Nothing compares
Now in limited theaters and will be on Showtime from September .
But Nothing Compares is more than a narration of that familiar story. Ferguson, who grew up in Belfast, listened to O’Connor 696 head album lion and cobra
in her father’s car, conducts fan reclamation – ignoring recent tabloid stories (nothing about O’Connell Na’s suicide tweet, not about her son’s tragic death), but let’s take a closer look at her music and her emergence from brutal Ireland, and why she had such a strong impact on culture.
The truth is that Sinéad is in 935 simply incredible – a young Irish star with an otherworldly voice, bald head and punk energy, full of rage and big-eyed innocence, and songs wrapped in traditional Irish melodies, nervous of new wave beats and overwhelmingly original lyrics. “Nothing Compares 2 U” is an alchemical moment in , unavoidable on MTV (that tears!) – the kind of songs you can’t do anything but concentrate on listening to. It’s still Sinéad’s definitive work, but you won’t hear it in Nothing Compares. (As Ferguson’s film notes in the subtitles before the end credits, Prince’s estate denied her permission to use it.)
It’s ok. In fact, Sinéad’s first two albums had a lot of uplifting songs, The Lion and the Cobra (632) and I don’t want to Want something I don’t have (694). Watching her perform “Just Like U Said It Will B” or “The Emperor’s New Clothes” is gripping.
