An anonymous guest scolding logged-in members about how they describe a tragic situation is more than enough said already.

For many readers who have mourned the loss of other famous musicians, this was open code for "she didn't accidentally overdose or die by suicide," which is better news than the opposite which is sadly too common.

Archive On 4 - Sinéad O'Connor - A Life in Ten Songs

To commemorate the one year anniversary of Sinéad O'Connor's death, Jo Whiley looks back at her music and legacy through ten of her most personal and inspiring tracks, from her debut single Troy in 1987 to Trouble of The World in 2020.

Jo first interviewed Sinéad in the late 80s for a BBC Radio 4 schools programme and their paths would cross multiple times on Channel 4, Radio 1 and Radio 2. Using archive interviews from across the decades, in addition to new insight from collaborators, friends and admirers, we shine a light on Sinéad's often overlooked talent for writing politically-engaged, deeply spiritual and healing songs which reveal crucial messages for our time.
