Sinead O' Connor - 8 Good Reasons [Official Music Video] 

I want to get on a bus and Sinead O’Connor is sitting in the back dressed like a priest and singing. God I love her

Devastated by this morning’s news of Sinead’s passing and this song hits even harder now. She seemed like such a deep, intelligent, warm human being who was too sensitive for this world. Or maybe the world was just too hardened to appreciate her pure honesty and artistry. I hope she is at peace wherever she is now, and is reunited with her boy ❤

In case anyone is wondering, she said in an interview the 8 good reasons to stick around were the eyes of her 4 children. With the loss of her son, the 8 were reduced to 6 and it was just too much to bear. 💔

Let us celebrate this distinctive artist..her personal beliefs were strong..& she stood up to the establishment that was wrong.. yet blessed with beauty & an amazing voice..much missed..😞👏👍🏻❤️

This is one of her most underrated songs, along with take me to church, these should have been much bigger instead of being ignored by the industry.

I’ve been loving Sinéad since the “The Lion and the Cobra”. So gutted she’s left us. I pray she’s found the love and peace she was looking for. 🙏🏻💜

It's been 5 months since you left us. A few days ago the world got the news that it was not your choice to leave us. I am so proud of you! You beat suicidal ideation. Even though people would have understood, you were in so much pain. You endured so much tragedy and so many mixed blessings. Rest well Angel Sinead.

This song feels particularly poignant now 💔 “You know I'm not from this place I'm from a different time, different space And it's real uncomfortable To be stuck somewhere you just don't belong” Sinead will not be forgotten and neither will her music. I hope she can find peace now 💔

Her songs all had meaning not like the shite you hear today. Her lyrics always told a story and She sang from her heart. RIP Your battle is over you can go and be with your son ❤️

What a fantastic video and song. Sinead was a phenomenal musician, songwriter, and human. Rest in peace, Sinead. Your smile always makes me smile.

I had a breakdown at the beginning of this year and attempted suicide my good friend introduced me to this song and I can't stop playing it. It's inspiring to me. Hits heart strings every time. As well as take me to church. Thank you Sinead for saving me xxx

Just keep finding more and more reminders of why we have lost a true poet

RIP beautiful Sinead 💔. I am totally devastated by your passing. You were from a different time, different space. This world didn’t deserve you. Fly high like a bird now 😢 ❤

You're not just a singer. You're a spiritual leader. Love you so much ❤ Thank you!

This song become so much more poignant after Sinead took her life. As she so rightly says in this song - "You know Im not from this place. From a different time different space". She was an old soul. A true Lightworker. Rest Truly in Peace,beautiful soul 😭

how many lives have been saved with this song? I know she has kept me alive...the gift of an artist...

Rest In Peace. A brave and uncompromising artist. You will be missed.

If only one of her 8 good reasons didn't pass away (her son) she'd still be here. But at least now they're together again. Thank you for everything Magda 💜

R.I.P., Sinead O'Connor, thank you for all the great sounds, through the years.

May you find the peace in the next world that you couldn't find here. God Bless you Sister Sinead. Rest in Glorious Peace. Thank you for sharing your talents with us.

This song has always made be cry. Not just for Sinead but others suffering from thoughts of suicide.

Wow. I just heard this song for the first time a week ago and now she is gone. My favorite person always. I will cherish her songs. Thank you Sinead ❤️

It's been several months she's gone, and I'm still so sad. There's so much pain through all her carrier, bullies and morons used to hate her for stuff they didn't even understand, stuff she said when she was a young angry woman. Some people aren't even able to let it go and see the beauty of such artists as Sinead O' Connor. I miss you, Sinead.

Sinead's so Beautiful! Her Existence here was a Rebellion!!! (Love you!!!)

I love this song. She gets on the bus and first she's depressed and then she looks around at the people and looks at the beautiful world and she starts thinking about what life is and what she values out of life. She starts counting the things she is sticking around for and then she comes up with nine. She knows she is different than most people but she doesn't care because she loves people and she knows she has a lot to offer. I love you Sinead! You are truly a beautiful singer and you are beautiful on the inside too!

Voice for a century now !!!! Beloved and will be never be forgotten!! I love you, Sinead!!!!! Sleep sweetly ! My beauty!

So strong ... R.I.P Sinead 🙏🏿🙏🏽🙏🏼

I miss you more than you’ll ever know!

Oh Sinead...no. I wanted those eight good reasons to be enough. I wish they'd been enough. My heart is absolutely shattered. I understand that it didn't help and couldn't heal your pain, but even so, I hope you knew how many of us loved you, were in awe of you, were blown away by your talent, your bravery, your fierce individuality and commitment to being only your most authentic self at all times. I treasured the example you set of calling out all the ways the world is broken, of admitting your pain and vulnerability, of pouring your inner life into your art. There will never be another you. I hope you find rest, comfort and peace. 😢

Still can't believe she's gone from us, so much to offer as a unique voice. Please reach out to people around you to understand the space they're in, I feel the World failed her when she needed lifting. ❤ Sinead, fly high and soar with the wind, we will remember you.

I'm so glad I finally met her 30 years later. an angel is not often seen on earth. I enjoy listening to her latest songs.

I cried so many times when listening to this song after it first came out but none so much as I cry tonight..RIP Angel 💔

So sad,I hope you're at peace! Thanks for standing up to the authority's and highlighting the abuse that was going on! Fly high Angel X

Rest in peace, Irish warrior.... I'm so heartbroken..... Thank you for your music and your heart, your convictions and standing up for what you believed in.... you were a beautiful soul.... a damaged soul but beautiful... talented beyond anything and we all love you forever and can't wait to be with you in the heavens with Abba. Thank you, SInead, for everything. You are in Abba YHWH's hands now and with your son

Beautiful BEAUTIFUL Soul, just CRUSHING what she still YET had to sing 😞 Xxo

Such a beautiful strong courageous woman.

Camminiamo con Sinead nel cuore

Oh Sinead. I'll miss you so much. You helped me many times.

That's how many people were on the bus and it restored her hope in humanity. She realized that every person on that bus needed her and she could help them in some way and for that moment, she felt happy.

Listening to this to such sad news rest in peace Sinead thank you for bringing light & relief to other people with your talent you shall live on forever in your music

Would love to see Blue October cover this song and keep it living on just like her music and spirit need to.

Thank you Sinead O'Connor.

Sinead does not do "ordinary" . Another masterpiece

You just made me write, again...thank you. One Love.

I'm obsessed with this song! I don't think I've ever heard a song that I can relate to more. Sinead is too intelligent, hyper aware of what's wrong with the world. She's a brilliant philosopher. Her views on religion are spot on. I'm glad to see her looking happy and healthy again!

I love this woman..since her first album..And i love is strangeness.. This song talks to me, since i do also feel that i'm from a different time and space, and feel uncomfortable in this world, like a stranger, since my childhood..and now that i'm retired, i live almost recluse. I didn't have 8 reasons, but just one, not to give up, never.

this song is so beautifully moving, tragic yet full of hope. My interpretation of the video: the black man she nodded to - also in clerical dress, represents another survivor of depression. They exchanged something so simple yet so important. Sinead is a national treasure, other worldly & this song is beautiful.

Life is not sweet, not interesting. For something/ someone we treasure we walk on hard. Step by step. Love Sinead!

Today this song resonates and explodes. Such a direct statement, and we are now here without her. Don't say she didn't warn us. Bless you, beloved one!

I am listening to this song several times a day at the moment. And I love the video too. I want to keep her close, but I understand.

This song is heartbreaking 💔

Rest in peace ❤ Thanks for this gem of a song!

This song is so sweet and has a nice vibe love this ! ❤

God bless you warrior woman. Rest in eternal peace~

This song saved me rip beautiful sinead sleep well with shane the light off your life

Miss this side of you, Sinead. You are and always will be a massive inspiration to your kindred spirits. Love always.

I can't stop playing this song. I've come back to it over and over, sobbing the whole time. I'm looking so hard for those eight good reasons, or maybe nine, for myself. Searching every day.

Oh, man...it feels SO GOOD to see her smile, and hear her embracing whatever good is left in this crazy world. I've been inspired by her courage to use her voice and her celebrity to speak out against her abusers (priests/pope and everyone who turned a blind eye to the sexual, mental, spiritual, social, abuse that was/is perpetrated by clergy, and other corrupt authority figures) and to speak out against systemic racism and the abuse of People of Color by law enforcement officers all over the world. She's been mistreated, gaslit, alienated, misrepresented, targeted, and been subjected to terrible treatment by her own family. She is strong, and she has assumed the role of advocate and ally to all who are victims of injustice. She's a true warrior out in the world defending you, me, POC, Herself, and every marginalized person, who struggles to find people who will stand with them through the uncertain times, even when it doesn't seem safe, or if you have been ostracized by your community. I love her now and forever!

I feel her so much in this song...if only I could cry..void inside and sadness. Hope she's resting in peace 🕊️

❤🥲🙏🏽 Just now discovering her music of the later years. Don’t understand how it all didn’t reach the world and put her back on top… it’s enough to kill anyone! Always loved her, wish I’d stayed close, so sorry I didn’t stay devoted to your incredible artistry and activism Sinead! Forever grateful to you, you are changing my life right now.❤🙏🏽💔❤️‍🩹♥️

She is channeling some Tupac in this... Beautiful

Rest in love Sinéad. Thank you for hearing me🌠

If I could have gone Without it hurting anyone Like a child I would have found me mum Like a bird I would have been flown 💔

RIP Sinèad. You were my inpiration since I heard you for the first time.

She's so loved. I pray for her a lot, after her loss of her son it does a heart that cares really good to see a smile across her face... ♥️ Be safe today

I just can't get this out of my head. Brilliant. Relevant. Revolutionary. God bless Sinead.

Tears in my eyes... It's so sad to know what I know now about this human being now that she's gone. Too late for it. I have always liked Nothing compares 2 U but didn't really know much about her then. 🙁

Blessed are the meek ............... If only she really knew how upset we would all be without her 😓

Sinead, if you ever should read this, I have bipolar disorder myself and I admire you so much not just for your music but also for the raw, honest videos you've posted online. Feeling suicidal is a terrible feeling, you are an amazing person, God bless you.

Am heartbroken she is gone but hope so much she is at peace forever. Brilliant, clever, funny and so talented. Came back this morning to hear this song, one of many that I loved. Thank you for everything lovely you …

I have no words. I love you❤️ RIP beautiful

🎧🎵🎶 Thank you, Namaste❤

I don't know what it is, the lyrics in this song are pretty optimistic, but when I listen to the beautiful song it brings tears to my eyes.

JESUS!!!! AMAZIN!!!!!

masterpiece. Love it ❤

Wow. This song paired with the video are absolutely powerful and moving. Literally brought tears to my eyes. The lyrics are amazing! Such a positive song! Anyone who dislikes this song seriously has something mentally wrong with them and I would never want to befriend them.

Sinead looks absolutely stunning in this beautifully shot video

Rest in power sweet lady! Your talent and light will be missed in this sad, angry world. I'm singing this song for my sister Sinead Concerning the god awful mess that she made She told them her truth just as hard as she could Her message profoundly was misunderstood There's humans entrusted with guarding our gold And humans in charge of the saving of souls And humans responded all over the world Condemning that bald headed brave little girl And maybe she's crazy and maybe she ain't But so was Picasso and so were the saints And she's never been partial to shackles or chains She's too old for breaking and too young to tame It's askin' for trouble to stick out your neck In terms of a target a big silhouette But some candles flicker and some candles fade And some burn as true as my sister Sinead - Kris Kristofferson, "Sister Sinead"

Thank you, Sínead. You are an important piece in so many lives.

The woman has balls, I hope she sticks around. I like the song.

1st - I've been following S'O since 'Lion and the Cobra Album' one of my greatest artist in trending music , but she also experiment in folk music, in heart and soul ... bizzness is what screwed up her emotional side added to own family problems... we tend to forget that she is just like us .... normal with up and down, she fought mostly against depression and bi-polarity... ain't easy ! I know, been there myself ... but we forget ... look up her 'Behind the scene" interview. 2nd she writes what she feels .. Sinead .. you got one of the most beautiful soul I wished I'd met before my end. 3rd. with that awesome voice she was/is able to play with quite a few different styles, and you can find yourselves in her words at all times , she is my music Diva. Take great care you Sinead a lot of peoples holds you tight in our hearts, we love you girl !

My best friend's husband is in surgery right now; cancer. HE JUST "got over" Covid. They haven't vaccinated my friend, even though she's got 100 good reasons & is s therapist & a front line worker at home & out here. I'm on the ☎ all day with her & sending her your 🎶. ❤ Thank you, sweetheart. YOU, be as well as you can be, PLEASE. We need you. Sorry. Love is a burden, but you know that.💘

Sinead died of a Broken Heart.

She looks happy. Its in her eyes.

Rest easy now Angel. 🕊️

Awsome. I saw her in concert a couple of times.. the hairs on the back of my neck stood up! She was awsome.. her voice and presence...

Thanks Sinead for this 8 good reasons. I have millions reasons myself to follow you, always. You are a Beautiful and real and great and strong and generous and simple artist.

🇨🇮⚘l.Irlande en deuil pour dolores ...the cramberries mais sinead o' connor reste pour moi la plus belle voix de tout les temps !!!!!🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🔥

Sinead is wise beyond her years (and everyone else's)

This is a stunning song. The song of the year if the truth be told. You can sense her frustrations, pain, rage but at the same time the good things about being Sinead that make her carry on. All put to great music. What a track. What an artist.

Anybody else notice the "Shadow" moment?... that's what made her smile.

черт возьми, это печально, прекрасно и гениально.. я завидую девочкам, которые обнимали Её..

At least Sinead had 8-9 good reasons to hang around, not everyone has the love they need, some people only have themselves to live for.

I just discovered Sinead. This felt like a big warm hug for my broken heart... Thanks. 🌸

This lady is my life inspiration and this music makes me alive ❤🙌

RIP beautiful Sinead, I hope you find peace

I hope you realise your reason number 9 and smile. Blessed by Grace you are. 🙏☮️❤️

No more pain. Rest in peace .

You'll be forever missed 😢

sinead... you've no idea what you've given to us. thank you for your sacrifices.
