Remembering Sinéad O’Connor

Sir, – Sinéad O’Connor’s rendition of Báidín Fheilimí was surrealism at its best, recorded at a time when other Irish luminaries of the musical world shunned the Irish language. May her fragile boat sail safely to the far shore. – Yours, etc,

Sir, – Sinead was an incredibly brave, strong, passionate, empathetic human who advocated fiercely for so many, and she also happened to be a phenomenally talented musician.

Rest in peace. – Yours, etc,
