Nothing Compares 2 U

Sinead O'Connor

EP 0421990▶ Official video
Nothing Compares 2 U by Sinead O'Connor - Behind The Song

Nothing Compares 2 U almost belonged to someone else entirely. Prince wrote it, buried it on a flop album in 1985, and moved on. Sinead O'Connor found it years later and turned one unbroken take - and one real tear - into a chart-topper that outlived the original by decades. Did you know the crying in that video wasn't staged? Save this for later.
