Hardly shocking given her years of mental health struggles, including a disappearance a few years back. Iirc, she was found driving up and down a bike trail in Illinois, looking for Billy Corgan's house. It was actually right near the house of someone I know.
Sinéad O'Connor, Fiery and Uncompromising Singer, Dead at 56
Sinéad O'Connor, the fiery Irish singer whose striking voice briefly made her an unlikely pop superstar in the early ‘90s, has died at the age of 56.www.rollingstone.com
I will say I'm a little annoyed with how much reaction I've seen on social media compared to when Dolores O'Riordan died. As far as Irish singers with questionable politics go, I far prefer O'Riordan/The Cranberries.
But I guess the outpouring may speak to what you were saying about "Nothing Compares 2 U" being an anthem.
I recently checked out their final album, In the End. It was made using O'Riordan's demos. They were just her singing over backing chords, but the band fleshed out the arrangements. You would never know. The vocal performances are that good. I was very pleasantly surprised by the album overall. A lot of posthumous material should never be released.I will say I'm a little annoyed with how much reaction I've seen on social media compared to when Dolores O'Riordan died.

Great point.
Damn I loved The Cranberries. Linger is a classic of course but my favorite is probably Free to Decide.
