About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
THE LANDMARK MEMOIR OF A GLOBAL MUSIC ICON
SHORTLISTED FOR THE IRISH BOOK AWARDS 2021
Sinéad O'Connor's voice and trademark shaved head made her famous by the age of twenty-one. Her recording of Prince's 'Nothing Compares 2 U' made her a global icon. She outraged millions when she tore up a photograph of Pope John Paul II on American television.
O'Connor was unapologetic and impossible to ignore, calling out hypocrisy wherever she saw it. She remained that way for over three decades.
In her acclaimed No 1 bestselling memoir Rememberings, O'Connor told her story - the heartache of growing up in a family falling apart; her early forays into the Dublin music scene; her adventures and misadventures in the world of sex, drugs and rock'n'roll; the fulfilment of being a mother; her ongoing spiritual quest - and through it all, her abiding passion for music.
Rememberings is intimate, replete with candid anecdotes and full of hard-won insights. It is a unique and remarkable chronicle by a unique and remarkable artist.

Illuminating
WOW! What a force. She has the rawness of a wild animal and endless passion and empathy for the broken. I was a fan before because I loved her voice. I am a bigger fan now because I love her soul.

Thank you
What a truly beautiful woman in every way. Her music has moved, soothed and uplifted me for what seems like forever. Wonderful to hear the inspiration and interpretation of her songs. I hope she receives all the love and peace she deserves.

Tragic beautiful
Such a great memoir so beautifully written and told. Whenever she told the story behind the song I'd stop the book and listen on Spotify. I loved hearing these songs I grew up with again and some is never heard.
So awful to hear about the loss of her son Shane which was so recent and well after publication.

An amazing read
I was locked in and intrigued by Sinead's story from start to end. Her vulnerability is to be greatly admired. I now have a renewed respect and admiration for her and her music. I wish her much success with her future endeavours.

The most real thing I've listened to in a long time. Sinead has lived so many lives, and her stories made my heart both cry and sing. Thank you Sinead for sharing it with the world.

Incredible
I loved this so much. Sinead’s honesty of her rememberings shows many personal experiences, I cried, I laughed, I felt amazed, and heartbroken for Sinead all at once. It’s so thought provoking too. I can’t stop thinking about it all, Thank you for sharing it with the world.

Authentic
Her style and narration sounds a lot like a conversation with an old and dear friend. So much authenticity, truth and humour in her story. What an inspiring and beautiful human.

Remembering Sinead
I did not know much about Sinead O’Connor but felt compelled to listen following her death. I highly recommend and can say what a sad loss for her family. She had quite the gift, the quirks, and spoke her mind. Thank you Sinead. May you rest in peace x

Sinéad forever 🖤
Loved it. So funny in parts. Only the Irish would refer to Prince as old fluffy cuffs. Very congenial. No complex analysis or detailed accounts of anything just a well rounded account of her life.
