Tribal People React to Sinéad O'Connor Nothing Compares 2 U 

I am a Christian and I so very much appreciated your gentle care and stopping to pray for her. God be with you.

All of these men seem to be such gentle souls. Their understanding of not only the lyrics but the expression is amazing to see. Glad to see Abdul still here with us. Love you all very much ❤

Thank you for the respect you showed to Sinead O'Connor. She's worthy of love and respect. A brave woman. A warrior who was ahead of her time. Thank you for praying for her. I'm a better person for having watched this.

A child who isn’t valued, her face tells such things! He doesn’t just look like a wise old man . The good side of you tube. Sinead brought me here and I’m glad she did. I’m Irish and sinead is and will always be one of Ireland’s Crown Jewels

She's my Family member and I have to say thank you, I would never thought you would do a tutorial on her. I've been watching you guys for many many years . I have to say thank you. Keep up the great work

Abdul is so compassionate and insightful and never ceases to amaze me. He watches every video so intensely and takes it all in. All these men feel the music they hear their hearts without understanding the language but Abdul has a wisdom that comes from life experiences and age. I pray he will get better every day and be able to do some of the things he misses and be free of his pain! I would love to see him react to Yusuf Islam (formerly Cat Stevens) Father and Son. I'd love to hear his thoughts on that beautiful song.

I don't know why my eyes are full of tears....when she started her career I was living in India and not interested in western music... I am knowing her through your eyes... understanding and compassion of her Thank you so much 🙏💖

Immediate tears when you guys prayed for her. You are so kind. Edited to add... Her beautiful, intense, vulnerable face made me cry again. Trauma blunts and robs the world of so much talent.

“All the flowers that you planted , momma, in the backyard , all died…”. She said she was singing to her mother who died and who was extremely abusive to her as a child, but whom she deeply loved still.

the part where that lovely soul prayed for sinead broke me... the love you surrounded her with was so beautiful.. her soul deserves the prayers of the pure hearted believers. that honour was very profound

I think it is so encouraging for the next generations that you are all willing to talk so openly about hopes, feelings and fears. I wish you all the best, and especially for Uncle Abdul, good health.

Bless you for doing this! This is the first time I've been able to listen to this song since she died. I thought it would be too hard, but sharing it with you guys experiencing it for the first time has made it special and less painful.

I love have you have evolved the format from just people reacting to youtube videos to people baring their souls and how music no matter what language can stir such emotions.

20:35 I pray the pain leaves him soon too, so he can get up and work or just do what makes him happy and brings him joy. He’s my favorite and I wish him all the pain free days and minutes for the rest of his life!

Many of us still love and care about people that we have been abused by. Many of us are still loved and cared about by those we have abused. Being a human ain't easy. I've learned that it's easier to forgive others than to forgive ourselves.

She was an Old, or Mature soul living in a world ruled by Infant , Baby , and Youth soul ages. She was a pioneer of self care ,inner child health. Rip Sweet, lady. You are a hero.

Thank you so very much for sharing the musical artistry of the precious, recently departed, Sinead O'Connor. May she forever rest in peace 🕊️.

"It's music tells of a child who isn't valued" First take he gets it 🙏🏼❤️

Sinead's video always brings tears to this old hippy's eyes, but so did you guys with your interpretations of her body language. Bless you all. Love Light & Music.

She wore her hair so short so that people would not focus on her beauty but on her music. Great video gentlemen.😊

Mr. Abdul is so great at interpreting the unspoken feelings on her face. Respect from Texas 😊

I have watched a few videos on people reacting to this song since she died. This is, by far, the best reaction. She was one of the singers who got me through my teenage years. After she ripped the picture of the Pope on SNL, she became someone I looked up to. I love that you prayed for her, and I love the kindness and insight you shared while watching. This was beautiful. Thank you.

Thank you all for doing this and sharing with us! I was raised by an Irish Catholic family full of abuse, like Sinéad and her music has been so important to my life and my soul and healing. To hear these men react and respect and fully understand her without ever knowing a single word of the lyric until they are translated is beautiful beyond words and to me, is a very deeply holy experience. We are all humans, we are all connected, we are all meant to love and care for each other. Please please share with the group that this woman from America who has never met them, cares for and respects and loves them, too. I’m absolutely blessed to know them through this work. ♥️♥️♥️ Much love and prayers and respect from me, in Florida USA.

His song wishing to return to a better time is beautiful.

Hearing Mr. Abdul Aziz Rind Baloch recite a song, may I suggest you turn things around at some occasion, and ask your guests to present and talk about a meaningful song of their own language that has touched them, for any specific reason, so we can learn about it too? Thanks, wish you all good health, kind greetings from the Netherlands.

This is a beautiful illustration that no matter our cultures - human emotions are universal. They all GOT the feeling. It was palpable. I cried through the whole thing, sadness for the great loss of this amazing woman and happiness seeing new people learn of her and her brilliance.

It is my first visit to your channel, and i would like to thankyou for the respectful gravity, compassionate spiritual and engaged attention, and thorough concern in looking at so many aspects of this performance. I always loved this song, but i did not know Sineads life history. I lost my first partner to suicide, 29 years ago, and tears poured down my face listening to this video, realising some of the pain she must have been experiencing, and remembering my own. I especially thankyou for starting with the grace of the prayer for departed souls. Thankyou, from Australia.

Beautiful souls listening to a beautiful soul. RIP Sinead. You were too gentle for this world. 💔

This song always gets me... For all of you to show so much respect to her legacy was so heartwarming...thank you.

She does a beautiful live version of Mother by Pink Floyd with them The Wall live in Berlin 91 , well worth watching. She had an angelic voice. RIP Sinead.

Sinade's talent is her ability to be fearless in her music, her ability to sing with honest emotion, her ability to be vulnerable and still strong, of course her voice is stunning but the ways she uses it is special. This song speaks of pain, sadness and acceptance. The source of those feelings is different for each listener but the pain is the same. Thank all of you for sharing your thoughts and taking the time to listen ❤

My daughter was not even 1years old when this song came out. She would stare at the tv when this song came on and when she used her walker she would sit right in front and watch her face. Its a beautiful yet incredibly sad song.

Thank you for including the session in the beginning, explaining to the men that the song was originally written and performed by Prince, but the cover by Sinead O'Connor was far more famous. And thank you also for including background information about O'Connor's life, including the very respectful way that you presented her death. Even people in English-speaking countries often forget these details about this song and the performer.

You should listen to her singing "the foggy dew" a song about a group of Irish rebels who rose up against british rule in her homeland of irleand in easter 1916 which is still celebrated every yr at easter in Ireland.. she sings it so beautifully and powerful, i would love to see what you think of it ❤ from Ireland 🇮🇪. 😊 blessings and peace ❤

I cried too, I love this song, love the beautiful reactions ❤️

Another really impressive Sinead song is Fire on Babylon. She wrote it herself, it's very illustrative of her relationship with her mother, Catholicism and the abuse she suffered, and her vocal range is amazing.

I love this cross cultural exploration! Brilliant idea, content, editing and setting. So wonderful to read the translation and hear the language.❤

I haven't watched this channel in a while. I'm loving the studio and seeing everyone on camera in a much richer environment. It's great to see Adnan interviewing everyone on camera. We mostly heard his voice before...this is much better. I'm sorry to hear from other comments that Abdul hasn't been well. It's good that he feels well enough to do this video. He always has such wonderful insights into the deeper meaning of things.

Let us take a moment of silence and remember Prince and Sinead. TY you both for being you. ❤❤❤

My wife died for a few days ago... I cried my heart out

Sinead infuses this song with a whole other meaning and power, one I much prefer to what Prince could have given it with his maid blues. Much like Johnny Cash's rendering of 'Hurt' by Nine Inch Nails, this song became hers the moment she sang it.

I had just asked for this song and imagine my happiness when I see the upload today! Wow wow! I’m really delighted to see the reaction and the raw emotion was felt by each end every person watching. And for Chacha to also share his beautiful though melancholic song lyrics. I felt honoured and it is a very human problem and condition to lament the past and hope for the strength to come back as we get older, no matter what age we are. I’m glad to have seen the reaction and I’ve signed up to your Patreon in hopes of helping you in any small way I can to continue such honourable and valuable work. Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart. To you and to all the beautiful souls who react with you. They are treasured by this person from Ireland tonight. I’m sitting in Ireland looking up at the same moon and stars and wishing you all the best and good health ❤❤ Thank you so very much ❤❤

Sinead O'Connor would have loved this video.

People got mad about her tearing up a picture of the Pope but today they would agree with her. I did not know she had died and had a Muslim funeral since she was Irish that's a surprise.

She was not just a musical package and commercialized… She had a deep feeling and expression for humanity…. A visionary…

I truly feel your videos are a message to the world to appreciate each other’s differences and similarities. This is my favorite channel to receive tears of joy. Much love.

Before we even start the song, I am so moved that they prayed for her.

The way you paid respect to Sinéad's soul by praying really moved me. Even if I'm not a religious person I admire your heartfelt and collected homage. This song was actually recorded and released by one of many Prince side projects named The Family (nowadays fDeluxe) before Sinéad O'Connor covered it. Here's a version they recorded with a strings ensemble seven hours and thirteen days after Prince's passing in 2016 : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-O9OK6CPbJec.html I also recommend you another Prince song that is sorrowful and got a very peculiar new meaning : Sometimes it snows in April. This song has been recorded on April 21, 1985, exactly 31 years before Prince's death. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ikZgBhSMSUM.html

This is a beautiful tribute........whatever our pain or suffering....whatever we believe in spiritually......music cleans the heart and soul

Ríaz taking time to pray for her makes my soul feel warm ☺️ 3:54

Thank you for praying for Sinead. I remember listening to this song after leaving my mom for similar reasons at 15. It was a hard time in my life and I missed her so much. This song came out around that time and I would go in the closet listening to it on replay. My mom passed in 2017, and I feel like that girl all over again when I hear this song. I also think of my daughter that I lost too. I'm glad she is with her son again.

I saw an interview where Sinead said that she thought of her mother when she sang this song. So the first gentleman who spoke was actually correct.

I recently discovered this channel and love it! Being from the Netherlands and having travelled around the world a lot in my past, this brings me back to cultures i have experienced during those trips. People from a totally different cultural, economic, and religious background that have often touched me with their wisdom. Western world people often think they already know everything there is to learn about life. But when you look and listen to the way these people review whatever is served to them, it should become clear there is a deep inner wisdom in these tribal people from which there is much to learn by us in the so called “modern world”.

Thanks for sharing! It's fascinating to watch how people of different cultures interpret songs! Especially, elders.❤

Rest easy Sinéad and Shane🌹

Abdul says this is a song about a child treated badly -- you can see it in her face and in her manner. It is absolutely true that Ms. O'Connor was severely abused by her mother. This haunted her her whole life. May she rest in peace.

Wow! First time watching thank you I am subscribing. This is the best tribute I have seen she was a very unique artist and she was a true humanitarian.she seems to have suffered much, still managed to give pure beauty to the world.I am grateful to all of you for recognizing Sinead in such a thoughtful and appreciative way. I was very moved by your comments. .

The song that the elderly gentleman starts to sing at around 19:50 shows that he understood the sadness of this English language song based on your translations. Even though it is very likely he is one of the individuals in the group who might not know how to read, his wisdom and years of experience allowed him to make the connections.

The greatest appreciation to Abdul and everyone here. 🙏

I just happened on this and found it very beautiful. Their empathy with the emotions Sinead was expressing and the way they immediately prayed for the repose of her soul. Very moving.

I understand Abdul's and his son's feelings. My father used to be a strong, active man, but Parkinson's and age has left him weak and unable to do most to the things that he used to. It's hard.

Thank you for Praying for Sweet Sineads' Soul. She would have really appreciate that🕊️ 🌏❤️

I can't recall his name, but the man in the turban when singing. It sounds a lot like my grandfather singing me a lullaby in German before bed.

Thank you very much for praying for Sinéad 🌹💞

Forget Prince and the maid. Sinead sang the song and gave it meaning of her own. She didn't really know Prince at all and she certainly wasn't singing for a maid that she never met.

I have always loved this song. It gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.

Abdul's songs are like the blues: hard truths that everyone knows about.

I love that you prayed for her. This is great content! Im sending love and respect from Birmingham, Alabama, USA. ❤

I found this video profoundly touching. How beautiful when we reach across cultures. It makes my heart sing.

I have to say, I didn’t know much about her personal life until I heard you explain it to the gentlemen. That makes the song so much deeper and more powerful! Thank you for teaching me something new too 😊

gotta love all the patterns on the signs and all the things in the back showing off their culture

They discuss this with perfect sensitivity. ❤

Bless u for praying for sineads soul she wil never be forgotten the best singer from ireland on all levels plus she had a deep soul.and never sold out her talent.❤.i love her to the moon

You know these tribal men are such genuine souls the emotional look on their faces is really very touching it reall goes to show no matter how your dressed or what your religious beliefs are the kind ness of these dear men shines through i have seen a couple of these videos and iam allways impressed with their gentleness of talking about this very different form of music i bet if they play their traditional music and instruments would be pretty impressive thats why i love the sound of the call of prayer sung in arabic they put so much heart into it even though iam not keen at all on the muslim tradition and religioun allthough i think these men look amazing in their traditional dress but then the same goes for christian tradition and their practices or religioun but i like the singing and the rosery as well but iam a universal person each to their own and the wall cloths hangings are wonderfull no doubt all hand woven hopefully yes these old guys are beautiful human beings thankyou for these very interesting views on a western music traditions and songs by wonderfull artists wow i love listening to how theyr interpretations and explanations are talked about but what happened to that lovely lady she was also very interesting i hope she wasnt taken off the show or out of the conversation that would be a shame iam a woman and most interesting in how she interpretated the music i hope she comes back on it’s important that we experience both men and womans views thankyou 🌹☮️💟☪️🩷

I have seen a lot of people call this a cover song. It isn't a cover. Yes,Prince wrote it ..but it would only be a cover if he recorded it first. Which he didn't. He wrote it specifically for her to record. And didn't do his own version until 20 years afterwards

This isn’t where I expected to spend 25mins of my evening, but I am glad I did. I found it so touching, and the insights and understanding of those men whose lives are so far away from Sinead’s were so interesting. Their reaction to the tears is beautiful. I have subscribed and will watch more. This is such an unexpected delight, and I think poor Sinead would have approved. Not sure about Prince’s maid though.

Beloved Sinead. ❤

Sinead OConner has amazing vocal control. She is able to create depth and subtlety in layers. She truly understood music in a way I think few people did.

20:00 That was incredible beautiful by Chacha!

You channel has been showing up in my recommended to watch. I regret not watching your reactions up to now. What a beautiful reaction. So much love is expressed by all of you. I am glad I watched this. Thank you for your love. May you continue to be blessed, and don't stop sharing these reactions. It was like a balsam to my heart.

These men are such beautiful souls, all of them. Such good, genuine, loving energy ❤

One who is sound of mind and can write these moving lyrics, is one who is blessed. Thank you for singing these words.

These men are so heartwarming ❤ and non judgemental of her. Real class. And to pray for her soul 😊

Did you explain to him that the reason she cut her hair off with because she wanted to be seen for more than her physical beauty? Fact that so many men find this baffling shows that we have a long way to go. Not every woman to find her worth on whether or not, she looks appealing to a man.

What gentle compassionate people. I was moved to tears by their prayer, and that that was their response to her struggles. RIP, Sinead. Thank you for the music. The song and performance are so good it's nearly shocking.

Beautiful

i love the background information you bring doing research on the song. I learned some things! Thank you

This song is very dear to me because my husband used to sing it to me when we started dating...We got married in 1996 ❤❤

love this ...great interpretations & understanding by these gentlemen ..love & respect...sinead also covered the foggy dew ...about the easter rising a rebellion against the occupying british in 1916

I had to wait to watch this until I had some time. I knew it would be difficult. She tried to speak for those who could not speak for themselves and was made a villain. In time, she was proven right. I'm glad to see she is finally getting the respect she deserved in life and I'm so glad to see you all praying for her and respecting her in spirit. It brought tears to my eyes to see you praying for someone you didn't even know...praying for her peace

Funny that the hair is confusing to them to see if she’s a man or a woman. Don’t most men and women in their country keep their hair covered? All the people in the interviews do, so that’s an interesting take to me. She looks extremely feminine to me, but it’s interesting that they don’t think so. No judgement, I just found that really interesting.

Thank you for the prayer for this wonderful lady.

I truly enjoyed this talk about the beautiful Sinead snd her musical talent.. loved hearing the elders opinions and analysis.. she sung from the depths of her soul. This was and still is my favourite song of all time, as I was going through heartache when it came out. I am Irish but UK born.. Fly free Sinead, we will remember you forever❤.

The song she is singing was actually written by the artist Prince. If you guys haven't reacted to Prince you should. He was almost as big as Michael Jackson and they even had a little rivalry where Michael Jackson called him on stage to perform during an awards show. There are plenty of clips on RU-vid

They might not have cried, but i was a teen so this made me cry. We slow danced in the cafeteria to this song!! Genertional touch stone. Thanks for examining it. ❤

I like Abdul, he is always closer to the meaning of things. All the gents are fabulous however. God Bless us all.

This channel is one of the best things on RU-vid! Pure enjoyment watching this and sometimes tears. Thank you!

So proud to be irish and have her as one of us.i adored her..❤

I believe that sometimes an abusive parent will be corrected by God, and when they become very old and dying, even an abused child with a compassionate heart like our dearest God of Abraham, will feel a great loss of their parent and tears for their pain and the loss of them

Your explanation of Sinead's life and her recording of Prince's song at the beginning was just perfect.
