    I may be investigating the unexpected death of Sinead, as I have done with Doddy and Dame Edna – if grief is found to be a contributing factor I may keep my investigations private. The BBC reported her age as relatively young !
    The death of an artist is always sad and being a public figure brings pressures to bear.
    RIP.

    O’Connor, also known as Shuhada Sadaqat, was buried in her hometown in Ireland yesterday, in a private funeral procession led by the country’s leading Imam

    Sad as it is, the tributes and lines of people paying respects are all in recognition of what she did in life and how she excelled and changed mindsets. It alters little in reality. I await the autopsy report which will take weeks but I have come to my own conclusions. Her son committed suicide. One person’s actions in life can affect others.

    I too have suspicions about the cause of her death Gamble. Whatever
    it turns out to be it’s such a tragedy to an exceptionally talented
    woman. I believe it was Bob Geldorf, who was at the funeral and knew
    her well, that implied she had a great deal of turmoil in he life.
    I hope she is at peace now.
    RIP

    I believe she left us the same way her son did

    When she first came into the musical system I was lucky to see one of her first shows in London.
    Sad indeed.
    Folks should not underestimate the stress, pressures and the loneliness that come with the lifestyle in that industry..

    She could still knock out a good tune in the latter half of her career:

    And this one:

    One of a kind and a proper artist.

    For anyone ever feeling a bit fragile I would suggest Sinead’s gift “This is to mother you” – video and Top of the Pops. I’ll certainly be making a detour to Parc de Saint Cloud in her memory should I ever be visiting the local hippodrome again.
