just wow. The first 3 seconds in and I'm mesmerized. I know that I'm watching something ethereal . . . she was too sensitive, too brilliant, and to courageous for our world.
Masterpiece of Sinéad...loved this song, she was only 20 then, unique voice, mysterious look her bald head and those beautiful big eyes, I was 16 but loved her then and will miss her 😢 R.I.P Sinéad an amazing singer/songwriter she always will be ❤️🥀🖤
Absolument stratosphérique !! Une bombe vocale d'une incroyable intensité !! Et une présence magnétique qui vous scotche et vous fait vibrer l'esprit, le cœur et le corps tout entier C'est la toute jeune et déjà si grande Sinéad.!! Incroyable et merveilleuse... Love for the eternity ❤🌹💔💞
Listen to her autobiography on Audible and you'll love ❤️ her even more, she is speaking throughout the book- fascinating life and I admire her bravery. I was heart broken when I heard she passed, now she's with her family- God rest her soul❤ I wish I would have known her , she was fantastic!
É isso mesmo, também espero e desejo que Sinéad O'Connor esteja irradiando sua sabedoria sobre nós na sua atual existência em vida onde quer que esteja, ela é necessária e encantadora !🌹🌟👏💯
One of the best versions of Troy that I've heard. It's far from just a "song" she is singing, she is baring soul her life story to that point in my uneducated opinion. Couple that with her haunting, ferocious, raw but beautiful voice. Thank you and RIP.
Sinéad always singing for real in her presentations without resorting to the vile playback, characteristic of those who know that their musical resources are not enough. Rest in peace dear from your battles and sadness, thanks a lot for your musical legacy.
Weirdly, this vocal track is absolutely identical to the studio version, but it really does look like she's singing live. Either she was capable of absolutely perfect reproduction, or she was the best mimer I have ever seen.
How I envy you! You happened to see this great woman with a phenomenally beautiful soul. In my terrible country, she was only once and I did not know about it in advance, I could not come to the capital. Rest in peace, dear Sinead. Nothing compares to you.
I hope your sorrow and worries are now over for you, Sinéad and you can shine where you are. You'll certainly shine on with the living forever and ever. Rest in peace, thank you for what you've meant to us.
The first time I ever saw her was this preformance on countdown. Goosebumps. Still. Love this song. I even went to her concert a few years later. If I see it now she looks so young... Such a Shame...
Llevo años siguiendo a Sinead, nunca antes ví esta presentación, y pese a todo el vasto material de ella que he podido conocer, he quedado muy impresionada, su entereza pese a la edad que tenía, tan tan sólida, tan clara en su entrega, aquí se puede ver todo lo que ella es, una mujer diferente, que vino a cantar de forma diferente (influyó en tantas cantantes noventeras!) rompió esquemas de manera sublime y poderosa... si tengo que mostrar a alguien un vídeo de Sinead O"Connor para que sepa bien quién es ella... elijo este sin duda (de hecho ayer lo hice).
Mijn lieve moeder verloor ik zelf door haar eigen keuze. Dit nummer blijft voor altijd een herinnering aan het overlijden van mijn lieve moeder. 20 juli ik was pas 18 destijds in 1985. Ze was ook veels te lief voor deze wereld ❤❤❤❤❤.dit nummer kwam later uit. Maar Nothing compare was mijn grootste steun destijds. Rust zacht lieve mooie Sinaed 😢😢😢
...Descansa en paz, guerrera indomita que busco siempre la brillantez de la berdad, mis oraciones para que Dios y xuride Maria os acojan en baleden. AMEN EGI IS ALUN !
• ‘…And I will return….’ • • True artist. Real talent. Sincere energy. Pure intentions. Phenomenal singer / songwriter / producer. Unique voice, in many ways…..Rest in peace 👑🤍💔 • • ‘And you’ll see me return, being what I am….’ • • These lyrics were always powerful, wrapped up in a timeless song that equals over 6 minutes of straight goosebumps, yet they sure hit different now • • ‘Cause your spirit, and what you stood for, will live on: in your art, in your music, in your words, and especially in how you were speaking up, as the distortion of facts will ultimately be restored to clarity of truth. Always. • • THE PHOENIX FROM THE FLAME • 🔥🔥🔥❤️ • • Thoughts, prayers and my sincere condolences go out to your family & friends • #RIPSineadOConnor #Troy #tbt #SineadOConnor

Incrível!!!! Minha Rainha da Irlanda Sinéad O'Connor uma voz suave e angelical. Não será esquecida através do lindo legado que nos deixou para ser ouvido e apreciado com muito amor. Te amarei e ouvirei sempre. Agora você está bem e em paz com seu menino que Deus abençoe e ilumine vocês. Adeus...🙏🕊👩👦🎶
this is straight from the record, Sinead doesn’t need to do voiceover, I assume technical reasons they had to do this, there are many other videos in which she actually sings with a band, usually playing her acoustic guitar, the similar version live version of Troy is rendered again much later in her life when she played with a symphonic orchestra and she had short hair
This song 🎧 keeps rising and rising but never really goes anywhere with no pay off . Some great sonic ideas and beats in there all the same. Like a volcano forming with no relieving explosion 💥
I disagree. It builds up (and for 4min with little other than her voice driving the buildup), then at 4:20 the beats and lusher instrumentation kicks in song enters danceable land. And even then her voice continues to be at the absolute forefront. I like this song a lot, and had it been 2min shorter (less build up to the danceable finale) i think it would have worked great at a postpunk/darkwave type of party.
